Top Hardin Ridge Recreation Area Hotel Reviews

Super 8 by Wyndham Bedford

8/10 Good

"Very short time there but room was clean. Could not get our AC unit to turn on so slept with the window open which was okay but noisy with the highway close by."

Fourwinds Lakeside Inn & Marina

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful Marina with lots of music and excitement on the dock's. The hotel grounds were lovely and the service and staff were helpful and welcoming."

Cascades Inn

10/10 Excellent

"We had a good stay overall. The price of the room was reasonable, but it wasn't a home football weekend. The room was dated, but clean and quiet. The bathtub backed up with water because the drain was slow. The staff at the front desk was helpful. Breakfast was simple but tasty. We will stay here again when visiting our son who attends IU."

Hilton Garden Inn Bloomington

10/10 Excellent

"Great room. Very clean. New !"

Century Suites Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"My only recommendations might be to have the carpeted floor deep cleaned and to provide more than a couple of regular coffee pouches, but that's not a big deal. We walked over and got coffee in the lobby one morning. The 24/7 desk staff were very accommodating, nice and professional."

Graduate by Hilton Bloomington

8/10 Good

"What I like about the property was convenient it was closer to get to the University and you can walk to town. What I don’t like about the property where the staff or maybe just a couple wasn’t that accommodating and way too overpriced hotel!"
