This hotel is so beautiful. I was completely shocked when I pulled up in my car. I did t expected to see how beautiful this hotel is. The picture on the internet did not capture the real beauty of this hotel. I was greeted by guest and felt really good I about the decision I made to booked a room here. I went during the winter and the decoration included the beauty of this hotel was stunning. The room was perfect and they also had a small restaurant/ bar that closes at 10:00 pm. We did have dinner and the food was delicious but the restaurant was pretty plain and didn’t match the hotels look. The service was excellent and the food was so delicious. I was very pleased with our decision of staying here. I was a little worried when I saw the picture of the hotel online BUT I must say it was quite the surprise. I will definitely be coming back to stay. This hotel was an amazing.

Okay.

Booked a room with a king, got one with a queen and a broken TV (partner had to sleep diagonally because of the bed size). Otherwise clean.

Stay was pleasant, but some of the staff were unnecessarily rude or unhelpful. Most of them were very nice though. A painting fell on my sister’s hand and it started bleeding. A bandaid was offered but no other accommodation like a free dinner or something for the inconvenience was not nice to see as the painting just randomly fell on her.

Our new go-to place to stay when skiing at Wachusett! Lovely hotel with spacious rooms at a great price with a warm, helpful staff. A good gym, pool and hot tub, and restaurant where friendly bartender Mary makes us feel welcome make for a pleasant stay.
