What guests think

Travellers describe stays at Penn Wells Hotel as centrally located and walkable, with friendly staff and useful amenities like an indoor pool, hot tub, and gym, though some areas reflect an older, budget-friendly property.

Rooms are often spacious and clean, but many note dated decor, small or awkward bathrooms, limited outlets, soft or worn mattresses, and occasional noise. Cleanliness is generally good, yet a handful of reviews cite maintenance lapses such as mold, odors, and, in one case, bedbugs. Breakfast is frequently appreciated, though several guests call it basic or repetitive and note that some dining options or hours can be limited. Expect a convenient, no-frills stay with notable differences between building sections, including some without elevators.

The staff were very friendly and helpful, especially the kitchen staff who prepared breakfast every morning. They were the BEST at keeping it clean and stocked from beginning to end. The hot breakfast was a great start to each day. The lounging area and fireplace are cozy and comfortable. We used the pool and jacuzzi also which were clean and well-maintained. It is the cleanest jacuzzi we've ever experienced and it didn't smell of chemicals. They empty and clean it often. Incredible! The rooms were also kept clean and yet we never saw the housekeeping staff do it. We called them our Room Fairies and they did a wonderful job. The location is perfect. We ate at the Penn Wells Hotel and highly recommend it! The food quality was excellent and surprisingly reasonably-priced and the historic atmosphere is an experience I'm glad we didn't miss. We can't wait to return!

Very convenient location for a visit to Wellsboro. The indoor pool, sauna, and hot tub are great - locals have memberships to use these facilities and will chat with you if you use them. This property is older, and not luxurious, but overall really nice. We like the free breakfast, too!

The property is a bit dated but that made it come across as charming given the historic vibe throughout this little town. Staff are very polite. Room was a good size. Some cobwebs and furniture was a little beat up, a spring hanging out of the bottom of a chair. The shower floor had permanent dark stains which was a little icky. Complimentary breakfast included scrambled eggs, sausage links, bananas, oatmeal and cereal, muffins and toast. Room included a refrigerator, microwave, and Keurig. Small tv but lots of channels. Free Wi-Fi.

Stay away. Bargain pricing should have told us something right from the start. Was to spend 2 days biking the PA Grand Canyon but left a day early because lodge was pretty disgusting. The public areas and stairwells are littered with cigarette butts and are truly filthy. A used coffee cup, 1/2 filled with old coffee and cigarette butts, sat on the stairs for the 24 hours we stayed. A power wash might take care of it but I don’t believe there’s anybody there who could do it. The staff all sit around in the lobby/breakfast area and talk to each other most of the day…felt like we were intruding. The rooms were just beaten to death…not dirty but a bathroom door that wouldn’t close properly, old carpeting, paint scratched off of the trim and an overall damness. Breakfast was decent with a toasted bagel, cereal and pre-made cheese omelettes. The indoor pool was obviously the huge draw for families with young children.

Bed was clean and super comfy. Bathroom needs a new shower curtain and fan vent was filthy. I would recommend the accommodations. Breakfast was free and a nice setup.

Fifteen to twenty men drinking heavily and being loud, drunk and boisterous outside rooms on lower level until 2:00 AM ... not just one night, but multiple nights. Complaints to staff ... didn't seem to care too much. Certainly will never use this motel again. Stay away unless you are an all night partier youself.

Excellent staff, so very nice and helpful. It was late and my iPhone was almost completely without a charge. I had forgotten my charging block and stopped by the front desk to ask if there was a 24 hour convenience store and she noticed I was carrying my charging wire without the block and asked if I needed a charging block and she said she believed there was a spare handy and she found it immediately. I was so glad. Again thank you ladies.

Odd that the indoor pool hours were 8am-8pm. Given most people's schedules, wouldn't 9am-9pm or 10pm, make more sense? Hot breakfast was good but the same each morning. Funky smell in the elevator. The total facility, however, gets a "A-"!

Pros: Modern hotel. Very friendly staff. Clean. Cons: Breakfast was nothing special. I would have liked a slightly nicer spread. We grabbed something else while on the road. Also, while we did not stay in the older part of the hotel. So, I don't know what that is like.
