Would stay here again!

The room was spacious, clean, and airy, and better than expected. Staff was friendly at check-in. We stayed here to visit Gettysburg College, and you could walk to campus if need be (we drove). Hotel is right smack in the middle of town and near lots of restaurants and shopping. Did not eat here so I can not comment on the food...

Lovely!

My husband and I had a very pleasant two night stay at the Best Western Plus. The staff was friendly and helpful and the room was clean and quiet. A rainy Saturday morning put the dining staff in a bit of a tizzy, but they remained professional and did their jobs well.

Stop by The Ragged Edge for coffee or some terrific baked oatmeal! Sit and write, or read one of the books in the front window. Everyone there is smiling.

Gettysburg

Visiting college pulled in late evening one weekday night and grabbed warm and substantial meal across the street at the Pub and take in the Battlefield after touring the campus. You never know if you'll be back.

Great Location

It was what I would expect from the Best Western chain. The best thing about the hotel was the location;;;right in the middle of town with plenty of pubs and restraunts. Parking behind the hotel is $7.95/nite in a covered garage. A short drive to the Gettysburg National Battlefield and other attractions like the new visitors center with a rejuvinated cyclorama exhitit which was great .

This is the perfect place to stay in the town of Gettysburg. Walking distance to so many shops restaurants and easy to drive to the visitors center for the tours. The price can't be beat

Beautiful!

We booked a room with 2 queen beds and a whirlpool tub. Hotel was beautiful, clean and well upkept. Our room was spacious, clean and well decorated. We had a view of the circle in the center of town. One of the nicest hotels we have stayed in. Would feel very comfortable recommending to anyone.
