The Omni Bedford Springs Resort is a resort hotel which is located outside of Bedford, Pennsylvania. Established in 1806, it is one of the last and best-preserved of 19th-century resort hotels based around mineral springs.

The hotel was documented in 2005 by the Historic American Buildings Survey (HABS). Omni Bedford Springs Resort & Spa is a member of Historic Hotels of America, the official program of the National Trust for Historic Preservation.[5] The resort is part of the Omni Hotels & Resorts brand, based out of Dallas, Texas.

A portion of the resort property, including the hotel, golf course, and spring areas, was designated a National Historic Landmark District in 1984.[4]
