What guests think

At Cherry Valley Hotel, guests consistently praise the serene courtyard setting, spacious rooms, and friendly staff, while also noting ongoing maintenance gaps such as the repeatedly closed hot tub, occasional pool and ice machine outages, and periodic HVAC troubles.

Cleanliness feedback ranges from spotless rooms to reports of mold, pests, and poorly cleaned bathrooms or hallways. Rooms are generally large and comfortable, though some guests mention soft mattresses, dated furnishings, broken patio locks, limited microwaves, and hard-to-control temperatures. The peaceful location near Granville and Denison appeals to many, but dining quality and service can be inconsistent and prices vary. Expect a scenic, comfortable stay with occasional maintenance or service hiccups.

Very comfortable and clean. Unusual floor layout, beautiful grounds. Pool (with hot tub) looked nice. Bar closed early (9pm) on a Saturday night. Easy parking. Would be a lovely place for a wedding or other special event.

We booked for three nights. Check-in was fast and friendly. Our room was spacious. The beds were comfortable and we had a small balcony. The mattress was soft and comfortable , the pillows were a bit spongy. The outdoor garden area was beautiful. My daughters enjoyed looking for frogs and watching the ducks. The outdoor fire pit seated 6 people, and we were lucky enough to get to sit by the fire for a bit. Unfortunately, the fire alarm went off at 3am on the first night and at 12:30am on the third night of our stay. So our family awakened and went outside to wait for the fire department. Fortunately, both were false alarms. The hotel didn't not do a good job letting us know that it was safe to re enter the building, so we were outside waiting longer than necessary. To further exasperate the situation, the hotel is big, and oddly designed. The lack of signage made it difficult to find our room after the fire drill. Would likely not have been an issue if we went directly to our room, but we went to the main lobby to verify the false alarm. In addition, on our first night (at approximately 7:30am) there was some activity in the hallway, just outside our room, that resulted in something hitting the wall outside our room causing a picture to fall off the wall inside our room. This also awakened the family. Overall...we really like this hotel, but it could benefit from better signing and enforcing the No Smoking policy.

The rooms are always clean. This visit the hotel was nicely decorated for halloween. The food was good, but the bar service was a little slow, mainly because it was understaffed. The staff are very nice and we always enjoy our time there. The hot tub is not working and it truly needs to be removed as an amenity, as it has been out of order for our last three visits over the year.

The courtyard was pretty over grown, would have loved it if it wasnt so I could have enjoyed it. My biggest disappointment was the hot tub was not able to be used. You would think a large hotel like this could repair/maintain things in a more timely manner. We were there 5 days.

We had a great stay over Mother’s Day weekend! The room was large and had a small balcony. Buffet breakfast was delicious (definitely worth the $5 add on price when booking). Sunday they asked if we had reservations, which we didn’t, but we were still seated quickly. The heated pool was delightful. The hot tub was empty, which was a disappointment, but not a deal breaker. The inner courtyard was gorgeous.

When I first got to the hotel it seemed pretty and very neat. However, looks can be deceiving! The room had mold on the wall, multiple stains that were either blood or human feces on the bathroom and room walls, dirty tissues stuffed between the couch cushions, and cigarette butts all over the balcony from previous guests. The room had no bugs and didn’t stink so I thought I can get over some surface stains and not touch the couch. I went to the restaurant a couple times and they burnt my beef tenderloin to a well done steak when I asked for rare, the pasta marinara was so bland I had to add salt to give it a little flavor, and then the next morning I went down for breakfast and their Buffett was so gross I nearly gagged and just had coffee.

The bathtub in our room, while clean, had stains of rust around it that may be unacceptable to some guests. The AC, while set to 65, never got anywhere near that cool. I had to remove the comforter from the bed and sleep with only the sheets because the room would not get as cool as I would have liked it.

We booked last minute and checked in around 9pm. The desk staff were absolutely amazing! Kind, friendly, patient and knowledgeable. Our room was better than expected. We had a king room and the bed was so comfy! The tub made my day. The room itself was clean and cozy. We made it to the CK Pub with just minutes to spare before the kitchen closed. The bartender was friendly and patient and the food was well made. We had breakfast in the morning courtesy of our vouchers and it was more than we expected food and flavor wise. When we checked out I was shocked (pleasantly so) that the lovely staff member from the night before remembered my name. 10 out of 10 will definitely stay again!

The hotel is nice and a good value for money but they seem to be running a skeleton crew and everyone is spread thin doing multiple things. On our first night we went to the hotel’s restaurant and it was total chaos. In the time we were there the orders coming to the tables were all wrong and the poor waiter seemed to be seconds away from a meltdown. We decided to leave without ordering anything and other families did the same. Next day at breakfast my son’s fruit plate had strawberries with mold. I pointed that out to the waiter and to a manager. The only answer I got was “I’ll let the chef know.” Albeit these hiccups, we still had a positive experience and if in the area again, we would probably return.
