The town of New Hope has long been known for its riverside dining, eclectic merchants, boutique shopping, cultural attractions, inns and bed-and-breakfasts. With an already strong reputation as a one-of-a- kind, walkable destination along the Delaware River, it appears as though the best is just beginning here.


New Hope has some very exciting new offerings that are expected to take this already popular and well-known town and ascend it to new heights.


According to Paul Bencivengo, president and COO of Visit Bucks County, "The travel industry is a leading contributor to Bucks County’s economic growth and prosperity. Our county’s tourism and hospitality industry continued to break records in 2018 with the total number of visitors and visitor spending. New Hope will now see more meetings and special events generating additional impact on top of leisure tourism. New room inventory will allow for larger groups to stay in the area and extend stays leading to more economic hospitality activity.”


“Today’s traveler is seeking a unique mix of downtown charm, arts, culture and a thriving food and drink scene,” he continues. “New Hope is delivering all of these with the opening and renovation of several venues. We are thrilled to be able to offer something distinct to meet- ing planners - a riverside town with a scenic, refreshing backdrop for meeting attendees and now plenty of reasons to extend their stay and enjoy all that the revitalized town has to offer."
