This weekend we planned to go to the Teddy Bear toss and booked our stay at Red Lion. Randy and staff were helpful, and polite. We always feel like family there. We wouldn't want to stay anywhere else

Hotel's Favourite
COVID kept us from so much last year - but considering the hardship and sorrow many had from it, we considered ourselves to among the lucky ones. And we felt even luckier this year that we could return to the Red Lion in Harrisburg on our way to the Jersey Shore. We were a bit worried about our planned stay - we had heard so much about not enough workers being available in hotels and vacation spots - and also about people being careless about COVID (it is still out there!) The Red Lion is a huge facility with an enormous outdoor pool and indoor pool (along with a fun gameroom and a small arcade). All were open and well-maintained - the rooms were clean and the lobby sparkling - safety measures were in place. The long-time amazing, manager Randy admitted this was a challenging year - and that was why he was in a polo shirt rather than his traditional suit - he was there to do whatever needed to be done to keep the place going, even he had to do it himself. Though the place was busy with vacationers and visitors to Hershey we noticed no lack of care or attention. This is an older facility but lovingly cared for - a great oasis for families! We were so happy to be back - and we will be back again!…

Response from Randy Stuart, General Manager at Red Lion Hotel Harrisburg Hershey
Responded 31 Aug 2021
Dear Bushwanders, We are delighted to welcome you and so many of our loyal customers back this year. We were cautiously optimistic coming into the 2021 summer season that we would be running all areas of the property at 100%. Challenges aside with staffing and securing various supplies, we prepared to embrace every guest with the same level of service they have come to expect when staying with us. Our passion and commitment in understanding the needs of our guests 24/7 remains our #1 priority. Our age of our property may not be suited for some folks, and we respect that. But, if you’re looking for value and an unequaled service commitment standard, Red Lion Hotel Harrisburg Hershey will not disappoint you. Thank you for making us all smile. Kind regards, Randall J. Stuart, CHA, CHME General Manager

FanFlippinTastic Hotel! From the moment I walked in, I could tell there was a major positive deference from all other hotels. Usually with other hotels there is one person slumped over behind the counter on their phone, and not very enthusiastic about assisting you. Not so with this one!! I stroll right on in, and blam!--Smiles from multiple staff all ready to give you the best experience! They call themselves, "The friendliest hotel around" and they definitely live up to that! Jon, is a super cool dude, super friendly, and ready to help you with anything! He checked me in as speedy and seamless more than you could imagine! He even remembers my name when I walk past the desk! I even shook hands with the owner of the hotel, Mr. Randy! he was out on the floor meeting, greeting, assisting, and helping guests with their questions etc! It's very rare these days to get that kind of personable service! The friendliness and kindness of these good folks are thru the roof! Gotta love it! It's even better than Home! They will make you feel worth a million bucks! And not just me, I witnessed every other guest was treated like a celerity VIP by ever staff member, this is phenomenal! Your love tank will be filled to the brim! I found my room very easily and quickly, opened the door,...and CLEAN! smells clean, looks clean, everything in it's place. Very appealing to all the senses! The temperature thermostat worked very well, and the water was hot instantly! The shower pours out lots of water too, does not dribble. I'm on a business trip so I stayed for several days. When the housekeeping cleaned my room when I was gone, I returned to a spotless bathroom, fresh bedding, vacuumed floor, etc etc. There is a hot tub too! And an indoor large poor, and an outdoor Massive size pool! Also lots of meeting rooms and a couple huge ballrooms. Wonderful stay! Can't recommend it enough! I will come back to this Hotel with no hesitation next time I visit this area👌 Enjoy your stay! You won't regret it one bit…

We have been holding our monthly Chapter meetings at the Red Lion in the Hershey Harrisburg location for some time now and the staff there is amazing. Jane and her group are always so accommodating to our needs. They go out of their way to make sure our functions go smoothly. The staff and service for the dinners are so good. The members of the Chapter have enjoyed the dinners they serve. They always are hot and very delicious! The meals offered are reasonably priced. The servers are on top of things and very professional! Red Lion has had the Off Seasons Lounge opened for our Social Networking hour before dinner and our presentations, and it is a huge hit. Extremely nice facility and the location could not be more perfect for all of our members and guests. Right of the highway central to our members. Beautiful place and so many possibilities for the meetings! Thank you and we will be booking again!…

I have been at the Red Lion Hotel with my girlfriend for 3 weeks, and it was simply GREAT. Randy has checked on us every day to see if we needed something. The room was big, and comfortable, and it has a big TV screen where we watched our favorites movies. We enjoyed the hot tub and the swimming pool. They were very clean and at that time it was very quiet. The hotel is very close to good restaurants such as Two Brothers Pizza that offers the delivery to the room. If I have to resume the experience in one word, I will say: GREAT!

Our youth football organization has used the Red Lion for our annual end of season banquet many times. Our most recent use was in December of 2022. The staff there are very pleasant and accommodating, the facility is nice, food service is great and affordable, and overall our experience there is well received each year. We will continue to use the Red Lion in the future for our events!
