Homemade chocolate chip cookies, check! Fireplace, check! Bottomless Sherry bottle, check! Cozy/clean room, check! Spacious jacuzzi, check! Must give mention to the stellar French Toast and amazing Blueberry Buckle. We couldn't have picked a better place to stay in the Berkshires. Thank you Denise, for making our stay a pleasant one! We'll definitely be back again!	5.0	No Exist
My Daughter and I were pleasantly surprised to arrive at The Garden Gables Inn to find Denise waiting up for us with warm homemade cookies, a wood fire burning and a cozy rooms to just "hang out" in, a clean darling bedroom with a FABULOUS comfie bed. Then we awoke to a WONDERFUL BIG DELICIOUS breakfast cooked by Denise and her darling staff. But SHHHHHHHH don't tell everyone, or we'll never be able to get a reservation. It was a delightful surprise!	5.0	No Exist
Spent a weekend getaway here with my wife. Super cozy room (16, in the cabins) with a delightful fireplace. Perfectly relaxing. The town of Lenox is very cute and a short easy walk, another perk. Afternoon sherry in the main house was awesome. Breakfasts were great, dinner was average--not as amazing as we expected based on other reviews. Went to Alta the night before and THAT was well worth it. Did not take advantage of the pool (closed for winter) but I am sure it is great. Overall, would definitely stay here again.	5.0	No Exist
Stayed for a night at the Garden Gables in Lenox. Just a really nice inn with a friendly and hospitable innkeeper. Upon check-in, my wife and I were given a tour of the premises, we were told we could light a fire in either of the two fireplaces and enjoy sherry in the sherry room...all hotels should have a sherry room. I have a gluten allergy, and mentioned this when making the reservation - no problem. The innkeeper even prepared some gluten free brownies for me. They were easily the best brownies I've ever had. Breakfast was delicious. Both a la carte options and made to order options. Overall this was an excellent experience and I look forward to staying there again. only negative: the bathroom (as warned in the room description) was a little small.	5.0	No Exist
Our stay ay the Garden Gables Inn couldn't have been better. The Inn is a delight filled with comfort, hospitality and comfort. The staff from John (the owner) to Denise the inkeeper & chef and staff made us feel welcome and comfortable from the minute we arrived. The room was great. The food was a delight and we felt like we belonged here as if was our getaway home. John keep cooking those chocolate chip cookies - they were the best. We'll be back.	5.0	No Exist
My Partner and I just stayed two nights and loved the moon lit hike they offer at there winery We enjoyed the inn very much and thought Denise was so hospitable and a fantastic chef! What I really love to is how happy and friendly Julie was when meeting us. She made us feel special at the winery and appreciated that we stayed at her inn. Thank you!	5.0	No Exist
The reviews for this Inn rate it the best for a reason. We visiited just after the foliage season making for a much needed quiet break from Boston prior to preparing for the holidays. Being able to walk to the local shops and out for dinner was nice and the Inn is perfectly located in-order to make short drives to other destinations in the area as well. Our room had charming furnishings with modern upgrades that you would expect at this type of property. Denise the Inn Keeper was very kind, attentive and assisted with area attractions which was also helpful as this was our first stay in the Berkshires. A great stay at a great property that has interesting history. Don't forget to make the 15 minute drive to the orchard/winery that is held by the same ownership!	5.0	No Exist
My husband and I spent 3 nights here. We were pleasantly surprised to be one of 2 couples there. Basically, we had the place to ourselves. Our room, 14, was great with a king bed and balcony as well as a fireplace. We were warmly welcomed by the Innkeeper, Denise. The placed was beautifully decorated for christmas. We took full advantage of the free hiking and wine tasting at the Hilltop Orchards/Furnace Brook Winery owned by the Inn. The breakfast was amazing and made to order. They can handle any and all food issues and asked many times if all needs were being met. We did not try the spa treatments but the treatment room looked nice. There is free Wi-Fi and free parking. Lenox center is only a few minutes walk. we would definitely go back. There is always free…	5.0	No Exist
My husband and I were celebrating our first wedding anniversary, and were in need of "us" time I feared that an B&B wouldn't allow the privacy we desperately needed, and our city life couldn't provide. Denise the Inn keeper was a perfect mix for concierge and Lennox expert with and extra side of being an amazing chef. Our tough lives melted in her daily chocolate chip cookies, and wonderfully made breakfast feast hearts. We adored every moment of our stay and I was so thankful she was so incredibly knowledgeable about GLUTEN FREE eaters that I felt safe and taken care of. She even sent me a wonderful recipe for flour brownies. I couldn't believe the service and how comfortable we were. Ten stars!	5.0	No Exist
My husband and I stayed at the Inn for a 3 day weekend getaway and we were more than pleased, the Inn was beautiful!. The Inn is in a great location so we were able to walk a short distance to the quaint little shops in town. We were greeted by Denise who we later discovered was a great chef. She was more than accommodating with our needs and always willing to help. She immediately made us aware of all the happenings around town, such as the Christmas Caroling, which was lovely. Unfortunately, we were not able to make dinner Saturday night at the Inn but after eating Denise's outrageous breakfasts, we know we missed a good thing. We had amazing apple strudel french toast, omelets and those sticky buns, yummy! We stayed in #15, one of the larger rooms, and it was very warm and…	5.0	No Exist
