cozy!

Fantastic, cozy, CLEAN, safe spot to hunker down in for a weekend. We stayed in the Honeymoon Suite, with its jacuzzi tub and electric fireplace for 3 nights with our small dog. The Inn is the perfect place to take a load off - complete with coffee/tea, breakfast/snacks, doggie welcome basket and tons of hominess! The owners are super helpful and available - we wanted a contactless stay and they provided clean plates, garbage removal, food replenishment and other necessities without entering the space. All I can say is come here and you won't regret it. LOVE IT!

This is one of the best b&b's we've been able to visit. We found it on bringfido.com since we wanted to bring our 60lb pup. We got upgraded to the honeymoon suite. Had a fireplace, jacuzzi in bathroom a nice deck in the back and sitting area in front, a little kitchenette. The owners pay a lot of attention to little details. There are things for the pup, food and snacks, wine.

Late at night, pulling off the highway with my mother we were looking for anywhere to rest our heads. We happen to see a sign for a cute little Inn. Once there we saw the absolutely adorable garden in the front, even at night was such an adorable sight. The manager was an absolute ANGEL, helpful and kind. Once in our rooms we were BLOWN away! So much space! So much homely feelings! Everything was thought of! Tv was set to a beautiful warming jazz, the fireplace was on, the setting of the whole place felt like home, and My house doesn't look like this at all!! To top it all off, they had breakfast in the rooms ready for us in the morning. If that's not the absolute cutest shit. Home made quiche, bagels, muffins, locally brewed coffee. I'm truly grateful my mother and I pulled in. I'll Never forget this adorable, welcoming, and rejuvenating inn. Thank you, Shaker Mill.

We had a great stay here. The owners are very accommodating and helpful. The room was very clean and updated. A nice bottle of wine was waiting for us when we arrived. John supports veterans. We will be visiting again.

We just got back home from a 3 night stay! Shaker mill inn was in the perfect location to explore the Berkshires. Extremely dog friendly room. Added bonus that breakfast was included. We will definitely be returning!

Doggy welcome basket

Beautiful and cozy. Brought our dog who received his own welcome basket. Room was clean and spacious. Stocked with little goodies and snacks mini fridge and coffee. Breakfast in fridge complementary wine in room. Bathroom clean and cozy and stocked with toiletries. Grounds are beautiful and well kept. Owners are very nice, accommodating, and helpful. Would recommend, and stay here again. Gas Wood stove and AC they got you covered no matter the season.

Beautiful spot !!

This gem of a place made our getaway such an awesome time...we spent most of our time "hanging around" right here !!! John and Pattie could not be nicer...attention to detail and a warm feeling...these people love what they do !! Such a relaxed and friendly vibe...will be back !!!!

Awesome stay here! Owners and staff are so friendly. Rooms are clean and spacious. They have a lovely deck and yard to make it even more relaxing. They also allow pets in certain rooms and provide a basket with food bowls, towels, blankets and treats for your dog during the stay. I'll be heading back there soon!!

A complimentary bottle of wine!

Located in the furthest reaches of the Berkshires where all the good stuff is. This inn brings comfort and luxury back into your day after hiking in the beautiful countryside. Bill and Mary operate a very clean, cozy, comfortable & unique roadside inn. A must stop if you're anywhere in the area. They close for the winter.

Best angle of the room I have. So much to look at!

See all

The crowd was chatty at first but eventually realized what a show they were missing and all eyes were on Glori and her band. Cocktails are very creative and delicious but quite pricey. The food was tasty- the menu is limited - maybe only 6-7 options. We laughed at the Mini Chicken Schnitzels as a name that you would only find in the Berkshires to describe chicken nuggets. Im sure they were delcious but we went for a cheeseburger and the salmon carpaccio. My husband said that the burger was the best he has had for a long time. Just perfection! The salmon was great too- very finely sliced raw fish with a delicious sauce. I also got a salad which could have been half the size but it was really yummy with parmesan crisps.

