This is the best hidden gem in Bethlehem. We have been coming to the area for four years, as our child is a student at Lehigh University. There is no better place to stay in Bethlehem than the Wilbur Mansion--it has become our "go to" place! Clean and quiet and elegant. Love everything about it! Highly recommend!

I really like this hotel. It’s the perfect blend of historic building with modern amenities. Bed comfortable, really nice bathroom, simple but stylish furnishings. Would definitely recommend if you need to stay in the Bethlehem area and I would stay again. The people working here are very nice too.

Beautiful Mansion

Mansion is beautiful! Comfortable beds, friendly staff. However the rooms are like echo chambers, if someone sneezes in a room 2 doors down, you WILL hear it. There was a rowdy bridal party above us that partied until 3am, and then people yelling in the halls at 630am. Even with ear plugs we didn’t get much rest.

Fantastic, simply AMAZING welcome, gorgeous historic hotel, lots of parking space. They let us in after our red eye flight earlier than the check-in time since the room was ready. They have a restaurant inside the hotel. All was amazing. The only thing was the breakfast; it said breakfast included, but they told me that hot breakfast is served on weekends only, instead they will bring a basket in the morning. Like a clock, it was at the door in the morning- coffee, orange juice, peach and an apple pie. Sadly I couldn’t eat it, because I don’t eat sugar for breakfast, my son gladly did. Despite the breakfast thing I’d still stay here again and would highly recommend it, just would plan on breakfast. Thanks again for your hospitality. We enjoyed it!

My child is a senior at Lehigh University, and I have stayed at many places in Bethlehem over the last three years. The Wilbur Mansion is, by far, the best! Quaint and modern, with elegant touches. The bed was so comfortable, and the sheets were so soft. The breakfast basket delivered to our door unsolicited in the morning was a wonderful treat. I will definitely stay again--sorry it took me so long to find this gem! 10+/10

Wilbur Mansion is nice.

Beautiful old building, amazing woodwork thru out. Great view, very nice room. Was alittle disappointed that we did not get to eat at their restaurant, but they were not open on Monday.

Really beautiful experience staying in an historic mansion that feels very much like a boutique hotel and not a B&B. Amazing bathroom, superior bed and pillows. Loved the continental breakfast delivery in the morning with plenty of keurig coffee in the room. Trulu wish there were more hotels like this!
