Gettysburg is steeped in the history of the Civil War. The epic Battle of Gettysburg, in 1863, resulted in more than 50,000 casualties for the North and South combined. It is also, of course, the place where Abraham Lincoln delivered the immortal Gettysburg Address. The town itself is made up of houses, hotels and taverns dating back several centuries, but Gettysburg offers more modern travel and leisure activities, as well, like wine tastings, orchard tours, shopping and golfing.

We had a wonderful experience at the Swope. All the staff were very helpful and friendly throughout our stay there. It’s bigger than we thought it was inside. The most important for us at any accommodation are the mattresses…and ours was extremely comfortable to sleep on. The room was very clean and the bathroom spacious and updated. Water could have been a tad hotter but it wasn’t a detractor. Parking it close too. The breakfasts were very good and the dinning room was lovely and spacious. We thank all the staff and the owner and very much recommended anyone who loves B&Bs to stay there. It’s a beautiful well centered accommodation close to the heart of town.

We paid $636.95 for 3 nights in Wyndham hotel in Gettysburg, PA for a room that did not have microwave, refrigerator and working WiFi. The room with 2 queen beds was equipped with 1 (one)chair, 2 decaf (no regular) coffee bags, 4 cups with 2 lids. Empty wrapping paper from a candy bar was laying on the floor. Price did not include breakfast, that could be ordered for additional $15.00per person. Swimming pool was crowded throughout the whole time of our stay and when I went there once at 9:30PM there were no clean towels left. Hotel has 3 elevators but, on many occasions, we had to stand in line to be able to use them. The hallway on the 6th floor did not even have working A/C and the air was hot and stuffy. We have Blue Membership card but just because we booked the room via 3rd party website, we could not collect points! My advise is to stay away from Wyndham Hotels as we definitely will never patronize them again!

We had a very nice stay at the inn. The hotel is in a great location, and the room was large, clean, and quiet. Friendly, helpful staff. Only negative is that the bed was really hard … so unless you like a super firm mattress, bring along a foam topper!

We had an overnight here during a family vacation. The location is convenient and easy to find. Staff are friendly and professional. Water bottles and fresh cookies upon arrival were a nice perk! Our room was clean and comfortable. The a/c unit was nice - no noisy cycling on/off, and a quiet constant fan setting helped to block road noise from outside. The odd number rooms face the back, so they might be quieter. Our son was disappointed that the fitness center lacked free weights, but there is a treadmill and elliptical, if you want that. Breakfast was typical Hampton breakfast, fresh, well-stocked, clean area, friendly staff attending. I wish all Hamptons were this well run. I would return to this location, if we come here again.
