This was probably my most favorite stay of all time! The property was beautiful, inviting, comfy, cozy, and quiet. The heated outdoor pool and hot tub were great places to relax. I will highly recommend this property and will likely be back for another stay!

10/10 Exceptional

Absolutely lovely. Bed was super comfortable, staff was friendly and helpful, lots of places to sit and relax. Easy walk to restaurants and across the street from the MOCA. Nice breakfast and you can even get a drink and a snack in the evening if you want. The sauna, whirlpool and heated pool at the end of October we a pleasant surprise.

10/10 Exceptional

We had a great stay. The breakfast buffet was outstanding. And the staff couldn’t have been more helpful and accommodating. The hotel blends just the right mixture of “old” with all modern conveniences and the grounds are lovely. Our room didn’t lend itself to one person watching TV if the other person wanted to do something else - it was a bit small for that.

I have stayed at Porches for many years. The pool and hot tub and various meeting and hang-out spaces make it an easy place to spend time. The landscaping is particularly good, which I wouldn't normally mention except that the plantings make it so pleasant to walk around the hotel. The rooms are always super clean and well appointed. Easy drive to Williamstown and of course across the street from MassMOCA. Great breakfasts!
David, 1-night trip

The accomodations maintained their historical era. It had a 1940s decor. The buildings had been individual apartment buildings that were connected together in an interesting yet appealing plan. The staff were extremely nice and welcoming.

Francois, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Porches Inn. We both grew up in the area and it’s wonderful to see these Victorian row houses with new lives. Our room was very comfortable and clean and the decor unique, tasteful and respectfully done. Loved rocking in the chairs on the porch each night and looking at the lit windows of the old Sprague plant (now MASS MoCA) where my dad and grandfathers once worked. Breakfasts were great, staff very friendly and helpful. Overall, an A experience at The Porches!

Happy Stay at The Porches

When it comes to rooms, we are typically a “you get what you get” couple. Meaning-we take the room that we are assigned. The Porches proved to be the exception. After returning to the front desk because our room was too close to the road in front of the property, we were offered another room in a more quiet area. The front desk greeter and Manager were very accommodating which we appreciated. The decor of the hotel is what might be described as “shabby chic”. No complaints other than some of the “vintage” furnishings seemed more like Goodwill than flea market or antique store acquisitions. The room was fine, mattress was medium firm and the pillows were fluffy. Good thermostat for regulating temperature and extremely quiet HVAC system. Hot water came out quickly from the shower head and nice touch with the Porches custom bathrobes. Breakfast was very nice - Bagels, cream cheese, smoked salmon, locally produced yogurt, Vermont cheese, freshly cooked scrambled eggs, roasted potatoes, etc. You get the picture. The hot tub was very pleasant and a nice way to meet fellow travelers. Although we didn’t go into the pool, it looked very clean. A nice getaway in a lovely area.
