    I booked the Gettysburg hotel in December 2022 as a Christmas present for my husband... At 3:00 PM, I receive a phone call from the hotel advising me that my room is not available, there are no rooms available due to renovations not completed on time and they have booked me at the Best Western... After expressing my displeasure, asking if there were any rooms available during our stay, asking if there was another hotel available (to which I was informed no on both counts), I requested the manager to send me the address of the Best Western... Upon hanging up, I found NUMEROUS hotels and inns with availability... I did not want to stay at the Best Western and booked at the Brickhouse Inn (which was comparably priced and very cute)... The fact that they never sent me information on the hotel they had booked for me is absolutely unacceptable...

    ...The stain was wet-to-touch and smelled of a mix of mold and what I thought was motor oil and, as it was between the entryway and bedroom, no way to avoid walking through it. Thinking there was a mechanical fluid leak flooding the room, I notified the front desk immediately... Upon notifying the front desk, I was told there were no other rooms available to move to and, that was it... No option, no offer to refund so we could seek out another hotel, nothing... Their solution, as they stated “ there is no hotel manager available” “and the room was already charged for” is to send housekeeping up to “cover it with towels so we would not have to walk through it” ( see photos)... Luckily for us, the windows open in the room so we could ventilate and not breathe in the oil fumes... **hotel management-check your system for contact info for guest who stayed in Room #416 on 2/10/23 for one night if you would like more information and additional photos...

    We traveled to Gettysburg to participate in a Strange Escapes weekend, and stayed at this hotel. The staff are friendly and helpful and the hotel and the rooms are very nice... We stayed in the oldest section of the hotel in the most haunted (we were told) room (311), although we didn't experience any paranormal activity during our stay... The only thing I can say that is somewhat negative is that our room didn't have a mini fridge or a microwave...

There's a municipal garage behind the hotel that charges a reasonable $12 per day for parking... Mo, at the front desk, took the time to give us several great recommendations for restaurants in town and was very welcoming when we arrived... The Starbucks downstairs worked well for breakfast on the day we left...

    ...Also we asked about the addition of a mini refrigerator but we were told it would add $50 to our already $200 + room rate. First time a refrigerator was not in a hotel room...

    ...We were attending a function, which utilized many of the common areas and meeting rooms... But we thought our overall experience at the hotel was positive... Staff were friendly and accommodating, and the restaurant attached (The Lincoln) was fantastic... Nice shower, comfy bed, comfortable temperature and plenty of room to spread out...

    ...The staff are friendly and helpful and the hotel and the rooms are very nice... The only thing I can say that is somewhat negative is that our room didn't have a mini fridge or a microwave... These are available in the hotel suites, but they don't have any in the standard rooms...

    Stayed here with my son for 3 days over Halloween and had a great time. We asked for and received Haunted room 311 (The Rachel suite)... Had a king bed which was very comfortable, decent size room which was very clean... The shower was great with lots of pressure... Had breakfast and dinner in One Lincoln the hotel restaurant and it was really good... Zoe and David were our main servers, they were great giving us refills before we ask... The front desk person,( Jen ) was happy and helpful with whatever I ask... Checked us in early as soon as our room was cleaned...

    From arrival to departure the staff at Gettysburg Hotel made my stay a delight. Quick check in, knowledgable staff (particularly with dining recommendations), and clear instructions for parking... My room was super clean and well appointed... NOTE: The rooms themselves are very quiet, private... Elevators are quick, ice machines on several floors... Excellent location for your trip to Gettysburg, right on the square... One Lincoln is not your average hotel restaurant- we enjoyed a lovely dinner there...

The Hotel and location were fabulous! Tristan at the front desk was very helpful, professional and extremely accommodating! He made us feel welcome as soon as we stepped foot onto the property...it is delightful to see this level of professionalism in the hospitality world! Please go visit and ask for Tristan (and also see Leo at the cozy bar)!

Decent hotel in a great location. Walk to everything with many shops and restaurants nearby. Public parking garage in rear. We stayed in a suite, which was small but well maintained, albeit the bathroom which was in disrepair and in desperate need of an upgrade. Overall, you are paying for location.

We loved this place. It was right in the square convenient to everything. We had a double queen room. Our room faced right on the square and had an electric fireplace. Big room which was nice because we had our adult daughter with us. Recommend

This is a fabulous hotel. The room was beautiful. Everything was newly remodeled. When I checked in Tristan was fabulous. Tristan helped with directions, places to eat and basically anything we needed. We had a fabulous stay. Location is close to everything. You can walk to eat, shop, the national cemetery and many attractions. I highly recommend the Gettysburg hotel. A+++ Thank you Tristan for a lovely stay

Our stay at the Gettysburg Hotel was perfect! The room was very clean and spacious. The location is absolutely perfect! We easily walked to shops and restaurants. (The connecting Starbucks was a plus, too.) The staff was personable and helpful. We will definitely stay again and recommend the Gettysburg Hotel to friends and family!

We stayed three nights and enjoyed our stay very much. We wondered if street noise would be an issue but it was not at night. We stayed in a queen suite which was very comfortable. We appreciated the fridge and microwave. Parking in the garage behind the hotel was very convenient with full in and out privileges. There are lots of great dining options within walking distance. We highly recommend the hotel and look forward to staying again.

The room service was inadequate. Had to call for trash to be taken, bed made. Bathroom was not cleaned. Cleaning service stated she forgot. Was cleaning too many rooms by herself. Blamed it on management. My Room was changed 2 times. First room was not what I booked. Website says jacuzzi and there aren't any. Was Upgraded to a larger room only to be flooded out by ice machine. Was moved to 3rd room in middle of the night, very small stated nothing available. Refrigerator was brought to room as there was none. Gave credit of 3 nights and a dinner. The hotel is under renovation which again doesn't state on website. Very disappointed since this was my first trip to relax since the passing of my husband. I would not recommend nor would I stay here again.

This is not indicative of our usual standards, and we will be addressing this matter with our team to ensure it does not happen again in the future.

Our goal is to provide our guests with a seamless experience, and we apologize for the disruptions you faced. We deeply regret the impact these issues had on your stay, especially given the circumstances surrounding your visit. We appreciate your understanding in accepting the credit for three nights and a dinner.

We were reluctant to stay here because they did not have a 2 bedroom for our large family so it would involve getting two room. Well we switched hotels and cam here for 2 nights, one of the best decisions of the trip. The rooms were roomy and noise proof, you could not hear anything from outside or within the hotel. AC unit was in top condition and don't let me start on the location. It has the best location I have seen for a Hotel, everything you want is a stone throw away so we could walk to different places for eating. There is a restaurant downstairs connected to the hotel that servers a very good breakfast. Friendly service staff, the furniture was also good and the bed comfortable. I would recommend this hotel, it made the Gettysburg stay a pleasure.

This wasn't our first stay at the Gettysburg Hotel, but it was definitely our best. Checking in, checking out, and for the duration of our stay; the staff never missed a beat. The room was very clean, the beds comfortable; and despite some work being done in the hotel, we were never inconvenienced. Additionally, the location is perfect for intown shopping and dining.
