“Historic hotel. Noteworth decor but Disappointing Restaurant Experience”

Sep 02, 2025Michelle R

The hotel is an operating museum in itself. I applaud the upkeep and care that must go into upgrading such a historic museum. However, the restaurant experience was mediocre at best. Great service. However, it is VERY dark. We were seated in uncomfortable caned chairs, the caning was drooping down leaving only the exterior frame as support on more than one chair, I noticed. The food was mediocre at best. The salmon was plain, with side veggies that were cold and tasted as if they came from a bag of diced mixed veggies. Asparagus and corn fritter appetizer left alot to be desired....firtter too well done and flat. The purple carrot "dip" was about the size of a tablespoon, and unremarkable in flavor. The pecan pie seemed like a frozen, storebought. Steak dinner was $65 on the menu. (Pricing for beef was probably not their fault...the economy is driving beef prices through the roof.) I think there are better dining options in the area.

“Terrible and disappointing.”

So disappointed. The charm is lost with disheveled accommodations. Old rug in room so dirty and old furniture. Shades in the room were like when I was a kid (snap up kind and one didn’t snap up). The porch outside our room full of cobwebs. Lots of traffic noise. Almost $500 since it was a big Tanglewood concert. Just stay at a chain place and save your money.

We booked a room in the main building with a king size bed, but at check in we were told this room was out of service. They offered an upgrade. Sounded good. We were meeting for dinner with old friends who live in the area. The upgrade was an ill maintained, shabby, 3 room apartment in an adjacent building. It had a queen bed, which we were willing to take for the sake of the friends we had arranged to meet. The rugs were threadbare and had several tripping hazards. A piece of metal protruded from the baseboard heating along one side of the bed. The bed was at least 3 feet high and almost impossible to get onto. During the night when I got up to use the bathroom, I fell off the bed. Fortunately I did not get injured, but there was no going back to sleep from 3:00 am onward. The desk staff was very courteous both at check in and check out when we complained bitterly and asked to see the manager. I asked to see the room that was supposed to be ours, but was unusable. They could find out which room it was. No manager was available at that hour, but they said one would call us. I had to call her. She was apologetic, using the word "sorry" over and over again. I asked to for a refund and she offered $50 (the bill was $345). We've stayed many times over the years, but will never return or recommend the Red Lion again. SORRY!