We stayed for two nights in Room 3 with the gas fireplace and renovated bath with huge whirlpool tub. For the 1st night we were only 1 of 2 couples staying and the 2nd night, we had the place to ourselves. Two spacious, homey living rooms with wood burning fires, delicious gourmet breakfasts (best muffins we have ever eaten), and great hospitality by Denise (chef and inn manager?) who you would never know she'd only been working there for a month. We also scheduled ourselves fabulous 80-minute massages in the private in-house treatment room. What a treat! Fantastic and romantic get-away, yet felt so comfortable and "at-home.". Also, very convenient location and short walk to Church Street restaurants and shops. Short drive to Hilltop Winery and Orchard where we had…	5.0	No Exist
Went for a night away with my husband and another couple. We were greeted pleasantly, given a tour of the Inn and was made to feel right at home. Our room was extremely comfortable and we loved the fireplace. Our friends stayed in a suite which was lovely as well with a nice sitting room with a fireplace, and 2 bedrooms. The breakfast was fresh and hot and very good. The 2 Lindt chocolates on our bed when we arrived was a nice touch. We would not hesitate to stay again. A beautiful and friendly place to stay.	5.0	No Exist
Only stayed one night as a stopover from Canada to Connecticut and loved it! John and staff were extremely hospitable. Our room was very clean and the bed was extremely comfortable. We enjoyed our time in Sherry room talking with the other guests over a glass of wine. It's a very short walk to town and back after having a healthy meal a Nudel. The breakfast is fantastic. Next time we plan on skipping CT and staying for much longer!	5.0	No Exist
I stayed at the Garden Gables Inn for 3 nights last week in a spacious, yet cozy room. With your stay, you get lovely inn keepers, an excellent breakfast, as well as red carpet treatment to their orchard & winery. After walking to main shops easily, I would kick back in the Sherry Room to enjoy a glass of dry sherry as if sitting in my living room. I am looking forward to my return to the Berkshires so I can come back to Lenox & stay at the Garden Gables Inn!	5.0	No Exist
I just returned from a three day stay at the Garden Gables Inn. From the tasteful decor, to the comfortable rooms, the Inn is full of charm and warmth. Coveniently located a walking distance from Lenox, yet set back from the road, it is ideally located. Breakfast was sensational (included), and the service was impeccable. I highly recommend it!	5.0	No Exist
We just completed a three and a half week tour of the Northeastern United States, which included three nights at the Garden Gables Inn. While it is a lovely inn with good service, breakfast, and common areas, I would suggest being very selective in the room chosen. We were traveling with another couple and I had booked the rooms, keeping them the same price for both of us. We were shown our friends room, #1, which was large, roomy, 2 twins made into a king bed, had a sitting area with two chairs and corner windows which provided lots of light. Then, we were shown our room, #4, which was the same price as room #1, but almost half the size, much smaller, no sitting area, barely enough room for two suitcases, a queen bed, and located over an area where an exhaust fan came on…	4.0	No Exist
John and Peggy run the most amazing Inn and it was great to be able to stay there. The attention to detail, the warm welcome, the breakfast - simply fantastic. We only got to stay one night but we will be back. Thank you tripadvisor a great #1 in Lenox. If you are going anywhere near Lenox in New England - dont miss the chance to stay here!	5.0	No Exist
I've come to depend on Trip Adviser when contemplating travel plans, and once again, I wasn't disappointed. This is a top notch B&B, where attention to detail reveals itself in many different ways. First, I have to say that booking our stay with a young lady named Andrea was an absolute pleasure. She was patient, friendly, and offered what turned out to be great advice regarding our room choice. She is a lovely person and an asset to the establishment. Next, I must say that I was very pleasantly surprised when changing my arrival date at almost the last second how understanding and accomodating both the owner and Andrea were. Regarding the inn itself, my wife and I are still talking about the room - great 4 poster king sized bed, with fine linens, a working fireplace we really…	5.0	No Exist
Our three night stay was terrific. Both John and Peggy were wonderful hosts. They were very welcoming and provided great recommendations for local hiking, shopping and restaurants. The inn is absolutely beautiful and very well kept. Our room was spacious and comfortable and we really enjoyed the working fireplace. The breakfast (included) is wonderful. The breakfast chef makes the best stuffed french toast and omlettes. Both highly recommended. For once, my wife and I left an Inn and had nothing negative to say. We will be back again next year and look forward to drinking wine by the fire place, enjoying a good book and just relaxing.	5.0	No Exist
My husband and I spent one night here on a ten day trip of the Boston and Cape Cod area. We were warmly greeted by the innkeeper, Peggy and introduced to her husband, John. Being from the west, the inn was precisely what I anticipated during the fall season at the Berkshires. The room was lovely with a small deck perfect for enjoying a glass of wine and admiring the beautiful changing fall colors. The inn is just a few blocks walk to the center of Lenox where there were numerous choices of restaurants for dinner. John sent us off the following morning full from a delicious omlet breakfast. We would definitely return!	5.0	No Exist
Our trip back to my "home town" was made memorable by our stay at the Inn and the friendly welcoming feeling Peggy and John provided the moment we arrived.

