La Quinta Inn Branson on the Strip

Had a wonderful stay! Staff were very friendly and pleasant. My 2 huge dogs were welcomed without any question. The room was clean and comfortable. The breakfast was better than most I have had. Will definitely stay here again.

Rates worst out of our LaQuinta stays.
They called to ask if the room was acceptable, we said yes. Then we noticed…
Cereal all over floor from previous guest.
Springs in pull out was basically WIRE, and cut one of my kids. (After I bulked it up with anything and everything we could find)
Sheets that looked wrinkled from someone sleeping were folded in pullout couch (not fold wrinkles)
And that was all the extra bedding in the room.
Water spots on ceiling, cracked floor tiles, rusty shells in bathroom, towels with the seams frayed.
Family room with exterior entrance was convenient.
View of pool, nice
Pool smelled like bleach (clean) lol
And larger than many hotel pool areas
Breakfast wasn’t too bad for free hotel food.
Desk clerks nice, friendly, informative, knowledgeable of local shows,
Parking «lots and lots»
Price to sleep 8 was nice (family room) had the foldout mattress been replaced.
Owner needs to budget some money for remodeling

Literally BY FAR. one of the best la quintas I’ve ever stayed at… and I’m a 10 year elite member! I mean the pool… AMAZING …highly sanitary (take shower as soon you you get out) and beautiful, indoor, a whirlpool to DIE FOR! Extremely clean! the people at the front desk were beyond exceptional. Friendly, and unlike the horror at Manhattan la Quinta… accommodating to my status that I have paid so much for. ELITE MEMBERS Rejoice! The rooms are newly remodeled although a few things need updating… who cares when you are in a safe environment, plenty of parking… all non smoking. I felt safe with my children. and they even gave us ideas on the best attractions… you can purchase tickets to anything at the front desk instead of running around trying to find tickets. thank you la Quinta for this location

Wonderful hotel! Brought both of our German Shepards. They made us feel so comfortable and welcomed.

This place is very misleading from the pictures you see online to how it really is. My husband and I booked a king suite and as soon as we stepped in were highly disappointed since we were hoping to get the indoor suite next to pool area considering it was very cold outside. Once we saw the toilet in our original room had dried pee on it my husband requested they switch us to the indoor suite. It was nicer although they gave us a room with two queen beds, the only bad thing about it is that you can hear all the noise from the pool area and the pillows are terrible! But the pool area is great the hot tub is hooooot! The breakfast was not that great for me since I am a health freak. Other than that great location! In the center of everything!

Recycled property. Exterior appearance different. Caution local traffic is slow.
Friendly staff. Great greeting. Pricing & value comparable with locals.
King good size. Updated interior. Ok. WiFi works.
Give it a try. First time to Branson

This is our second stay at the Branson LQI. We have stayed at several other LQI’s as well. This one is not as nice or inexpensive as those properties, but it is often fully booked, as it was this weekend.
We stay here because it meets the needs of our whole family better than any one hotel we have found so far in Branson. Believe me, we have been here many times and stayed in many other hotels. I might not like chain restaurants, but I do like chain hotels because I want to know exactly what I’m getting each and every time.
The room we chose this time overlooked the pool, which my son and his friend greatly enjoyed. The pool and hot tub were nice to relax in on our little getaway, and the 3-​story waterfall is a lovely feature. The sound is relaxing, too, and can even be heard in the rooms. They turn it off and dim the lights in that area when the pool closes at 11:00 p.m.
The #1 reason we choose to stay here is because of the pet-​friendly policy of the LQI company. I can take my dog anywhere on property (except the pool or breakfast room, of course) and keep her at no extra charge. If I want to bring her in the lobby and enjoy a cup of coffee, or walk her down the hallway, that is my guest privilege. I enjoy having her with me and feeling welcome. Since our last stay they have added little «stands» of doggie doo pick-​up bags in the sodded areas to make it easy for people to pick up after their dogs. A welcome addition! Not long after we arrived, one of the front desk attendants asked my permission to take her photo for FB. If you don’t like dogs or the idea of them staying in the rooms, LQI may not be the right choice for you.
Our room was clean, comfortable, and in good repair. We enjoyed the free WIFI on our phones and laptop and my son enjoyed the computer in the lobby.
The grade of room we chose was listed to have a microwave and mini-​fridge on
. Neither of the rooms we booked had the microwave. When I asked about it at the front desk (I have food sensitivities and bring some of my own foods), they sent up a complimentary one in about 5 minutes. When I tried to tip the guy, he just looked at it and said, «you don’t have to do that.» I really think he felt he was just doing his job. (Gave it to him anyway, of course!)
The continental breakfast did not disappoint; most people will be very satisfied for many mornings with the wide variety of selections: Belgian waffles, bagels, toast, doughnuts, biscuits and gravy, sausage, scrambled and hard-​boiled eggs, coffee, hot tea, juices, cereals, apples, bananas, and oatmeal. Even I was able to find a couple of things to supplement my morning smoothie I packed. Next time I probably won’t need to pack anything. My morning coffee was really good, and they had several types of creamers available.
Incidentally, the coffee shop next door is no longer a Starbucks, so don’t get your hopes up. Also, just to make sure you know you are still in Branson, someone is sure come around to interrupt your meal, hawking their show and pushing their brochure at you. (This happens at every hotel continental breakfast. Learn to adapt.)
Within walking distance are several dining establishments if you aren’t up for getting back into the car to face the horrific Branson traffic again. Those restaurants/​bars are: The Rowdy Beaver, Fuddruckers, Thai Thai, Cold Stone Creamery, Taco Bell, Outback Restaurant, Outback Pub (NOT Outback Steakhouse), Mitsu Neko (sushi), and The Rib Crib. There are even more, depending on how far you want to walk.
Now, having bragged on what I like about the place, the hotel isn’t new, some of the hallway carpet is stained, and the pool surround needs repainted; but if, for under $ 100 bucks, you need a place to stay where your kids are happy and worn out from swimming, the beds are comfy, and even your insomniac husband can get a good night’s sleep, this might be the place for you. Because who wants to go on a vacation where you spend the whole time worrying if your dog is ok at home or listening to your husband growl all the way home because he didn’t sleep a wink?

