Top Downtown Akron Hotel Reviews

Comfort Inn & Suites Cuyahoga Falls - Akron

10/10 Excellent

"The looks like it needs remodeling. Floors were lifting and other stuff"

Comfort Inn & Suites Akron South

8/10 Good

"The pool was smaller than expected, but warm and relaxing regardless. The space is well-kept, and staff were friendly and professional. After a group of teenage athletes cleaned out the breakfast area, food was quickly replenished. My room was very clean, but I have two small complaints - the refrigerator in the room kept making weird sounds, and my door was slightly jammed and I had to push and pull extra hard to make sure it was closed."

Best Western Plus North Canton Inn & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"We had one issue and the staff fixed it immediately for us by moving us to another room. The staff was great from check in, our interaction with the manager, the staff responsible for the good food at breakfast, and the staff member who checked us out. They were all great. The hotel itself was very nice. We would definitely stay here again if we were in the area."

Econo Lodge Cleveland Southeast - Kent

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is an excellent value for the money. While carpets in the hallway are old and show wear it was clean. The room was spotless with new floors. The person on staff when I arrived Friday was extremely professional, personable and friendly. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again."
