Wilbur Mansion

My partner and I stayed for one over the night of the 4th of July. The staff was extremely welcoming and professional. They also had a plethora of knowledge of the history of the mansion, the city, and nearby landmarks. They recommended places to eat and things to do in the hours before fireworks. The room was inviting with its modern amenities and bathroom fixtures, yet had elegant, original, wood and tile features that made it feel luxurious. Every window in the room had excellent views of the river, city, and surrounding valley. The aesthetic of the room extends throughout the incredibly preserved mansion. My partner and I found ourselves gawking at the beauty of the building constantly. The courtyard is gorgeous and was the perfect spot to sit and watch the fireworks. Again, staff was attentive to us and offered full service while we enjoyed the private garden with a picture perfect view. The morning after started with a tasty breakfast delived to our door and once again, beautiful views of our surroundings. Saying farewell to the staff felt more akin to saying goodbye to friends who you look forward to seeing again. We loved every moment of our time at the Wilber Mansion.

As a Lehigh Alumnus who wants to be close but not too close to campus, have a beautiful room and bath in a historic setting and have one of the best restaurants in the Lehigh Valley, The Wilbur is a wonderful choice. Excellent value and a ten-minute walk to Bethlehem's Main Street.

Second visit to the Wilbur Mansion when visiting our granddaughter at Lehigh University. Perfect place to relax and enjoy great food. The staff and level of service provided far exceed the norms found in hospitality industry.
