Hotel Residence Inn a Lebanon

The Marriott Residence Inn Hanover Lebanon is as consistent as the day is long. Far superior, in my opinion, to the Courtyard by Marriott, nearby. We have stayed at this hotel since the day that it opened. The hotel is like a fortress, it is tried and true, and impervious to the outside world, and world conditions. The hotel appears to have made it through the Covid 19 Pandemic, flawlessly. We were greeted by a warm welcome and efficient and professional check-in. Our room is more than a hotel room, it has a mini kitchen, a comfortable couch, a large screen, state of the art TV, closet space, and a very comfortable bed. Our room was SPOTLESS, well maintained, and quiet. There is plenty of (free) parking all around the hotel. The current buffet breakfast is a huge improvement over the mess that Marriott re-imagined a few years ago for Residence Inn. Fortunately, this hotel has bucked Marriott and Residence Inn's alleged breakfast brand standard, and they are delivering a real breakfast. Almost, like the way it was before Marriott messed with the Residence Inn breakfast. The only thing missing, that I could remember, is fresh fruit salad. Our breakfast items were fresh, thankfully, this Residence Inn brought back, fresh, cooked daily oatmeal, instead of those horrifying packets of instant oatmeal, and a waffle iron, to make your own, fresh waffle. There was plenty of variety to make a healthy, power for the day, filling breakfast. Fortunately, as well, this Residence Inn got rid of those commercial pastries, that I truly believe, if you unwrapped one, and put it on the hood of your car, the paint would be gone - - dissolved by those commercial danish/pastries. But, fortunately, those danish/pastries are gone. The staff of the Marriott Residence Inn Hanover Lebanon are warm, friendly, professional and efficient. There is an excellent fitness center, on-site. The hotel is immaculate. Another redeeming quality of this Residence Inn is its stellar location, just down the street from Dartmouth College, and Hanover, NH, across the street from Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center, and on the Vermont border with New Hampshire (separated by the White River). The location is a visitors dream. There is a very good restaurant next door to the hotel, and an excellent supermarket, next door, as well, and an excellent steak house, just down the street. I'd highly recommend the Marriott Residence Inn Hanover Lebanon for a stay in the Upper Valley.
