Hotels near Tulsa Historical Society & Museum, Tulsa

Only complaint was 2 of the 3 elevators were down. After that staff was great. Nice rooms to

There was a prolonged heat dome over Oklahoma a couple of weeks ago and it was no time for a hotel's AC to be having problems, but alas that was the case with the Aloft Tulsa Downtown. Two rooms we were given on the 10th floor had thermostat set to 68 but room temperatures of 79 and 81. Then we got moved to the 3rd floor, which was good the first day but then had the same problem the second day. The afternoon/evening desk person was nice and apologetic each time we came with an issue. Eventually a maintenance guy came up to the room at 10:30 at night and worked on it for a while. He managed to get it to where the temp would top out at 75 or so, which was livable. But it wasn't just a room issue; the whole hotel seemed to be struggling, as corridors were not cool and the desk people were keeping the lobby door open and had a large fan blowing at them. Otherwise, the room was clean and enjoyable, with a high ceiling and plenty of boutique touches similar to other Alofts. One of us didn't like how the bathroom was arranged with a sliding door and no good place to put the bathmat after a shower. The other of us was okay with the layout but didn't like that the middle position of the bathroom faucet gives hot water to drink. There are food items including a variety of items for breakfast on sale in the lobby. There is a pool that guests seemed to be enjoying and an outdoor table area and patio from which we could watch sunsets. The morning desk person had lots of interesting advice for things to see or do in Tulsa or outlying areas. For what it's worth, the Apple Maps app has the wrong idea where the hotel is and will take you to location that does you no good. You need to go to Denver and Fifth, then past the Tulsa County Central Library, and that's where the entrance is. Then once you've found it, there's a gate that has to open for you, both entering and leaving. And if you're just out for a walk, there are different gates for a human to use, which require a code to get back in - be sure to ask the desk person because they don't inform you otherwise. The reason for all that security may be the immediate area, which is not that appealing. Despite being the downtown, there isn't much going on there, even on weekdays. And sadly there is a homeless problem in the area, especially in front of the aforementioned library (which is a great facility if you go inside). About the most normal activity comes in the morning when lawyers and others enter the Tulsa County Courthouse which is opposite the library. Now maybe the area is more active when there is an event at the BOK Arena a couple of blocks away, or a convention is taking place at the Cox Business Center right behind the hotel, but when were there for three days, the area was just not happening (in stark contrast to Bricktown in OKC, where we had been previously).

There is a shop near the hotel, which is helpful. The correspondence of the staff is relatively kind. The hotel restaurant was nice. I was satisfied with almost everything.

Loved 😍 loved 😍 loved 😍 ❤️ this hotel! Cian the night clerk was the best!

Night personal more pleasant to guests than morning personal. Got on his bad side w/o trying. Room was clean (checked for bed bugs, it passed inspection) wifi was good, TV channels had wide variation. (It had CNN) breakfast was included, had a fair amount of choices.

Nina at the front desk helped me and she was awesome! I needed some help with printing several documents that I had misplaced and needed for a meeting. When I went to the front desk to ask for help, Nina was there with a smile and asked how she could assist. She quickly stopped what she had been working on and insisted on helping me right away. Nina printed the documents that I needed and delivered quickly. This was the only time that I have been in a pinch like this and needed help immediately and I was so happy that Nina was there to help me. She is great!

What a find! For a budget hotel, this really was fabulous. The lobby and our room were tastefully decorated and very clean. Everything was in good working order and nothing looked shabby or in need of repair. Our bed was very comfortable, although you might want to take your own pillow if possible. Our room had a few little extra features that were very helpful. In addition to the mini-fridge and microwave, there was a wet bar with an extra-long counter and a few kitchen-type cabinets. (I presume that they're extra storage for an extended stay.) In addition to the ample-sized desk, there was another table of the same height and depth. This means two people could have a desk, or the extra table could be used to stow luggage or other large items on top or underneath, or the two pieces could be placed end-to-end to make an extra long project table if needed. Kudos to the designer of this room and its furnishings. Cautions: there were plenty of electric outlets, although it was not necessarily easy to reach them, so if you have lots of electronics, take an extension cord or two. Also take your own toiletries. Thank you Hotel Glenpool for a very pleasant stay!
