Hotels Near Chameleon Gallery in Plattsburgh

This Holiday Inn hotel is ideal for use as a business hotel. I used it while on a business trip and was able to have a perfect day during my business trip. Thank you for the excellent service during your stay. I used it well and then left.

This hotel does just fine. It's not elegant, but it makes no pretensions. The room was clean and comfortable, the breakfast well stocked with fresh items. The hotel would have earned 5 stars, but the heater for the swimming pool was on the fritz, so the water was 68 degrees and I ended up in the gym. And the breakfast menu did not include decaf coffee, although the Keurig in our room did provide decaf.

We should have known from what we paid for this one night stay, but we took a chance on an express deal, hoping for a good deal. When we arrived the office is in a building away from the main part of the hotel. The hotel itself is back from the street, behind other buildings and we missed the sign the first time we drove by. The person checking us in wasn’t unfriendly per se but very business like and to the point. He certainly didn’t make us seem very welcome. We were given verbal directions to our room which was located on the second floor and please note, there are no elevators, so you must be able to climb the stairs. There was a huge pot hole in the driveway to get to our room, which we hit because we were looking at signage for our entrance. When we opened the door to the building, the smell of some sort of air freshener about knocked us over. It’s almost like they are trying to cover up smoke or a musty smell by using it extra strength. Our room was fairly clean, although I really questioned if the sheets had been changed or just smoothed out and tucked back in. I promptly took wipes and wiped everything down. The air conditioning unit made a chirping noise almost like a cricket being in the room. The tub had cigarette burns on it or that is at least what they looked like to me. The nonslip mat was brown in the bottom of the tub, which while it might have been that color, was pretty outdated. In fact the whole hotel is very outdated. I offered to change hotels and “eat” the cost of the room, but my husband assured me we would be ok as it was just overnight. We did stay the night, but we did not attempt to eat breakfast there or use the pool so I can’t speak about how those were, but they are offered. Over all, if you are desperate and just need a room for the night, it will be fine, but you can find much nicer places to stay in the area for just a little more than what we paid for this room.

We spent the last few days trekking through the Quebec taiga. Heading home, we layed over in Plattsburgh, NY at the Hampton Inn. The accommodations were clean and spacious. Beds we’re soft and comfortable. Hot tub and pool area was immaculate and felt amazing after our adventure in subarctic conditions. Karen, the manager on-duty, was so sweet and just absolutely lovely! Excellent, old-school customer service. We could tell she genuinely cares about her customers *and* staff. Although we are not Diamond Members, we felt particularly taken care of. I was also so happy to see how patient and nurturing she was with new staff she was training. We recommend this place 100%.

My son and daughter had a hockey tournament in St Albans and I wanted to find a hotel that was close but not too close that we had to deal with a crazy busy hotel right by the rink...something low key to relax in between games! I booked the Residence Inn in Colchester for a few reasons: 1. pictures showed a hot tub 2. the rates were reasonable 3. it has great reviews. The hotel is super easy to get to. The lobby is very welcoming and all of the staff we interacted with were beyond helpful and very friendly. We were allowed to check in quite a bit earlier than the check in time which was a life saver. We were also allowed to check out a little later as well--biggest perks of our stay! Our room was very large and although we didn't need that amount of space, it was still really nice to have. Room was clean, however, there were two negatives: it had a funky smell when we first entered. It didn't bother anyone to the point of wanting to leave. The bedsheets in one room had a blue stain on them. It looked like toothpaste but it was enough to freak my 6 year old out! The biggest disappointment was walking into the pool area and finding out that they got rid of the hot tub :( Hotel website doesn't show a hot tub as an amenity...so this isn't anyone's fault! It was just a bummer. My kids quickly got over it! Just something to note if you see the hot tub in review pics...it is not there anymore. Overall we had an excellent stay and I would definitely stay again!
