Top State Museum of Pennsylvania Hotel Reviews

Crowne Plaza Harrisburg-Hershey by IHG

8/10 Good

"Room was very clean,staff was excellent.The room we stayed in had an adjoining room, the door would not completely close or latch, someone had move a table in front of the side of the door to try and block entry from the other room. This needs fixed."

Hilton Harrisburg

10/10 Excellent

"I loved the ability to do room service and how easy it was to place my order. Although, I do wish you could order through app, but no complaints. Both restaurants were really good as well. The staff was very friendly and nice, I loved that they made accommodations for me to have a late checkout due to my flight schedule. Also, the room and property was kept up nice. I will be staying at this location again."

BurgBnB Riverfront

10/10 Excellent

"Cute place right across from the river. Easy walk into downtown"

Historic Harrisburg Home

8/10 Good

"It's a beautiful home and very well cared for. They are very picky and I wouldn't recommend this home for older people or people with small children. There's a lot more communication needed on the front end than is normal. Outside is a but dicey and loud at night but we are city people and weren't bothered. Parking the car is not difficult and is only a short walk away. If you dont want to walk to get to your car or cant provide plate details in advance (for example if you have a rental) this would be a difficult place to stay. That being said the home is lovely and clean and a great fit for families with older children or adults and the hosts were very responsive."

8/10 Good

"Better directions to get to the parking behind the property, cause you can’t see the signs from the street"

Midtown Studio w/ Bath & Kitchen- Walk To Restaurants & Nightlife!

10/10 Excellent

"The previous reviews mention parking issues, but on my last day there in mid-August, 2026, they found a way to get visitors a parking pass. Wasn't helpful for me, but definitely better for you! So, I would disregard any review mentioning parking troubles. It definitely was a hassle, but you shouldn't have to worry about that anymore. My only complaint is that the dishes weren't clean, it's like they just trusted the last visitor to make sure they were clean. So, I washed every dish on my 2nd day there. I like that household things like sugar and coffee filters were there, but the lip gloss and foundation that were half used and in the bathroom cupboard were kinda questionable. Overall though, communication was great with the owner, it's close to downtown nightlife, the room was as clean as advertised, I felt safe and clean. When my door locks batteries were dying, they had more waiting for me before I even knew it was an issue. This ain't the owners fault, but like in any city, make sure you lock your car doors, had 27 dollars taken from my console. Again, not the owners fault, but is relevant if you're staying in the area. 10/10 for my actual room experience tho! Clean, quiet, exactly as advertised!"