Had a wonderful stay at this lovely Inn over Columbus Day week-end. The rooms are small and quaint and have all the ammenities you need. Great breakfast with choice of dinning room and sweet wicker sunroom which we chose to eat in. The grounds are beautiful and very restful. The staff was so helpful with great suggestions for places to eat and things to do. We loved their suggestion of Alta's Restaurant in Lenox. Thanks. We can't wait to come back to Garden Gables Inn.

We stayed at Garden Gables Inn this past weekend (10/14 - 10/17) and found the inn to be immaculate. Our room was one of the smaller rooms, but it was extremely clean and comfortable. The amenities provided were outstanding - the breakfast is superb! The staff is extremely efficient and helpful. Not too pushy and there when you need them. I would recommend this to anyone that is interested in staying in the area. We plan on staying in one of the cottages next time we are in the area!	5.0	No Exist
We had an excellent stay at the Garden Gables Inn. Key features were: The room was very comfortable, a good size and the log fire was a welcome feature Breakfast was outstanding and significantly better than other inns where breakfast is often cereal and muffins. Both in quality and quantity it matched and exceeded breakfast in 5* hotels. Location was perfect, both in relation to the Berkshires where journeys to north and south were easy, and in relation to the town where it was an easy walk to restaurants I would also mention very welcoming staff particularly as there had been a power cut in the region. The staff could not do enough to ensure we were provided with back up lighting.	5.0	No Exist

Thank you Garden Gables for a wonderful stay! We spent two nights at Garden Gables for the beginning of our honeymoon and couldn't have been given a more pleasant stay. Peggy and John were so welcoming and accommodating and the amenities there made us feel completely pampered. We enjoyed the fresh baked cookies, tea, sherry and need I mention the amazing home cooked breakfast on the glassed in porch? The room was beautiful - clean and carefully maintained and cozy with a fire in the fireplace. We also took advantage of the spa offerings and enjoyed wonderful massages. The location was perfect - beautiful manicured grounds that made you feel like you were in the country, but within walking distance to Lenox for a nice dinner out.

