Best Hotels near Cottage Antiques and Crafts LLC, South Whitehall Township

We always stay at HIE in Allentown, PA and Charlotte NC. This HIE in Allentown is great. The front desk is the best I have ever encountered. Felicia (?) she is always there, bent over backwards to accomodate us regarding a request we made. She is always pleasant and professional. The rooms were immaculate as always. Breakfast has many choices. Great Coffee. Will stay again!

Excellent much better cleaning perfect all beautiful clean and above all warm water hehe to be the first time we were there we liked it a lot 😉

We just stopped for one night— en route from MO to ME— In the morning as we were getting ready to leave, I dropped my (gas permeable special order) contact lens and heard it hit the porcelain and leave sight. I just knew it had gone down the drain. I panicked. My husband suggested I call the front desk. I tried to calmly explain what had happened as I panicked. The lady that answered said she’d call me right back. Just a couple minutes later there was a knock at the door. It was Rose and Katie, as we now know. They explained that the maintenance guy wasn’t there right now. (It was a Sunday morning) Rose had some very big metal tools. She immediately got down to the ground under the sink to take a look. (Katie let me know that she had also had contacts since she was 12 like me so she knew how devastating this was.) My husband as Rose took turns on the plumbing to get the pipes undone. Once the pipes were off we started the excavation. We first ran water through the faucet to flush it. We collected it in an ice bucket and searched the runoff. No luck. Next we focused on the disconnected pipe. There is a lot of sludge in pipes. So Rose started the excavation on the pipe, working over a towel and an ice bucket to pan the sludge. Meanwhile Katie and I searched the floors, drain, etc… sometimes with the lights off because she said that was helpful to see the shining on the lens. Her fastidiousness and resolve kept me calm. I was giving up. It had been easily an hour and a half. I was ready to move on. I was telling everyone thanks for the help but it was going to be ok and that we should all stop the effort. Then, like a beacon in a storm, Katie came over with some sludge in a coffee filter, poking at something with a coffee stir stick and saying, “Is this it? Is it shriveled up?” I examined the specimen incredulously at first and then with a mix of stun, horror, and amazement I pushed my finger down into the muck and there it was, cupping to my finger like my good little lens: The Contact. Post script: Turns out Rose was the breakfast lady! We were like ha we missed breakfast and she saved us some (she recommends the sausage biscuit) Then she told me to take a banana for my husband because he looked a little shaky. We don’t know Katie’s roll at the hotel but I’m assuming she’s on her way to the very top! Thanks again ladies, we’ll certainly never forget! Lovely ladies. We’ll never forget. Thank you!!!

The room is quite big, there is a gym and swimming pool, there are not many choices for breakfast, and the parking lot is quite large, so you don't have to worry about having no place to park. Since it is a Marriott hotel, the service is of a certain standard.

This hotel is very difficult to find, especially in the dark… signage is minimal if any. No real directions on where to park. There is a parking garage attached to the building. No safety measures that we could see; anyone could enter the maze of hallways…a gauntlet of twists & turns that you have to navigate on foot in order to find the actual hotel. UNSAFE!!!We were told NO luggage carts so be sure and pack lightly. Check in took FOREVER and there was no body in front of us. Front desk clerk was however very knowledgeable. No ice that we knew of. ***Excellent breakfast buffet on the weekend …it blew us away!!!AND very pleasant hostess. Requests were not met for additional towels. We would not stay here again even though we are loyal to Marriott.

We have stayed here for more than a week, the overall facilities of the hotel are very good, the only thing is that the breakfast is not good, the breakfast variety is very small, and it is exactly the same every day. The room design is bright, the bathroom faucet is fast, and there are simple kitchen facilities such as refrigerator microwave sink tableware. There is a gym laundry pool in the lobby. The hotel is recommended

While the staff was amazing and friendly, my stay quickly became a nightmare the morning I was supposed to check out. In the early morning on the day I was to check out, I was startled awake by rustling noises only to discover a mouse in my room. I quickly showered and went to pack up and discovered mouse droppings all over the top of the counter and along the base of the pull-out couch. The mouse ran through the room a couple of times between the couch, bed and under the fridge. As I finished getting ready for my day, I had dropped my charger along the one side of the couch, only to discover a stain and an old used condom. While the staff was so kind, shocked, and apologetic, I’m shocked that the room was not as clean as I had initially thought. Upon coming home, I also discovered that the mouse chewed through a pair of my bike shorts. Again, the staff was amazing, and I received a full refund for my visit, but this is definitely something to be aware of. Maybe this is an issue due to covid and not being staffed properly, but it’s definitely not something you would expect to find in a higher rated hotel. I highly suggest you check your room over before unpacking.

Several years ago I stayed in an Ascend Hotel in Gettysburg, PA. The building was an old school house that had been converted to a hotel. It was truly unique and very nice. The large rooms were beautifully furnished and comfortable. For some crazy reason, I thought all Choice Hotels Ascend hotels would be the same - unique and nice. I was so wrong. The Allentown Park Hotel is a worn out Hampton Hotel. Yes, the carpeting in our room had been replaced as well as the lobby furniture. Everything else was shabby, old and in need of replacement. The carpet in the hallway is stained and there is a hole in the carpet outside our room. The wallpaper in the hallway is stained and scratched. In the one elevator that works, there is a large, tacky outdoor mat on the floor. Not sure what's that's about. The toiletries are not Bath and Body, but something I don't recognize. The highway noise is loud. Bottom line, I'm disappointed. And yes, it really is an old, worn out Hampton Inn. There is blue painter's tape on the sign on the back of our room door covering the Hampton name.
