Top Amherst Hotel Reviews

DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Buffalo - Amherst

DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Buffalo - Amherst

8/10 Good
"Our stay was fine. Even though the main floor was still being renovated staff and construction people were polite and considerate. Our room was quiet and newly renovated apparently. It was clean. Although we had to ask about extra towels and sheets as we had three people and needed the pullout sofa as well as the king bed. They called it a suite, but it wasn’t really - a bit tight for three people. The toilet room with walk-in shower was quite small. Sink area wasn’t behind closed doors. Restaurant was a bit of a temporary set up during renovations. Food was fine for the value. Average overall."
