We had our stay at the Holiday Inn Poughkeepsie, where all the help was outstanding. My kid had locked the bathroom and the gentleman at the front desk had us opened up in no time. And Linda at the cafe was amazing. The food was refreshing, and she was kind, and helpful on our future destinations. All around great night thank you.

Nice hotel with a great staff

Reviewed By rob24

Stayed here as part of a wedding party. There was a computer issue going on when I arrived but the front desk made sure check- in was quick and flawless anyway. The employees let me know when the venue shuttle would be there for transport. Room was clean and spacious. I had a 4th floor king with sofa bed. There was a microwave, mini fridge and Keurig machine in the room. The bathroom was a little tight with not a lot of counter space, but clean and well lit. Room safe was in the wardrobe which made it difficult to hang my dress since there was an ironing board in the only free area of the wardrobe. Ample desk space and a nice flat screen TV also. There is also a fitness center but I didn't stay long enough to check it out. The breakfast was nice with a couple of egg options, bacon and turkey sausage and biscuits and gravy. Also cinnamon rolls, cereals, yogurts, juice etc. There is also a 24 coffee station in the lobby. Would stay here again next time I'm in the area. Every employee was friendly and helpful.

This hotel is nestled in the scenic part of upstate. It borders a beautiful creek. The property was once an Inn prior to Best Western. There is not a lot around it. The scenery is beautiful. We ate dinner prior to arriving at hotel. Breakfast looked appealing but we needed to get on the road. The gym was clean and people were using it, but we were on mini vacation. Exercise outdoors this weekend. The surroundings were very quiet, nestled in residential neighborhood. We stopped at local gas station. There was an Italian restaurant nearby and a Dunkin’ Donuts. We will definitely be returning. We were there Memorial Day weekend. I hope that the next time we come, there are chairs outdoors to look over the babbling creek.

Horrible condition

Reviewed By J6749IQmikeh

This was one of my two “go to” hotels in Poughkeepsie for business, always stay at Hilton as a Diamond member. They struggled during the pandemic and I was very tolerant of all businesses at that time. We are now 2 years past and this property is literally disgusting. Carpets are stained throughout, checked in on a Sunday night and the trash bin on my floor was covered in what appeared to be vomit, still there when I checked out on Wednesday. My room had a damaged lock on the door, fridge was a block of ice, carpet dirty, jacuzzi panel was falling off and held on with box tape, the list is endless. Hampton breakfast are what they are, but this location was horrible. Their packaged eggs had paper in the eggs and they didn’t bother to break them up, huge chunks of processed egg. I would have changed properties immediately but apparently travelled during college commencement with no other alternatives. The only saving grace is the staff which are exceptional, not sure how with a property in such disarray, kudos to them. If no other property is available on my next stay, I’ll stay in Albany and drive down for meetings. What a shame that ownership doesn’t care, Hilton needs to get involved.

Accidentally left my watch on the table when I left for check out. When I realized my mistake, I returned to pick it up. Unfortunately, the cleaning staff had already gone through the room and my watch was magically missing.

Great staff, clean rooms, wonderful beds

Reviewed By DrDestination

A wonderful property in the heart of Poughkeepsie. We stayed two nights (Friday and Monday). Friday the place was a buzz with a wedding party and a prom group, all handled quite well by the excellent staff. Our Monday night stay was a quiet evening. A special salute to Tuoi N. and Michael who went above and beyond to ensure we had a great experience. They are a credit to the profession and the property. Great buffet for breakfast, a cool, intimate bar for the evenings, and walking distance to a couple of great places to eat or take a drink. Ask for a high floor for great views of the Hudson River and bridges!

Residence Inn by Marriott Poughkeepsie

Disappointed

Reviewed By Gaby D

We chose the hotel for the third time. My husband attended a seminar at IBM and the short distance is one of the points we always value. There are other advantages that made us choose this hotel and this time they were no longer offered. Breakfast used to be very complete and are no longer complete, for example they do not offer fruit. Another of the services that we valued when I stayed alone in the hotel while my husband studied was a courtesy car that on some occasions brought me to the shopping mail. That service is no longer available, The room was not cleaned in the 5 nights of stay. If we needed to change towels we had to go to reception to ask for them and instead of giving a complete set, they skimped asking how many we needed. They used to have a social reception 3 days a week in the afternoon with drinks and food and they are no longer doing it....They have enough space to do it outside or place drinks and packaged food or burgers cooked outside as they did a few years ago Our perception is that in the name of COVID, economic cuts are being made. In other Marriott hotels where we have been staying a few days later we had full breakfast, daily cleaning of the room and excellent quality of service. Next time we will choose the recently opened Homewood Suites hotel that has the advantage of proximity to IBM
