Comfort Inn Riverfront - Harrisburg

Hotel staff very friendly. Nice size room. Clean. Only complaint was mattress was very hard and bed pillows very small. In room safe, micro and frig.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Overall, we were satisfied with our stay at the Comfort Inn Riverfront in May 2013. As the name implies, the hotel is located on the bank of a river (the Susquehanna River), which provides for a nice view of the river and the many bridges crossing the river. Unfortunately, we had a room overlooking the hotel's front parking lot. The hotel is a short […] distance from the city center, but is walkable if the weather cooperates. Our hotel appeared clean and the staff was friendly and offered restaurant suggestions (though we did not take them up on the offer as we had a previous commitment). The hotel offers guest WiFi, free continental breakfast and has a small fitness center for guests. Our hotel room was of a decent size and had a flat panel television. The bed was relatively stiff and had very small pillows. We also think the room smelled of mold, but are not 100% sure of this. I don't think we would stay at the hotel again if we return to Harrisburg as we would probably like to book a hotel closer to downtown near restaurants, etc. Read more

The hotel was very convenient and wonderfully located on the River front. The only negative is the friendliness of the front desk when we arrived.

Staff was helpful and pleasant..The room are old and in need of work. Very dissappointed for a Comfort Inn

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Honestly, the hotel itself was good and the price was about right. But starting at around 10:30PM I felt like I was on a frat party cruise ship. The hallway was filled with non stop yelling and laughing. More than once someone slammed against my door. It was clear that there were several people drinking and carrying on between rooms. Unfortunately, […] I was just down the hall from the front desk so I am certain it was no secret. Read more

We enjoyed the convenience of the hotel. Liked being able to walk into the shopping/downtown area. Enjoyed watching the river and the trains going over the bridge. Good breakfast. Staff was very helpful and courteous.

Hotel is not bad at all. Breakfast was nice, the staff is friendly and the room is clean. Pillows are a bit on the small side. Bed was comfty and the heat worked well on the cold nights I was was there.

We enjoyed the location and the staff were very friendly. We stayed the weekend of St Pattys Day so there were enough late nighters up and about to keep us awake, which always makes me long for better soundproofing. It was fine for a night.

a litttle noisy but will get a water view next year

The only problem we had was the mattress was too hard, but that is just personal preference. Despite facing the freeway, our room was still quiet and we did not hear traffic noise. The breakfast that was included had a nice selection of food. The river with the river walk was right behind the hotel. An added bonus if the weather is nice. The people […] at the front desk were very pleasant and helpful, there was a fridge and microwave in the room. Read more

Nice stay. There for just a night. Comfy room, quiet place nice continental breakfast.

Old musty and moldy. Only nice thing by the river .

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

It was exactly what we were looking for, location was perfect, the only change I would recommend is bring your own pillows. Pillows were very small

The room was clean and the staff was friendly. I appreciated the key security to get into the entrances not in the front.

I was taking my 93 year old mom to a concert at the Whitaker Center. I found the Comfort Inn online that morning. It was perfect. The staff was so wonderful. The room was right down the hall & had a handicapped-accessible bathroom. The river view was so pretty. And the breakfast buffet was excellent. A perfect experience.

Hotel was moderately priced, and close to my destination. Only a couple of minutes from the Harrisburg hospital where a family member was located. Decent breakfast in the mornings, quiet, river from view. Overall, a good place to stay.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Centrally located with nice amenities, especially the breakfast that included a very good variety of food. Having free WiFi and a fridge and microwave was good. Room had worn and torn carpet and was very dusty including all around the carpet baseboards. The bed was comfortable and the room was "refreshed" daily. The rooms are in need of an update but […] overall it was a good value for the location and amenities. I chose this hotel because it was close to the relatives I was visiting and they had availability over a holiday weekend. Read more

It was a decent place to stay. I only have a small problem with the type of pillows in the guest rooms. They put 4-5 small "square" pillows on the King size bed whereas I prefer the longer "rectangle" shape pillows. The small pillows are uncomfortable when I turn my head as I sleep then my head "falls" off the small pillow. Other than that--great place […] to stay! Read more

It was a good stay. Morning breakfast was ok....real eggs would have been nice instead of "egg patties" they had. Room windows were a bit strange, looking out into the hallway rather than outside.

found to be a clean hotel .Knowlegeable staff recommended a great brew pub for dinner,.recommend a walk along the river at sunset.

