The Miners 1928 Hotel
Celebrate Forever in Our Restored 1928 Masterpiece
Cannot say enough good things about The Miners 1928. The venue itself is absolutely stunning. As a Pottsville native, I loved how the bank’s history and Pottsville’s roots in coal mining are highlighted throughout the hotel, lounge and reception area. Pictures of the reception area do not do it justice. All of our guests were wowed by the restored vault and high ceilings. What made our wedding day extra special was the Miners’ staff—particularly Shannon and Tracy. We had originally planned to hold our ceremony at an off site, outdoor venue. However, a nor’easter had other plans in mind. The morning of our wedding I sent a text to Shannon at 7AM asking if we could have our ceremony at the Miners. Shannon immediately eased my panic and executed a flawless ceremony. While my husband and I had portraits done, she was rehearsing the processional with my bridal party. Shannon and Tracy and extremely professional, creative and effective as a team. Our wedding day could have gone very differently if it was not for their quick thinking, round the clock availability, and commitment to making this day everything Nick and I dreamed of. Our wedding package also included use of Oak Hollow Designs’ decor. The owner, Cheryl, went above and beyond with set up and coordination. She seamlessly integrated our decor with hers and similarly made day of changes to our plans to accommodate the ceremony venue relocation. We 100% recommend entrusting the Miners team with your special day!
The staff and management at the Miners 1928 Hotel went above and beyond to make our wedding celebration truly special and flawless. From the very beginning, the coordinators helped with every detail and handled everything with the utmost professionalism, taking so much of the stress and anxiety out of wedding planning.
The servers, bartenders, and hotel staff were exceptionally polite, attentive, and helpful to our entire family, friends, and guests. Their professionalism and hospitality did not go unnoticed and were sincerely appreciated by everyone.
The hotel’s rich history was also a huge hit with our guests. Everyone loved seeing the heritage of our area beautifully preserved and displayed in such a classy, elegant setting.
Our wedding was a completely flawless fairy tale, and we are incredibly thankful to the entire Miners 1928 team for helping make our day everything we dreamed it would be. We highly recommend them to anyone planning a wedding or special event!
