Staff was outstanding. Room was wonderful. The location and decor exceptional. The only knock was dinner at the Tap Room. In a word, the food was underwhelming. For the prices charged, I expected something a bit more than what appeared to be food reminiscent of a wedding banquet. What a shame. I will return to the Hotel Bethlehem, but dine at one of the many fine dining choices nearby.

Our stay was exceptional and very impressive - from the staff to our room to the beautiful decor and ambiance of the hotel. - couldn't have been better. We did not dine there, however, plan to return and enjoy the wonderful restaurants that are available to the guests. Highly recommend others to make a reservation. Thank you!

Room was lovely ad clean, amenities were nice.The hotel staff including wait staff at the restaurant on the Terrace was spotty, some were great, some have a lot to learn about customer service unfortunatly. It made our much anticipated stay at this no doubt beautiful historic hotel somewhat disappointing.

I booked s a stable starview room after receiving an email mentioning upgrades. I paid extra for the room because the Expedia listing showed it had a double sofa bed in the room. I mentioned this to the desk clerk immediately upon seeing the actual room, showed her the Expedia listing and she offered no resolution. While it was a beautiful hotel, the lack of customer service attention to the matter would probably stop me from booking it next time we see a concert in Bethlehem in a few months.
