A little noisy, small bathrooms, check in was a little awkward. All was offset by the location and good food in the restaurant.

Needs updating from top to bottom- dining room, guest rooms, exercise room, the latter of which is so small three people in there were struggling to make room for each other. But very nice front desk staff.

The stately historical hotel is superbly maintained with warm welcoming foyers, outdoor gathering spaces and captures my memories of New England. It is only outdone by the genuine friendliness and professionalism of its staff. Loved it!

Beautiful old school classy hotel. Food in restaurant was high quality. Very clean. My only complaint would be that the walls are thin. Other than that, we had a lovely stay visiting Umass Amherst.

Lovely hotel in the center of Amherst. Rooms were large and nicely decorated. The hotel retains its antique charm but feels fresh and clean. We especially liked the bartenders in the restaurant.

We spent two nights at the Boltwood Inn, so we could explore Amherst. Our itinerary included a tour of the Emily Dickenson house, the Yiddish Book Center and the Eric Carle Museum. Recommend all three places, if you are passing through Amherst. Boltwood Inn is a historic building, so don’t go in expecting a modern hotel. We had two of the double queen rooms with the extra sitting area. The sitting area provide a quiet place to sit. Not long after check-in, we had to switch one of our rooms, because the heater wasn’t working. We were grateful they still had an identical room available. The lobby area was nice and had a cozy parlor room with a fireplace, books and board games. That place was also used for a special afternoon tea that you had to prebook. We did not attend the tea. We did dine in the restaurant, which seemed popular with the locals. We enjoyed our dinners, but breakfast service was slow and the food did not come out hot. I would search for another breakfast option, if I returned to Amherst.

The Inn at Boltwood is fabulous. I love the restaurant with the leather banquets and perfect lighting, terrific menu offering and delicious food. Our room is lux and dreamy! We will definitely be staying here while visiting Amherst over the next 4 years!