The rooms are somewhat charming - a bit dated with older fixtures - but cute. If you are going to Kripalu and don't want to stay on campus, it's a nice alternative. The cons: We have been staying at inns and B&B's for many decades. When a place advertises "breakfast included" it typically means choices for a full breakfast. This really needs to read "continental breakfast included." The homemade muffins were very good, granola and greek yogurt also good (though would have preferred a choice of yogurts as I prefer vegan), some fresh fruit, slices of bread and a bowl of hard boiled eggs was all nice but not what I would call "breakfast included." Also, we noticed immediately that the room we had did not fit the description given to us of our room when we booked. We were told it had a mountain view which it did not. Upon asking about this, the gentleman at the desk kindly acknowledged that in his email communication he had inadvertently mixed up the room descriptions. This was not an issue and the room we had was fine but it would have been nice to have received some token of recognition for this miscommunication.

We had wonderful lunch in the main dining room in the Red Lion Inn. Our waiter Matt was very nice! Unfortunately he had the whole dining room and things took time. Other than that we truly enjoyed our lunch. I had the Roast Beef sandwich special which was fantastic! One of the best I have ever had. Not sure it is worth $28 for a small sandwich though. My wife loved her Caprese Sandwich. I had Apple Pie with a scoop of vanilla ice cream which was good... not great. I'd skip it next time. Matt came with the coffee I ordered and said the pie was in the oven so when it finally came out I was expecting a very hot apple pie. That was not the case which was disappointing. Overall a wonderful experience and if we are ever in the area again, we would definitely stop for lunch again.

With modern amenities, it still Managed to keep its old world charm Food at the Wolf Den Tavern offered some of the best clam chowder I have ever had Enjoyed the hot tub but both hot tub and pool were difficult getting in and out of for someone with mobility issues like me Breakfast in the main dining room was also wonderful with very pleasant staff Upon check in, the only employee at the registration desk was on the phone with a customer for a good 15-20 minutes while the line behind me were all waiting to check in. Since check in time is 4:00, and we were there at 4:30 it seems like there should be more than one employee checking in customers Overall a wonderful stay. One that I would happily do again

BEWARE of this Hotel and its unprofessional, and downright cruel GENERAL MANAGER - LAURA RUMMEL!!!!…read more We had a terrible encounter here at this Hampton Inn with Laura Rummel, General Manager. I would steer clear of this hotel and go elsewhere if you are able to as she is unprofessional, rude and condescending. I have been a loyal Hampton Inn customer for decades and a DIAMOND HILTON member, and have never in my life had a negative interaction with any hotel personnel, particularly a General Manager! This is my first complaint, but I felt it was quite necessary to help others to avoid this abuse. My 5 year old daughter attempted to get a paper cup off of the counter during breakfast, and was scolded by Ms. Rummel and told no that she could not get a cup. My daughter came back crying hysterically. I approached Ms. Rummel and asked what she had said to my daughter since she was crying, and was told that she told her NO bc she was "messing up her teas." I looked over and saw 2 tea bags that were somewhat out of place. I asked my daughter to clarify what had happened, and she stated that she was trying to get the cup and the teas got caught on her sweater, so she was placing them back. I went back to discuss this misunderstanding with Ms. Rummel, who was adamant that my daughter was out to mess up the coveted teabags here. So, I asked her name and explained to her that I thought she was unkind for making my daughter cry, and that it was odd that she did not feel badly or even attempt to apologize for making a child cry. **She blatantly told me that SHE WAS NOT GOING TO APOLOGIZE, and that my daughter should not be messing up her teabags and that she should not have been unaccompanied (mind you - 6 ft from where we were eating breakfast in a clear vantage point of me). I informed her I would be making a complaint with Hampton and she told me she "DID NOT CARE, BECAUSE AS THE GENERAL MANAGER - ALL COMPLAINTS COME TO HER ANYWAYS." After I told her I would be calling corporate, she continued to double down on this statement multiple times that it didn't matter, since the complaints come to her.** So, BEWARE if you choose this hotel that clearly Ms. Rummel is an unhinged individual with a power complex, and will not care about your well-being, and, in fact, overtly try to to make you feel unwelcome and uncomfortable. Save yourself some frustration and mental anguish and stay at another Hilton property, or at least until Ms. Rummel has been replaced.

