Amazing lunch
Pros:

Amazing lunch with friends. Staff treated us like royalty. The wide front porch with rockers draws you inside. The Inn has a vintage atmosphere with antiques and lovely china on display. The chicken pot pie with puff pastry was excellent. Our server could not have been nicer. The desk clerk gave us a quick history and allowed us to wander. Be sure to note the antique tea pot collection. A real tribute to fine living.

Very clean and safe for a single traveller passing through, with ample parking and good food.
Pros:

The meal in the local pub was very good and the servers very attentive and friendly.

Cons:

The receptionist was not helpful or particularly friendly. She did not have a welcoming attitude, did not explain what the 2 keys were for or how to find the cottage I was staying in with clear directions. Her pen lined pathway was complicated by the small signage of the cottages near the main Inn. I spent a lot of time trying to find it and an open door to Maple Glen when I realized that one key fit the front doors and the other the room door. She also did not inform me that an option was to leave my key in the room upon departure rather than at the reception desk.

Vintage Stockbridge Inn
Pros:

This vintage Inn coerces you to a slower pace of the previous century. Every effort is taken to maintain the Inn's historic aspects: furniture, dishes, lamps, tea pot collections, carved wood, exceptional art work. Do wander and notice all the remarkable details. The rooms have certain aspects updated to modem standard. Our room had a lovely new walk-in shower, but the old antique sink. Comfortable mattress on an antique bed. The staff were friendly, helpful. Street parking free. Three Restaurants on site: full, tavern, and pub with live music.

Cons:

Minimal counter space in bathroom; some plugs did not accept the newer asymmetric prongs .

You pay for the Ambiance!
Pros:

Dined here in the main dining room food was overpriced and not good quality! In addition our waitress Darlene forgot to bring us something we ordered and we never got it!
Nice to visit, although they could do alot better restoring the inn and keeping it to what they are trying to from past history..
Its definitely for tourists ..would not return

Yummy burger in the Tavern
Pros:

Just got home from having a smash burger in the Widow Bigham's Tavern. It is by far the best smash burger in south Berkshire county. And the dipping sauces ( an aioli and a smoky "Lion sauce"), that come with the thin and crispy french fries are scrumptious. My husband and I are full-time Berkshire locals and we drove almost 40 minutes for the burger- perfectly cooked, just the right amount of bun and sauce. Totally delicious.

Surprised that they did that
Pros:

We booked a room in the Red Lion Inn. They did not give us a room there, but located us in one of their old houses not attached to the Inn itself. That was very disappointing.

Cons:

It was not located where the other guests were staying in the Inn itself. They did not disclose this fact to us when we booked the room.

Trumps Ballroom “ Joke” fail
Pros:

I want to explain that I loved our visit and come here once a year.
BUT despite my love, they thought it would be funny to put up a banner saying “ Their ballroom is an under a construction” around April fools day.
This was to make fun of Trumps ballroom -that was all.
The replies were so ugly in their hatred for trump.

As a Republican who has good friends on both sides, I felt devastated.
The times I have spent there from the time I would go as a little girl with my parents from nearby Pittsfield, were so special.
As I got older and moved away, the day we brought our own little boy to visit was a memory I’ll never forget.
Most recently my last relative, my brother passed . That following summer we came to the Berkshires to clean out my family home - my husband took me here to lunch to honor him and I was in tears at the memories and the beauty of this place.

To feel ridiculed about my love for our country at this time makes me sick.
I know it’s a very liberal area.
But the hatred that crawled out of the wood work is eye opening.
I know someone thought it was so funny and clever, but it’s cruel.
I’m hoping that they will not stoop to such a nasty level as your customers come from all over with different backgrounds and views and this was just beyond hurtful
