Top hotels in East Omaha

Sleep Inn & Suites Omaha Airport
The bananas at breakfast were already turning and partially black. Breakfast choices were lacking. The apple juice choice on the drink dispenser just had water in it. Cups for hot drinks was very small.

We enjoy staying here when we come into town for events at the Holland Center. We love shopping on Howard Street and being walking distance from these locations. The room and bed are very comfortable.

Hotel Deco
Beautiful hotel. Very nice staff! Valet parking. Only thing that was hard was getting to and from due to outside street construction. Hotel itself was all around excellent!
