Booked the property, hoping that it lived up to what the images showed but the nice pictures are apparently from the property across the street that used to be attached to the hotel last year. The room that we had was very small, and woke up after night 1 to my wife finding a bedbug on her. The hotel has its cute quirks, but did not live up to what was hoped.

No microwave in room but overall a good stay
The room was clean and the bed was pretty comfortable. There was no microwave in the room, which was inconvenient, because we had to go down to the lower level to access a microwave used by several others. Staff was friendly.

The check in process was great, I mean the overall stay was great but the bathroom in my room wasn’t clean clean, had hair on the floor, hair on the shower faucet and hair in the sink. Other than that it was a good stay just those few issues

Pictures of property were taken when they first opened obviously. If you see pictures of a great pool or water park, they don’t have it, it’s just a very small pool and the hot tub is boarded up. My biggest complaint was my 6 year old daughter got black feet every time she walked around the hotel room floor. The whole place needs to be professionally shampooed. Price was a little over $100/nt, not bad but expected better for the price too. Restaurant barely open. On a side note, no alcohol options on site either. Overall, needs to be cleaned thoroughly, update to facilities, and there’s just better options to stay at in Branson. We won’t be back here.

No parking!!!!! Where do you expect your guest to park? Hallway smelled. Room had an oder that finally left. No remote for the TV and the front desk said they did not have access to get one. We have stayed here many times and it’s questionable If we would return again.

Comfortable and spacey enough for 2 adults. Pillow top mattress was a real treasure at bedtime. Beware checkout is at 10 though but it was ok. The staff re did the key so I could get our belongings. 11.50 breakfast buffet including drinks was very worthwhile as well.

The location is nice...away from the traffic, peaceful setting. The beds are wonderful and the room seems clean. But! The room, and really the pool area, outside grounds, etc is old or stained, or rusted, or overrun by weeds....just needs TLC and some updating. New management has just begun, apparently, so much will happen going forward, I'm sure.

Facility has been cut off from the water park next door; only food is a restaurant attached and only serves breakfast. Upon entering our room my husband severely hurt his ankle on the bed frame that was broken and sticking out.

The hotel looks nothing like the pictures, it is ok to stay for one night but if you have multiple nights planned then be prepared to get your own toilet tissues, garbage bags and make arrangements for meals. Door dash delivery were blocked by front desk to the room, although hotel policy allows dasher to deliver to room.

road construction separating Hillside Branson from The Lodges: terrible resolution of trying to separate properties. Very hard to get into and out of the now-single entrance. Putt-putt: never was, continues to be, poorly maintained without enough equipment for multiple players. LOSS OF SPLASHATORIUM: seriously, the one shining highlight of what once was a desirable place to stay with family. Without this, we sadly won't be back. And the Lodges are nice, but not affordable. Please make sure future customers are aware of the absence of the Splashatorium.

The hotel was great, clean and up to date and the staff was excellent. Only a couple of things. 1. Our sink would drain very slow. We did inform them when we checked out. 2. No free breakfast but had a restaurant next door, Stage Coach that only served breakfast and it did not look good at all, for $11.99. It worked out though because we food a great little place down the road. The location is Fantastic!! Away from all of the Branson traffic and mess and only 3 minute's from Table Rock Lake. Great food locations nearby that are local owned especially Danna' BBO and Burgers.
