I can't say enough good things about The Ellery Hotel. Every time I stay, the property is spotless — the rooms, common areas, and amenities are consistently clean and well-maintained. The staff truly sets this hotel apart: they are always welcoming, polite, and go above and beyond to make me feel valued and at home. Parking is convenient, which makes the whole experience even smoother. I highly recommend The Ellery Hotel to anyone looking for a comfortable, reliable, and truly enjoyable stay.

Excellent hotel within its type. Unpretentious

We have stayed at the Ellery before and we will stay there again. It is not a swanky or expensive hotel but it delivers on all the important things: comfort, cleanliness, and quiet. The breakfast is outstanding for a simple breakfast buffet. The common room downstairs is comfortable and inviting for reading or quiet conversation. The rooms have just enough room. It will probably need more renovation soon, but we like it as is.

Cute Hotel but Bring Your Own Pillows

The room was very clean, the location is convenient but the pillows were dreadfully hard. It was unfortunately a very bad night of sleep for my daughter and I. Bring you own pillows if you can!

Reliable but not luxury

We stayed for a weekend while visiting friends-the Northampton area is wonderful. This hotel/motel has pluses and minuses. Pluses: quaint lobby and cozy breakfast sitting area. The breakfast was perfect, not too meager but not a menu. Location across from Smith College was convenient for some guests. Cons: the rooms are cold and you can hear easily from each room. The fixtures and doors are in need of repair or replacement. The C suites C1/C2 offered privacy and additional amenities. Some rooms you enter from the outside on the ground floor.

This is a comfortable, quiet basic, motel-style place that has been renovated. I booked a "deluxe" room, but there was nothing special about it except it was large. No coffee in the room, basic bathroom, etc. Not worth the splurge. The continental breakfast was decent and the staff is very friendly. It's a perfectly nice place to stay, but don't expect it to be more than that.

Cute Dutch colonial-style hotel within easy walking distance of Smith College. A bit farther to downtown Northampton, but still doable. The rooms were clean and looked recently updated. Reasonable prices - would stay here again.
