The basecamp for the hike of your life.

This place is energized by its traditions. Camping out in Nittanyville. Streaking on Mifflin. The Willard Preacher. Theyʼre why Penn State is a one-of-one experience—unique and unforgettable. ōLiv Hetzel is your portal to explore them all.

 

A smack dab location on College Ave puts you in the heart of campus, steps from classes and downtown. A timelessly cool, mid-century modern design story tips its cap to generations past and boldly strides into the future. Itʼs a place that will look fresh when your kidʼs kids pick up the mantle. Spaces to lounge and connect are everywhere, so you can rehash your latest escapade or plan your next adventure. And tip-top amenities put a new level of comfort and convenience at your fingertips.

 

Inspired by generations of proud alumni, steeped in timeless Penn State traditions, and designed for crushing bucket-list rites of passage. ōLiv Hetzel is a new classic on campus, and the ideal spot to go live the unrivaled legacy of the blue and white.
