“Relaxing retreat”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 June 2011

The Topia Inn (the Aloha room!) provided us with a much needed, relaxing getaway. We only stayed two nights, but it was revitalizing and a fun experience. We would consider ourselves to be minimally green (we try to do the best we can, but it's a very devoted lifestyle), so it was interesting to see and take part in a completely green lifestyle. I give major Kudos to the innkeepers for their hard work and dedication to this lifestyle! We stayed in the Aloha room, and are now looking into purchasing a floating bed, because the bed itself promotes relaxation--you cannot possibly be angry, intense, or anything other than relaxed and happy in that bed, and why shouldn't you have a retreat in your own home? The food was made with a lot of love and care, and was very good. Organic ingredients and clean food always taste so much better than what we put into our bodies every other day of the week. This place was IMMACULATE! I'm a neat freak, I can't even get into a shower if there is so much as a hair on the wall. I scoured the bathroom and the bedroom and couldn't find anything that made me cringe, or even any signs that anyone else had ever even stayed there...it was so clean and well cared for. We went on this trip to spend time outdoors, we biked the 22 mile Ashuwilticook trail and did some hiking on the mountains. The Berkshires is more art and outdoors oriented than anything else, so don't expect a high thrills adventure. There's not a whole lot to do, but we had a lot of fun and we would definitely recommend the Topia Inn to our friends! The town itself (and the surrounding towns) are pretty run down, the inn itself is on a semi busy road in a somewhat run down borderline shady area, so it could get kinda loud at night when the windows were open, but nothing is perfect.

Room Tip: Aloha room-hands down!

“Sorry”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 June 2011

This place was recommended by a friend.Upon entering my room I was over come by a strange mold like odor.I did appreciate the green friendly attitude,but found the bath products lacking in quality so I bent the rules and used my own.During my entire stay here I felt as though I was being watched and this left me uncomfortable.Mingling here with others I found the conversations to liberal and wanna be for my tastes.Hosts were polite.I did like the location.The food was lacking in quality and taste.I really tried to give this place a chance but in the end it just not was up to par in my humble opinion.

We have a whole house air filtration system with UV-C light to kill bacteria. Fresh air is filtered and pulled into the inn and is renewed every hour. Our air conditioner was turned on that day for the first time that season. What the guest did not mention was that the musty smell was gone in a few minutes once the system was refreshed.
We have created an environment for people who want to get away from chemical perfumes and fragrances. We hope to attract the eco-Tourist, the person who is a conscious traveler and respects the environment the way we do. Most of the people who come here are either already interested in this lifestyle or curious to learn more. There is no pressure on our part to change your lifestyle, we just ask that you are conscious that not everyone can tolerate the chemicals that are put into bath and body products. We wash our organic linens and towels with pure and natural detergents in house and do our best to ensure that these do not get contaminated by the types of products this guest brought with her. That is why we have a non-chemical fragrance policy and we ask our guests to leave their products at home. What this guest does not know is that the chemical fragrances she uses can cause discomfort and even injury to other guests.

“Awesome, will be back”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 June 2011

A lovely inn located in a charming town in the most beautiful area of Massachusetts. Spotlessly clean, exceptional service and breakfast was delicious. This is an eco-inn, if you can't respect that, book somewhere else. But don't think it's rustic, it's rather sophisticated instead. The organic bath and body products provided were a welcome change, very effective, and provoked a re-thinking of the abundance of chemicals we encounter in everyday life. Close to numerous recreational and cultutral opportunities.

“earth-friendly relaxation”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 March 2011

Just got back from our weekend in Adams, MA with the ever so welcoming Caryn and Nana. What a delight! Topia is really a gem in the Berkshires. The moment you arrive and take off your shoes, you are introduced to their little oasis. From the complementary organic teas and coffee, to the amazing products available in your room, to the delicious breakfast, there isn't really a lot more you could ask for from Topia. First important thing to note, is that you aren't meant to bring ANY of your own toiletries from home. They use only organic and generally fragrance-free products and want only those things going into their water system. Take this as your opportunity to enjoy the AMAZING things they provide and to pack a little lighter, they really have everything you could want/need (toothpaste, shaving cream, moisturizer, hair gels, bath salts, deodorant...seriously, you name it they've got it). My boyfriend and I were lucky enough to stay in the Aloha room with its amaaazing floating bed! I was really excited for this and it ended up everything I hoped. Amazingly comfortable and I slept like a rock. Also I want to mention the comforter which I need to find/buy for myself--it was so fluffy and warm, and amazingly none of the down had shifted. I am not sure how they achieved this, but I'd love to know. Our particular room came with a jet tub equipped with color-changing lights. Fun, large, and pretty deep. The tub also had a shower attachment so showering in the AM was no problem. I have nothing negative to say, this was a fantastic experience and I'd love to return!! Thank you for a great weekend!

“Comfy stay and good hospitality”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 October 2010

The booking confirmation was a little scary with lots of details about how one couldn't use chemical products (including toothpaste, deodorant, perfume, etc.) in the Inn or wear outside shoes, however, once you've arrived and settled in, this becomes a non-issue. Very welcoming hosts and comfortable rooms with lots of (non-chemical) products provided for guests' use in the rooms.

Breakfast included a daily breakfast dish that was cooked and provided alongside a range of teas and coffees.

Good position for South Vermont and MA.
