Reviews are a mixed bag https://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotel_Feature-g52970-d19882687-zft1-Cartoon_Network_Hotel.html
Kids are 10, 14 and 6. Trying to avoid the Marvel hotel in NYC but do a “themed hotel” experience. Any other good ones? (That are not in the Poconos I.e. 70s shag romance champagne glass hot tub) |
The 6 and 10 years olds will like it, the 14 year old will be bored. They took an old motel but then updated each room to be themed. They also have kids activities (with people leading them) if you go on various weekends. The outdoor pool is decent in summer. Then it's walking distance from the Dutch Wonderland amusement park, which your 6 year old will love, and 10 year old will bear, and 14 year old will complain about. |
big no |
It's cute on the outside but the reviews suggest a VERY hard pass. |
It's fine. It's a motel that has been updated, cleaned and painted and the themeing is cool but it's still a motel in the parking lot of an amusement park meant for kids under 8. And that age group will love it, both the motel and the park. They have bunk beds where the kids can watch cartoons in bed and mine loved that. And the pool area is nice, both indoor and outdoor.
For a motel in Lancaster, it's a good time for one night. And if your 14 year old likes shopping, there's an outlet mall across the street. But if they don't like any of the Cartoon Network shows, they may not really be impressed. |
What's the Marvel hotel in NYC? |
Noooooo |
Don’t do it if you or your kids have mold allergies or asthma. It’s a gross motel where the carpet seems constantly damp and it has those wall air conditioners that I swear always make me sick
Our kids loved it. I will never stay there again |
We stayed a couple years ago when when my kids were 6 and 4 and they liked it (bunk beds are always a hit) and it was convenient for visitng Dutch Wonderland. The younger one still brings up the outdoor pool, lol. I'd only go if you're visiting Dutch Wonderland, the hotel itself is not worth a standalone visit. |
Yeah, what is this? When I googled, I got results for a Marvel NYC themed hotel at Disneyland Paris. When we went to Dutch Wonderland, we stayed at the Eden resort instead of the Cartoon Network Hotel because of the poor reviews. My kids liked the pool and splash pad at Eden a lot. |
If you want a themed hotel nearby, you should go to one of the Hershey ones. |
