“The Hilton Garden Inn is a great hotel. It's right near the Indiana University of Pennsylvania campus. Which comes in handy for those traveling to do work in the area. The hotel itself is always clean, the staff is friendly and courteous. The rooms are well-appointed and always cleaned properly. One of the best features of the hotel area is the great restaurant inside the hotel itself. Some of the best food in the area is made right there! I highly recommend this location don't think about doing anything else at all if you need a place to stay.”

“Very nice, newer hotel that's almost right on campus. Very easy to find and get in and out of. We actually went to celebrate my son's bday, my husband works out of town, so we just met halfway. There's not a ton around to do, especially in the winter, I only left to get chic-fil-a. Which I do not recommend, it's on campus in the food court. Not easy to get too, ordering was terrible and food sucked, just a heads up The restaurant was really good, pancakes were amazing and they gave you a ton of bacon. It's nice touch to not have to leave to get food. Reminder no chic-fil-a on campus The pool area was clean with a ton of chairs and a ton of towels. The only complaint was that it was pretty cold. My son (10) swam for a little bit, but couldn't stay long which kinda sucked cause he was looking forward to the pool. The room was very nice. It was clean and stocked properly. We didn't get the larger room I had booked unfortunately. We brought our dog and the room I booked wasn't pet friendly, which I understand, and that's ok. It would be nice to have it somewhere which rooms are and aren't pet friendly. This is a downfall of most hotels it seems. I have come across a couple that do state whether a room is pet friendly or not, which helps a ton when deciding where to stay. He was also looking forward to the larger room. We were already there and there wasn't another hotel option nearby that accepted pets so we had to take the downgrade. They also have a nice dog area with a "waste station". That's always a nice touch and something alot don't have. And convenient cause I left my poop bags at home All the staff members I spoke with were so nice and helpful. It was quite a few too, our puppy seems to attract alot of attention I would absolutely stay here if we are in the area again.”

“We stay in this location often for various sporting events and I cannot say enough nice things! The staff is always so accommodating with our teams, the rooms are spacious and clean. Logan at the front desk has helped me so many times with room changes and is always so kind! Erika Geidel the director of sales also helps us yearly with different blocks. The Hilton Garden Inn at Indiana is the best in town!”
