How Sweet It Is: Pennsylvania's Hotel Hershey


The Hotel Hershey in Hershey, Pennsylvania has it all – luxurious accommodations, private cottages, excellent dining, a world-class spa, two swimming pools, four golf courses, boutique shops, and, oh, so much more. And of course it is in the Sweetest Place on Earth.  

Located on a hill with a view of Hershey gardens and the countryside, The Hotel Hershey is a member of Historic Hotels of America. Built during the 1930s during the Great Depression, the construction meant that the people of Hershey had plenty of work during those dire times. It is just one of the many legacies of Milton S. Hershey. Mr. Hershey held a formal opening celebration on May 26, 1933, with a dinner and dance for 400 invited guests where he told his guests, "I am a simple farmer. I like to utilize nature's beauty for the pleasure of men. This hotel where you are assembled has been a dream of mine for many years . . . " 


The Chocolate Spa is as decadent at it sounds and it is just one of many things to enjoy.  Dine at their Four-Diamond restaurant, cook s’mores around the campfire, go ice skating year round, take a Segway tour, learn about falconry, and much more.  Guests get free tickets to the beautiful Hershey Gardens and discounts to other attractions in Hershey. It is family-friendly and regardless of age, no one ever wants to leave this sweet place. For more information, check thehotelhershey.com.
