Scholar State College, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

Parking offsite

Unique in that I recall the pool when I was a freshman in 1954. The location was very convenient. The room was spacious ( a suite). While the parking was "nearby" I can see that it could easily be "full" and at $12/day not sure that is worth it vs free-lot hotels not far away. The parking may be difficult for travelers with disabilities.

Close to everything, safe and easy free parking

It was not a big deal to me, but note that there is a small temporary parking area (3 spots) next to the hotel for unloading and checking in to your room. After that you need to move your car to the Pugh Street garage around the corner. Parking is $15/day.

Very friendly and helpful staff. The hotel is extremely clean and I love having a full refrigerator/freezer. Parking is right across the street and I appreciate using the key pass each time.

Great location to walk around State College and enjoy the night life -- Live Music and Great food! The hotel also had a great cocktail bar!

Checked in at 8:30 pm after 4 hour drive and asked how late restaurant was open. Was told restaurant until 10 and bar until 11. Went with family to eat and as we are eating the bill is brought to us and we were told they are closing at 9:30 and the staff started her side work and put all the bottles of alcohol away. Went to get coffee in the lobby in the morning and the coffee was empty, had to ask twice for it to be refilled. The room was very nice except there was garbage left over from the previous person, dirty dishes in dishwasher and the inside of the stove was disgustingly dirty. Not what we expected and disappointed. Called the front desk to discuss with the manager and was told by Noah that Emily would be calling me back. 6 hours later and still no call returned. Called back and was told she is very busy. We have stayed at many hotels in State College and this was our first disappointment.

Restaurant/bar closed too early for a Saturday night

The hotel was nice. Great central location, with an easy walk to campus. Nothing special, a standard hotel, but very clean and pleasant staff. I loved the complimentary aromatherapy hand soap, lotion, shampoo, conditioner and body wash. Not much in the way of amenities otherwise. I was disappointed to have to pay extra for parking in a garage as there was no street parking option. No breakfast included or even on site dining. The price was reasonable for what it was

It was nice in a contemporary aesthetic way. If breakfast or PARKING, had been included, that would be better. Staff friendly, helpful, especially bartender/waitress Monday 5/29/23.

Very nice, comfortable, clean and convenient hotel.

It is usually outstanding at this hotel; however, this time was the exception…there was no toilet paper, towels were not so new, the coffee maker was not working 😞

The shower was dirty and the bathroom exhaust fan didn't work and there were flies in our room when we arrived. Expected a bit better for the price.

New and very clean

Excellent location only exceeded by cleanliness of hotel and hospitality of staff.

Everything was very nice and super clean.

I was in State College for a conference. This hotel is right in town. Great location. Staff friendly & helpful. Parking garage easy to get in and out. Hotel and room clean. Would stay again.

Clean! Convenient location. Friendly staff!

Beautiful hotel and clean rooms.

It would have been easier if a compact refrigerator would have been available in our room to handle perishables such as milk for children. Otherwise no complaints. Very nice clean hotel.

Bring your earplugs!! Loved the property but we were very surprised to have been awaken very early morning with multiple garbage pick ups and smashing of dumpsters on a Sunday! Will definitely ask about that if I book again.

The hotel is close to campus, shopping, and restaurants, and clean. Our room was street side so we heard college kids walking home in the middle of the night. The walls were thin to hear neighbors' conversations through the bathroom as well. Regardless, I would stay again and bring a small noise machine.

Perfect location. Super cute suite. The room was very clean and the kitchen was an added bonus.

Convenient location with lots of walkable options for food and fun. Very updated rooms with lots of amenities including a kitchen.

TV needs a sound bar. It was barely audible.

Quiet hotel, comfortable beds. There will be some late night noise…you are in a college town and if you want the convenience of being downtown that’s to be expected. Can’t beat the location!

For the price they charged I was expecting luxury. Finishes in the room were cheap, there wasn't even a fan in the bathroom. Just didn't live up to my expectations.

We had one issue with our room, the HVAC system was so loud we could not sleep, however we called the front desk and were moved to a new suite immediately and given a credit. I always appreciate when a hotel acts quickly to fix a problem onsite, was impressed with the staff and management here. Otherwise this hotel is awesome on all other elements of our stay.

My only complaint was issues with the internet- I struggled the whole stay checking texts and email .

