About this place Eisenhower Hotel & Conference Center

The Eisenhower Hotel & Conference Center is a big mainstream hotel at 2634 Emmitsburg Road, just south of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, near the battlefield and the Maryland line. It is gay-friendly, not a gay venue. The property is built around meetings and groups: exhibit and event space, an indoor pool, on-site dining, free Wi-Fi and a shuttle bus. Reviews are mixed, at 3.4 on Google across nearly 1,400 ratings, with the size and convention focus mattering more than polish. It works as a practical base for battlefield visits, and Thurmont and Catoctin Mountain in Maryland are about 20 minutes south.

The older portion hotel has very poor quality rooms. Rooms 158 and 160 facing the pool. Broken dead bolt, like someone broke the door in. slider door to pool area didn’t lock. Clear bed bug residue on bed mattresses. Bathroom vanity dirty and door trim had clear dirt marks on it. We did not stay at this hotel! The front desk was kind and apologized. He gave us two rooms at the adjoining hotel. Much newer hotel, rooms were clean. No bed bugs! lol . Free breakfast was good. I was worried, based on our experience, but the lady who served the food was on the ball! Kept up with everything and made sure it was clean and well stocked! She even played music from her iPhone for the guest lol. We only stayed because there was no hotels that had rooms avail at 9pm within 30 minutes.

I was at the Eisenhower for a Canine Camp Getaway. The Eisenhower welcomes all of us along with our dog(s). We have complete run and use of the pool and grounds. (Pool is drained, cleaned and refilled when we leave) The staff is very friendly and accommodating. I would stay here even if it wasn't Camp time

The hotel was very clean and well maintained. Staff were attentive and friendly. The room was clean, smelled clean, and was very spacious. Only surprise was that the pool area looks very different than the pictures online. There are no longer plants, booth areas, or the “tropical” style garden but the pool is still there and excellent.
