Best Western Gettysburg

It appears some thoughtful planning has gone into its construction. It’s a great location and having a view from breakfast room of the cemetery -unforgettable! Can easily walk or drive to the site where Lincoln made his historic speech. Nicest staircase I’ve ever seen in a hotel. Nice carpet, walls look good. But topping it off is the art work! I mean I made an extra trip to the staircase just so I could enjoy it all. Well situated. Make a left, there’s plenty of restaurants and shops. Make a right, cross the street, and you will come to the entrance of the cemetery. less

The Best Western in Gettysburg has a great location, rooms are very nice, good breakfast and a great staff. My go to place when visiting, about 3 times a year. Book early or you may not be able to get a room. less

The hotel is pretty new - couple of years old - and convenient to town (at the southern end) and the battlefield. You can actually walk to the National Military Cemetery from there and as many others have mentioned, there is a driving entrance basically across from the hotel with easy access to the Battlefield Visitors Center and the driving tour. We used that entrance/exit several times to leave for breaks, meals, etc. Good restaurants are walking distance although it might be a little far to walk to the town circle area of downtown - about 1 mile - an easy walk for some especially if you want to avoid the downtown parking crush. Had a very nice walk to Mr. G's ice cream, about 1/2 mile one way. The room was roomy with a sofa and table facing the smallish TV (a bigger screen would have been nice!) and the free wi-fi was reliable and quick. Bed was comfortable. Bathroom was clean. Some quibbles with the free breakfast -- the cereals and yogurt and hard boiled egg selections were great. Never tried the waffles or pancake machines. The over-easy eggs and sausage patties that were out all 3 mornings we were there were overdone - it would have been nice to have scrambled and bacon or sausage links switched in. The breads seemed on the verge of going hard & stale. I tried one donut that was inedible - threw it out after one bite. Toasted an English muffin and that was fine. Some more selections of fresh fruit like a fruit salad or cocktail (even canned) would be great, and fresher and higher quality bread selections and it would raise my score to 5 stars. All staff were great, especially the breakfast ladies. Since it's new and it has the great breakfast room views, it's definitely one of the nicest Best Westerns you can stay at. Would recommend! less

We enjoyed our stay. Hotel is modern, clean and centrally located within walking distance to shops & restaurants. Ms. Barb the breakfast attendant deserves a special acknowledgement. She was super helpful and just a lovely spirit! less

Once again, everything was perfect for our group stay. The front desk staff (Kerry, Brian, Rhonda, Christine and Angela) were very helpful, courteous and friendly. The breakfast room folks (Deb and others) welcomed us every morning and provided a nice start to the day. The housekeeping staff (Ashley and Christana) kept the room clean and neat. And of course, Kelly was great to work with in handling the overall needs of our group, from scheduling to making other arrangements. A first class operation, and a beautiful hotel. less
