"It was lovely"

Carnegie House

10/10 Excellent

" ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I recently stayed one night at the Carnegie House and was absolutely blown away. I had never heard of it before, but it turned out to be an incredible find. From the moment I arrived, the staff made me feel genuinely welcome — warm, attentive, and professional. The bar and restaurant were top-notch, offering a cozy yet refined atmosphere with delicious food and drinks. What really stood out, though, was the room. The renovation and design were flawless — every detail was thoughtfully considered, creating a space that was both elegant and comfortable. Even though it was just a short stay, it left a lasting impression. I’ll definitely be back — and recommending it to anyone heading to State College!"
