Looking for a quick romantic getaway in New Hampshire and to experience snowshoeing? We found…read moreDexters listed as the best in town for snowshoeing and it did not disappoint. Upon arrival, the Inn keeper was warm, friendly and knowledgeable and was quick to provide us with snow shoes and poles. The trails on the property range from easy ( just my pace) to advanced ... and yes there is a black diamond trail for those of you who know how to handle it!! The equipment was well kept and the property was well maintained. Beyond the absolutely wonderful snowshoeing experience, was the Inn. We visited in mid-March and this was the coziest, warm and welcoming Inn we had experienced in a while. They have quite a few amenities including and outdoor fireplace and hot tub! They have a warm and inviting common room with tables, fireplace, community refrigerator and glasses for any of your beverages you may bring ( they are BYOB). The rooms are cozy and inviting - we were in a recently upgraded decorated room with modern designs, textures and colors. Our room had big beautiful windows that spilled delightful sunshine into every nook and corner. Honestly I could have stayed in the room all day if it weren't for the adventures waiting outside. The bed was like a big warm hug that I simply did not want to get out of in the morning! The breakfast starts at 7am and is served buffet style. It's is a wonderful diverse selection of home cooked items such as pancakes, eggs, breakfast meat, and delicious fresh fruit. The coffee is A+ which is always a must in my book. The cost of our stay did not break our bank and we definitely will be back!

The opportunity to celebrate with family and friends while staying together at the Inn made the weekend unforgettable. Innkeepers Maria and Paul, along with General Manager Beth, and all the staff went above and beyond our expectations. They truly make their guests feel like family. From start to finish, their kindness, professionalism and attention to detail made everything effortless and perfect. There is simply no venue out there that compares to Dexter's Inn. They helped us create memories that we will cherish for a lifetime and for that we are forever grateful.

It has been under new management for the past several years and we highly recommend it! Our cottage was beautifully done with a queen bed, futon couch and in the upstairs loft there were 3 twin beds. All were nicely made up with fresh sheets and bedding. There was a kitchen with coffee maker, microwave and fully equipped with clean and nicely displayed plates and utensils. There was a grill on the deck . The owner Maria is welcoming and took us to our cottage where the AC was already on (there was a heat spell on the 2 days we were there although usually AC probably wouldn't be needed). We did not eat there although for a family of 5 this would be an affordable but elegant way to stay on Lake Sunapee1

I have to admit that this hotel is a lot better than a Marriott. I like how the room actually has…read moretwo separate compartments if you're with another person. The only complaints I have are the pillows. I think they're made out of memory foam?? Really stiff memory foam?? Like another user said: bring your own pillow. There were cotton pillows in the closet, but I like feathered more. I just used the blanket at the end of the bed as a pillow instead. Works well. The bed is stiff, but then again, I do like soft surfaces more. However, it's not impossible to sleep on because I am more adjusting towards different surfaces. I could sleep on the floor and I'd still be comfortable. Lol In the future, change your pillows. I know it may be a cheaper option or maybe it's "proven" to work better than cotton or feathered, but put some money into more expensive pillows. Food is decent, staff is nice. 7/10-Would go here again if the pillows were better...or I could always bring my own, too.

Much more strict compared to any hotel I have ever stayed at in my decades of extensive travel. And yet they said they were filled with 4 days ahead and I know could have sold my room easily it was no cancel. Despite getting a ton of money from our promotion of this hotel on my daughter's wedding invite, as MOB I asked if I could arrive one hour early to dress for rehearsal. Answer was pay another 50! Really? Yet room was ready!!! I paid approximately 753 for 2 nights and watch for more fees!! Rooms were clean but why not add a door to smaller bedroom? Air control lousy as stated. One thermostat for both bedrooms and common area. The ice machine woke me with a loud crash!!! My friend's key stopped working and there is no one at the desk after 11!!!!! Very confusing as to what to do in emergency. Real rip off is a 4 pm check in but strict 10 am check out!!! And coffee was good but breakfast was lousy!!! I was embarrassed to have my guests think it would be a nice breakfast. The breakfast lady was very nice and not her fault her hotel provided cheap eats. No one asked how my stay was or any survey. Be aware it is more complicated as it owned by Choice and they are a whole additional layer of confusion to try to access their confirmations!! Not user friendly booking system at all. Do better Mountain Edge!!! Do not recommend this hotel for your wedding block. Oh the welcome bag for 750 was 2 waters and a few candies with scrap paper..