We recently stayed at Garden Gables for three nights. Rooms were clean, comfortable, and quiet. Morning breakfast was excellent. The "personality" stems from the innkeepers, John and Peggy, who were most friendly and attentive to every need. This was a first rate experience in a very nice part of the world.	5.0	No Exist
This is a honest posting from a NYC working girl. I truly enjoyed my time here and want to make sure I do my part to help bring more business the folks at Garden Gables because they deserve it and I know you will enjoy it! So here's my review..... I have nothing but great things to say about Garden Gables. It's quaint, comfortable, and cozy. It has all the appeals of a New England B&B (24 hr. dry and cream sherry room, apples from the local orchard, fabulous in-keepers) with modern amenities (password free wireless, 24 hr computer usage, complimentary NY Times). They even have an outdoor heated pool that they close in September. It's perfectly located just a short stroll from "downtown" Lenox. The breakfast spread was delish (bacon, ham, made-to-order omelet, fruit,…	5.0	No Exist
One of our family members picked this Inn as the perfect place for our first family reunion in MANY years. They were so RIGHT! We took over the whole Inn for the weekend ( aprox 30 of us for meals) . The choices and preparation of all our meals could not have been better. The service and attention to detail was superb. The town had plenty to offer for our varied interests, the casual atmosphere made for easy conversations in the well furnished and comfortable main living rooms. The beds were comfortable and bathrooms clean with the right soaps and lotions for the weekend. On top of all this the weather behaved beautifully. We would definately consider recommending the Green Gables Inn to anyone!	5.0	No Exist
We had the wettest 3 day stay, which, of course, had nothing to do with the inn. That said, inside was warm, hospitable, and comfortable. We even made use of the inns' umbrelllas. the public rooms invite you to enjoy their comforts and good taste - even to cookies, apples (from their own trees), coffee and tea. The staff are friendly and helpful to just the right extent. Breakfast - perfect. Our room was comfortable and quiet. I must find something which could be improved! It's time to have glass doors on the shower. WE SHALL HAPPILY RETURN FOR A SUNNIER VISIT.	4.0	No Exist
We had a wonderful Labor Day weekend at the Garden Gables Inn and look forward to our next visit! Peggy was a lovely hostess, the whole staff was very helpful, the building was historic and charming, and breakfast was AMAZING!!!! Only possible improvements might be a better mattress (too soft and saggy in the middle) and a small in-room fridge for wine/cheese. All around great!!! -elizabeth and steven.	4.0	No Exist
This was my gift to my daughter for her 40th Bday. I could not have picked a better place to stay. The Inn is centrally located but very private. The staff were so helpful, giving us tips and directions. We loved the breakfast choices. Both my daughter and I said these were the best omelets and pancakes we had ever had...and we are breakfast lovers! Each night, we would sit downstairs, have tea and cookies and visit with other guests.	5.0	No Exist
On our first trip to the Berkshires we were lucky enough to have chosen Garden Gables Inn. Everything was perfect except the breakfast was beyond that.

