Best Western Inn & Suites of Macon

Just spent an overnight at this BW along hwy 475 and we were so surprised at the quality I had to write a review! Dog-​friendly room was absolutely pristine. Shower was awesome with tons of pressure and clean and fresh. Grounds are lovely with lush grass, free of debris, and beautifully landscaped. Front desk staff was exceedingly welcoming and the woman who ran the dining room is going to put local restaurants out of business! She was exceptional and clearly proud of her work. They far surpassed our expectations for a quick overnight stay during our road trip.

This is weird but the best thing about my stay was the pillows. I have a hard time finding a good pillow and usually bring mine from home but I forgot this time but had a great night sleep on theirs. I’ll have to buy one. The bed was very comfortable. Nice large room with fridge and microwave. The fridge was a little loud so I unplugged it and slept well. I must say I was a little disappointed when I saw the place with outside doors and the outside looks a little older and the lobby was not impressive but the room was very nice and comfortable even with a couch and large TV. It’s cheaper to book directly with hotel. Cost me $ 30 more through a service. Great deal (with breakfast) for the $.

Clean! Small gym, but they have weight machine, two treadmills and an elliptical so I got my sweat on. Nice breakfast includes scrambled eggs, sausage, waffles, biscuits, fruits, juice, milk and the coffee is great. Little lady making waffles is cheerful and sweet as the honey I put on my biscuits! Awesome value! We won’t stop anywhere else on our route.

This was an unexpected stop that turned into an unexpected and pleasant surprise. This BW is handy to the Macon bypass and has a number of restaurants and shops nearby. But the important thing is it’s spotless clean and very well maintained. The staff are very welcoming and the indoor pool is a nice touch. Can’t wait for breakfast!

Very moderate prices, very moderate appointments. Nice big room with king bed and couch and fridge/​micro. Everything nice and clean. Tasty hot breakfast, pleasant staff. However, several minor annoyances: we were approached by a pan-​handler in the parking lot (making me a bit uneasy), we were initially put into the wrong room (we’d reserved a king but they sent us to a double and they quickly changed us), really limited restaurant choices in walking distance, thick lumpy pillows, mechanical noise from the fridge all night, kind of skimpy toiletries. Nothing awful; it all added up to a meh experience for a modest price. Since there are so many choices in the area, I’d probably try a different place next time.

Wow, what an improvement this place has made.
I used to stay here weekly on my treks from Jacksonville to Nashville and back. Just a few years ago this was not much more than a place to crash for the night at a cheap rate, and you never knew if you were leaving with a dose of Hepatitis C. My how things have changed.
The entire hotel has had a facelift. The rooms are beautiful, 32″ flatscreens are a welcome addition compared to the old 21″ sets, the Wifi works pretty well (I’m sure this is dependent on where you’re located), bathrooms have been updated, and the complimentary breakfast is a fantastic way to start your day. They’ve even enclosed the pool and added an exercise facility and a business center. This is far and away the nicest Best Western I’ve ever stayed at.
Very convenient location, lots of restaurants and stuff nearby. Check out Whiskey River while you’re in town. Highly recommended.

This was truly a very good BW. I stopped overnight during a long road trip and was very impressed. Matt H pictures are accurate and recent. The room was very clean with updated furniture and TV. Could maybe use new carpet is only negative that I could find. The night staff was very pleasant. I normally stay away from the motel setup but I was very comfortable with the outside lighting and that the staff would monitor the security cameras. Glad I made the stop!

Great place. Non-​smoking Room very clean. Did not smell any traces of cigarette smoke. Clean smelling linen. Staff friendly. Def coming again when in the area. Waffles are ehh ehh not so tasty.

Pros: Nice sized rooms, clean room, great TV, great cable channels, good A/​C, decent breakfast, very nice employees.
Cons: They give you free Wi-​Fi but it is REALLY REALLY slow.
The bacon at breakfast was so thin it must have been sliced by a laser and then dipped in grease. Other than that the breakfast was decent.

Upon moving back to Tampa, we stayed at three hotels along the way, two of which were Best Western. I this was had the BEST breakfast by far, being that the eggs and bacon were fresh and not just microwaved egg patties like the best Western that we stayed at in Kansas City, MO. The room was just okay which is why I’m giving it four stars. Also, the breakfast attendant that was there the day was a gem.

Nicest roadside motel I’ve ever stayed at over many trips north after moving to Florida 8 years ago. Clean large room at a very affordable price ($ 66 through Costco travel) and delicious included breakfast with very attentive staff. Will make it a point to return.

This place a great! I had none of the issues others have mentioned. I booked 2 rooms online in advance. When we arrived we got rooms next to each other, which doesn’t usually happen. The rooms were large. The carpet had some staining, but was clean. I checked for bed bugs and found none. The bed and pillows were nice, the tv was large and updated and had lots of channels. Also had a new massaging shower head which was much appreciated. The outside corridors allow a bit of parking lot noise but nothing that kept me awake. The real star was breakfast though! There were eggs, bacon, sausage, biscuits and gravy, yougurt, fruit… Very impressive! Room including tax was 63. Great value! Easy on and off highway with lots of dinner options.

Enjoyed the stay! Great deal for a clean suite with one of best showers in any hotel.
The value to cost ratio justifies a five star!

This place is a total dump. My room REAKS of mold. I don’t think the sheets have been changed! Front desk staff terrific.

I’m leaving this hotel 5 stars, not because it’s the best hotel I’ve ever been to, but because it’s by far it’s the nicest DOG hotel that I’ve been to. We’ve stayed at some pretty scary places off the highway due to needing a dog friendly place. It was very clean, the beds were comfortable, lots of nice pillows, indoor pool and complementary breakfast. I saw the other review that mentioned bedbugs but I didn’t have any issue like the.

We booked through Expedia so we couldn’t check
although they weren’t listed yet (we learned later). So, I left family & luggage in car & did bedbug check & we checked out of hotel… I found small bedbug on 2^nd mattress. I told front desk they were very nice & apologetic & gave us full refund.

Nice and clean place. Good hot breakfast in the morning. Will stay again.
