Top Downtown Rochester Hotel Reviews

Baymont by Wyndham Henrietta/Rochester

6/10 Okay

"Very small room problem with the toilet. We were cramped."

Hampton Inn & Suites Rochester Downtown

8/10 Good

"The hotel is located in the downtown area by the Play Museum. The parking lot can get full toward the evening, we luckily found a spot but something to be mindful of. Check-in was a breeze, our room was clean and nice. The bed and pillows are terrible - mattress is hard as a rock and the pillows are pretty useless. The bathroom was nice, we had a walk-in shower. We had also upgraded to the room with a wet bar, only because it didn't seem that every room had a fridge and/or microwave. It was a great sized room, several places we could put our luggage out, and the desk was a nice to have. All in all it was nice and in a good location, we just didn't sleep well because of the bed."

School 31 Lofts at Colors Studios

8/10 Good

"This is an unique experience for us. There is no traditional lobby or reception area. All entrances are managed by electronic keypad. The staff coordinated with us through the text messages for daily cleanup and other needs. The hot tub does not have soap, shampoo and no place holder for one we brought. I will stay again but I wish there is a soap holder. Parkign is easy. The place is well maintained but bed, mattress and carpet could use more cleaning or even new ones."

Holiday Inn Express Rochester - University Area by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Buen lugar para hospedarse. De fácil acceso, muy limpio y camas cómodas. El personal fue muy amable, me permitieron late check out. Excelente desayuno. Definitivamente volvería a este lugar. Recomiendo visitar el Lamberton Conservatory."

Woodcliff Hotel and Spa

6/10 Okay

"The staff was polite and courteous from the first moment. However, upon arrival into my room, I noticed fairly quickly that the AC wasn't working. It was a muggy 80 degrees in my room. So, I cranked down the AC to 60 and left for a bite to eat. When I returned to my room, I realized the AC was broken as the temp didn't move. I notified the front desk the next morning. They told me it was restored later that morning. I returned midday to find nothing was different. I told them again it needed to be fixed as the temp in the room was 80. They offered to move me for the second night of my two night stay. It was inconvenient, but I couldn't sleep in that room at 80. Could tell the facility is long past due for updates and renovations. Nice bar and restaurant on 1st floor. Enjoyed the meals and drinks. Bartenders were exceptionally polite and helpful."
