great hotel

Great choice of hotel for a base around lakes region

Lovely, very high end hotel set in stunning surroundings. Staff are very attentive and friendly. Room was well appointed, comfortable and quiet. Great bed. Food was lovely (best chowder in NE!). Highly recommend this oasis of quality and comfort.

Lovely. Highly recommended

Excellent hotel,spotless everywhere, staff very friendly and very helpful, will even book tickets for you for example to the Cog Railway at Mount Washington which is fantastic, wrap up warm it was freezing at the top. Breakfast was cereals, muffins, bagels, yohurts, fruit etc., fresh and plentiful. No where to eat out on site but you have kitchen area if you want to cook for yourselves or very good restaurants about 3/4 miles away but we chose to have a take away delivered to the hotel on 2...

Fantastic. We have been travelling for the last 10 days and only use the Hilton group as we are diamond members and I have remained loyal to the group. We have found the Hilton hotels to be shabby nothing special and expensive. We decided to change to try this hotel and WOW …. It is fantastic. It is modern clean and has great facilities in the room including real,glasses and mugs …not paper cups which we have had over the last week. I wish they had a chain for this hotel as I would have...

The setting overlooking the lake was beautiful, everyone working in the Inn was very friendly and helpful and the dogs were great fun too! Lake view rooms are superb. So big and furnished well too. Exceptionally clean and amenities for tea and coffee really good too

Mark and Lyn were somewhat surprised to find we had arrived in Meredith by bus! Not to be recommended. Taxied up to their charming hotel. Breakfast was absolutely delicious, homemade granola, yoghurt and raspberry couli, followed by poached pears and Mark's soda bread. Lyn took us down to the lake for a trip and collected us in the afternoon. They could not have been kinder or more concerned that we enjoyed our stay. We loved it.

Large rooms that were spotlessly clean. Average breakfast.

One of the best Bed and Breakfasts we have stayed in over the years. Hosts Nick and Amy made us very welcome and we would recommend to anyone thinking of booking. Beautiful house and immaculate. Restaurants within walking distance in this lovely town. Pity we could not have stayed longer.

I don't usually review, but the Ballard was such a lovely experience! It's a beautiful, historic inn, and our room was comfortable, nicely furnished, and spotless. There are a couple of comfortable sitting rooms for the guests to use, and the view across the trees down to a lake from the veranda was lovely. Breakfast was delicious, including a fresh home-baked sweet loaf every day, and there were the cookies every afternoon. Brian and Lynn could not have been more friendly, welcoming and...

This was a lovely property with interesting history. The new owner was very welcoming and helpful. The room was spacious and had everything we needed. Breakfast was fantastic. Great location for seeing New England in the fall, & easy parking.

Room was great. Staff were lovely. Laundry room is out of order but we were given no prior notice.

Sadly only able to stay 1 night due to travel plans, but very clean hotel, excellent room and facilities, breakfast good, restaurant within walking distance, swimming pool and jacuzzi indoor. Staff very pleasant and helpful, would definitely return if in the area.

A fantastic family owned and run Inn with a brilliant welcome. These people really care and are passionate about the guest experience. A beautiful historic property with a lovely warm ambience. Comfortable rooms, spotlessly clean and in the perfect spot for exploring the squam lake region and the northern NH scenic trails. A lot of sustainable practice and locally sourced ingredients adds to the experience.

The staff friendly and helpful. I plan to come back and stay for longer
