Top Albany Hotel Reviews

Hampton Inn Albany-Wolf Road (Airport)

6/10 Okay

"Human hairs in the bathroom and also a loud barking dog in the room next door"

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Downtown Albany New York

8/10 Good

"I had the King suite and it was very roomy and comfortable for an extended stay. The bed was very comfortable and housekeeping made up the room daily. The breakfast was minimal but filling. Staff interactions were pleasant and everyone was helpful with suggestions for places to eat in the local area. Nice clean facility and I would stay here again."

Albany Plaza Hotel

2/10 Terrible

"Staff that stares when you say good morning. Only water source is your bathroom sink. Begger junkies on the street corners, loud arguing lateinto the night that wakes you, police sirens every night, I found a used needle in the parking lot. Dripping faucet, water damage on ceiling and walls, stained carpet, WiFi worse than the hotspot offered by my iPhone, low resolution cable that keeps freezing. Never again. Avoid this filthy hotel."
