Comfort Suites Downtown Carlisle
The location was excellent. The restaurant downstairs was lively at check in time but we had already eaten so we didn't try the food - look good though! The only negative was the shower. The grout was full of mold. Besides that, the rest of the hotel was nice and clean.

Crowne Plaza Harrisburg-Hershey by IHG
What makes this stay stand out were the staff. Incredibly kind and helpful. The place is clean. The breakfast is good. My bed was comfortable. Bathroom was a little dated but the staff were exceptional. I'd stay again anytime I'm here. Quick walk to the Capitol also.
