used to be stunning, and now it is just okay. The changes from an elegant Inn (we had our wedding guests stay there in 2010), to a weird decor with lots of bright red and huge statues of horses and renamed “The Red Horse” David Burkes restaurant- just doesn’t meld with the charm of the old inn. And- every time we stay, we get the top floor. This time t(no bellhop!) the person at the front desk carried o e bag and I had to carry the other. No one helped us at check out. They forgot to replace the towels. No gym or use of a local gym. It’s just gone downhill. And dirty carpets. Yuck.

Charming and historic - but falls short, for price

Charming old inn. We really enjoyed that aspect. Loved the winding sets of stairs up to our room. (NB: no elevator.) Loved the historic vibe, from our canopy bed, to the whole inn, and the immediate surrounding town. Plenty of good restaurants and activities in the area. Bathroom fixtures and finishes were quality and beautiful. Linens and housekeeping were high quality. Front desk was helpful and pleasant. Unfortunately, some aspects were off, which made the room feel dirty, cramped, and a bit worn. Worst, the wall-to-wall carpet was stained and dirty, which made me doubt everything else. The "Historic King Deluxe" room with roll-away bed was too cramped for three. It was tough to move around, and there was no space to sit together in the room. There weren't even three chairs in the room, just two (a desk chair and an armchair). Bathroom was very small. No tub, and hard for an average size person to use the shower without brushing up against the walls. Nowhere to hang towels to dry. Etc. Mattress was too short for the bed frame - big gap at your feet. A lot of the wood furniture was dinged. (I'm not talking genuine 100-plus-year-old antiques with the beautiful wear of time. This was newer, more solid, though traditional-style furniture.) I enjoyed our stay. But I do expect higher overall quality at this price point.

Beautiful boutique hotel. Room was spacious and furnished with lovely furniture. Our bed was extremely comfortable, quality towels and robes. There is no elevator! Something to be aware of if you have limited mobility.

Beautiful old hotel . Well kept ! Staff was great and restaurant was wonderful . My only complaint is that there is no elevator and the staircases are irregular and pose a tripping/ slipping hazard . Also , no service available to help with luggage . Finally , the parking lot should be available to patrons only . Parking on The street or train station overnight will result in a ticket from the local police .

So it’s an inn. No ice machine, no elevator and parking off site that’s often full. If you are ok with quaint and often inconvenient, it’s a cute place with good restaurant. If you don’t want hassle it’s not for you. Arrived afree long drive and had no parking anywhere. Had to carry luggage two blocks and carry up to third floor. Carpet near bottom of stairs filthy. Carpet in room old and stretched. Had full sized old mattress that was way too small. We kept rolling into the middle so didn’t sleep well. Staff was very nice and restaurant on first floor very good. This is a place to stay for a getaway not when you need sleep/ease/support. A lot of food options walkable.

I loved everything about our stay at Bernard’s Inn. The room and bath were very clean! The bed slept great! The hotel common areas were very well kept and you always saw someone mopping or cleaning windows. We arrived late in the evening and the hotel desk clerk even carried our bags up to our room while my husband parked the car. That was very kind of him. The location is fantastic and convenient to walking to everything. We will definitely be back!

While it is charming I cannot say I would recommend it. My room was across from the train tracks (think My Cousin Vinny with the 2am train blowing by). Restaurant was below my room and people were loud which is fine, but the noise traveled and it felt like the windows weren’t closed shut because of how clear the sound carried. Remote control was sticky. Carpet had stains and the smell that greeted me when I entered my room was stale and musty. Bathroom was clean as was the bed and the linens. Staff were friendly.
