Renaissance Allentown Hotel - A downtown hotel with PPL Center access, local dining, and executive amenities
Located in the heart of downtown and attached to the PPL Center, this 3-star Allentown hotel occupies a historic building with 170 air-conditioned rooms. Renaissance Allentown Hotel features rooms equipped with flat-panel Smart TVs, complimentary Wi-Fi, and refrigerators. The Dime, the hotel's casual restaurant on the third floor, serves locally sourced Pennsylvanian American cuisine. Business travelers have access to 11000 square feet of flexible event space across 18 venues, including the Renaissance Ballroom with its balcony. A 24-hour fitness center and executive lounge (available Monday through Friday) cater to guests' wellness and business needs. The front desk operates 24/7 from the second floor, offering services like digital check-in and mobile key access. The property sits 5.5 miles from Lehigh Valley International Airport (ABE) and within walking distance to Allentown Art Museum, Liberty Bell Museum, and Soldiers and Sailors Monument.
Pros
Executive lounge access available for select room categories
Located within 0.3 miles of eight different restaurants including Bell Hall and Allentown Brew Works
Soundproofed rooms with city views
Mobile dining service for private in-room meals
Cons
Executive lounge operates only Monday through Friday
Front desk location on second floor requires elevator use from main entrance
“The renovated rooms present a modern aesthetic, although individual preferences for layout may vary; parking presents an initial challenge, requiring navigation through the stadium area, so calling ahead is advisable. I found that its location near downtown attractions and the PPL Center balances accessibility with the surrounding urban environment. Despite some logistical hurdles, the updated facilities position it as a solid option for those visiting Allentown.”