But the Marriott standard is not being checked or upheld. I'm lifetime platinum. I've stayed roughly 900 nights in Marriott properties. I have a baseline to compare. 1) clean towels absolutely stunk. Like sat for days in the washer to mold and then dry stench. Getting them wet made it 199x worse. 2) had to beg for the bedding for the fold out couch. Was told it was under the tv. I checked 4 times. Even went back to check. Not there. Had to beg to get. 3) came at an odd hour. Son and I looking for a snack. The market was literally bare. All shelves spread out with original skittles and potato chips. That's it. Freezer section was off. Nothing in there but a towel for moisture. Soda and drinks were old and Pepsi product - any self-respecting Marriott fan knows they ended their 34-year relationship with Pepsi for Coke. That brand standard is not being enforced. 4) in the room remote controls don't work, end tables plugs don't have power, lights unplugged and their cords are behind headboards. Dishwasher full. Just overall a miss. This is likely all unknown to corporate and on the operator. Maybe it was a glitch. But there's so many options in the area I am going to continue to find new and different. Positives: morning shift folks were lovely and breakfast was hot and fresh.

They stated waste as primary reason. But during the cold winter months its always nice to have some coffee and hot cocoa. Breakfast quality and selection. Over the past year and especially after the pandemic the quality of the breakfast has really gone down. No more whip cream for the waffles. No more strawberry sauce. No more toppings. No salsa available. New patrons might not notice. But I've been coming here for the past 15 years so I notice. Rooms themselves are still fine. Maybe getting to be slightly dated but overall still well maintained. They do have to bring some of these things back!

All I can say is that I have never never never encountered as nice of a place - and as nice of hosts, than at Granville House. We were lucky enough to score a room here during the 2021 holiday season and we took it without high expectations - but holy snowflake Batman! This place is amazing! And I had the pleasure of meeting both owners and connecting as nice easy going human beings. What a find! Our first night was especially special because we got a size-able snowfall! So I spent quite a bit of time downstairs by the fireplaces, playing billiards, listening to vinyl records, and under the front porch space heaters. Magical is a word I might use but it's inadequate. I think I prefer transcendental. I tend to give emphatic reviews seldom - only when a place really impresses me (or disappoints me). All I can say about this place is please don't book the nights I want next year!! And in the meantime - go find out what you are missing!!

The Cornell Inn is simply and easily the cleanest place I've ever stayed in the world (and I've stayed in 5 star hotels like Intercontinental Istanbul, Intercontinental Los Angeles, Ritz Carlton Central Park South, and Trump International NYC). The suite was large and elegant and comfortable and everything in it was absolutely spotless. The staff were kind and helpful, eager to swap out the complimentary bottle of cabernet (?) for my wife's preferred chardonnay, and provide us with several brownies. Breakfasts were very good. I really don't have a single complaint, can't wait to stay here again in the future!

We stay at bed and breakfasts because of the breakfast, not the beds. The options were bagel and cream cheese, yogurt with fruit or a veggie fritatta. When I saw the menu I flipped it over because I thought, "this can't be it." But it was, that is what 500 bucks a night got you. A 2x2 inch square of cold veggie fritatta. They tell you you can have all the sides you want so we ordered the fruit salad(grapes, watermelon and a few blueberries),potatoes and toast. Toast never came and the potatoes were also cold and were definitely from a bag of frozen potatoes. Management needs to level up the food game. It's just not acceptable at this price point. I can't fathom what people were raving about re the online reviews for breakfast. The second morning, we skipped breakfast at the Inn and went to Haven cafe. They really know how to do breakfast at Haven. Do yourself a favor and go there instead. Also, if you are staying in the Anne Macy suite, be prepared that it is right along a busy street so the traffic noise might be disruptive to those who are light sleepers. It didn't bother us, but something to be aware of for those who are sensitive to noise. I don't think I'd recommend this inn to friends or family.
