Top Carthage Hotel Reviews

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Joplin

10/10 Excellent

"Clean staff good , breakfast good , hot tub nice"

Precious Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This is a very clean and well-maintained property with convenient freeway access. Walmart, Starbucks, and Lowe’s are all just a short drive away. The hotel has one of the grandest lobbies I have seen, and we always enjoy spending hours playing chess there. I highly recommend this hotel, especially for families and travelers looking for a comfortable, convenient stay."

Super 8 by Wyndham Carthage

8/10 Good

"We booked 3 rooms because the pics showed that they have been updated with laminate flooring. Carpet is a big no as I suffer from dust allergies. Our rooms were located on the 2nd floor & were not updated & all had carpet. There is also no elevator. I voiced my concerns to the staff regarding the outdated rooms as this is not what we saw online when we booked. The rooms are in the process of being updated, but have not reached the 2nd floor yet. Staff was very eager to move us to the 1st floor. The motel itself is older. Breakfast has a lot of improvement to be made yet. I have no doubt that once the motel is 100% renovated, that it will be a beautiful place as it has great bones and a great location. Again, the owners went above and beyond to assure that we were happy."
