What guests think

At Radisson Lackawanna Station Hotel Scranton, travelers praise the spectacular historic train-station setting and generally friendly staff, while recurring critiques note dated rooms, loud HVAC and thin walls, occasional odors, and inconsistent maintenance, housekeeping, and Wi-Fi.

Many enjoy the on-site Trax bar and Carmen’s breakfast, though menus and service draw mixed feedback. The downtown location is walkable to the University and Steamtown and convenient to highways, but nightlife noise and a small parking fee or lot conditions bother some. Amenities can feel limited, with scarce microwaves and occasional elevator or gym issues. Expect a memorable historic atmosphere with variable room quality.

Stayed here to run the Steamtown Marathon. Location was perfect for the race. The on-site parking was very convenient and safe. The hotel is gorgeous. Seeing the old pieces of the train station was very cool. Room was a little dated but clean and comfortable and was everything I needed. Hotel was quiet too. A great place to stay in Scranton. Very walkable to downtown. Would recommend to others visiting the area!

Lackawanna Station is our favorite hotel between NY and Pittsburgh when we go to Steelers games. I noticed the grime covered grates last year but this year the top and bottom of the stained glass was filthy, the roof and ceiling grates were unhealthy with their grit and grime and none of the draft taps were working in the bar.

Loved the old train station! The convenience of the two restaurants in the lobby was great after a long day at Poconos raceway. Food was great in both. The room was clean, hotel was clean. Staff was courteous and friendly. Cons- only one elevator was working, not too bad, never had to take the stairs. Our TV’s cable wire was bent to a point of half the channels coming in bad. Again, not a huge deal, we didn’t watch much. Overall 5 stars. Will stay again when we visit the area.

While the building is gorgeous, it was the most uncomfortable hotel I have ever stayed in. No ventilation made the room smell incredibly musty. The bed and pillows were so hard that I tossed and turned all night resulting in a sore neck and raging headache. We decided to cut our stay a day early and when we went to check out the clerk who initially gave us the wrong room number the day before only said "Okay" when we told him we couldn't stay another night with them.

The walls were very, very thin. Like the people in the next room sound they are in the same room. The room smelled sometimes of sewage. I think this is due in part to the fact that there are no bathroom fans. Also the water in the sink and shower are yellow. We went out and bought some room spray and ear plugs which helped. The shower curtain is on a rounded pole that dips in the middle so no matter what, water gets on the floor and walls of the bathroom. The bed was comfortable, the shower pressure was great.

The property is beautiful and the staff is friendly, but definitely not for everyone.the rooms are small, specially the bathrooms, and there a little outdated and run down. With that being said, thats part of the charm of the location as it is an old converted train station, but if you want an updated super clean hotel experience than your better off at the hilton conference center down the road. I prefer the charm of the radisson, altough the 32 inch NOT smart tv needs to go and some new technology needs to be added to go along with the charm of thr location.

I recently stayed at The Scranton Radisson, and unfortunately, my experience was far from satisfactory. One of the main reasons I chose this hotel was for its advertised Wi-Fi service, which I needed for work. However, during my stay, the Wi-Fi was completely down (This information was not disclosed to me at check-in) and I needed to check-out and work from a local Starbucks all day. What’s even more disappointing is how the staff handled the situation. I spoke to the hotel operations manager - she refused to offer any future stay compensation or reimbursement for the inconvenience. This lack of accountability and customer service left a very negative impression. While other aspects of the hotel might be fine, their unwillingness to address such a significant issue has made me question their commitment to guest satisfaction. I am also very familiar within the hotel industry, as my boyfriend is a regional manager for three major hotels in New York City. A very simple monetary gesture/future stay compensation could have been made to rectify the situation and leave me writing a positive review rather than a negative one. I would not recommend this hotel if reliable Wi-Fi and responsive customer service are important to you.

We chose this hotel as a convention site while visiting the Steamtown site. The access to convention meeting rooms was the worst since our organization was founded 60 years ago. We could not set up displays after we all booked our rooms. When we set up displays the management locked members out of the display and meeting rooms. Staff members doing food service were great but that couldn't cover for the failed attitude for management of convention space. This is not the way to treat historical societies who visit Steamtown ... The failure of convention support will spread to other historical societies as many of us hold additional memberships in groups that would be your customers. You need to change convention management to properly host historical society meetings in the future... If ever!

The hotel itself is unique and beautiful. The staff was very helpful. The downfall is the parking lot is often very full and it’s in dire need of repair. Also, there was a bar across the street that was extremely loud with music and people out in the street until well after 1:00 am. If I stayed again, I would ask to be in the back of the building to avoid the noise.

The Lackawanna Station hotel is beautiful, hailing from the same era as Grand Central Station in NYC. Room prices are very reasonable. Rooms are large. City views are great. Bathrooms could be updated, but are clean, well supplied and totally acceptable, unless you’re very picky. Expect services to be a little slow, but still a very good overall value, in a marvelous historic building.

The Radisson Lackawanna has amazing front desk and bar service - very accommodating, quick, and welcoming. The space itself is full of history and charm. The location is convenient. The only downside was our service at the restaurant- the food was mediocre, our server was kind but clearly had no idea what she was doing which led to slow and confusing service, incomplete orders, and wrongly made coffees. Small price to pay for a cool, historic hotel with a good restaurant across the street.

I was waiting this moment to complain to someone about the coffee we just ordered today at the coffee shop. We got a cappuccino and an americano, but unfortunately, they didn't taste right. It was like hot water with barely any coffee flavor, and the color was almost off. We ended up throwing them away. We were really looking forward to a good cup of coffee, especially since we're staying at the hotel an we paid for our drinks. Check with your suppliers what coffee are you buying or probably you do not how to use the coffee machine at the coffee shop.
