Hotels near Rosamond Gifford Zoo

"Friendly staff and very clean. "

"The breakfast and coffee was poor. The room was fine."

"Don’t eat the breakfast!! Inedible for what was actually offered. The eggs were one solid gelatinous pile. Waffle batter was positively vile. "

"The room was very clean. The linen and bedding was extremely comfortable. The breakfast was delicious especially the oatmeal. The gym was very sufficiently functional. The staff was very helpful. Definitely would stay there again, but wish they had dressers. I also would like it if they were stands on both sides of the bed and not just one nightstand."

"Hotel appears to be in the middle of rennovations: hallways had all baseboards removed, pool was drained and not available, THERE WAS NO HOT WATER in room, and heat for room was provided by a portable heat unit. The hotel may be better in future, but at least for 2026 we recommend avoiding it."

"My stay at the Best Western at the Fairgrounds in Syracuse, NY was very disappointing. The mattress in my room was absolutely horrible, one of the worst I have ever slept on. I asked if something could be done about it, but nothing was ever resolved during my stay. The rooms are very outdated, and in the afternoon I had cold water in the shower, which is not what you expect after a long day. Housekeeping was also very poor. They forgot to replace towels, and I learned that you actually have to request room cleaning even if you are staying five nights. What made it worse was the attitude at the front desk. Every time I asked for help, the response was very defensive instead of helpful. There was no effort to work with me or solve the issues. The manager was also nowhere to be seen the entire time. Overall this hotel seems very poorly managed. I would definitely recommend staying somewhere else."

"The room was not equipped with proper working fixtures and bathing towels two days second day bath towel was stained with blue dye Carpet was stained and the desk chair was in very poor condition the desk was sprayed with splatter pain the bed box spring was worn out"

"Everything was wonderful "

"Clean room and comfortable stay. The room and bathroom were spotless, the bedding was cozy, and the hotel was quiet at night. Check-in was easy and the staff was friendly. Very close to downtown Syracuse. Great value."
