If you don't like cookie cutter mega chain hotels, this is a beautiful place to stay. Comfortable room. Historical hotel in a great area. Real room keys. Not a magnetic card. Nice lounge. Good breakfast buffet. The worst thing I could say is there are some cracks in the bathroom tiles. Doesn't affect the overall feeling of the place. Adds character.

This was the Historic Penn-Wells hotel. It was like stepping beck in time. Dave, who was behind the counter when we arrived early evening, could not have been any nicer and accommodating. Very helpful in giving directions to the PA Grand Canyon. Their continental breakfast was very good, and lots of it. The theme in this hotel was based around its' history, and even the soft music that played while we were eating, was definitely from the early 1900's and carried on the theme. It was very enjoyable. I would recommend this experience to anyone.

Located in downtown wellsboro within walking distance to shoppes and restaurants, this hotel is a throwback in a good way. The staff was attentive and pleasant. The lobby and rooms were clean and functional with modern amenities, but had the feel of another era, giving me a taste of what life might have been like in another time. Breakfast was good also, my kids loved the chocolate raspberry muffins.

Liked the history of the hotel and its location in Wellsboro. The lobby, dining room and lounge were well appointed and comfortable. Staff were pleasant and helpful. Guest room was clean but very plain. Nothing on the walls, fire suppression piping all exposed below ceiling (distracting). Bathroom mirror way too low, had to stoop to see in mirror while shaving.

It was like stepping into the Wayback Machine and returning to the Gilded Age of the late 1800’s. The architectural features (hexagonal bathroom floor tiles, steam radiators, vaulted ceilings with crystal chandeliers, framed historical photographs of the area, etc etc). You get the idea. We could have spent an extra day just exploring the nooks and crannies of the building. The breakfast buffet was filling and offered a variety of good food. Good value for the money. Wellsboro is a delightfully quaint small town. The buildings along Main Street and side streets are a photographer’s dream come true. Don’t miss the Tioga County Courthouse!

Historic and in the middle of an amazing small town that offers more than bigger places. 1/8 of a mile out of town you are in some of the remote areas on the east coast.

In a beautiful town, and the building is historic and well kept. Very nice restaurant with indoor and outdoor dining. My only complaint was that there was no closet or even a clothes hook in my room. I had to hang clothes on the doorknob. The other thing, less of a concern, is the sink was an old-fashioned type with separate hot and cold faucets. Not that big a deal. Oops, one other thing. Don't touch the steam radiator valves until they turn on the boiler. I opened mine before that, and it was way too much and overheated the room. Staff was great. Very helpful person at the desk, who gave me a pitcher with water and ice and a glass when the vending machine upstairs was out. More than that, he was friendly and helpful throughout my visit, even recommending some good sites to see on a walk.

It was a challenge for individual room air conditioning to keep up when it was 95. Would have been nice for the staff to turn on the ac before we arrived. Lobby smelled of old fireplace smoke

Shabby - shabby - chic Historic Pennwells. Pros: Lots of character. Very friendly staff - but everyone is friendly in Wellsboro. Good restaurant and tavern on site. They share the same menus. The interiors of each are unique and terrific. The hotel is in the center of town and walkable to everything. Cons: old and shabby - but it's a bit cool at the same time.
