Our stay at The Dewey was fantastic! Everything was easy and efficient, and it was so close to both town and Tanglewood. The bed was comfortable, the water pressure in the 3rd floor shower was fantastic, and the room was well-appointed without being overly crowded. I also have to commend the owners for their attention to detail - after many, many years of traveling all over the world, this was the first time I have ever stayed in a hotel where the hairdryer came with a diffuser attachment. (What a treat for my curls!) We would definitely stay here again.

We were surprised to enter the property and find no one to greet us. There should have been a prominent sign that said that guests needed to check in at the other hotel. But instead we buzzed buzzers and called the emergency number trying to find someone to check us in.

Rooms are on the second and third floors and no elevator. Our standard king on the second floor did not have an en suite bathroom. Needed to go across the hall to the toilet. The shower stall was very small and the overhead rainfall shower head was very big. The weekend breakfast buffet about what you would find at a low-cost chain motel. That said, the coffee was very tasty and access to Tanglewood was simple.

The Whitlock is right in town, loving eating area and sitting and bar downstairs. Rooms are simple and open and spacious- we had a suite. Bathroom was great lots of light and windows. The Dewey was absolutely sublime- so period - several cozy living rooms all the sitting, books, games and nic knacks to admire. Convenient kitchen with yummy breakfast nibbles.

Lovely old house, renovated for comfort but still with a grand feel. Terrific staff, very helpful and friendly! The breakfast is more of a “grab n go” coffee, yogurt, and muffin table, but what a great front porch to sit and enjoy it! And there are great restaurants within walking distance if you want a bigger meal. Extra special: right across the street is a gorgeous public park (Kennedy?) which was an unexpected delight for a morning walk. Big forest, expansive vistas, quiet paths-

Beautiful old home, so much warmth. Large room. Nice snacks and access is easy to kitchen and common room. We walked to dinner to Frankie’s, and it was somewhat dangerous walking down the front stairs and steps with no lighting at the Dewey. Otherwise we loved our stay!

I booked a large room with a seating area and table that they called a classic king.The room they gave me was much smaller than the room I booked. In their ads they refer to the room they gave me as a deluxe king room although it wasn't as large and didn't have the amenities of the other. After booking (non-refundable) I was told that I would need to stop at another inn a mile away from The Dewey to register and pick up my key. This would have been okay given the type of property but should have been disclosed in advance of booking. When I told them in a text that the room was not the one I booked, I received a text back saying (and I quote): "What seems to be the issue?" Yikes! I was subsequently told that the only deluxe room was already booked so they gave me this room. It seems to me that when a room is already booked, it is no longer available!

You can hear every sound that every guest makes in this house. It is impossible to sleep. Our room did not have a bathroom attached and this was not in the room description. There is an inch gap between the walls and door so there is literally no sound proofing. There is also no attendant on site and when I called the line to request something for our room no one answered. Overall a completely terrible experience, the worst place I have ever stayed

We were not informed that the bathroom was NOT part of the room, but across the public hallway. Even though it was for our use only, I would have never accepted the room had I known in advance. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it but would request a different room with an en-suite bathroom.

Charming hotel up on a hill with a view of downtown Lenox and the hills beyond. Spent a long weekend in the Hawthorne suite. A nicely designed space for laying about and reading books. Super nice bathroom with a skylight over a clawfoot tub, even on a cold winter day it was wonderful to take a steaming hot bath with natural light flooding in from above. The staff at the hotel were fantastic too. I showed up to check in, realizing just then that I had inadvertently booked the room for the following week. The concierge didn’t even blink, but within a matter of minutes had sorted out my reservation with no additional charges. I would be back at this property in a heartbeat. One additional note, the hotel is just a stones throw from the Center of Lennox and an easy walk or a very quick drive from a great pizzeria on Main Street, and the downtown shops, cafés, and restaurants off Housatonic Street.

Overall pretty disappointed. We went out of our way to book a room with a fireplace only to find out it was not operational yet. The carriage house also did not have working wifi, the entrance smelled moldy, and the hand soap for the bathroom was empty. No big deal, but I asked on two separate occasions to get a refill and was told it would be taken care of - had to go out and get our own. You also have to check in at another location which was a little strange but totally doable. Overall feels like a leftover bed and breakfast that is going by the wayside.

Not worth the cost. Old. Small bugs. Smelly.

My room was very small, and the whole place smelled very old. I understand that it is an old and very historic place but I did not expect it to smell that way. I was in a tiny room in the carriage house. They probably should have cleaned a little bit better as the bathroom had little bugs flying around, and a big spider and web. The dresser I would put my clothes into smelled like my grandmother’s mothball infested trunk. I was disappointed that it was just a very basic continental breakfast, and nothing was even homemade. It was impossible to find anybody on site who worked there. It was also very loud in the carriage house with the other room occupied. I would be fine with this if the cost was inexpensive. However, the cost was more than you would pay for a five-star hotel per night. Overall, I really wanted to like this place . Unfortunately, I did not.
