The George

Wonderful stay. Nearby van Vleck gardens are beautiful!

Reception was excellent. Hotel is restored classic building so really interesting space.

The room was comfortable, spacious and clean. Wine in the evening in the library was relaxing and afforded time to chat and meet new people while waiting for my daughter to arrive. Walkable dining options, the candy closet, the ice cream fridge and extended breakfast hours (7-11) all created more of a visit feel than a standard stay.

Rooms had poor bathroom sizes. Suites were NOT really up to par.

Could use much better sound proofing. Upstairs neighbors were getting busy and left the TV on. None of that should have been audible downstairs. I had to go up at 4 in the morning and knock on their door. No staff present at checkout at 7:30 am. Definitely felt overpriced.

Loved my stay at the George. The staff were so lovely and the breakfast was fantastic.

Beautiful and cozy, great staff, fantastic breakfast

Loved the European breakfast … beautiful decor only issue was a portrait of AOC while I was eating breakfast… it was very unappealing… politics and hotels don’t work for me…

Erika and Lily made our less than 24 hours in Montclair super memorable - they helped me organize champagne, greeted us with wine, and OMG the Candy Closet ?!?!?! Breakfast was a dream and we stayed in one of the Family Rooms which was perfect for the three of us - with great space to rest from a long flight, hang out, and get ourselves ready for a fun time in Montclair. The building and accommodation are first class and we are counting the days till we return again. So inspired by the surroundings and service...THANK YOU!

Excellent hotel. Everything about it was terrific.

Charming decor and welcoming staff!

Very clean

We absolutely loved our stay. What an amazing hotel!

My wife and I loved this place and we will definitely be staying there again anytime we come back to NJ. We used to live in Bloomfield NJ but now we live in Southern California, and I had to get a place for a work trip. We stayed here one night in “Steve” and one night later we came back and stayed in “Duke,” which was our favorite of the two. Super clean, upscale, and the free wine at 5pm was a nice treat. Parking was easy, and we highly recommend this spot.

This is our second time staying at The George. We felt welcomed and safe. We LOVED it the first time so, of course, we had to make another visit. Unfortunately, this trip wasn't the same. Our bathroom smelled wet and as if it wasn't cleaned properly. Some of the towels had a brown stain and a peculiar smell.

Very nice place !

Loved this hotel

Beautiful little hotel.
Highly recommended.

It’s like staying at your friend’s house. And your friend doesn’t like you all that well.
First, this is not a hotel. If it were branded as an inn, it would be lovely. You ring a bell to be let in; you find your own room and your own way around; there is no on-site staff after hours; every room has its quirks. All might be fine.
Except that you’re paying $550 a night to stay in someone’s musty basement where you have to change the dehumidifier every few hours. You weren’t told of this before or during check-in. When you ask if anything else can be done about the moisture issue (it STINKS!), the desk person is very clearly annoyed and says, I KNOW it’s a problem. Like, You’re the one who wants to stay here, so deal with it!
After changing rooms - it takes hours to find out if it is even possible to change rooms - you find yourself in the finished attic. Super cute, just as the first floor and room were. But there’s nothing covering a decent sized window in the bedroom, and all the street light comes in at night. The air conditioning in the bedroom works only when you turn it on, meaning that once it runs through a cycle, the unit shuts off. You have to get up multiple times during the night (or anytime you wake up covered in sweat), and turn the air unit back on if you want it to run. The shower drips very loudly and you are thrilled that you brought your earplugs so you can muffle that sound out and get a little shut eye.
Sadly, I could go on, but there are some positives. At least one of the staff members is nice and friendly. I say ‘at least one’ because I’m sure there must be another? The hotel is very dog friendly, which is a plus if you have or love dogs. The architecture and visual aspects are really nice. Both rooms were pretty clean, except for the random sock left on the floor next to the dresser (not underneath it, mind you, but next to it), a previously used paper container for the room key found under the chair, and the open safety pin lying on the carpet in the middle of the room.
At this point, I’m too afraid to complain or say something, and I just can’t wait to get out of here.
