Beautiful space, disappointing breakfast

Only reason for not getting full stars - the breakfast was extremely subpar even for continental. I've been to mid tier motels/hotels where the included continental is serve yourself hot food, waffle maker, etc. The options at this inn were minimal and not of great quality. It was also set up in a small area that was difficult to manage when other guests came in. I expected much better, especially when they have a full restaurant kitchen in house. This definitely needs to be improved, really not acceptable for this special of a location and the price to stay there. Almost makes me rate 3 stars. Otherwise, the place is beautiful. Our room was in the carriage home, second floor with cathedral ceilings and original exposed beams. It was huge, clean, and felt luxurious. Dinner at the in house restaurant was delicious, our server was great, and we had a perfect spot on the patio to watch the sunset over the lake. Would be appreciated if guests of the inn received even a 5% discount for meals considering most of the people that ate there were not actually staying at the inn.

Beautiful secret in Upstate NY

Just beautiful location. We actually stayed in the guest house. Our room had 20plus feet ceilings. The outdoor restaurant and bar is great. The pork chop special was to die for. We definitely want to come back.

Excellent

Bathroom was a little cramped and did not care for the sliding barn door which really didn't close, but other than that everything was great. Staff was friendly and very accommodating, restaurant was excellent. Definitely recommend.

Patrick, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Beautiful property with tons of character and charm. Dining at the Brewster was delicious but incredibly expensive. We treated it as a once in a lifetime experience, so we indulged. Our room was gorgeous, but the bathroom smelled of urine and the sink never ran hot water.
Richelle, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

We found the inn rather dirty. The rugs were worn and dirty. The wall paper was pealing off the bathroom wall and the room was not up to our expectations in light of the price which reflect a first rate hotel. Although the room was large it remained me more of a run of the mill interstate motel. I would never stay there again.
Richard, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

They say they do not allow use of my medication on the property. Having medicine on me that can leave a faint smell is no reason to accuse me of smoking in the building. They charged using my medication, in my car. Coming in smelling like it. But I need it for my epilepsy. They were careless and against ADA laws. Non-empathetic
Alex, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Too short and sweet would be the only way I can describe our stay at The Brewster Inn. When you walk in you are immediately greeted by the very friendly staff, who were willing to help with carrying our luggage up 3 flights of stairs to checking our room multiple times for a lost item that we found after returning home. The views from our 3rd story room offered a bird's eye view of the lake and surrounding landscape. A cozy love seat by our window would be a nice addition for couples on a romantic getaway. The bed was comfortable, the room was of adequate size, but the bathroom was quite small. There was only enough room for one person a change and prepare for an evening out. A large dressing mirror in the room would have been nice, however the large hallway mirrors as you left your room complimented us completely as we headed downstairs for a delicious meal in their well-appointed and tastefully decorated dining room. The Brewster Inn lent itself to a promise of marriage that was 42 years in the making. As he got down on bended knee to ask that I become his wife someday, nothing else mattered. The small bathroom and lack of mirrors were a small price to pay for a moment I have been waiting for since I was a young girl in love with this man. Jennifer, our waitress presented us with a delicious dessert upon hearing our good news. Thank you, Brewster Inn, for making our getaway/promise an unforgettable time in our lives. Future Mrs. to her Mr.

Peaceful serenity

Staying at the Brewster Inn makes me feel more like I’m staying at a rich relatives house lol The setting, is absolutely beautiful along the lake. The main house gives great character. I feel like there is one thousand stories to be told, when I look inside and the carriage house where I stayed is beautifully done with very spacious and quiet rooms.

6/10 Good

Understaffed. Breakfast not well-supplied. Missing tea bags, missing milk, no assistance, no place to sit, person vacuuming during breakfast.
felicity, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

We enjoyed Brester Inn's preserved style from early 1900's. Hotel's surrounding area was gorgeous including the lake side as well as beautiful parklike walkways. Rooms were large and very clean. Our room was cleaned very day. Morning breakfast included many different selections. Hotel's staff was very friendly and helpful. Restaurant and bar was very good. The only one thing we would ask for would be softer bed pillows. The pillows we had were very hard and too thick for comfortable sleep. We would recomment Brewster Inn to our friends.
