A place to keep re-booking close to HersheyPark!

Our family of 3 has stayed at the Rodeway Inn three times in 2024 (October, November, and December). With season passes to HersheyPark, we visit often from Baltimore and in the past have stayed at multiple different hotels mostly in Harrisburg to save money. We decided to try The Rodeway Inn because of the price and the location being very close to the park. Now, we are hesitant to even stay anywhere else as this motel meets our basic needs. The rooms are clean, comfortable, and parking is available most likely right outside your room. I’ve booked already for June and will be sure to stay again!

We ended up checking in late the the nice gentleman at the counter stayed an extra 30 mins to check us in. Nice, clean room. Soft sheets and the bed is pretty comfortable. Parked right out in front of our room with the trailer so very convenient. No breakfast availability in the am (it didn't say they did either in the description) but they did have coffee. Thank you!
