Top Buckingham Lake - Crestwood Hotel Reviews

Park Manor Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Clean and comfortable. Great staff."

The Century House Latham - North Albany, an Ascend Collection Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This was a really nice place to stay while we were in town for a funeral. The room was clean and the bed was very comfortable. We were initially surprised when our GPS had us turn into an empty parking lot, so just a note that you enter the hotel from the rear of the building."

Crowne Plaza Albany - The Desmond Hotel by IHG

8/10 Good

"Very convenient site near Albany Airport. Nicely updated room, but you get noise from the window facing the courtyard. AND the ancient elevator noise level is high if your room is near it -- stay away from room numbers ending with 01-10. Television system channel control is technology circa 1990's=Clunky!"
