The door did not lock or have a safety latch and my 3 year old son was able to run out of the room at random. The first time realizing this, i broke my foot chasing home down the hall. I was refused another room for safety concerns and eventually used heavy furniture to block the door. There were cracks in the walls, the double rooms and bathrooms were very tiny. There is no dining or breakfast offered. And the pool/beach that was featured was filled in with concrete. I paid extra for the double queen deluxe suite and was downgraded due to lack of room available. I was charged $20 for a cot resulting in my overall total for my stay of about $200. I also had mystery charges for things i had not requested for my room.

Sturbridge host? No thank you.

This was marketed as the “executive suite” when I got there they said I have the “mini suite” There was no balcony, the “mini suite” was just a large king bed with a couch and two TVs. I said again that I was “excited to see what the executive suite was.” But, they just looked confused and said I booked the mini suite. I showed them my reservation, and then they gave me my room keys. The hotel is very old, not up to date with many of the hotels I usually stay in. I will most likely be staying elsewhere each year when I make a business trip to Sturbridge. I’m mostly disappointed that I spent extra money on a “executive suite” only to get a slightly larger king size room. No microwave, no fridge, and the faint smell of an old building. 4/10. Wouldn’t stay again.

It would have been perfect had there been a good cup of coffee some where in the hotel. Not the little ones in the room with powdered creamer or the one in the call where u had to pay for the pod. But a good cup of fresh coffee. Next time I will have to bring my own pot coffee and creamer.. and a cup

Not Impressed.

I really wanted to like this hotel. It has so much potential. This place is so run down and outdated, it's sad. The young lady who checked us in was very pleasant. She was definitely the best part of our stay. Our first room was disgusting. The hallway to the room smelled like mold/mildew. The room itself was very outdated and faced what looked like a parking lot for abandoned vehicles. Lamp broken, door lock broken. Smelled terrible. Requested a different room. Same lady put us in a different room. Still very pleasant and willing to change our room. New room...not much different than our first room. Hallway didn't stink like the first but it was very cold. Beds (boxspring/mattresses) were very old, stained and torn. Due to other reviews, I did check for bed bugs. Luckly none were found. One corner of the room smelled very strong of cat/dog urine. Must be a "pet friendly" room. Hot water for shower lasted about 5 minutes into it. NO FRIDGE OR MICROWAVE. They are available but you have to request them and they cost $10 extra a night. Parking lot was not cleared after previous snow storm which made parking and accessing hotel next to impossible. NO HOT TUB which was very disappointing. Long story short. I would NEVER stay here again.

Way past its prime

My group of 3 came to town for a gaming convention hosted at the hotel. The staff was nice, but that’s as far as it goes. Room wise our room had no fridge, and couldn’t get one when asked. Breakfast was advertised… no breakfast was available. Pool and hot tub advertised, pool was cold and hot tub non existent. My wife came specifically for the hot tub and was disappointed for the entire trip. Fitness room has one working treadmill, game room is on a timer and shuts down at like 7pm. All restaurants and bars inside were closed for our stay until another group came in, then they opened for a limited time. Our rooms shower was broken and sprayed water all over the ceiling, beds uncomfortable. Kurieg in the lobby area but you have to purchase pods from a vending machine. Overall 4 nights was $700+ and I feel like for what we paid it should have had something more. Thankful for the happy faces we saw during the convention but other than that I won’t be back and wish I could have gotten a refund or stayed somewhere else. The hotel looks like it once was an amazing hotel but the years haven’t been good to the place. Needs a significant overhaul in maintenance and hospitality to get it back to what its former glory might have been.

Swing swing

We stayed two nights. The first room we were in had no heat. Was blowing cold air out of a ceiling vent. But the service desk was so nice and accommodating and switched our room without a problem. Our second room had a big blob of poop on the outside of the bowl. And a dirty sink. But there was heat. There was a swinger event happening by the pool the entire time where our room was so that was interesting. We went to go to the convention room and the swinger event was having a full a hotel catered meal by the pool, with a buffet line, as we walked through the staff yelled at me and told us to go around, but theres not another way around from what I saw. So I kept walking. And in my opinion I was a guest of the hotel like anyone else and was unaware of a full event happening in the public pool area. Loud music doesn't bother me but there was a full band playing both nights right outside our pool side room that we paid extra for. If this hotel was 100$ or less I wouldn’t expect to much but at 250$ a night it was very steep for all that happening.

I had stayed there 35 years ago. I was surprised the price was so low when I booked it when we arrived and saw that nothing had been maintained or updated since my last visit. It was so bad it was comical. I was chicken to go in the pool because it was so dark in that area at night & they had just had a two day event that resulted in obvious cleanliness issues. Our room was quite clean with comfortable bedding & linens. The staff that we met were very nice & helpful. Heard that new owners are planning to fix it and we are cheering them on because the location is fabulous and the potential is great.
