Top Buffalo Rock State Park Hotel Reviews

Magnificent Riverfront Victorian House steps from downtown Ottawa !

8/10 Good

"Large home worked well for eight 69/70 year old ladies with a view of the river from the deck along with lots of bedrooms/ beds and bathrooms. Nice large table in the main dining room to play games at. Smaller dining room has the only TV but view is obstructed by another dining table in front of the couch so IPads were used to watch college football games on. Cleaning lady missed cleaning out inside of frig along with removing a broken chair on the deck . Obtaining check in code was received later than stated."

Grand Bear Resort at Starved Rock

10/10 Excellent

"The cabin was very dusty and something’s had a half inch of dirt on them but I have to say that’s the only complaint I have. We had a great weekend there!"

Holiday Inn Express & Suites Ottawa by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"It was really clean"

Super 8 by Wyndham Ottawa Starved Rock

8/10 Good

"I always use the Super 8. It is economical, clean, with a provided breakfast. I would comment that they do not have a gym or pool, but then my needs when traveling are typically a good, clean bed; the fact that rooms are attractively decorated is a plus."

Comfort Inn Ottawa Starved Rock Area

8/10 Good

"Overall, nice stay at a good price. The pool hot tub was broken and no towels were stocked. We hadn’t brought down towels. The room was nice, except the bathroom door knob had cut a hole in the wall from opening the door so many times from many people. The room was quiet. I would have brought my own pillow as theirs were really small, square ones. The breakfast was ok, not enough fruit choices or healthy options. Being that the price was right and parking was convenient- I would recommend it despite the imperfections."

Modern Cozy Retreat Near Starved Rock w/ King Bed

10/10 Excellent

"This property was perfect for our weekend getaway. Clean, well stocked, and very cozy. Bonus, it's walking distance to some great restaurants, shops, and parks. The host was very communicative and responded to questions within minutes. All we wanted was a quiet place away from the kids to reconnect, watch TV, and enjoy some us time. This little place exceeded expectations."
