The hotel was immaculate. My bed was extremely comfortable and the linens were fantastic. There was a snow storm over night and in the morning one of the staff members was working a clearing snow and took the time to come help me clear my car of the ice and snow. Really exceptional and greatly appreciated. I will be back for sure.

Nice find

The General Stanton Inn is a nice find in Charlestown, RI. I stayed with friends on New Year's Eve just to get out of the city. Booked with Hotels.com and the whole process was flawless. They even upgraded my reservation.

Lovely historic property. Comfortable beds, very nice bathrooms, warm environment. Continental breakfast was excellent with fresh out of the oven blueberry muffins and the most amazing homemade butter! I'm coming back!

The shower was very large. Had to turn the shower on in order for the sink water to get hot. Kind of unusual. Property has a definite old time feel to it. No tv in the room.

We had a wonderful experience at The General Stanton Inn - it was a last minute booking and we were SO happy with our experience! The decor and attention to detail was charming the rooms were beautifully done and the bathroom remodel in our suite was magnificent! The Tavern was amazing, the food delish….the bartenders were great but Christina was on point! The history added to the charm of the Inn! Well done David & Jackie well done! We will certainly be back!!

I was warmly greeted the moment I walked in to check in and was then escorted to my room. The room was immaculate and the bed so comfortable. Not a speck of mold or mildew in the bathroom. Despite the age of the Inn, it was in such nice shape and so well maintained. This Inn is loved by the owners who clearly take pride in it.

We loved the uniqueness of the property and the bedrooms were perfect for our stay. We would have liked a coffee machine in the room or access to one for early morning risers. That being said, Amber came in extra early to provide us breakfast and that was much appreciated. We will definitely be back with more members of our family. Also Music Trivia was a fantastic surprise!
