Super 8 by Wyndham Liverpool/Syracuse North Airport
Room was clean, front desk staff was very pleasant helpful. Bed was comfortable but room could really use some TLC - cracks in walls and ceiling, water pressure was lacking and water temp not consistent there was also no shampoo or conditioner in the shower bottles.

Marriott Syracuse Downtown
Breakfast off the menu at 11 Waters was fantastic. Beautiful, vintage, fully restored hotel. We did not attempt the 20 minute walk to campus but it was a 5 minute drive away from the University. This was the nicest hotel we have stayed in Syracuse so far.

Embassy Suites by Hilton Syracuse Destiny USA
Aidan at the front desk check in was welcoming and personable. He conversed with me and it didn’t seem phony or an obligation as part of the job. It made a positive impression!

Our room was exactly as the picture shows. Very clean, loved the ease of the kiosk check in process, very quiet weren’t able to hear our neighbors. We will definitely be staying here again next dance competition season!!

Best Western Syracuse Downtown Hotel and Suites
Yes , there was a free breakfast. Nothing fancy Front Desk was great It was in the heart of Syracuse, so walking distances to many amenities and restaurants. 10 min drive to the airport or the Mall. And the parking lot has one EV charging station I think it's a great choice for a short a short stay ...
