    Great for dogs!

    We had a great stay! The hotel folks did a great job of explaining all of the areas they had set up for dogs to relieve themselves. There were poop bags available and they had flyers posted around the facility about the danger of leaving dogs in hot cars, which was a nice gesture. The room was clean and the staff were very friendly. We stayed on the top floor but the elevators were easy to use.

    Very basic

    Great location near restaurants and shops, short drive to the historic battlefield. Interior (including the room) is neither vintage nor modern: in definite need for updates. No pooch welcome bag :(

    Great location near attractions

    Comfortable pet friendly hotel with large grass area to walk the pup. At the top of this grass field are monuments showing where the Union line was breached by Confederate soldiers. The Irish pub O’Rorke’s is across the street with pet friendly outdoor seating. 👍

    Excellent experience

    Great location, close to the battlefield. Clean, comfortable room. Nice shower. Really good breakfast included. Good parking and adequate grassy area for dog “duty” (why do folks not bag it up?). Moody gives it four paws up. DoorDash promptly delivered a wonderful meal from Thai Elephant Walk.

    Close to battlefield and many other attractions

    Everything was fine. Access to room was easy, dog area was good, plenty of parking, quiet more so than others we have been to. Breakfast was great so was the the attendant. Office staff was helpful and pleasant. Room was clean and comfy, bathroom could use a ceiling fan but not a big minus. Will stay again next on our way through next spring.

    Pet friendly

    There was a nice grassy area for dogs to walk, sniff and take care of business. The rooms were comfortable, but lots of noise that had my pups "alert" barking. The included breakfast buffet was amazing...many choices. No pets allowed there though. I noticed many other guests had fur babies.

    Central location

    Great accommodations, walk to shops and dining, great areas for dog walking etc. Street noise at front of building is quite loud. Large trucks at all times of day and into the evening.

    Good location

    Room was clean and appears to have been updated. We had a room facing the road and were not bothered by traffic. Short walk to shopping and pet friendly restaurants.

    Great stay

    We spent 2 days at the 1863 Inn with our dog. The king room was large and easily accommodated his XL cage. Our room was on ground level in the back of the hotel which made access to the large green space behind the hotel quite easy. The room was very clean. Staff was great. Many choices for breakfast. Great location (even close to a dog park.) Will definetly stay here again!

    I have taken my dog here every year since 2010

    We come every summer, usually around the 4th of July, but sometimes during other dates as well. My dog is used to traveling with us and enjoys being a part of family vacations. We have always had a great experience here... it's convenient because it's so close to everything (including many pet friendly restaurants) and also an easy walk around downtown Gettysburg without ever getting in your car. The rooms have always been clean and I appreciate the fridge (my dogs food goes in the fridge). Overall cannot say anything good things - Gettysburg is VERY dog friendly and I appreciate it!

    Take a ‘Hard Pass’ on the 1863

    I’m at the conclusion of a two week roadtrip. My final night was in Gettysburg at the 1863. Disappointing way to end the trip:

    *Bedding: absolute worst quality bedding — sheets and pillows — of the entire trip. Even low level Best Westerns have far superior bedding.

    *AC/Heating Unit: again, the only place I’ve stayed in two weeks where the fan will not stay on all night as a type of white noise. ..which is desperately needed because:

    *Road noise: the 1863 sits directly on a busy, load road. Half of the rooms face the road, and you hear ever car that passes.

    When visiting the Gettysburg area, I would take a ‘hard pass’ on the 1863. Try Courtyard or perhaps the Best Western options.

    Phoenix Stays Here Regularly!

    What pooch can beat this place? Walking distance to dog-friendly restaurants...Minimal pet charge per night...Friendly service with clean rooms. You are asked to sign a pet policy in advance so there shouldn’t be any surprises if you are mindful of your neighbors. Already planning our return visit!
