The Hotel was constructed in 1869 and opened in 1870 as the Cone House. Initially guests were primarily engaged in commercial pursuits, staying in the Hotel for short stints after arriving by rail or coach, and some taking residence at the Hotel for longer periods as they worked in local industries. With its rebirth as the Penn Wells Hotel in 1926, the Hotel welcomed an increasing number of leisure travelers to the area. Today, the Hotel is a member of the Historic Hotels of America, offering a well-preserved example of architecture from both its 1869 construction and its 1920s era interior finishings, as well as numerous historical items of note, such as the glass bulb American flag that adorns one wall in its elegant lobby and the black and white photos that line the dining room walls. The “Crown Jewel of Pennsylvania” is the Pine Creek Gorge, commonly known as the Pennsylvania Grand Canyon (or, in deference to the slightly more famous one in the American West, “the Little Grand Canyon”). By any name, this scenic gem sits atop the must-see lists of many visitors to Pennsylvania, and it tops the itinerary of many visitors to the Penn Wells Hotel & Lodge, which sits in downtown Wellsboro, just 10 miles from some of the best Pennsylvania Grand Canyon overlooks. It's easy to tell that you’ve arrived in downtown Wellsboro, thanks to the historical and charming gas-lit lampposts that line the main corridor and downtown historic district. Here, the natural beauty of “Pennsylvania Grand Canyon Country” comes together with rich history to give visitors a memorable vacation in a warm and welcoming small town.
