It's boutique hotel a lot of famous people stayed there from the Dali lama to JFK and more. The hotel is right in the middle of Historic Bethlehem lots of restaurants and shops! Check out Jim Thorp Pennsylvania only 30 to 45 minutes away. You won't regret it lots of shopping in Jim Thorp and you can take a scenic train ride about 2 to 3 hour ride. Lots of Historic stuff in Jim Thorp. We enjoyed our stay.

The location of this hotel is the main draw if you want to be in the center of town near restaurants, etc. The hotel has an old school, traditional feel with a fun, hustle and bustle energy. Unfortunately, the huge tacky posters and signs promoting their own hotel in the lobby and the fluorescent lighting in the rooms ruin the vibe for me.

Everyone should at least stay at these old world places at least once. We did not get a chance to use the Tap Room or any of the amenities at the hotel since it was Mother's day but once everyone went home, we got a chance to sit in the lobby and take in the grandness of it all. We stayed in 628 and the bathroom was run downed with a cracked sink, peeling paint, and a cracked seat in the shower. The room was better and well appointed. I was wondering if you get this type of room when you use a third party reservation place like Hotels.com.

This hotel has a monopoly given its location. The staff is one of the nicest, in particular the guys outside helping with parking and luggage. However, the hotel needs a makeover. The rooms are tiny, in doubles no queen beds but full. The gym is pathetic (the main machine is missing handles so it is almost useless). Dinner food was ok to good, red wine was bad. But again, helpful and lovely staff.

Beautiful hotel located in the historic district of Bethlehem. The lobby and rooms are beautifully decorated. The staff is so friendly and helpful from the guys parking cars and directing you to the parking lot to the receptionist as you check-in. The person who checked us in was particularly wonderful as she made the extra effort to talk to my daughter about the college she is attending, her major, etc. The personal touch was very much appreciated. We always try to stay at Hotel Bethlehem - when it isn't fully booked!

A throwback to the classic Hollywood hotels seen only in 1940s & 1950s movies, with gorgeous dining rooms & ballrooms, spacious rooms tastefully furnished with antiques, a staff eager to help, a British pub-like bar, mixologists moonlighting as bartenders with stories to tell, and wall of photographs highlighting the many rich & famous guests. And the best room service breakfast in bed at a reasonable price.
