Top Akron Fossils & Science Center Hotel Reviews

Spark by Hilton Akron Fairlawn

8/10 Good

"Even though we had some problems settling in the room, the manager, Valentina, worked above and beyond her duty to make us satisfied customers."

Comfort Inn & Suites Akron South

8/10 Good

"The room was very clean. The staff were super helpful and nice. The only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 was both the bed and the couch were very firm and uncomfortable."

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."

Kent State University Hotel and Conference Center

8/10 Good

"Great location. Under renovation, but still clean and comfortable. Must-see May 4 Memorial at Kent State University was powerful, and within walking distance."

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."

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Cleveland Macedonia

10/10 Excellent

"Pretty decent hotel. Clean room and beds. All staff were friendly and breakfast was good."

Embassy Suites by Hilton Akron Canton Airport

8/10 Good

"I about panicked when, while I was checking in, the man behind the desk said, "I don't find a reservation for you." Then he said, "Oh, I am on the wrong page." (Whew!) When I got to my room on the 6th floor, my key didn't work, so I had to carry my luggage back down to the desk to had new key cards made. When i got into the room, I discovered that one of the two lights on the bedroom wall was not working; I reported it the next morning and it was repaired while I was out that day. To be candid, I expect better from the Hilton brand. The breakfasts in the morning, however, were quite tasty and more than filling!"

Courtyard by Marriott Akron Stow

8/10 Good

"The food at bistro is very good!"

Quality Inn & Suites Medina - Akron West
