They let me check in early when I got out of work so I could sleep before I had to go back in at 7pm. They made sure I had everything that I needed while there. The rooms were really clean and spacious. Bed was comfy and I was able to get some rest before my next shift. If you're in the area and need a nice place to stay I would suggest staying here. It's close to Franklin where I work and also close to Laconia.

The hotel itself appears to be newly renovated and modern. Rooms were neat and well maintained…read more Pool looked very clean and breakfast was...okay. There are better options (free too) at other hotels in Tilton. A/C did not function well in the room. Room was uncomfortably warm despite setting the thermostat to the coldest setting. Normally, would not have used the lowest setting, but a taped sign indicated you had to adjust the thermostat +/- 4 degrees to make it comfortable. I would have let the front desk know, but when I called at 7pm no one answered. I also tried to address it in person after addressing another issue, however, they seemed non-commital and unconcerned about the first issue so I figured they wouldn't care any more about the second. Overall, I would stay here again if it was between canceling my plans or staying here because it's very clean and well kept, but the front desk staff left a lot to be desired in terms of service. Wasn't expecting the 4 seasons, but basic attempts to satisfy the guest. Bottom line there are better options for slightly more money in the area.

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!

The coffee is good, breakfast is fine for a chain - honestly better than others I've had. It seems like overall its managed really well.

The cleanliness is the main factor for me, so I am glad to be able to trust that now after two stays. Highly recommend!

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

The cookies on arrival were a nice touch. However, if you have mobility issues. This is not the room for you. Up some narrow depth stairs, and a hand rail that is not easy to hold. The toilet is in the center of the room, with nothing to help you up. The stairs to the front door were also difficult for me to manage. In fact, I tripped and fell trying to get over the front door threshold. I was not hurt and staff were very concerned about me. I do recommend the Black Swan, but make sure to get a room on the first floor.

We drove up to listen to "The Jovial Crew" Saturday. This group performs Shanty, folklore rich songs of the sea, pub and more. Amazing vocals from the guys and a chance to join in to sing along. This was a BYOB event, a traditional Grog mix was provided by the Inn Keepers (non alcoholic) to which you could add the "Spirit"that you brought with you. House made Desserts were included with admission. They even had some themed treats, Hardtack and Joe Froggers. If you were staying at the Follansbee Inn, admission for the concert was included. For locals, tickets were available at the door. But, stay at the Inn for an overnight, their Breakfasts are included and amazingly delicious.

There was a fireplace and a hot tub, both great, especially since the weather was quite cold while we were there! (We went in January). This room also had some great views that we enjoyed in the mornings. Most of our time was spent lounging around -- playing games and sitting by the fire in the Great Room. It was too cold to do much of anything outdoors -- but we briefly went to see the Sculptured Rocks and we did go out for some evening meals. There were so many games to play though; we had lots of fun just relaxing. Sondra also has a huuuuge selection of movies to watch :). BREAKFAST. Seriously amazing. Sondra cooked us some amazinggggg breakfasts!!! My favorite was the bananas foster french toast!! I wish I could have that on a weekly basis! She also made us omelettes and frittatas that were delicious! She is great at adjusting meals to meet your dietary restrictions/preferences. She also had a large selection of juices to pick from, and there were always treats around for snacking on later in the day, and a VERY large assortment of tea and coffee, available 24/7. We had a great time staying here and we can't wait to go back! Hopefully in the spring or summer instead of winter so we can enjoy the outdoors more.

Wow! My daughter and I stayed in the Hemlock room.

This is a thoroughly updated establishment in which the details have been sweated out. In the two story great room, there is a healthy selection of good movies, lots of reading materials, games, and many good areas to hang out. Sondra, the proprietor, was a very gracious and generous host and a fabulous cook. It sounds like her menu changes, but for breakfast we had a strawberry, dark and white chocolate cobbler, an egg and ricotta omelet with fresh vegetables, home fries, cinnamon rolls, and bacon. The cobbler was even better than it sounds, the home fries were savory, the omelet was made with fresh eggs from the on-premises hens, and the bacon was crispy and not greasy. Finally, I would be remiss if I neglected to mention the setting. The view of the lake combined with the White Mountain range is so tranquil in the winter. The panoramic picture I posted of the sunset there doesn't do it justice. The way the entire building is situated on the lot and the way the decks open out onto the landscape is just wonderful and unique. One last note - if you like to watch TV, there is a huge menu of available cable channels, and if you use the Internet a lot, the Wifi is very high speed and works outdoors as well. However, your time would be wasted - your head should be pointed at the view and/or the food and not the screen!

Quite Charming inside and out…read more *Historic Building with rich Town history. *Featured on TAPS and Haunted History. We had no experience outside the ordinary. *It is an old building that has been rebuilt at 3 different times in history and to varying extent. *Stayed over 6/17-18/25 Room was a Queen room. Floors sloped, but expected given the age. The building is on one thermostat. We're from Florida and the room was uncomfortably warm. Window facing brick building next door so opening the window didn't allow for a breeze. There were 2 glasses on dresser but there was no ability to get water or ice. There is also no coffee in the Hotel. You would need to wait for restaurant to open at 11:00am. This made the stay uncomfortable and is the reason I can't give more 's. *Area for improvement would be to have limited refreshment access to Hotel guests and refresh the air quality as it was musty. *Onions restaurant has a nicely executed Menu. Which was 4/5's! Clams sweet and cooked perfectly but not all of the shells were open upon serving (which is a no-no). Haddock Salad had beautiful color and fresh julienned vegetables on hand and fish was crispy and not overcooked. *Tavern opposite of the Restaurant and has local Brew on Tap. 7 Taps and each really good! Beer lines tasted clean and temp was good. Beer tasted crisp and delicious. 5/5's. Parking very limited. Satellite lot approximately 2 blocks down on same side of street.
