    We recently had a business event at Hotel Bethlehem. The venue was beautiful. The staff provided amazing service during our event and they were very attentive to our guest needs. The Bellman Barry and one other Bellman were very helpful upon arrival. They also made it easy to enter the hotel for one of our guest in a wheelchair. We had food stations and they were setup with great detail and the meal was delicious! Everyone commented that the food was on point perfect. This comment also came from 3 Chefs that were in the room as guest. Our bartender Steve also made the event special helping serve our guest themed drinks. Kathy our Sales Manager was extremely helpful with the entire process. She made everything run smoothly from the menu selections to the room layout. Our guest are still talking about this event weeks later! We truly appreciate the warm hospitality of all the hotel staff at Hotel Bethlehem.

    The BEST choice we have made - other than each other, was choosing Hotel Bethlehem for our big day! The Hotel provided an amazing list of vendors that had a lot of experience working with the hotel, and that really made the experience go by flawlessly. Our wedding was an Indian/American wedding in the Terrace room, and everything went by flawlessly - huge thank you to Emilie and our maître d' because they managed the crowd and cleanup process so well, and we could not have asked for more. Our guests LOVED the space, their accommodations at the hotel, and the food. Huge shoutout to the chef for creating Channa Masala as the Indian vegetarian dish - it was delicious and made the Indian part of the wedding feel so authentic. We chose the Emerald food and drink package and it was perfect. We loved our signature cocktails and dinner service was so well coordinated. The hotel provides couples with storage space and even helps up with set up. We will forever we grateful for the entire Hotel B Team!!!! - Sandhya and Maurice

    We had our ceremony, cocktail hour & reception at Hotel Bethlehem and it couldn’t have been more perfect!! The venue is so beautiful and our guests loved having the whole night in one place without needing to travel to multiple locations… and staying at the hotel was super helpful too! Emilie was absolutely amazing to work with! She made sure we had everything we asked for. The whole staff was so friendly and made sure we had the perfect day! Highly recommend :)
