Why We Do a Holiday Hershey Lodge Staycation Every Year

My family was given complimentary stay at The Hershey Lodge through the Hershey Sweet Insiders 2025 There are a lot of places you can go for a quick holiday getaway, but year after year, we keep choosing Hershey Lodge. It’s become one of our favorite family traditions, and by the end of the year the kids start asking, “When are we going back to the Lodge?” Here’s exactly why this staycation works so well for us and how we stretch a simple one night stay into two full days of fun. 1. A One Night Stay Feels Like a Two Day Vacation One of the biggest secrets about Hershey Lodge is how much time you actually get to enjoy the resort.  Early check-in perks Even if your room isn’t ready, you can check in early and head straight to Hershey’s Water Works (the indoor water park). The kids love the slides, the Reese’s Water Walk, and the basketball at the pool. Honestly, this gives us almost a full extra day of fun before we even …

Our Stay at The Hotel Hershey, PA

My family was given complimentary stay at The Hotel Hershey through the Sweetest Families Blogger Program 2023. As always, all opinions are my own. If you are thinking about coming to Hersheypark and are wondering where to stay, The Hotel Hershey is the place! While there are plenty of places to stay while visiting Hershey in PA, there is nothing compared to staying and experiencing one of the official resorts of Hersheypark. You can pick between The Hotel Hershey, The Hershey Lodge or Hersheypark Camping Resort. Last weekend we packed our swimsuits and drove to The Hotel Hershey for an overnight stay. We live 10 minutes from Hershey and it was a fun way to escape for a staycation so I am excited to share a little bit of our experience and I hope I can help you if you are planning to visit soon. About the Hotel The Hotel Hershey was opened by chocolatier Milton S. Hershey in 1933 and is a one-of-a-kind destination with rich history. Is located high atop the town of …
