The updated and remodel has done wonders for the Woodlands. Shogun Restaurant served fantastic food. I had the habichi veg. with spicy crab rolls as an app. I suggest the hotel address the length of the shower curtain before they end up with water damage on the floor of the bathroom in room 191. The current curtain appears to be... More

My wife and I travel quite a bit and have spent quite a bit of time of time at 4 and 5 star hotels and resorts. I have to say that the Woodlands exceeded our expectations and was up there with some of the best. From our room, we saw the stream and the woods, making it feel like we... More

Our family recently stayed at the Woodlands for a soccer tournament our daughter participated in. What a wonderful experience! The Inn was beautiful and CLEAN, the staff was warm and friendly and the hut tub is amazing! The food and atmosphere of the Inn's restaurants exceeded our expectations. While club Evolution was a little overwhelming for us, great for singles... More

We stayed in the bridal suite because we wanted a jacuzzi tub. The room itself was a great size and the tub was wonderful. Friday ngt we ate at Crescenzos. The food was good and the bartender was nice and very helpful. Afterwards we went to the bar downstairs which had a great happy hour($1 drinks) and a cool band.... More

I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Woodlands for an overnight "staycation" during the holidays. I currently live in the Washington DC area and travel to Wilkes Barre a lot to visit friends and family. Every trip home I try to stay one night at The Woodlands. Being a former employee of The Woodlands and a Wilkes Barre... More

When booking your rooms, question location. We stayed in a stream side room. It was the quiet side of the hotel but a very long walk to the ballroom. I guess this was better than being along the hall connected to the nightclub. More

Thank you for taking the time to write a review! The streamside section is located a bit of a distance from the ballroom areas, but it does keep those rooms nice and quiet, especially on a busy weekend. Thank you for staying with us - hopefully we will see you the next time you are looking for accommodations in the... More

For its location to Mohegan Sun and its own nightlife, I'm sure it's fine. However, we had our toddler. I mentioned this when we booked for my nephew's wedding, but were given a small room on a corridor that connects a parking lot to some clubs. It was a runway for drunken louts and women of questionable employment. Sorry, just... More

Thank you for taking the time to write a review! You stayed with us on a weekend; unfortunately, even with our security staff, some weekends have a tendency to be a bit rowdier than during the week, due to our nightclub, several bar areas, and banquet functions - there's always at least a few events going on each day throughout...

My husband's company had their Christmas party at the Woodlands this weekend. We booked a king bed room with a stream view and we loved it! The dinner was ok, but not the best. The green beans were steamed with purple cabbage, rendering the liquor purple. Strange. The open bar was excellent! No watered down drinks! The shuttle service to... More
