The Spotlight on Parkview Inn and Conference Center

Comfort & Convenience Just Outside Downtown Allentown

Modern yet budget-friendly, the Parkview Inn and Conference Center offers a laid-back stay just a short drive from Allentown’s top event spots. Located only three miles from major attractions like Dorney Park, this pet-friendly hotel blends value with comfort, featuring an outdoor Olympic-size pool, sand volleyball court, and game room. Whether you're in town for a concert, a weekend getaway, or a local festival, this hotel keeps you close to the action without the downtown price tag.

Rooms come equipped with flat-screen TVs, mini-fridges, and hair dryers, and connecting rooms are available for groups. Free parking and complimentary high-speed Wi-Fi make your stay easy from check-in (4:00 PM) to checkout (12:00 PM).

Why Concert-goers love it

This hotel is ideal for fans heading to shows in Allentown and the surrounding Lehigh Valley. You’re just minutes from popular indoor and outdoor venues, while still being tucked away in a quieter area—perfect for post-concert recovery. Free on-site parking means no worries about getting back late, and the 24-hour lobby coffee station is a lifesaver after a long night. The flexible checkout time lets you sleep in after the encore.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for affordable, connected rooms
  • Solo travelers chasing a dream tour date
  • Couples turning a show into a weekend escape
  • Fans who want to relax in a quieter setting after the crowd clears
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who don’t want to skimp on comfort

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no full-service restaurant on-site, the free continental breakfast fuels your morning after a late night. The 24-hour coffee in the lobby is perfect for early risers or night owls, and you’re just a short drive or walk away from several casual dining spots and fast food joints. Late-night eats are easy to find nearby.

Nightlife Options

Although the hotel itself doesn’t host live music or have a bar, its location puts you within easy reach of Allentown’s nightlife. Whether you're heading to a concert or want to grab a drink afterward, there are plenty of bars and lounges within a few miles. Want something more chill? Head back and unwind in the spacious outdoor areas or game room.

What People Say

Guests love the value and convenience of this hotel. Reviews often highlight the friendly staff, clean rooms, and surprisingly large pool area. People appreciate the easy check-in process and the fact that it's close to major attractions and concert venues without being in a noisy area.

Areas for Improvement

This isn’t a luxury resort, and some guests note that the décor feels a bit dated. The building’s layout can be a bit of a maze, and occasional maintenance quirks pop up. But if you're here for the music, not the marble countertops, it's a great base.

The Bottom Line

If you're looking for a budget-friendly, pet-friendly stay near Allentown's concert venues with plenty of space to relax after the show, the Parkview Inn and Conference Center hits the right note.

Don't

Liked: Ease of check-in and breakfast
Disliked: Mini-splint filters full of mold. Bathrooms are tiny. No blankets on the bed... only a sheet.First room, tv didn't work. I had already unpacked. Called ignorant front desk girl who told me pack up everything and come to the office for a new room. I asked for an inconvenience deposit, and she laughed.Too bad... I'm an event planner and would've loved to have met with management. But after that stay, forget it!

Hard not to notice furniture disgusting night Stand tables were damaged from water. Floor felt sticky. Also, the hotel phone did not work to call the front desk. It was just there for show is what the front desk person said

Disappointing
