Top Brighton Hotel Reviews

Spark by Hilton Rochester University Area

8/10 Good

"Its was good the room was clean and the breakfast was a plus."

Holiday Inn Express Rochester - University Area by IHG

8/10 Good

"This was your generic hotel. Nicely kept, comfy beds, awesome selection of breakfast but the building is certainly older and it shows. It’s not falling apart by any means but could use a renovation. Everything was clean and check in/out was a breeze. Loved the breakfast selection, honestly I was surprised at how good it was. Pool was nice too but also quite old looking. Overall I would say solid stay and would stay again but more of a place to spend the night rather than go to enjoy the hotel amenities"

Hyatt Regency Rochester

8/10 Good

"Very comfortable room, great location, easy parking. Hotel bar was great, especially the friendly bartender. The bathroom had an issue with the shower knob, had to play with it to get it to work. There was a weird in-room announcement of an emergency around midnight that woke us up (luckily there was no emergency since we fell back to sleep right away)."
