Bennington Old First Congregational Church Hotels

"Beautiful historic hotel. Loved the heated outdoor pool for an early morning swim. Good early morning coffee and delicious breakfast too. And they upgraded me to a suite! Couldn't be happier with my stay. "

"This is the quintessential new england inn. Comfortable, well appointed, clean, and inviting. The proximity to Williams could not be better. We will stay here the next time we are at MassMOCA for an event. The restaurant serves excellent food and has the equivalent friendly service."

"Room was clean and comfortable, but, there was an odor I didn’t like. We opened the windows to try and clear it, after that I think we just got used to it."

"Rooms were awesome, very clean, comfortable beds, and great artwork and design in the room. A truly deep bathtub too! Definitely the place to stay in the Bennington area!"

"Only stayed here for about 12 hrs. Very pleasant professional front desk. Clean room. "

"Yes, spotless room, courteous staff"

"Reception was great, lovely beds (most important to me), great location, this place is excellent."

"The house is a beautiful New England structure with a variety of rooms to choose from. Our room, the Gold room was luxurious and spacious with great light during the day. The "private bath" is across the hall requiring proper dress to exit the room and enter the bathroom. It's a small point but different nonetheless than in in-room bath. The heating function was a bit tricky since it is an older hot water heat register that takes some time to heat up or down so you need to be mindful of time needed to adjust the room heat. A couple of notes for the management (I was in the hotel business for 20 years) relate to the living room/parlor furnishings. There is an enormouse floral arrangement in the center of the room between the seating arrangements that obstructs the view of the front window. I would suggest moving it to a corner of the room to allow other guests to enjoy the view to the outside and adding a second table and chairs to take advantage of the room and view. Other guests are required to sit in the restaurant away from the living room area and it felt isolated. Staff is casually under dressed for the surroundings of the inn. I would spruce them up a bit. The receptionist did not provide a greeting when we arrived and it felt we weren't welcomed adequately. Overall, however, it's a beautiful place to stay and just needs a little more attention to the guest experience. I'm happy to talk with anyone should they desire."

"Everything was beautiful. Room was clean. Very spacious. Comfortable. Staff was kind. Location. Location. Location. Will recommend. And be back again. Thank you."
