Allentown has 13 jacuzzi hotels across the Lehigh Valley, from $97 to $249. The highest-rated is The Globe Inn in East Greenville at 4.7, a Victorian B&B with in-room whirlpools and breakfast for $117 a night.
The Lehigh Valley's best jacuzzi hotels sit outside downtown Allentown, in the small towns ringing the city. Each has a personality the I-78 chain corridor cannot match. In Fogelsville, Glasbern is a converted stone farmstead where select suites have freestanding soaking tubs framed by floor-to-ceiling windows over open pasture. South in Macungie, Bear Creek Mountain Resort puts an enlarged jetted tub inside your room with a mountain view and a full spa downstairs. The highest-rated option is The Globe Inn in East Greenville, a Victorian bed and breakfast with themed rooms, in-room whirlpools, and breakfast for $117 a night. Wind Creek in Bethlehem takes the opposite approach: corner jetted tubs inside a casino resort built into the old Bethlehem Steel complex. Thirteen properties, from $97 to $249.

Frequently Asked Questions
Allentown puts you closer to Dorney Park and the budget chains along Route 22. Bethlehem is the better base if you care about walkability. The SteelStacks arts campus and Musikfest Café are right there. Wind Creek Bethlehem starts from $249, but you are steps from restaurants on Main Street. In Allentown, the Hilton Garden Inn West runs from $185 with a quieter suburban feel. Bethlehem suits nightlife and walkability; Allentown works when the tub itself is the priority.
It varies more than you would expect. At the Days Hotel by Wyndham near the airport, you get an oval jetted tub built into the room with no partition and no door. The Staybridge Suites version is a corner unit behind a half-wall in a full kitchen suite. Shape matters too. Corner units feel bigger than ovals at the same water volume. Ask the front desk whether the tub is in the bathroom or the bedroom. That one detail shapes the stay.
Bear Creek is about 25 minutes west in Macungie, and worth the drive. The in-room jetted tubs face wooded slopes, and the spa does couples massages. In winter, you can ski the resort's own trails and soak afterward. A 4.5 rating across nearly 4,000 reviews puts it among the strongest properties in the Lehigh Valley. Rates start at $179. On the way back, the Promenade Shops at Saucon Valley is an easy stop for dinner.
Musikfest in early August floods Bethlehem with over a million visitors across ten days. Tub rooms vanish weeks before the festival. Dorney Park's summer season pressures the Route 22 corridor from June through Labor Day. Late spring and early fall offer the best rates and open inventory. Glasbern in Fogelsville, rated 4.6, often has midweek availability even when the chains sell out. Book any weekend in July or August at least a month early.
