Top Athens Hotel Reviews

Ohio University Inn & Conference Center

10/10 Excellent

"The room was very clean, property was well maintained, the staff was helpful and the food was very good from the restaurant/ bar."

Hometown Inn Athens

10/10 Excellent

"Check in was easy and quick. The person who checked us in was so nice. The location was good for us to go to Ohio U events. The unit was clean. The unit had a microwave, coffee maker, and a mini fridge. It’s inexpensive and work well for us. It’s right near a highway but there’s not much traffic at night so it’s fairly quiet. There is ample parking and I felt safe in the area. There isn’t any breakfast, but grocery stores and coffee shops are not far away."

Quality Inn Athens

8/10 Good

"It was a nice place for the pool and spa but somehow I got the handicap room ?"

Fairfield Inn & Suites Athens

8/10 Good

"The room was nice enough, the shower glass had water spots and the grout could have used a good scrub or maybe time to replace? Overall it was a clean room which is number one for me to feel comfortable. No stains on carpet and sheets were spotless. They also provided plenty of towels. Thank you! Good location off main street. My only real annoyance was how inconsiderate other guest were being loud talking and laughing in the hall at 11:00 pm and others dropping heavy things on the floor above us. It just seems people don't care anymore and they think they are entitled to do whatever....sad reality."

Hampton Inn Athens

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was fantastic and very clean. Best I’ve seen in a long time and i travel a lot. Great place."

The Lostro – a boutique hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The room was very clean and the property is located in the heart of Court St. I would definitely stay here again."

Highlander Motel

8/10 Good

"Everything is top notch here. Property is a little off the beaten path and seems mostly to be a residential motel for workers, but it was very quiet and well maintained. I wish the room coffee was better, but most hotels have that lousy kind of coffee. At least there was coffee. No breakfast here, just vending machines. Slept really well here. Staff was very nice. Parking was full at night, mostly gone in morning. Had no problem parking right in front of my room."
