Hilton Garden Inn Buffalo Airport

“Great place to stay”

Super nice hotel. Had drinks free for us and all the staff was great. Perfect place right across from the airport. McDonalds within walking distance...like 1 min. Staff was amazing and super nice. Good place to stay.

“Reasonable motel right across from Buffalo airport”

This review will be a bit difficult to write. The location to the Buffalo airport is great and the hotel has a van to get you there.

This review will be a bit difficult to write. The location to the Buffalo airport is great and the hotel has a van to get you there. It is a good-sized motel with plenty of rooms, very good staff on the reception desk, and substantial funds spent on the first level with the check-in area, an area to sit and chat, and a very adequate eating area with food and drink. Our room was on the third floor (of five or six floors?). The rooms and the hotel in general seemed quite clean. But there seems to have been a minimal amount spent to either keep the guest rooms working perfectly (e.g. shower in our room was woeful in terms of water pressure) or updated. The carpets and the couch, stuffed chair, and desk all seemed quite dated. Put another way, staying in this "suite" with a separate room for the couch/stuffed chair/desk and having it cost about $230...with no updating done in the room for some time (including the bathroom), I felt that it did not meet my expectations. So, if that doesn't bother you (but be careful of making sure the shower meets your expectations) and paying that amount is OK, then go for it.

“Worn Out Airport Hotel is Fine for One Night”

Look, this is a standard, plain old, sorta worn out airport hotel. You're staying here because of the location, not because of the amenities. It's fine, it's across the street from the Buffalo airport, and it is what it is. I slept just fine, not super comfortably but well enough for a one night... more

Look, this is a standard, plain old, sorta worn out airport hotel. You're staying here because of the location, not because of the amenities. It's fine, it's across the street from the Buffalo airport, and it is what it is. I slept just fine, not super comfortably but well enough for a one night stay. The room was reasonably clean and in a state of disrepair, but nothing that I couldn't deal with. I do think this hotel is overpriced for what it is, and it seems there are no deals to be had here. I was also disappointed that I wasn't given any sort of upgrade nor acknowledgement for being a Hilton Diamond member. Since my flight arrived after midnight, I took advantage of the free shuttle from the airport. I was traveling alone and didn't feel unsafe at all. I had to call the hotel to request the shuttle, and it arrived within 10 minutes even well after midnight. The driver was nice and got super excited when I slipped her a $5 tip. Apparently not many customers tip, so throw the driver a few bucks to make their day or night. I also rode the shuttle back to the airport to pick up my rental car the next day. I took advantage of the 24 hour shop in the lobby, it's a well stocked pantry and since I was starving, I got a few bottles of water and a cup of instant Oatmeal. I loved that my room had a microwave and fridge, which came in handy. The bed was comfortable, the shower was hot, and I slept just fine (considering I had to get up super early the next day). I mean, this again is just an airport hotel and I would not stay here for any other reason except that I have a flight or am arriving from a flight. This isn't a vacation type spot at all.
