SU Hotel

[NHcuse]

Now that the bb schedule has been announced I'm looking for a hotel for the unc game. Saddened that the Sheraton closed but I understand. I've heard good things about Hotel Syracuse...is there a new go to SU GameDay Hotel? Thx for your help!

Genesee grand was always great and easy to walk to Dome. It’s now Called the Collegian Hotel. Thats always where espn crew would hang too after.

We had a good experience at the Parkview when we came up for the Stanford game. 15 minute walk to the Dome.

well, according to CNY, it's a housing crisis. This is an interesting hot take.
Doesn't help get a room, which is why we cancelled a trip last year.

You'll be hearing about a new hotel and conference center near campus soon.

Cool. Some hotel chain is going to make a whole lot of money here.

Let's see which one saw the opportunity and took it.

Guessing it is Sheraton given their knowledge of the market but let's see what happens.

Also interested in the location.

I am guessing the 1200 block of East Genesee and/or 411 and 413 University are the most likely locations.

Thoughts from our local real estate mavens?

A developer razed a Syracuse city block. Now its plan to build new housing is on hold

New Jersey company tore down 12 homes and an apartment building last year.

It will be interesting if it is a conference center. They need rooms more than meeting space and Sheraton is Marriott which makes sense as does Hilton or IHG as the only other 2 players. Independent flag would be interesting.

Yep they made some renovations a few years ago which made it nicer

Suggestion is make sure you get a new room here.

It's a night and day difference if you get a new room vs an old one.

Not sure of the exact location but it will be near campus. I'm also told it will be University owned and may not have a national brand/operator like the Sheraton did even though the university owned it.

I can only imagine what a dump it was before. They definitely improved the lobby and the restaurant. But the rooms are horrendous and they have the worst beds/mattresses of any hotel I've stayed in.

I prefer to go farther away now than stay there for games. Though I do like the Hotel Skylar -- it's walkable and a hilton property. Old converted synagogue. kind of quirky and it's small...but the rooms are all nice and it's way better than the collegian.

Yeah rooms weren't great since I last stayed there but it was five years ago. Would imagine with the Sheraton gone it'll get more occupancy

Haven't stayed at the Skylar yet but will give it a try next time I'm on campus

They haven't gotten better since -- was there last year for a basketball game. Def. check out the Skylar.

Another hotel will be a great addition and very necessary.
