“Oh My God! Stay Nowhere Else!”

Nov 03, 2025William B

It's a BEAUTIFUL INN - inside and out. AND... there's a YEAR-ROUND heated outside pool and jacuzzi in the courtyard behind the main inn building! It's just SO COOL to be swimming outside in the fall/winter/spring - at least for me it is! The inn isn't just one building... isn't just the main inn; it's the main inn extension and then it's the OUTBUILDINGS - basically homes turned into multi-suite accommodations. Ours (Sherwood Suite) had it's own driveway parking and garage (though apparently not a functional garage; we simply parked on the driveway). The Inn is actually a "complex" of sorts that ranges over an entire block. The gym (small but nicely equipped) is located in one of the stand-alone accommodation buildings while the Main Dining Room, Tavern, and Lion's Den (basement cocktail and snack lounge w/live music Wed-Sat.) and LARGE gift shop are all located in the main inn building. Beautifully decorated. Homey and comfortable. Complimentary coffee/tea available in the morning set up in the Tavern. Enjoy your coffee either within one of the public sitting rooms of the inn or on the front porch or the rear sun room. The food is WONDERFUL! We enjoyed both a dinner and a breakfast in the Main Dining Room and the food, service, and general atmosphere were... perfect! (And for the quality, the prices are quite reasonable.) The staff - both indoor and outdoor (grounds-keeping) - are professional and friendly and obviously take great pride in working for one of America's oldest and most iconic Inns. Our suite? Lovely! Separate bedroom, living room, bathroom (clawed tub as well as a stand-up shower), and outside roof-top deck and back stairs. Nespresso maker! (*GRIN*) Daily housekeeping. (Which is getting more and more rare throughout the industry.) Fluffy towels. Fluffy bathrobes! Both the Tavern and Lion's Den are very conducive to relaxation! Both are quite popular too! "Classy" without being stuffy. Plenty of parking. Centrally located. (The Inn is actually the CENTER of the town of Stockbridge.) (The town is tiny.) By car most of the Berkshires is easily within a half-hour drive. Basically all of the Central and Southern Berkshires is your "neighborhood" while staying at the Red Lion Inn. The Northern Berkshires is only 40 minutes to an hour away. Once you stay for the first time... my guess is you'll return again and again. Make it a tradition!

“A step back in time in the most wonderful way”

My friends and I had a MAGICAL time in this beautiful, gorgeous hotel. The word hotel doesn't even begin to convey what we experienced. From the second we walked in we were blown away by the LIFE, the buzz, the kindness of people there. We checked in at 9:30 PM and were worried about the lateness, we were exhausted but got a second wind and down we went to the Pub where we clapped and danced to LIVE Music. Conversations were had throughout the weekend with strangers. But also quiet moments enjoyed on the porch early morning... Everyone who works there is so kind... not in a stuffy way but just pure genuine kindness. Our stay felt like a step back in time in the most wonderful way.

“Big surprise at checkout!!!!”

We paid almost $578 per night for a king room on 5th floor and it was awful! The rug was all stained(and damp?) cobwebs,flies, marginal heat , 2 plug outlets and I could go on . The linens were very nice and the dining stafff remained polite and helpful despite obviously understaffed. The price you see on the website is NOT what you will pay. Beware!
