We'll stay here again!
We had a quick but great stay at the Nittany Lion Inn. Rooms were comfortable and clean. Staff was very helpful (especially in getting my daughter's wallet, which was left at Rec Hall, returned to her) and friendly. We had lunch at Whiskers. Our waiter Jack was attentive and the food was tasty. The brunch buffet in the dining room was very good!

Opportunity to stay at Primo hotel @ PSU
We don’t get a chance to stay here very often because we have friends who live near State College and we stay with them. But they were not home and we were attending a PSU basketball game so when I saw we could stay at the Nittany Lion Inn for such a reasonable price it was a no brained. Beautiful hotel and enjoyed our stay.

I was told there was a hotel shuttle that could take me and my family to the concert. 30 minutes later when I came down to catch the shuttle I was told they were unavailable and at the airport. Terrible valet service. Had way too many customers and not enough workers.

The property was historical and beautiful. However, the walls were too thin and you were able to hear other guests near by.

Great location on campus. Lots of history. The rooms could use a few updates to make them feel a bit more modern.

Convenient
Very good location. Easy walk to downtown and Rec Hall. Front desk staff were pleasant and helpful. Loved the complimentary apples in the lobby. Room was basic and fairly large. However the layout was strange with the TV located at the side of the bed. The bed was so, so. One strange item, the elevators were very cold. Nice place to stay but will look at other facilities downtown.

Very nice historic property. Only issue was trying to get into the bar in the evening. Long wait and no place else to go on the property in the evening for later night fare and beverage.
