Top Downtown Erie Hotel Reviews

Courtyard by Marriott Erie Bayfront

8/10 Good

"Beautiful hotel with outstanding bayfront views. Room was clean and bed was very comfortable. Only negative was there was no microwave in the room and the refrigerator was very small and froze everything. When housekeeping cleaned the room they took the towels and did not leave any clean ones. Had to call to get them."

Baymont by Wyndham Erie

10/10 Excellent

"Check-in was quick and easy, and our king suite was spacious, comfortable, and very well maintained. Both the bedroom and living room had a nice television, which made the suite feel especially relaxing. The living room, bedroom, and bathroom were all exceptionally clean. The location is also perfect for a casino getaway—the casino is conveniently located right across the street. We always choose the Baymont when visiting Erie for a casino trip, and we continue to enjoy our stays. It is a clean, comfortable, and welcoming hotel that we would happily recommend."