Robotic answer told me price was locked in and I could book an additional night! I did not want an additional night, I wanted to verify and make accurate the night that I wanted.... Automated answer said they will not give a refund. I called the front desk to the Newport Motel and Bella said "oh that's fine. We will just mark you down for this date you want, no problem." What excellent customer service from the Newport Motel and Bella and poor service from super.com. Stay away from super.com or don't make any mistakes.... Hotel was well kept and excellent location for my swim on Lake Sunapee, dinner, and church. I requested and was given an extra hour past check out.

The communication was difficult. I reserved 3 nights & realized I should move the dates over. I was…read morein fear of canceling if I tried to change it online (happened to me before), so I sent a message to the business 2 weeks before. No response so made a reservation for the Sun night elsewhere. So we were planning on traveling on the first date reserved for. Had a stop 1/3 of the way & when reading the confirmation, deep in it -- not on the front page -- it says that check-in is from 3 pm to 8 pm ONLY, and if having late check-in, must contact the motel prior. It was 8:30 pm. I called the motel, left message. No response until after 11 am next day. We had stayed in place that night since we had no idea what we'd do if we got here at 11 pm but couldn't get in. Patrick told me the next day I could have come anyway, that they tape the key to the office door. (Safety?) I told him we didn't know that and wouldn't have taken that risk. He asked when were we coming. I said we planned to get there at 3-3:30 since check-in was limited to 3 pm start. He told me we could have come anyway since we paid for the night before. According to their online info or confirmation, 3-8 pm only. He implied he'd take some off the first night and would change the online info & confirmation. (I see now on Yelp that this has happened to other people too..) Time will tell. We checked in. Moldy smell. Bathroom has off/loose tiles/no grout that am guessing water gets in behind so mold. A pleasant surprise was the mic & refrigerator. I didn't see that on the website so was a very nice added amenity. I saw one picture with a pool. Unless that was a different location? there's no pool here. There's a sign about charging for towels that get damaged by makeup etc. That they're providing colored towels for that purpose, but then didn't. Some basic maintenance should be done. Fix tiles around bathroom. Replace blinds that have missing slats. Find source of smell. Toilet seat comes loose -- I've tightened it repeatedly.

Great, family owned motel to stay in. Definitely breaks the mold of the chain places to stay in…read morethis day in ago. Friendly owner, very nice large rooms. They have updated the rooms a bit over the years, but they still have the charm of nice New England motel. I've been staying at the Lamplighter for over 20 years when up in New London, NH. Rooms are clean, practically spotless, and rooms have nice amenities including a flat screen TV with dish network connection, as well as a fridge/freezer. I guess the only negative I found is road noise as the motel is right on the main road through town. Its not a negative as its a small town, but if you like to sleep in, it can be a little noisy. Television should drown it out just fine, but a pair of earplugs if you are a light sleeper. Give this place a shot, I'll be staying here each and every visit to New London, NH!

I've seen the place when we tried to come in for lunch but it was busy so we went elsewhere but I had only thought it was a restaurant. In fact it is a small inn and restaurant in the same building. I don't know if the building has been built new and made look like the surrounding town but the building looks like it belongs to the town and the surrounding area but from the looks of things the 2nd and 3rd floor of the building have been completely rebuilt and made entirely anew. The room I stayed at is spacious and while it has no frills like luxury hotels might it is clean has nice amenities and very quiet, although I don't know if it is the way that the building is done or just the nice serenity of the surrounding area but it is certainly a welcome situation. If you are in the area I would highly recommend staying there though I can't quite get over the out of hours key distribution in an envelope next to the front desk. I would have made it a text message but that's just me....

Faucet is wobbly, and it needs to be secured to counter. They provide a half dollar size soap at the sink...nothing at the shower. We were staying two nights. The dispenser in the tub area only had conditioner...no soap. One small bottle of shampoo for two for two days. Mold on the shower curtain and in the corner at the top of the tub/wall. I could smell the shower curtain walking into the bathroom! When we pulled the covers back on the bed there was a green thread. Not ours! Were the sheets changed after the previous lodger? Updated rooms look nice, but not enough to entice us back. We have cxld our September reservation for two nights and will lodge elsewhere. We left feedback for the Inn and clearly the response said management would be notified; however, no one has picked up the phone to have a chat! Sad business ethos! I should have taken photos!
