This was my first stay at this hotel, although I've been to it several times for conferences. The room was large and very clean, and had the expected amenities for such a place. However, the bathroom was surprisingly small. You had to do a bit of maneuvering to close the door, but that was a minor annoyance. The issue I... More

Just attended a conference at the Penn Stater and have nothing but good to say. From the friendly and efficient front desk staff to the very very accommodating and friendly shuttle drivers, to the large amount of FREE and well maintained parking, it all starts and ends well. The property is wonderfully maintained. I had an executive suite style room... More

Came up for a convention and was pleased. The rooms are well designed and have the necessary amenities. The staff was friendly and there is a wonderful fireplace in the lobby. The food and refreshments provided by the hotel for the conference were much better than I expected and they had soft drinks readily available all day.

We've stayed here a few times when we visit relatives in the area. The rooms are clean, although last time we noticed a few stains on the carpeting in the room. Overall it was fine. What we can't understand about the place is that even though they make a big deal about "Blue and white goes green" at the hotel,... More

Attended a statewide conference and found the Penn Stater to be clean, bright, and very modern. The food was very good and plentiful. Various selections on the buffets -- appropriate temperatures and served in a pleasant display. Break food was also plentiful and diverse in selection. Beverage bar was extensive. My only complaint was we were all spread out....Parking is... More

The Penn Stater is a terrific hotel. Clean, professional staff, reliably consistent. Not in town, so we need to drive places or take mass transit. Great for football weekends, but expensive. Otherwise... I like staying there.

Due to a lot of frequent trips to this area, I stayed in a number of hotels in State College. Penn Stater is the best, hands down.

Beautiful hotel. They provide transportation to campus and anywhere you want to go. We attended a concert and they dropped us off in front of the BJC and picked us up afterwards. No driving and paying $10 for parking. Also enjoyed a wonderful Sunday brunch.
