Wow! We initially booked with the Inn at Penn because of their renovations, special promotions and reasonably priced venue/banquet offerings. What we ended up with was more than we...
could have imagined. From the beautiful bridal suite to the open and spacious Woodlands Ballroom, this venue was perfect. We had a vision to make this space a fun, welcoming and beautiful venue for our reception and with the help of our vendors and wedding planner Michelle, we made that happen. The cocktail hour was just as we imagined with never ending hors d’oeuvres and chef stations. The dinner was amazing which is impressive as we had 200 guests at our wedding. The banquet employees including Khalid and Jimmy were unbelievably welcoming, especially during our visits to the venue to plan out our wedding. There are many places to choose for your wedding, but with a vision and amazing vendors, you can have your dream wedding at the Inn at Penn.
Our experience with the Inn at Penn was so unbelievably disappointing. We were directed to Kaitlyn Devlin to help plan our wedding events and room block, and every step of the way ...
was beyond frustrating. She was inflexible, unreachable, and downright disrespectful every time we spoke. Weeks would go by in between communications when the questions were very simple (ex: what would it cost to do consumption based drinks versus open bar?). She kept saying she "needed to check" and would get back to me. Then she'd disappear and was totally unresponsive to the emails, calls and voicemails I would send during a few week period. I was always friendly, cheerful, and understanding when I reached out, just hoping I could get some form of response from her.
Every time I spoke to Kaitlyn it felt like I was bothering her, and she was extremely condescending. She is also a new employee, so I'm not sure if this was her insecurity showing through when I'd ask her questions she didn't know the answer to. We finally set up a meeting to discuss the details - my wedding planner and I both drove from 3 hours away to meet with her, and she had NO answers to any of the questions we had provided to her beforehand. Literally not a single one. She said she'd "check", and then disappeared yet again.
The next time I finally got a hold of her, she said she had given away our date to someone else. This was MONTHS of going back and forth with her (mind you, we were dying to put down a deposit and lock down the space) and she gave it away to someone else!!! We could've spent all that time finalizing the details with another venue, and we were back to square one just a few months out from our wedding date.
Ladies, you deserve so much better than this time-consuming, frustrating, and disrespectful experience. You deserve to be treated better, not only because it's your special day and you're spending so much money, but also because YOU'RE A HUMAN BEING who deserves BASIC HUMAN DECENCY. I did not deserve to be talked to in the tone and manner with which Kaitlyn treated me - I have no idea why I even put up with it for as long as I did. We found an amazing hotel nearby that is much nicer, much less expensive, and has been kind, welcoming and accommodating every step of the way. I can't tell you how important that is when you're planning the biggest day of your life - save yourself the heartache and tears, and go elsewhere. Shame on you, Kaitlyn, Nancy, and the rest of management for allowing this to happen - Kaitlyn should NEVER have been hired for a customer service position!!!!
This hotel offered such great and friendly service. The staff was so pleasant--everyone from the valets and bellhops to the concierge associates. The hotel was immaculate, the room...
s modern and comfortable, clean little fitness area, and a complimentary iPad in each room. It was great. My husband and I spent our wedding night there, and we had other guests stay there as well. Everyone was tremendously happy to have stayed there.
The accommodations at the Inn at Penn are lovely but the service was so horrendous that I cannot recommend them. We had at least 4 issues with booking. First they reserved the inco...
rrect number of rooms. Then the link that they gave us for reserving rooms wasn't working. When guests called to make reservations because the link wasn't working, the front desk had no knowledge of our block. Later, we extended our block reservation but the link, again, did not function and again the front desk had no knowledge of our block. In addition, my mother-in-law had lots of trouble just getting in contact with somebody about setting up a brunch after the wedding. Finally, they screwed up the billing after our stay. The stay itself was wonderful and I loved the rooms but the service before and after was just terrible.
The Inn at Penn was great from start to finish. The wedding coordinator, Michelle, is very warm and a pleasure to work with. The venue itself was beautiful- the ballroom is great...
and the guest rooms are updated and very comfortable. All of the staff I interacted with were so friendly and professional. On the day of the wedding Michelle was the point person who took care of all the vendors, so my family and I didn't have to worry about coordinating all that and could enjoy ourselves. One of the best things about this venue is the bridal suite that is included in the wedding package. The attached sitting room area is huge with great windows. My bridesmaids and our moms and I were all able to spread out and get ready together without being crowded in a tiny guest room. There was plenty of room for the people doing our hair and makeup to work, and for the photographer to capture it all. I was so so happy with how smoothly everything went on my wedding day and how great Michelle was to work with.
The staff at the Inn at Penn is wonderful to work with. The accommodations were amazing! They made it a wonderful day for us. We highly recommend this venue!
