The Brick used to be lovely but has really gone down hill. In a few words: bathrooms were dirty upon arrival, bedding was old and soiled, window was broken in our room and couldn't be shut, no iron in our from and couldn't even locate one even after multiple requests. When these issues were pointed out to management they seemed... More

This hotel is history incarnate, being 249 years old. While it still maintains its historic feel and the rooms are attractive, don't look too closely. The cleanliness of the rooms is marginal. Ripped bedding hangs to the floor, ceiling have water marks, and toilet seats do a slip-n-slide. The TV has one channel -- how quaint. These rooms are in... More

Food took forever and the restaurant was empty! Once we finally got our cold food and asked for a second round of drinks the bar was "out of what they needed" to make our drinks. When we finally received our bill we had been charged for a bottle of water that the server acted like was complimentary. The management did... More

We were sent here as an Anniversary gift from our children. They scheduled us for massages at the new Hand & Stone in Newtown, PA (which was wonderful enough) then had us in for brunch at the Brick Hotel. I have to mainly stick to a gluten free diet while my husband has no limitations. The multiple options were wonderful... More

My husband and I were staying here because a friend was getting married in this hotel. First, they gave our room to someone else, making us stay in a smaller room with a much smaller bed. Those people left the next morning, so they moved our stuff into the larger room. We still had to unpack, then repack, but there... More

No breakfast as promised two mornings. No heat in the room. No hot water in the room. Loud music at night. Owner took no responsibility for all the problems. Promised two nights free/never honored. Cold temperatures in dining room/guests wearing coats and hats. Scalded then froze in shower. Dead ant in the bed. Moved to a new room and then... More

The food at this landmark hotel in the heart of charming Newtown, PA is terrific! The squash soup and salad had on a recent business trip there were really special. So was breakfast that came along with my night's stay. The rooms have been restored... Mine was modest, but nice. This is a special little town and the Brick, where... More

I saw an ad for a News Years Eve celebration that prompted my reservation. My friends and I were looking for something different to do this year. When I arrived all excited for the dinner celebration, we were gravely disappointed. There was no heat in the entire building. They said the the boiler had just broken and was being replaced....

New Years Eve package was misleading... they claimed to have live entertainment and a celebration, the put on a Ipod with music with that was not dance music, and turned on the TV to watch the ball drop, (that was their idea of celebration). We could of stayed at home and done that without all the expense and aggravation. To... More

We stayed at this hotel for two nights. Since a "suite" was not available the first night, I chose room 303 and the suite room 305 for the second night. When we checked in, it took forever. No one knew what was going on. Then we trek up to the third floor (there is no elevator) and the key doesn't... More
