Read Our Amherst & Buffalo, NY Hotel Reviews.

I've stayed at enough hotels to know when a place just *gets it*, and Reikart House in Buffalo? They just get it. One of the best in the Marriott portfolio. From the second you walk in there's this energy - not that try-hard boutique hotel vibe, but something that feels like your coolest friend's place if they had impeccable taste and a sick budget. The building itself is gorgeous (I think it's historic? someone told me but I was jet lagged) and everything just flows in a way that makes you want to explore every corner like you're uncovering little secrets. But here's the thing - and this is what separates the good from the GREAT - it's the staff that turns you from a guest into family. Marty and the management team have this whole operation running like a seductive dance where you're always the star. They remember your name, your drink preferences, probably your childhood pet's name if you mention it once. It's the kind of attention that makes you feel seen in a way that's honestly a bit intoxicating? Not gonna lie, I extend my stays here when I don't even need to because the vibes are that immaculate. Everyone on the team brings this genuine warmth that you can't fake - believe me I've experienced enough fake hospitality to know the difference. Special call out to Marty and Matt, both top notch. Oh and the COOKIES. The daily cookie giveaway situation is lowkey brilliant marketing because now I plan my entire afternoon around it (yes I'm 35, no I don't care). Fresh, warm, basically edible love notes that make you feel like someone's taking care of you. Which brings me to my one tiny piece of feedback - at this price point, the lack of an espresso machine is borderline criminal? Like I'm spoiled, I know, but when everything else is so dialed in, having to leave for my morning fix feels wrong. Get a proper espresso setup and this place will ascend absolute perfection. Would absolutely return (probably already have reservations tbh). Buffalo doesn't get enough credit and this hotel is proof the city's having a moment

Stayed here for a business trip. Very nice and clean rooms. Less than 10 minutes from the airport and around 10 minutes from where we were having our Regional work meeting.

Marty and the rest of the service team are amazing. They go above and beyond to make sure you have everything you need and more without making you feel like a burden. They deserve all the praise and then some!!!!

✨ A Hidden Gem of Elegance and Warmth – Reikart House, Buffalo ✨ From the moment we arrived at the Reikart House, it felt less like checking into a hotel and more like stepping into a living story. The air carries an immediate sense of calm — a graceful harmony of old-world charm and modern refinement. Every corner seems to tell its own tale: rich textures, ambient lighting, and artful details that speak softly of heritage and heart. We were warmly welcomed by Claudia and Marty, whose genuine hospitality set the tone for our entire stay. Their kindness, professionalism, and effortless warmth made us feel instantly at home — not as guests, but as part of the Reikart family. They embody the spirit of this remarkable place: gracious, attentive, and sincerely invested in creating a memorable experience. Our room was a sanctuary of quiet elegance — soothing tones, beautiful furnishings, and an unmistakable sense of serenity. The bed felt like a cloud, the linens crisp yet soft, and every thoughtful detail — from the curated décor to the morning aroma of fresh coffee — reflected the hotel’s dedication to comfort and artistry.