Ants Ants Ants! Ended our vacation early. No other rooms available because it was Memorial Day weekend. And all other hotels were full.

as for the price it was very good. my room could have been a little cleaner. after i went down to the front desk to tell them about it. i asked for a refrigerator ($ 5 a day charge) which i was OK with, but they didn’t have one. they did find one & brought it up which was nice. the next day when we got back from silver dollar city my room key wasn’t working. so i go down to the front desk to tell them about it so i could get in my room. they turned off my room keys till i paid for the fridge. i thought was kind of a big inconvenience. lady said she tried to call, but we didn’t answer. which i told her the night before the phone wasn’t working. to me i think there might have been a better way to handle this. not sure what the deal is with the cleaning person on leaving be a tip envelope in the room to tip her like i was @ a resort or something. all in all it is on the strip & in the middle of everything. I’m not sure i would stay here again unless it was a super deal.

Not bad. AC/​heater unit was NOISY! Hardwood floors made the noise even worse. Bed was just OK. Breakfast was good with waffle makers, hard-​boiled eggs, biscuits n’ gravy, and sausages. Continental breakfast on steroids. Good water pressure, and our hot tub worked great. Good value if you book on Priceline or Hotwire, but expect that you will probably get double queen beds and you may have to pay for a king upgrade, or king with hot tub.

We booked our hotel stay on
with ease. The hotel staff was knowledgeable of the area since it was our first time in this city. From the internet pictures it didn’t look great. The hotel looks better in person. The rooms are clean, roomy and affordable for family of 4 during Christmas vacation. We requested adjoining rooms. and they accomodated ua with no complaints but with a smile. The complimentary was satisfactory if you have small children. So you don’t have to get dressed up to go out… just go down to the lobby. They even have hard boiled eggs! However the only complaint I had was the noisy heater… but for the price and location it is good.

It was the best deal I could find and they allowed my dog so I took a chance, and I’m so glad I did!
The rooms are newly renovated and clean. The free continental breakfast was great, and the Starbucks next door was a welcome surprise. Our room opened up to the pool area, which was kind of neat. We soaked in the hot tub after our long drive in the cold rain and met some nice fellow travelers.
We were pleased to find out that we were in a great location off the main strip as well. Branson is much larger than I expected and I didn’t have nearly enough time do experience everything so I will definitely plan on returning and staying at La Quinta when I do.
I also decided to try a few other La Quintas on my way across the country and was generally very pleased with this dog-​friendly chain.

For the money the value is tremendous! We were traveling back from New Mexico– ain’t never going back to Ruidoso again… when we decided to head for Branson to have a GOOD time. Only problem was that we had our 45 pound Candy with us. And we know that most places that will take a dog are less than wonderful. Well, we blindly selected a place out of one of the helpful travel guides that are free along the stops on the highway and booked a reservation. Wrong move. Got onto the main drag heading south to Branson and stopped at one of those travel places that will sell you tickets and offer you free deals IF you will be bored to death listening to a timeshare pitch. But– Good Golly Miss Molly! — this place actually knew what they were talking about when they got us a room for two nights at the LaQuinta (minus the timeshare presentation). CLEAN, newly refurbished with 2 queen beds, hardwood (or great imitation) floor, free breakfast and they take dogs. And a great location right on 76 near everything we were going to do. So, we had a great ending to our previous vacation to New Mexico– in Branson, helped greatly by this La Quinta Inn.
