Top hotels in South Omaha
Magnolia Hotel Omaha
The hotel is nice. We booked a room that was supposed to have robes & and drinks ready in our room. Nothing was there..:( It also smelled like an old hotel. It’s nice but I was expecting something more.

Hyatt Place Omaha Downtown Old Market
Stay was good. The property is older but they try to keep it in the best condition they can. Staff is friendly. Pool area was a little dark. Location was great, short walk to restaurants and the riverfront area. Parking is extra but worth it. Some people complained it's not secured but it was fine ...

Hotel Deco
Beautiful hotel. Very nice staff! Valet parking. Only thing that was hard was getting to and from due to outside street construction. Hotel itself was all around excellent!

Days Inn by Wyndham Omaha NE
The hotel is getting a glow up and it’s awesome. Staff super nice and helpful. My ONLY complaint is that the only gluten-free breakfast option was a banana or clementine. Although I love those, it would be nice to see some GF muffins or GF granola bars. That’s all!
