Quality Inn Gettysburg Motor Lodge a Traditional Lodging Establishment

The Quality Inn Motor Lodge is Gettysburg is a traditional motel-type establishment similar to those that were very popular during the heyday of auto travel, specifically the 1950s and 1960s.

Tour pick-ups are available at the hotel.

The Quality Inn Motor Lodge includes rooms with outdoor entrances rather than interior hallways. The lodge is two stories tall but there is no elevator, so second story rooms must be reached via an outside staircase. The rooms at this inn are quite spacious and guests can choose from one king bed, two double beds, or three double beds for families or large groups traveling together. Inter-connecting rooms are available. As this is a value priced hotel, in-room amenities are few.

Some rooms have refrigerators and microwave ovens and others come equipped with whirlpool tubs.
