This place is a real gem in the heart of the Berkshires. It is about a 7 minute walk to Mass MOCA and about a 10 minute walk to their "downtown" area with shops and restaurants. It is about a 30 minute drive to Mount Greylock, the highest point in Massachusetts. The rooms are very spacious and very clean and each room has a porch you can enjoy. One thing to note is that there did not seem to be elevators for getting to the second floor, so dragging luggage up and down was kind of a pain. Very helpful and friendly staff, great breakfast included with your stay, and actually good coffee. 10/10, would stay again.

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.
