Top The Arboretum at Penn State Hotel Reviews

The Penn Stater Hotel and Conference Center

8/10 Good

"The Penn Stater is always a great place to stay. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the service was very responsive. We requested a cot, and it was delivered to our room right away, which we really appreciated. My only disappointment was at checkout. We asked for just a 30-minute extension, but were told they were expecting a large conference group and could not accommodate the request. I completely understand that they needed to prepare for incoming guests, but considering we were only asking for an additional 30 minutes, I was disappointed that there wasn’t a little more flexibility."

Comfort Suites State College near Penn State

10/10 Excellent

"The staff really take great care of the property and the guests. Great stay — highly recommend!"

Hotel State College

8/10 Good

"The property and staff were amazing. The influence from being above a club with music is less than ideal. The thumping of the bass kept me up for a bit, be aware of this especially if you plan on visiting on a weekend."

Days Inn by Wyndham Penn State

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice and clean hotel. Convenient location and friendly staff members. Thank you."

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, State College (Penn State Area), PA

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was amazing - super helpful and friendly - management should notice! Hotel is very clean. Breakfast included eggs, sausage, oatmeal, lots of other stuff. Peanut butter cookies"

Sleep Inn State College near Penn State

10/10 Excellent

"Great location. Walking distance to campus. Clean room, good price, decent breakfast and friendly staff."

Adorable 3 Bedroom Walking Distance to Stadium & Campus

10/10 Excellent

"We can’t say enough about this property. It’s quiet, clean, pet friendly, and keeps us coming back as repeat guests - 4 yrs now! It has everything you could need for a game day weekend, or just a weekend in Happy Valley."

PSU 4BR/2Full Bath Home 1/4 Mile Walk to Campus, .7 miles to Beaver Stadium

10/10 Excellent

"Found this gem fairly late in the process for football/tailgate weekend. It is a lovely, clean home with lots of recent upgrades, including new mattresses and pillows. It is tastefully decorated and was very comfortable for our group of 6 adults and 2 kids. It’s in a lovely quiet tree-lined neighborhood close to the west end of campus. And the backyard is awesome - we wish our stay had been longer to take advantage of it more. Oh, and the very gracious host provided hospitality baskets, water bottles and boxes of tissues in the bedrooms as well as the living room. We’re already planning our next visit and only hope that word about this one doesn’t get out so much that it gets booked out months in advance!"
