What makes The Hotel Hershey different from other Four-Star hotels?

Travel Guide Inspector

Unlike other Four-Star hotels, The Hotel Hershey takes on the seemingly difficult task of being both a luxury hotel and a family-friendly resort. Founded by chocolate king Milton Hershey in the 1930s as a high-end destination, the Four-Star hotel retains the Old World glamour and elegance Hershey envisioned. However, as the Hershey area has become a family destination thanks to its amusement park and other chocolate-filled attractions, the hotel has found ways to welcome its younger guests and balance its formality with a casual feel. The Forbes Travel Guide Four-Star hotel strives for elegance without pretense and caters to the chocolate-loving kiddies with amenities like a large pool area with water slides and summertime s’mores bonfires.
