The DoubleTree Lancaster Resort has been Playful Parent tested and approved! Here are the top three reasons we choose this awesome hotel when visiting Lancaster County.
#1- YOUR HOME AWAY FROM HOME
What I love about the DoubleTree is that it feels like your home away from home. The staff are friendly and accommodating. We have stayed at the hotel a number of times. One thing I noticed is that they are willing to go above and beyond to make families comfortable. For an example, when traveling with friends they made sure we were close to each other even though the hotel was booked. It may sound silly but one of things we look most forward to are the fresh baked cookies. When you check in you are welcomed with a friendly smile and warm chocolate chip cookies. There’s something comforting about fresh baked cookies that make you feel right at home.
#2- INDOOR WATER PARK & ACCOMMODATIONS
My kids love staying at this hotel because of the awesome indoor pool, it’s like staying at a hotel with a water park. There are two pools in the spa area; one large lap pool and then a children’s pool with a no drop entry. There is a larger slide for children over 46 inches and than a smaller frog slide for the little ones. There are also fun water features such as buckets of water that pour over your head, rainbow fountain and splash area. A life guard is always on duty so its a great way to have safe fun.
There bathrooms right outside the fitness center which are very convenient. There is also an Arcade and outdoor play ground. In addition the hotel offers scheduled activities like family movie night and crafts for kids. Double Tree is dedicated to making sure your vacation is entertaining. The best part is all the extras are included with your hotel stay.
#3- LUXURIOUS ROOMS
The rooms are spacious and have everything you need from comfortable beds to mini fridge. The rooms are modern, classy and comfy. Housekeeping and customer service are first class; our room is always kept spotless. The views out the window are also spectacular.

You had me completely sold on the Double Tree Resort the second that I saw the indoor water park. It looks so fun for kids and adults! I love that they have a mini fridge in the rooms. That’s a must for me when I’m traveling.

What a lovely and family-friendly resort! I’ll be staying at a DoubleTree property in Minneapolis next month. I hope the rooms are as comfortable as the one you stayed in. I’m looking forward to enjoying one of their famous chocolate chip cookies. 🙂

A hotel that offers you warm cookies upon check-in? That sounds amazing! I remember as a child staying at hotels with cool indoor pools. It was always very exciting!

As soon as I saw your title I thought to myself ‘ohhhh I wonder if the one they stayed at had those yummy cookies?!!’ lol it’s seriously the little things that make all the difference! But I’m a little jealous that the one I stayed at didn’t have a water park!!

That indoor with activity pool is surely a nice idea of the resort. I am sure parents will definitely love this place for their kids.
