Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Harrisburg Northeast - Hershey
The receptionist was rude and gave me a bad first impression. Kitchen staff did not appear or sound welcoming. Food quality at paid-breakfast was below my expectations. Bottom line: if that is the only hotel in Harrisburg, I would avoid Harrisburg altogether in my future trips.

Hilton Harrisburg
Staff was ok. The hotel surroundings and access was dirty. I wouldn't recommend this hotel for families. There are a lot of homeless folks in the area and the parking garage is sketchy.
