We have just returned from our stay at Hotel Breakers while visiting Cedar Point for Halloweekends. There were 6 people in our party and we had reserved a Lakeview Suite which would accommodate all of us. We arrived at 9:15 am and we were happily surprised at check in that our room was ready. The check in staff was very pleasant and helpful. Check in took us a whole 10 minutes, then we were off to the park for the day. Literally a 5 minute walk to the gate! Location and Early Entrance are the two reasons we picked this resort for our stay this year. I wasn't too concerned about any of the amenities. After spending 14 hours running around Cedar Point, the only thing I was looking forward to was not having to drive. Our room as clean and comfortable, and to us, that's all that mattered. Our room was equipped with a frig, microwave and coffee maker. Very nice touches.
Location, location, location and early entrance. If this is what you are looking for with comfortable accommodations and friendly staff, then Hotel Breaker's is for you!! I will definitely be back next year.

I visited Hotel Breakers during Halloweekends in October. It was 3 other adults and myself, and we stayed for 2 nights.

The staff was very friendly and helpful, but the check in process was very long. We got everything ready at the desk and went up to the room, just to find out that 2 of our party was already in the room. The front desk never mentioned that anyone had checked in already. So we had to wait for all the tickets to be printed and all the paperwork to be done, only to find out that ½ of it was already done. It was a little annoying. But the staff was nice, so it was difficult to be upset. It was also a busy weekend.

The room was very average. It was in the older part of the hotel without elevator access and was a little confusing to get to. Nothing too special about the room itself: a TV, two beds, towels in the bathroom, and itchy sheets. The alarm clock didn’t work and kept blinking, even after we fixed it, so we had to unplug it the whole time. While we were gone all day Saturday the room service never can to our room, so we had to call the front desk for clean towel, which they brought in about 10-15 minutes (which was great!).

The hibachi restaurant was delicious and entertaining, and I would go again in a heartbeat. Fridays was average and expensive, but the wait staff was attentive. Perkins was kind of disgusting, but it was the only breakfast option. The eggs were very gross (fried on the outside, and runny on the inside.. for scrambled eggs…), but all the bread options were fine. The first day the waitress forgot about us, and we had to go to the front to pay and to page the waitress.

Check out was super easy, and the best part of the stay.

Overall, I would stay there again because it was average, and convenient. It was very close to the park, had package deals, and was relatively cheap

I was really worried about staying at this hotel after reading the bad reviews. However, we were able to get a room on the newer side (whew). We had a room reserved in the older part but since we asked to have a refrigerator in our room they gave us what they had available...and it just happened to be on the newer side. It was decent, nothing special. I would rate it a two star.

Check-in went smoothly (thankfully because it felt like they had the AC on) but don't expect them to know what is open when you ask. We ordered Dominos Pizza late Friday night because they told us nothing was open. We found out Saturday that TGI Fridays was...from a bartender at the park!
The room was clean, heat worked well, bed was average. Make sure you take the "do not disturb" off your door if you want it serviced. They won't come back.

Would I stay again? Probably. It's definitely a great location with a quick walk to the park. I would definitely want to be placed on the new side though.

Our family (wife, son 6, daughter 8) stayed at Hotel Breakers on Oct 13-14, 2012. We were driving up from Delaware, and wanted to go to the park for Saturday on our way to Illinois. We arrived around 1am, and the desk staff took care of getting us squared away. We got to the room, which did not appear to have been vacuumed with bits of stuff (non-food) on the floor.

The rooms at the Breakers are old, and not what I would expect from a hotel tied to an amusement park (I didn't expect Disney, but this was more two star motel - especially at the prices they charged). The beds were like springboards which bounced if anyone even twitched. Everything was "dated" in the room, tube TV, no microwave, etc.

Overall, the hotel was very convenient, since we could walk into the park - but based on the cleanliness and amenities, I would stay somewhere else next time.
