Glasbern reviews the year
Having a vibrant, yet historical inn, where so many celebrations are hosted, ideas conjured, emotions evoked, and fellowship shared, we have to take time to reflect on where we’ve been and what are our goals for the years ahead. In an effort to always improve and to ensure that every guest’s stay is never the same, we often times have to acquiesce to certain hospitality trends and make improvements to our Pennsylvania luxury inn.
During the past year we updated our dining room, making it a little more relaxed so everyone feels welcome, and to accommodate our increasingly popular Fogelsville restaurant. As a leader in the farm to table movement, more and more people are conscientious of where there food comes from. We felt the need to expand our dining capabilities to satisfy this, so more people can enjoy what we’re offering. This also led to our decision to make a smaller private dining area, “the Grainery” where hosts can share presentations in an intimate setting and to make our patio, that overlooks two of our ponds, more suited for dining.
Our award-winning chef (Taste of Elegance and Taste of Lehigh Valley, 2011) expanded the pub menu to offer more casual fare and had an abundance of produce to work with from our greenhouses. He also began to perfect and offer Pennsylvania Barbeque, enhanced by our state of the art smoker.
In some of the guest rooms and cottages, we improved the bathrooms, refreshed paint, updated linens, and installed Kuerig coffee machines to get the first thing in the morning jolt before meandering to the inn for breakfast. We also enhanced a vista to accommodate weddings that overlook rolling hills and pastures.
This past year we had the opportunity to host some amazing events at our Lehigh Valley inn; great weddings, an adult Easter Egg hunt that benefited the Boys and Girls Club, tell us your love story contest, and a Toys for Tots campaign. But we couldn’t have had the successful year that we’ve had if it wasn’t for our wonderful guests, business associates and employees.
