spent the weekend at the hotel to celebrate my friends (twins) 55th birthday. we had perfect rooms modern, clean and i cant say enough about the staff, we where treated very well. lots of great shopping and dining and sightseeing all with in main st.we will stay there again next year.thank you hotel bethlehem for making this weekend very speical.

After looking at several hotels in the area, I was attracted to the location of the hotel in the heart of the historic district of Bethlehem, PA. Although we were in town for the birth of our granddaughter, I knew we would have some time to relax and explore and wanted to make the most of our week in the the area. I was pleasantly surprised when we arrive to check in on Sunday. The hotel is grand in the style of classic hotels of the 20's, and the location was central to many of the highlights of the city. Accomodations were first class, we were upgraded to King suite, and the setup of the room was attactive and functional with a love seat, chair, king size bed, 3 drawer chest and a desk. Although the view was not particularly interesting, the bed was top notch with comfortable oversized down pillows and comforter. A coffee machine and supplies is in the room, and coffee is provided in the lobby every morning until 11AM. There is a decent bagel store across the street from the hotel, if you decide not to eat at the hotel restaurant for breakfast. The area restaurants are very good, with a fantastic Spanish Tapas restaurant across the street, and a beer brewery down the block, as well as Thai, Italian, Turkish, and other nice restaurants in close proximity. The hotel is in the historic district which has houses and buildings with historical interest in easy walking distance of the hotel. We ate at the Tap Room (one of the two hotel restaurants) on Thursday, and listened to live Jazz as we ate. The food was fantastic. Directly behind the hotel is the Lehigh Canal tow path which runs between Easton and Allentown, and is good for easy bike riding or walking. Also in close proximity (5 mins via car) is the south side which includes the new Sands Resort as well as Steel Stacks, the preserved site of the former Behtlehem Steel Corp, which is an new art and culture space for the city. I rate the hotel very high for elegance, comfort, location, and price. The service is very good. Note that closet space is limited with the rooms, and there is a $5 parking fee per day added to your bill. Oh! I forgot to add the nice gym on the third floor, and most rooms have a Jacuzzi bath.

Gorgeous and romantic and soooo "Christmas-y". The atmosphere is of the good old days, people are very nice and helpful. The restaurant is great but gets fully booked in the weekend so make sure to have your reservation in time.
My colleagues from my parent company in Italy, loved it. It is a real experience, I would highly recommend it especially during the winter holiday season

I had decided to reserve several rooms for our guest speakers for a workshop at Lehigh University. It was a positive experience from the get go. The hotel staff was amazingly cooperative, detail oriented, accommodating, flexible, and pleasant. The shuttle service was an extra benefit as it took the guests back and forth from the airport AND the workshop! This was really appreciated by our guests and by the university. The faculty wanted to take the speakers out to dinner and I suggested The Tap Room in Hotel Bethlehem to avoid the cold evening temperatures. It turned out to be the perfect atmosphere. The Tap Room was able to accommodate the dietary needs of all our guests and that was wonderful. All in all I must say this was the perfect arrangement for our needs and I am sure to use this hotel again.
