Hotel Anthracite

What Hotel Anthracite does

Hotel Anthracite is a single-asset boutique hotel located at 25 South Main Street in Carbondale, Pennsylvania, opened in 2018 and operated as a member of the Settlers Hospitality collection of regional boutique properties. The property offers three room tiers — Standard, Deluxe, and Suites (including ADA-compliant configurations) — equipped with Simmons BeautyRest bedding, Apple TV, blackout curtains, in-room safes, and complimentary WiFi. Ancillary facilities include the on-site Kōl Grill restaurant (open Wednesday through Sunday with weekly themed specials ranging from $13 to $32 per cover), the Canary Café lounge, a fitness center, Miners' Market, and a covered parking garage.

The property's commercial activity extends well beyond overnight lodging. Gravity Hall accommodates up to 350 guests for weddings and corporate meetings, with overall meeting capacity of up to 500; additional venues include the Courtyard and a Private Dining Room. Wedding packages bundle 5-hour venue rental, catering, bar service, cake, and a complimentary couples' suite. Corporate retreats are supported by in-house catering, A/V equipment, and high-speed WiFi. Specialized packages — America 250 ($250/night), Gracie's Wagaway pet package ($50 fee), and the Perfect Culinary Getaway ($189–$249/night with $100 F&B credit) — extend the merchandising surface.

Revenue is generated through room rentals (one-time per-night charges plus 6% PA state tax and 7% local lodging tax), on-site F&B, event and wedding venue rental, and ancillary add-ons (florals $80–$90, champagne $30, grazing boxes $50, indulgence trio $100). Distribution runs through direct website booking (bookings.hotelanthracite.com), phone reservations, and the Settlers Hospitality central platform. Marketing is multi-channel but locally oriented: organic social (Facebook, Instagram, TikTok), an email newsletter, content on the property website, and partnerships with the Carbondale Chamber of Commerce, Lackawanna County Visitors Bureau, and the Delaware Highlands Conservancy Green Lodging Program. The underlying technology stack is a standard hotel PMS with booking-engine integration, Stripe for payments, and Google Analytics for traffic analysis — no proprietary software, no API, and no mobile app. The company is privately held with no disclosed funding, no parent company in the venture-backed sense (owned within the Settlers Hospitality group), and an 8-person reported headcount.
