Hyatt House Allentown-Lehigh Valley

Lovely stay in all areas

Amazing stay, staff was extremely helpful and really friendly

I'm a Globalist member with Hyatt; I spend a lot of nights in hotel rooms (including Hyatt Houses and Hyatt Places). My wife and I started taking weekend trips a few years ago to the Lehigh Valley area from our residence in lower Manhattan and while I've always wanted to stay at the Hyatt House / Hyatt Place in Allentown, the glut of IHG properties in the area and my desire to pay down my point balance with them had me booking elsewhere. We finally were able to stay this past weekend and were really impressed by how nice this property is and how well we were treated. The booking rate for the Hyatt House rooms were about the same as the Hyatt Place, so I booked in the House into their mid-level room offering, which is a studio suite with a sofa bed. I asked for a quiet room on a higher floor and were placed on the fifth (of six) floor, above the main entrance. The eastern-facing view was of a large field that someday may be built up; other sides face the highway or the large corporate complexes across the street (a huge Uline shipping center to the west and Air Products' global headquarters to the south). This is a new build property with both hotel brands sharing the same building and facilities. New builds are much nicer than the older, converted properties that have been re-branded under Hyatt. The studio was well laid our with high ceilings and large picture windows. The kitchen area has a large island with seating for two and a small dorm-sized fridge and freezer that is tucked under one side. There was also a combination microwave/convection oven, a small halogen cooktop, a 5-cup drip coffee maker, and a dishwasher. There's enough cookware, dishes and glasses, cutlerty, and silverware to have meals in the room; we heated up leftovers from a previous night's dinner, supplemented with some fresh local corn. The only thing that I would have liked in the room was a slot toaster, but that's a minor quibble. The overall decor was fresh and modern with a combination of LED lamps and fixtures. There was a large 55" LG LED TV on a swivel so it could be viewed from either the bedroom, living room, or kitchen. The breakfast was outstanding, especially when compared to other Hyatt Houses and Places; two modern commercial toasters and decent bread options, oatmeal, yogurt and fresh fruit, and a warm buffet with a lot of options (Day One - tater tots, pancakes, pork sausage, chicken sausage, sausage casserole with cheese, onions, and peppers, veggie quiche, and scrambled eggs. Day Two - breakfast potatoes, french toast sticks, pork sausage, chicken sausage, scrambled eggs, and scrambled eggs with cheddar). The staff were really nice to us and responded to my pre-arrival requests sent via SMS and during our stay. I have to give a special shout out for the welcome amenity that was waiting for us in our room, which was unexpected and really impressive. We will definitely stay here again.

Great hotel for family trip to Dorney Park and Lehigh Valley area.

I’ve stayed here twice. Visiting family in the area. The place is very convenient to get to, and the location is perfect for me. The staff are very friendly and helpful.

Every part of the hotel including the hallways and common areas extremely clean.Staff very friendly. Pool clean and well maintained, offers free breakfast.

Can’t think of anything!
