Historic B&B in Newtown. The rooms are quaint and have character. The heating is provided through space heaters but they do the job. Beds were comfortable but the restaurant below was nice on New Years Eve.

We came to celebrate our first year together. Two other couples were doing the same how funny. Loved the seafood. Great scallops and risotto was so flavorful. Not overcooked and so pretty that we took a picture. The apple and pear salad was different and really crisp. We had calamari for an appetizer. Once again, perfectly cooked. Our waitress was... More

Doesn't mean anyone should still be sleeping there. And that's my feeling about B&Bs in general. Certainly, they're not great for business travelers, but given the lack of reasonably-priced hotels in the area, once gets stuck with: The Brick. To be fair, the grounds, bar, and restaurant are all lovely and the people are friendly enough. The free WiFi is... More

This is a very historic building. I read the pamphlet at the front desk and the history was very interesting. As with any historic B&Bs you aren't going to get the five star amenities but I found the room quite nice and very cozy. A full service restaurant and bar downstairs with free wifi are a benefit over the larger... More

We stopped for drinks and appetizer. We were told that two waitresses had called out and that there were only two left and for one, this was her first night. Needless to say, service was terrible. The manager was filling in, but he seemed uncomfortable in his new job. The owner seemed to have an attitude. The food was so-so... More

First of all, I would like to comment that the young women who staffed the reception desk and also served breakfast couldn't have been nicer. They were friendly and went out of their way to ensure that we had an enjoyable experience. Breakfast involved generous portions and the food was hot and tasty. No complaints there. We didn't have any... More

The Brick Hotel is situated in Newtown, PA. It sits on the corner of the main street and is within easy walking distance of all shops, pubs and restaurants in the town. We chose the Brick Hotel for its location as we were visiting family members who live in Newtown. We reserved the hotel through the internet but upon our... More

The charge was $168 for the night. I was charged upon checking in. This is an unusual practice as most hoteliers take the card and do not post a charge until check out. My mistake was that I checked in, got charged, and the nightmare began. The internet was inoperable and the staff had no idea how to fix it.... More

We are sorry to hear about all your complaints. We had a guest in Room 305 (suite with Jacuzzi & Fireplace) who stayed there the previous night and we followed up with him about his stay and he had no complaints and felt the room was very clean. This is a historic building that was built in 1745 and so... More

Nothing to recommend this place. It is dirty in every way, crumbling plaster in the bath, moldy carpeting in the entry way, and a symphony of noise emanating from the walls. Cramped rooms, dated furniture. Oh, and the "continental breakfast"? Coffee and Fruit Loops! No OJ, not toast. Should be bulldozed, and a monument build, to commemorate the suffering of... More

We wanted to respond to your complaints. Certainly the server could have served you Orange Juice as they do to every guest that stays in the hotel. Breakfast is included complimentary and you can order eggs or pancakes. We are a historic building that was built in 1745 so yes it is old and needs work. But to say that... More

This was not our first visit to the Brick. We often stay here while visiting friends. When I made the reservation, I was quoted a great price of $76.20. Wow! They apparently were having a summer special. When we checked in, our room rate jumped to $110! Since I didn't know the name of the girl who made the reservation,... More
