Top Gainesville Hotel Reviews

Super 8 by Wyndham Gainesville I-75 Hospital University Area

10/10 Excellent

"Clean and spacious room. Very nice staff. Parking was close to a entrance that was closer to our room than the main entrance. Price was great. Breakfast had a decent variety, too. We got there about a half hour before check-in, but they had our room available so that was a small added bonus. Location was right off the interstate, which made it super convenient! A++"

Best Western Gateway Grand

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean, spacious and comfortable!! We loved enjoying the hot tub at night and the bath towels were some of the softest and nicest quality I have ever had at a hotel. Also, don’t skip the free breakfast! They had a lot of great options and they were actually flavorful and of good quality!"

Hotel Eleo at the University of Florida

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was very kind. They were friendly at check-in and couldn’t be more helpful as we tried to find a place for dinner, especially the people working the valet. The room was very warm when we arrived. But once we got the A/C turned on, the room cooled down. The bathroom had a nice layout and at first looked very clean. However when I showered in the morning, I found hair on the permanent shampoo/conditioner bottles and a dead bug behind the door. These little things wouldn’t keep me from staying here again but wish the details were handled better. We also didn’t enjoy riding the elevator with and right after the person who had clearly been smoking weed. It reeked for quite awhile afterwards. But again I am not sure what else the hotel could do as they already have each person sign an agreement about not smoking anything of any kind within the hotel."

HOM Hotel Gainesville, SureStay Collection by Best Western

10/10 Excellent

"Fresh breakfast offerings, everything was great, eggs, bicuits, gravy. Staff kept the food flowing, and all were friendly and courteous ( working Xmas ). Clean room, beautiful lobby and outside was maintained, area safe with lots of food and retail close by. Traffic around property minimal. Easy to come and go. Great hotel. "
