The hotel was great. It was two blocks walking from where I needed to be. When I checked in, I was texted a key code for the front door in my room. There was no staff at the hotel at all. Very strange. However, I love the hotel. The room was spacious, very well decorated, and everything was spotless. I’m surprised it is not staffed, but will probably stay again.
I recently stayed at the Nittany Lion Inn for 4 nights and 5 days, and I cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience. The rooms were great — clean, spacious, and extremely comfortable. The hallways were absolutely amazing, lined with bookcases and cozy seating areas, all surrounded by fascinating history that truly made the Inn feel special and unique.
The mocktails at Triplets were delicious, and the coffee at the café was just as impressive — such a treat during our stay. We were in town because my daughter danced at THON, so we were coming and going at all hours. It was incredibly comforting to be somewhere that felt so safe, welcoming, and conveniently close to everything we needed.
Every single staff member was absolutely incredible. I never once arrived or left without someone opening a door for me — that level of attentiveness and hospitality does not go unnoticed. Everyone was warm, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful throughout our entire stay.
I do need to especially mention Claire. From the moment we arrived until the day we left, she made our stay so comforting. When my flight was canceled, Claire went above and beyond to ensure my son and I were taken care of. She helped us navigate our travel changes and made a stressful situation so much easier. Her kindness and professionalism truly stood out.
Thank you for making what was already a meaningful trip even more memorable. We will absolutely be back!
Breakfast was great - really good selection of food! Rooms were very clean and the staff were super friendly. The only complaint I had were loud neighbors next door. Would stay here again
Charming stay with lovely vintage vibes, very much in keeping with the local area. The location is excellent, and the diner next door is perfect for breakfast. The room was clean and comfortable, though some features are showing their age, our sink had cracks, and the bathroom suite felt very dated. Check-in was also very slow as the receptionist seemed unsure, which was frustrating after a long day of travel. We had also booked with the promise of a ‘Welcome Gift on arrival,’ but reception had no idea what this referred to, so nothing was provided. While it was a pleasant one-night stop, and we appreciated the character, I don’t think we’d choose to stay again.
We booked a night as we went to a concert at Hershey. It was clean and when checking I , staff was friendly. However, We were a bit appalled during our breakfast . We got down to breakfast area and there was hardly any food. They had no juice in the machines and a woman kept saying to all of the customers that breakfast was over, which it was at the time we were sitting. As we sat there eating the little that was out, a group came in and sat down. The woman in charge got all this breakfast food out and put it on their table to eat. Food that looked like it was what could’ve been served to customers that were turned down. We kept staring in aw and the woman came over and told us that employees were being fed and if we wanted any of that food we could go get some. She said it was Indian food that she wasn’t allowed to serve to customers. Our opinion was is that it was her family being served food that customers were turned away from. Not a good look or feel of this situation. Other than that, stay was pleasant
The hotel has a good location, convenient transportation, quiet environment, complete hotel facilities, rich breakfast, clean and comfortable rooms, suitable for business travel, I will come again next time!
Very nice little hotel. Clean, decent gym, and affordable. Lots of kitchen gadgets available if you plan on cooking your own meals. Very close to a variety of stores and the airport. I'd definitely stay here again next time I'm in town.
Overall satisfied. Facilities, cleanliness, staff service, etc. The first visitor can spend a comfortable time without any complaints to point out. It is a hotel recommended for those looking for a hotel near State College.
We had a delightful stay at the Radisson in Scranton, PA. The hotel is historic and beautiful. Lots of marble and decorative wood. It is an old train depot and located right behind it is the University of Scranton’s soccer field which we enjoyed watching practice. Right across the street is a nice restaurant as well as having one in the hotel. We had a delicious breakfast with a very nice waiter. Everything about our stay was first class.
Very Good

AAudreyTFThe longer we stayed the lesser the points became. When we checked in, at first glance everything was 5 stars.
WiFi and location are definitely 10/10 for me.
My first issue was with the refrigerator not working, I lowered the temp to the lowest possible setting but nothing changed and I notified the front desk and they said they would send someone to check within an hour and that person never showed up I’m not sure if they came while we were out but when we came back the refrigerator was still warm. This issue was never fixed up to the day we checked out. It was very disappointing as I had baby food that needed to be refrigerated.
The blinds in the bedroom do not block out any light at all and our room was opposite a parking lot which head very bright lights all night long it was so hard to fall asleep I hope the property can have better curtains or blinds.
Secondly, I’m not sure if I missed it somewhere about them not offering house keeping, at least there’s a washer and dryer so I just washed the towels on my own. We stayed 6 nights and no one ever came to refresh the rooms or even add more toilet paper or garbage bags.
The floors were visibly dirty and dusty like they haven’t been vacuumed in months.
The 9th floor common area was so filthy, the toilet was so dirty and smelly, the couch was so dirty I couldn’t even sit on it.
The central cooling/heating system makes a strange long noise every now and then and it kept waking up my child. I could find any way to turn it off and that was very frustrating.
