Top Downtown Lawrence Hotel Reviews

StoneHill Lawrence, Trademark Collection by Wyndham

10/10 Excellent

"Rooms are always clean, beds are comfy, we have used the bar and outside patio area. And enjoy the breakfast in the morning. The breakfast is not sit down restaurant style of breakfast , which we didn’t expect it to be, but it gets the job done and they always have a few good options. We have stayed there over a handful of times when we come to Lawrence to visit our son in college."

Perfect location! Cozy 2-bdrm condo w/ ample living space right off of Mass St

10/10 Excellent

"Condo was very clean and had everything we needed. Host was very helpful and responsive both before and during our stay. Location was perfect and within a few minutes walk of restaurants and shops. There’s a farmer’s market every Saturday in the lot next to the building and you can find all kinds of great local foods/items! We’ll definitely book this property again for our next trip to Lawrence."
