Reviews and Ratings
I found the hotel to be a mixed experience. The rooms, although very clean and up to the standards of places we have stayed at, were unfortunately very noisy due to traffic outside. On the bright side, they did have cozy touches, including a fireplace, that added a nice touch to the ambiance.
The hotel had some quirky features like old people portraits on the walls but overall offered a basic yet spacious room with updates. Although the temperature controls were tricky, the bed was comfortable, and the shower was good. The service was exceptional, although there were minor cleanliness concerns. The historic charm of the inn, cozy atmosphere, and convenient location were highlights. The dining experience was mixed, with delicious food but inconsistent service. The facilities were decent for a pleasant stay overall.
The hotel exudes an old-world charm with its full period furniture, offering a cute and comfortable stay. Staff are friendly and helpful, though some may seem slightly off-their-game at times. The location is picturesque like a storybook town but in need of a renovation. Dining was a mix of excellent but slow service and overpriced, ordinary meals. Overall, a charming stay with a few quirks.
The hotel has a charming old-world feel with period furniture in the rooms, but the street traffic can be bothersome. The service from any staff member was consistently friendly and helpful. The location in Stockbridge is excellent, but the noisy public bar may not suit those seeking a quiet lounge atmosphere. The dining experience is top-notch, although there could be longer wait times. Overall, a mixed experience with unique charm and some noise issues.
I recently stayed at the inn, and it was quite an interesting experience. The rooms were a bit chilly, but surprisingly comfortable despite the uneven floors that really showcased the age of the building. I found it a bit odd to have old people portraits hanging on the walls, giving off a unique vibe. On the bright side, the king size bed was incredibly cozy.
