HIgh end Best Western with a beautiful lobby (was told it was originally built as a Sheraton). Unexpected luxury and comfort booked on Priceline at the last minute and for a great price. Very pleasant and helpful staff. Would stay again.

The room was quiet with a beautiful flat screen as well. I would strongly suggest this hotel to all types of travelers because... More

A group of us travels to Harrisburg every April for an alpaca show. We've tried many local hotels, but the BW Premier provided the hands-down the best experience we've had in fourteen years. Every staff member was welcoming and helpful; the room was spotless and well-appointed; and the breakfast buffet delicious. All that for a very competitive rate. Highly recommended!