I needed an inexpensive hotel close to the Capitol building in Harrisburg, and this hotel is about a 20-minute walk from it. The people at the front desk were very friendly, and the bed was clean and comfortable. The bathroom was a bit dirty, with some mildew stains on the shower head and a slow bathtub drain. But overall I was very satisfied with the […] hotel. Read more

Mold in the shower, moulding falling off the baseboard, overall dirty hotel.

It's very good hotel. I like the river view and the riverside park. If you are looking for the hotel that you can do exercise in the morning, this hotel is the right place. It's located not far from downtown, just about 4-6 minutes walk. The room is clean and nice. But while I was staying there they were doing some renovation around Indian restaurant […] which close to the pool. I couldn't use swimming pool that morning. Read more

Using the microwave, the power tripped twice. You can't have the TV running an then use the microwave. That was kind of annoying. Also, they refused to bring more bread out 5 min before the breakfast time was getting over saying it is almost closing time.

Genuine Expedia guest review

The rooms were clean and comfortable, in Shypoke (not sure of spelling) ,a charming historic neighborhood on the edge of downtown. The pool is not too clean because of traffic dust and bugs from the river, but the view is just great. You can sit and read and watch the train spotters on Saturday morning. The trains stop and mug for the photographers […] as they pass by. The great flood levels are marked on the bridge. Unusual and fine shopping and restaurants very close by, Strawberry Square, The Plum, etc. Fabulous taverns. The captiol building, John Harris Mansion, the museum, all that stuff is within walking distance. The staff is very polite. And when it's time to go, 83 is right there. We had a good time. Read more

Older property with patch-work updates. It is past time for a major re-do, or possible even a tear down and re-build. Seedy part of town. Front desk lady very attentive and efficient. But had I not prepaid, I would have left and found another hotel.

Genuine Expedia guest review

This place needs new wallpaper and carpets. Numerous dings in the walls in public areas, and the carpets are stained. Did this place get flooded during Hurricane Irene? The air conditioning in our room was a little underpowered. Access from the motel back to the street is awkward, requiring a full circle around the hotel on one way streets.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Some of the hotel appears to have been upgraded, but not all. Our room was ok, but not great. Had to ask for a new bedspread on one of the beds as it was filthy and stained. The beds were not comfortable, a bit stiff for my liking. On the plus side, the room does have a microwave and refrigerator. When the hotel is at capacity, avoid going to the free […] breakfast buffet between 8 and 9 - the line is terrible and there's no place to sit -we had to take our breakfast back to our room, good thing we hadn't checked out yet.

Family fun day at Hershey Park which is 20 minutes away. We had multiple rooms reserved. Found and killed a roach. Tubs were dirty. Toilets were dirty. Not recommended. Pack our bags and left at 1AM

My travels took me to Harrisburg, and being in close proximity to downtown Harrisburg is very good. However, the hotel is older and although the amenities are fair, the bed was a little slouchy, pillows were flat, the floor of the bathtub had a film that made it slippery. And though it's not the fault of the hotel, there is a car audio installation […] shop directly across the street that "tested" the speakers past 10:30pm, so unless you're a fan of deep bass and are a very late sleeper, I'd recommend a different locale.

Room was filthy. When we asked them to please clean it up while we went to dinner, they said they'd send someone up. We returned from dinner expecting a cleaner room. It looked as if they'd done nothing except put a bottle of shampoo we used to wash our hands back on the tray and took the towel we used to dry our hands. Very disappointing.

Staff manning the breakfast area were rude. One woman in particular kept telling guests what they were doing wrong (waffle area). She was the only rude one. Other staff were pleasant. Her comments were within earshot of the front desk, so it surprised me that she could be so curt with customers. If I behaved that way on my job, I'd be fired. Room was […] relatively comfortable.

The air condition did not work we were told maintenance would come to fix it which they never showed up. Also there was a black hairball in the bath tub and the toilet would not flush properly and the internet would disconnect every few seconds.

Our first room wasn't clean and our 2nd room was a bit better. Hindsight, we would have requested our $ back and gone elsewhere.

The hotel is off the beaten path but is close to where I needed to be. Good place to stay for a night or 2.

I discovered after I got home that I left a small bag that had some jewelry in it in the room. I contacted the hotel the next morning to see if it had been turned in. I have not had a reply from the hotel and I don't anticipate that it will be found! Very disappointed that you cannot rely on staff to be honest when finding left items.