I had this booked since November 2024. I arrive at the property, and I am greeted at the front desk with the staff telling me that my room is not available due to maintenance issues. I was never contacted in advance about these "issues." They re-booked me at another property that was twice as far away from where I needed. The only compensation offered was two free drinks at the hotel I wasn't even staying at; why would I use those if I was not staying there. Someone needs to educate them about hospitality services!

Kara who worked the front desk on Friday night was wonderful and very helpful. Great location for bringing a student back to PSU.

The hotel has no power when I got there they sent me to the super 8 motel and made me pay the same rate for their hotel.when I was looking at hotels super 8 came up as 77 a night so I basically paid double to get sent from a hotel to a motel. I paid what I paid because I wanted somewhere very nice not a motel. But the staff were excellent and very helpful at the tapestry hotel they didn't even offer to give me any of my money back for going to a cheaper motel.

Very inconvenient parking. Have you go up a hill from parking garage and around the corner with all luggage to be able to get to lobby There were no sheets or blankets for the pull out bed. We called the front desk (which we had to call a couple of times to even get them to answer the phone) and we were told we had to go down and get them ourselves. They wouldn’t bring them up No one explained how to use the electricity since they have something way different than what people used The ac in the room turned off and we spent over 30 mins trying to figure it out. We finally tried calling the front desk again (which we tried calling multiple times with no answer). On the 3rd call from the phone in the room, I decided to also call on my cell to the main number for the hotel (which still didn’t answer the hotel room phone) BUT he did answer the cell phone within a couple of rings. I made a comment about them not answering the hotel room phone but that of course they answer the cell phone call. Guy didn’t seem phased. Same guy we had upon check in. He tells us that the AC in the bedroom is controlled by the front desk and they would have to turn it on and set it. (We had a bedroom suite, and yet, there were 2 thermostats. One in living room that we could control. And one in bedroom we couldn’t?!?! What happens when we get hot or cold in middle of night and want to change it? We would have to deal with calling a very unhelpful employee? Overall, none of us were happy

The property was woefully understaffed, but the staff that were there were very helpful and friendly. I couldn't check in early although I was told otherwise when I made the reservation. Reservation experience with EXPEDIA was unacceptable because I could not talk to a live person to straighten the problem out. As a result I was over charged on my final bill. No linen in the room for the pull out sofa. Nice hotel, poor operation. Would not stay there again unless I needed to be close to the Penn State campus. Will cancel my

I love this hotel. It is always clean and well kept. Towels are always new and fluffy. People at the front desk are kind and friendly. Location couldn’t be better.

The staff was very helpful, and the location is great!

Friendly staff- Michael at the front desk and Mark in the bar were both wonderfully friendly, helpful and courteous! The property was beautiful and well maintained. Great location!

Location was perfect! 2 blocks from downtown and all the activities for Penn State Arts Festival

Perfect location, large rooms and beautiful decor. We loved the kitchen and layout.

Great location property very well kept

We liked the convenience of this property to the university and walking around town. There are many shopping and dining options within a short distance. The room was clean and the hvac was quiet. Music from a neighboring establishment was bothersome on a Saturday night, but I suppose that comes with the downtown convenience. We would repeat on our next visit to the area.

Great hotel in the heart of state college.

Centrally located quite clean up-to-date and well managed. Very much the opposite of the other Hilton I initially try to check in a few miles away. Great job keep it up.

Clean, comfortable. Very convenient to Penn St., but not on the noisiest, busiest strip.

Perfect spot in State College. Centrally located to campus. Very nice and helpful staff. Comfortable and quiet rooms.

Close to downtown and Penn State campus b

Best place to be in central downtown State College. Everything in walking distance so no need to drive. This is our new go to Penn State hotel.

The size of the room, the amenities, and the comfortable bed were fabulous. The kitchenette was a huge bonus! Everything we needed for a good stay was in our room. The staff were all kind and accommodating. The location was beyond convenient. You could walk to so many restaurants, bars, shopping, and even Penn State. The only (minor) negatives were the lack of TV channels since the only live TV was through Netflix and the strong fried food smell from the restaurant. Regardless, our time at Scholar State College was superb!

Friendly staff, complimentary parking, good food. Didn’t like the pillows.

The hotel was nice, clean and friendly staff. One of the more comfortable sofa beds. For the price a breakfast should be included

Located downtown in walking distance of all bars and restaurants. Excellent staff at front desk and restaurant.Hotel rooms modern and clean.
