Is this loud enough to drown out noises from our hotel suite? We will put our 2 yr old down for naps but the older kids will be in the other room.

My one year old just used it at a hotel and my two year old, husband and I were up. He slept thru. He's a great sleeper tho. He did not sleep thru a tantrum however

No louder then a window mounted A/C unit. The bedroom is where I use my Whynter unit, for me the unit doesn't effect my sleep.

It is much louder than average. I have a 15 yr old son that sleeps through must alarms but not this because it can be turned up really high. Hope this help with your choice!

Mine is in a free-standing workshop and I do use earmuffs when it's running.It is not as loud as some but any of these systems might wake your kids two floors up.

In my opinion, it's a bit too loud to have near an infant if it's trying to sleep.

I don't know about compared to others because it's the only one I've owned, but you can hear it in the other room. I won't use mine while others are still sleeping, but if they are awake, I don't think it's loud enough to be a distraction.

I can't give you a decibels answer, but I can tell you that had it been in my bedroom at night, I would have used earplugs. It's not terribly loud, but if you're a light sleeper, it might be annoying. It worked relatively well in the 11x12 soap- curing room I used it in, but wouldn't do more than that. A window air conditioner worked better.

I guess it depends on how full you would pack it. It isn't any louder than others we have owned. But I definitely would not want to sleep next to it!

Unit has three different fan speed settings to help with noise. But my opinion is no, unit is not excessively loud. It is in my bedroom, I sleep with it on low.

For me, yes! I left it downstairs on a table and it even woke me up. I have to say it's fairly loud. My son didn't like to wear it so I would leave it on a table and we were able to hear it from multiple places in our home..

It can get pretty loud. We turn it up higher during the day when our 6 year old and dogs are running around the house and lower when we are all asleep at night. Either way, you can hear the sound machine on the baby monitor and I would definitely say it is louder than a high powered fan.

Definitely not a quiet fan, so if you are looking for noise this should work. We take it on trips for the same reason.

Hi Derek, my daughter has it in her bedroom and it is pretty damn loud and very clear. It should be great for a hotel room.

Yes! Just place it away from your little one so the sound can fill his or her nursery. I have 2 of these for 2 of my 3 kiddos - all 4 and under. My littlest's one's room is below his autistic big brother's and it's been an amazing relief to have the sound machine! The littlest will sleep through all of the craziness that happens in my eldest's room during "naptime"!

The best way for me to answer the question is to compare it to a ceiling fan. Compared that sound it is slightly louder. Not so loud that it can keep me from taking a nap on the couch. Hope this helps. We have been very pleased with the product.

Depends on your definition of loud. Will it wake up someone sleeping in the same room? Probably.

I doubt it, especially if you need it to cover any other noise. It's pretty quiet. It would probably only work for that if the room you are in is very quiet and you keep the fan very near your bed. If what you really need is ambient noise in a fairly small package, there are some small alarm clock radios with an ambient noise feature or just straight-up ambient noise generators with no clock or radio, like this one: HoMedics SS-2000G/F-AMZ Sound Spa Relaxation Machine with 6 Nature Sounds, Silver
