If you’re attending a concert at the Blue Cross Arena it is in the perfect location! Parking is available and a parking pass is given with the room. Staff were friendly and check-in/check-out was extremely easy and quick.

The room was cold and there was no place to turn heat up. They charged me $293.67 Expedia quoted 258.86 Coming out of parking garage was suppose to be free. When we left Sunday morning at 6:45am I had to pay $10 to get out of garage. We checked out before leaving. Room was cold and we could not put heat up.

Friendly and hospitable to young musicians!
We were impressed with this hotel! We were in town for my son to visit Eastman School of Music. Upon check-in, the desk clerk saw his instrument and asked if he was auditioning. He explained he was just visiting this year, and she immediately offered him access to practice space within the hotel and gave us vouchers for free breakfasts that I guess are generally offered with a package if students are there for auditions. This was the first hotel we've encountered in our travels that has the opportunity to sign up for practice space! They also texted us a few times throughout our stay to make sure we were comfortable -- a nice touch. I found staff generally very friendly and helpful. The restaurant was good -- not exceptional, but decent -- and we were comfortable overall. I will say that even after turning the heat up in our room, it was difficult to get warm (very high ceilings), and the bedding was very thin so I would have preferred to see extra blankets in the rooms for guest use. Also, we weren't aware there was an airport shuttle until after we arrived; would have liked to know that ahead of time! And it seems to only go one way, as when I texted the desk the day before our departure to ask about recommended ways to get back to the airport, they suggested I use Uber. Not a problem, just a tiny thing that I feel could have been better communicated to guests. We'll definitely stay here again when we return for auditions next year!

We reserved a suite with two queen beds and a pull out as we we traveling with our 3 sons. Upon arrival they said they were overbooked so could not give us the room we had reserved. Instead we stated in a small room with two beds that wasn't ready until aft 8 PM. Our other so and his team the Las Vegas Desert dogs were staying at the hotel as well, hence the reason we booked at your hotel. They gave us vouchers for the bar but it was closed when we returned from the game. Made for a very disappointing and uncomfortable stay in Rochester.

Well done!
The staff was very accommodating helping with a practice room for preparation for auditions at Eastman School of Music. Our room was in great shape, bathroom was exceptional. Thanks for removing one of the stressors traveling to an audition can bring.

Overpriced gross hotel. Rude workers.
Rude welcome at check in, rude server at breakfast. Waitress yelling at cook, just miserable person. Hotel room was not clean. Fingerprints all over. Little red and gold sequins on the floor in the bathroom. The couch in the hotel room was so dented in the middle from use, when you sat down you felt the medal bar. Worst part when I filled up the tub in bathroom for my daughter, there were these black particles floating in the water. Disgusting. Also heads up if you spend the extra 15 on the breakfast, its a waste of money. Its one of the worst breakfast ive had at a hotel. Only possitive was the lobby looks nice. Hilton used to mean something.

Very pleasant…one thing that could affect this review if done by someone else…but I was put on a floor where there was a bachelorette or some celebratory group. They were up in the hall very late and having a good time…I slept fine…my guess is others would not have been able to. Mitre into room assignment otherwise A great place to stay.

Great for a short stay for families
Service was amazing, quick to reply via text. Shuttle was also quick and convenient. Very nice driver, made suggestions along the short drive. Room was spacious and great for our family of 4 (with 2 young children). Bed and washroom were clean. Shower pressure could be better and towels could be more soft and comfortable but otherwise, great stay!

Overnight trip for a show
Customer service was top notch. Front desk employees were great! Chris at the restaurant was amazing! It was a nice, short walk to the Blue Cross Arena - less than 10 mins. Would definitely stay again.

Customer service was excellent! very friendly, going out of their way to help with anything. Appreciated the shuttle service accessibility. Was disappointed with parking process, was given barcode to scan to get in and out and sometimes it worked sometimes it did not. They recommended to take a picture of it and had same issues. Not being able to get in and out of parking garage is not something guest should have to be concerned about. Strongly recommend better process be developed. Once I called for help, parking person did come over right away so that was very helpful.

Great Stay - highly recommend
Check in was a breeze, we dined at drifters, service and food were great - and they were very accommodating of a food allergy. We were there one night for a concert, so we didn't use the pool or anything but it looked nice! Highly recommend.
