Checking in to the Scanticon was a bit confusing and difficult...you need to check in at the Radisson desk, then walk about 3 minutes down a long, but relatively well signed set of hallways to the Scanticon, as they are under renovations, however I did not feel unsafe. I believe a casino is going in at this location. I was... More

My boyfriend and I stayed here for an overnight shopping trip to King of Prussia mall. I booked the room on Priceline and got a room for $60, which I thought was a great deal. We arrived at the hotel and there were signs posted about having to enter and check in at the Radisson so we did so. Upon... More

There is no parking lot or front desk service because the hotel is under major renovation. You must check in at the Raddisson and walk several hundred yards to the Scanticon section of the convention center. The Scanticon section is deserted with no visible staff - it is dark, old and dirty and with no staff feels very unsafe. The... More

The Scanticon Hotel will remain open during the parking lot construction and guests will continue to check in at the Radisson Hotel front desk until the new hotel entrance and front desk renovations are completed. I can assure you the hotel is fully staffed and there are certainly no safety issues. Anyone who has a concern should ask to speak... More

Yes there is construction. But as of 11/11/11 it is in the parking lot of the scanticon. This is actually two hotels with a conference center between them. The Scantico lobby and parking is closed. So you check in at the Raddisson lobby and walk four or five minutes through the halls of the conference center to get to the... More

I got this room for my wife and college-age daughter to spend the night while doing some shopping at King of Prussia. First, the construction made the walk to and from the room, through the Radisson hotel, quite long and out of the way, not to mention the parking. When they went to dinner, they ordered hot sandwiches, after a... More

I very sorry to hear you did not have a good dinner experience. I have already shred your comments with the Food and Beverage Director so that he can take immediate action. Sounds like you enjoyed the shopping at the King of Prussia Mall. Please check out our shopping packages for a truly great value and thank you for posting... More

I just tried to post this review on PRICELINE . At the end of the survey, they would not accept it. I spent my time doing this, and was so frustrated. I think because the review was negative, it simply refused to accept it. kept saying I was making an error. Beware of standards dropping significantly on Priceline. as for... More

Dear poster; as mentioned in earlier postings, the parking lot construction is only temporary and the new entrance to the hotel will be open in Spring 2012. You will be completely amazed about the amount of improvement you will experience. Thank you again for posting. More

I made reservation on Hotels.com after reviewing their own website and it looked ok! When I got there, walked through parking lot that is packed due to part of the parking being under construction, checked in and than walked 15 minutes through inside construction which we were never told. My first room was so hot, AC didn't work, switched rooms... More

I am very sorry the construction on the parking lot caused you so much concern. We try to keep our guests informed through the hotels’ website because we realize many guests do not book directly with the hotel. I’d like to follow up personally with the guest room issues. Please email me or contact me at 610-992-2817 with the room... More

The reviews are right that there is construction and you have to walk a bit from the Radisson lobby where you check in. The room itself was very large. The bath was also large and had a jacuzzi (however, the tub was peeling and needed to be upgraded). I did not use it (just showered). The towels and toiletries were... More

Thank you for your constructive and positive feedback; and I agree, we are better than a Marriott Courtyard. Our rooms are much larger and each room has a Jacuzzi tub and as you commented, the best value in town. Thank you again for posting. More

Thank you for your loyal patronage to our hotel. We have many repeat customers and I’m sorry you were not made aware of the construction.
