OMNI BEDFORD SPRINGS RESORT & SPA

WHERE: Bedford, Pennsylvania, USA

WHY WE WANT TO BOOK IT: A historic mountain resort in the Allegheny foothills built around natural springs and a sense of “firsts”—home to one of America’s earliest indoor swimming pools, one of its first golf courses, and a long-standing tradition of restorative travel. The setting feels layered with history, from the restored 1895 Old Course to spring-fed landscapes and reimagined mill buildings used for gatherings and events.

BEST TIME TO VISIT: Spring through fall for hiking, golf, and outdoor springside activities, when the mountains open up and the historic grounds feel most alive. Winter leans into spa time, indoor pool rituals, and slow stays within the resort’s historic architecture.

WHAT ROOM SHOULD I BOOK? 216 rooms and four suites inspired by the resort’s heritage, ranging from traditional historic styling to more refined, updated accommodations. The experience is less about category and more about atmosphere, with views and proximity to the springs, golf course, or main historic buildings shaping the stay.

WHO WILL FEEL RIGHT AT HOME HERE? Guests who want a classic American resort experience with history built into it—golfers, spa-focused travelers, and anyone drawn to places where nature, wellness, and legacy architecture overlap. It works equally for quiet weekends and group gatherings.

WHAT ELSE IS CALLING MY NAME? The Springs Eternal Spa, known for indigenous-inspired natural treatments and the Bedford Bath Ritual, alongside a year-round indoor pool with Art Nouveau design and a seasonal outdoor pool with cabanas. Dining ranges from the 1796 Room and Crystal Room to Frontier Tavern, plus Lobby Bar and Evitt House Coffee. The restored 18-hole Old Course is a major draw, along with on-site activities like tennis, archery, and history tours.

WHAT ABOUT THE RATES? From $247. Rates vary by season and room type. Check the hotel’s website for current availability and pricing.
