Did feel let down that our room wasn’t as nice as my husband and grandsons was. My husband was very excited to show me what Carbondale, his home town, had to offer in the way of convenience and comfort at your hotel. The staff was very accommodating and friendly, especially the young lady at the breakfast bar.

Love the easy access breakfast and dinner you had. But the area around the hotel seemed deserted and felt unsafe where I parked my car.

Hi James, We’re thrilled you had a wonderful stay at Hotel Anthracite. It’s terrific to hear you enjoyed the location and dining in the restaurant. We’re sorry you felt uneasy parking your car. Our covered parking garage is for the exclusive use of hotel guests and is just steps away from the entrance to the hotel’s Courtyard. Carbondale is a typically quiet small town and Hotel Anthracite is located a half block from the police station. We hope that will make you more at ease during your next visit to Carbondale.

Unique atmosphere, pleasant rooms. Breakfast that was provided was adequate, but I would have liked to have had the "hostess" show me the egg cups and sandwiches as a unique offering, rather than having discovered them after I had settled for toasting an English muffin. Also, had to track down some

I was pleasantly surprised by this hotel. Clean, newly renovated or constructed friendly staff. And the continental breakfast was also better than expected. High end teas, a fridge of breakfast sandwiches to warm in the adjacent microwave.

No surprises here

Second time here and still love it. Breakfast was different this time. If you just wanted coffee and cold cereal you could go to the breakfast room. If you wanted a full made to order breakfast, you could go to the restaurant and eat for free with your coupon. Very comfortable hotel with a friendly staff. Be sure to stop next door at MacDonells for a fun meal.
