The Retro Hotel has recently been renovated and features a mid-century modern design. The rooms were comfortable and air conditioning made the room very cool on a hot summer day. We enjoyed the pool and my older kids liked that it had a deep end of 9 ft. There was plenty of hot water for showers. A continental breakfast is provided. If you are looking for a budget stay that is nostalgic and close to everything this is the place to stay.

This hotel is near all the activity and offers clean, comfortable rooms. The front office staff is delightful. Our room was located around the back with parking directly in front of our room. It was a very safe location. Great stay!

First time Branson visit.

The person at the front desk was really nice and helpful. When getting into our room there were dirty towels behind the bathroom door and when the front desk was told they jumped up and took care of it immediately. She also recommended a place to eat that was some of the best food we have had. Overall the room was nice, the beds were not the best but nothing is like home so I understand that. The hotel could use some cleaning up on the property and some paint but it was still a very nice stay. I would definitely stay again.

Keep looking. You can do better.

I don't know how this hotel has been getting 10's. The level of cleanliness was the bare minimum. The floor needed scrubbed, there are small stains on the towels and bed covers, and caulk in the shower and around the front door was dirty. There is veneer missing from the furniture and caulk cracking out around the door. We were there on a really hot day the week after Memorial Day, but the pool was closed. They just put the chemicals in and there was no explanation of why the pool wasn't ready. The lady just said there wasn't anything that she could do about it. Not helpful! Keep looking. You can do much better than this hotel.
