“One night getaway”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 November 2011
1
person found this review helpful

We recently stayed here on a Sunday night while visiting our kids at school. It was pretty empty but the service was good in both the hotel and restaurant. We had a courtyard room which was very large with an elevated king sized poster bed. The bath was also large with 2 separate sink areas (helpful for 2 people getting ready), a bath, and shower stall. The bath fixtures are a little odd as they are a throwback to the colors of the 1980's. Ours were buttercream. There was a small sign on the vanity that said that although the hotel has gone through many renovations, they kept the old toilets, baths and sinks to remind of us of the yesteryears. We thought they looked more shabby than chic. The size of the tub was curious - it was pretty long but very shallow. I stood next to it and it came up to my mid-calf. The room was very clean however and we had a great night's sleep. Would definitely stay here again.

We are very pleased that you enjoyed your recent stay at the Orchards Hotel. And yeas some our fixtures are a little dated we are pleased that you found our rooms to be clean and comfortable. We think that is most important to our guests. It is sincere hope that you will return to the Orchards and perhaps take advantage of one of the many special packages offered on our website. We will feature several exciting offerings that take advantage of the rich cultural venues present here in the Berkshires. The summer of 2012 will be special as Williamstown Theatre Festival and The Clark Art Institute have wonderful programs planned.

“Luxury in the Berkshires”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 November 2011
2
people found this review helpful

I travel for work and spend more than 5 months a year in hotels around the world. In fact I normally stay at Leading Hotels of the World and was slightly concerned about traveling to a rural environment as I am accustomed to the highest standards in hotel accomodations. I must say, the Orchards Hotel in Williamstown is up there with the top luxury hotels of the world when it comes to accomodation offerings. Lovely antiques and functioning fireplaces adorn the common and guests rooms. The afternoon tea set up was a pleasant surprise as were the homemade chocolate chip cookies left on my pillow during the turn down service. The Orchards Hotel staff were very kind and helpful. Would highly recommend staying at the Orchards Hotel in Williamstown on your next trip to the Berkshires or plan a trip specifically out there to relax and enjoy lovely luxurious surroundings.

Room Tip: king with fireplace, can't go wrong!

“Part of our tour of New England”

Great hotel, great location - it even snowed heavily in October, which we thought was great.

Room was extremely comfortable - service good. Only criticism was that no complimentary drinks for most of day/night - only 2 hours a day.

“A great experience”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 October 2011

My girlfriends and I had a great experience at the Orchard's Hotel when we traveled to western Massachusetts to visit a few museums in the area. We took advantage of a midweek Berkshire on a Budget promotion that the hotel was offering and we couldn't have been happier. The rooms and bathrooms were spacious,and breakfast and dinner at the Gala restaurant were superb. We would definitely return in the future.

“Don't listen to bad reviews”

After last minute plans to stay in Williamstown (and last minute lodging plans), we found ourselves at The Orchards. The room was very spacious and well worth the cost. Very comfortable bed with a great bathroom and shower. Other than the fireplace not working (a minor luxury for us), everything went very smoothly.

Definitely coming back to this place when in town!
