I don’t know who decides how many stars a hotel property gets but the amenities were below 3 star hotels. The curtains let in light, the street noises were pretty loud, the shower head let water flow poorly, the heater was loud during operation, and there was random knocking sounds all night coming from the hall. It was an experience different from your typical brand name hotel but I’ll be keeping it a one-time experience.

This is our second stay at The Stockade Inn, a boutique hotel in a historic property located in a historic district. The rooms are still lovely with a fresh coat of paint. We were surprised at the new ownership, but John and Z are terrific. They were great hosts who were interested in our opinions about their renovations. We think they are on the right path keeping as much historic fabric and details as possible, but we really appreciated the handicap ramp! The cute cafe on the ground floor was very convenient for late sleepers like us, and yoga was free for guests. The best of both worlds! We highly recommend The Stockade Inn. Janice and Neil

Nice Old-Fashioned Stay

The hotel seemed very clean to me, but "cleanliness" can't really be rated, unless a room is obviously dirty. The very personable owner (manager?), Zakhar, isn't on-site, but he does a good job communicating by text. Once he knows your estimated arrival time he's there to greet you, etc.

A delight from start to finish. Great communication from staff in advance and during stay. Accommodated me in several ways because was in Schenectady for a Marathon. Beautiful, historic facility and neighborhood, very comfortable room and bed. There’s also a contemporary Woodstock atmosphere with a yoga/wellness center and, on my Saturday, a gallery with alternative health care and culture items. All in all, an unexpectedly memorable experience. Highly recommend in your traveling the region.

The Stockade Inn is a gem that is in the process of being polished. We loved the historic beauty of the building and the area. It is undergoing renovation, so it is a work in progress. Our room was lovely. Big windows overlooking the beautiful neighborhood. The staff/owners were extremely nice and helpful. The coffee shop on the first floor is excellent and so handy. The carpet in the halls was a bit tired, but that didn't bother us. If you want brand new and generic, this is not for you. If you want something unique with a long, grand history, in an historic neighborhood, I would highly recommend. I saw on Instagram that HBO recently filmed some scenes for "The Guilded Age" at the Stockade Inn. I can see why. Very much like stepping back in time to an age of beauty (albeit with a few wrinkles)

The owners and staff are some of most friendly people I have ever met, I would return for the hospitality alone. This inn has a lot of historic charm and is in the process of being renovated to provide some more modern touches while still staying authentic to the feel of the building. My room was very comfortable and I was a 4 minute walk away from the concert I was attending at Frog Alley Brewing Co. The staff checked in via text the morning of my arrival to see when I was expected to arrive and the following morning to see if I needed anything and recommend I check out the coffee bar. In the morning, I went down and grabbed a iced blueberry honey cake latte and a lemon oat bar for breakfast from Graham's Coffee Parlor. The coffee parlor looked fabulous and the staff was kind. The coffee & baked goods were delicious! If I had more time, I had planned on checking out the yoga studio and potentially even getting a massage but I needed to hit the road. Can't wait to return and see the continued improvements.

As a first time guest it wasn't clear how to check in. The front door was locked and although I was given a code ot get in, it wasn't clear how to find my room or key. I had to ask another guest who just happened to be in one of the downstairs areas how to find registration, which was a lone man in a back office with the door closed. Our room did not have a number on it, so I wouldn't have been able to find it by myself. The room was nice and clean, although there was a bug (some kind of roach?) in the bathroom. There looked to be an interesting coffee shop downstairs, but it wasn't open before 8 or after 2, which is when I would have been able to get something. For a first time it wasn't great. I would go back again, although the price was high for the lack of service.

My son and I recently toured the beautiful campus of Union College and had a memorable experience at The Stockade Inn. The staff was incredibly friendly and informative, adding to the charm of the visit. What makes The Stockade special is its unique character. If you’re looking for a typical commercial hotel experience, this isn’t it. Instead, you’ll find a place that truly represents the culture and history of Schenectady. The only downside during our stay was that renovations were underway, so things weren’t as presentable as they could be. However, it looks like it will be wonderful once the work is complete.