We had a most enjoyable stay here last week. The grounds were beautiful, the huge pool was a perfect ending to a day of exploring the area, and our room was comfy and attractive. Being able to walk into town for all the great shops and restaurants was an added plus. Delicious cooked breakfasts on the sun porch were a treat, as well as the afternoon sherry (and fresh-baked cookies) in the living room. The staff were all friendly and helpful. Best of all were the innkeepers:John and Peggy made us feel right at home and offered lots of good suggestions for things to do in the area.	5.0	No Exist
Extraordinary service, lovely Inn Keepers and exceptional staff! Our Room, #15 was immaculate, well appointed and the bed was very comfortable. It is large with lots of storage, which we needed, because we stayed 8 nights and it included a sitting area which opened to the balcony with a view of the back yard. The housekeeping staff went well above and beyond my expectations. I was experiencing a slight skin irritation after bathing and using the bathrobes provided. My husband did NOT have this problem. Regardless, the staff provided me with specially washed towels and robes and I was completely fine the rest of the stay. Breakfasts were a highlight which we looked forward to each morning. It is served in two charming locations, the dining room or enclosed sun porch. …	5.0	No Exist
We recently stayed at this inn on a last-minute visit. Overall, it was a very nice inn, with one caveat. The location is pretty much ideal, just a few blocks from many restaurants and shops in Lenox. At the same time, it is away from the street and very peaceful and quiet. The grounds are beautiful, with flowers and lovely trees. And the inn itself is very well kept - very cozy. The common rooms are very nicely appointed. The pool also looked very inviting, although we didn't have a chance to check it out. The innkeepers were wonderful. Both were extremely friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. We felt at home right away. The breakfast was tasty and served in a lovely breakfast room. And the free availability of excellent cookies and tea was very nice for snacking. The one…	4.0	No Exist

We stayed at the Garden Gables Inn to celebrate my mother's birthday. It could not have been more perfect. The inn and grounds are beautiful. My husband especially enjoyed his daily swim in the large, inviting (and heated) pool. The rooms are charming, the staff is friendly and attentive, and the breakfast is one of the best we've had at a B&B. Although it's an easy, one-block walk to all the great shops and restaurants in downtown Lenox, when you're at the inn you'll feel like you're a world away.	5.0	No Exist
It was elegant and yet down to earth experience. The rooms were appointed beautifully with character from another time period. The breakfast was very good with made to order hot entrees.

We discovered the Garden Gables about ten years ago, and have been returning every year. The location is superb, about 1 block from “downtown” Lenox, but set far enough off the road to produce a quiet, country-like atmosphere. The Vittori family and their staff always make us feel welcome. Their cook-to-order breakfast and breakfast buffet provide a great start to the day. By the time you head back to your room after breakfast, your room has been cleaned and made-up. Dinner in the Lenox restaurants can be noisy and rushed on Tanglewood nights. This year we had Saturday evening dinner at Garden Gables, and it provided a needed alternative to the often noisy and crowded places in Town. While the selection was somewhat limited (four main courses), the food was well…	5.0	No Exist

Never having seen it in person I took a chance on Garden Gables Inn based on excellent reviews and was not disappointed. The grounds are beautiful, bursting with lovely and colorful summer blossoms. There are lounge chairs scattered throughout the property as well as a large pool. The common areas of the Inn are very inviting and charmingly decorated as well as spacious offering lemonade, homemade cookies and sherry at any time of day you should desire. The room we stayed in was a suite. It was very clean, well laid out. There was ample drawer and closet space. There were separate air conditioning units in each room of the suite so that everyone could adjust it to their own comfort level. There was also good lighting (sounds silly, but I have stayed in some places where…	5.0	No Exist
The Berkshires is one of our favorite summer destinations, and Garden Gables Inn is our favorite place to stay. We have stayed at many other inns over the years, but Garden Gables has them all beat. The location is wonderful - - private and secluded but close to Tanglewood and walking distance to Lenox. The rooms are beautiful and charming, but still have modern amenities such as air conditioning and TV. The inn also has a lovely in-ground pool for relaxing after a long day of hiking or cultural events. Best of all, innkeepers Peggy and John go out of their way to make their guests comfortable. The breakfast is sumptious, and the special touches, such as home-baked chocolate chip cookies, etc., really add to the whole feeling. It is a bit pricey but, like us, most guests…	5.0	No Exist

After staying at another nearby Inn in Lenox for more years than I can count, we decided to make a change. Looks like we made the right choice as the Garden Gable Inn was not only really charming & lovely, it was close to everything in Lenox. The service was excellent, the breakfast amazing and the facilities were very clean. They even served fresh baked cookies, tea and coffee anytime you had the urge + complimentary sherry & peanuts in the casual living room. Spa treatments were available but I did not partake this time. For me as a Realtor and traveler , the fact that the Inn had free use of a computer readily available was perfect. I would definitely recommend the Garden Gable Inn and can't wait to go back with my husband. John Vittori was a wonderful host and the…	5.0	No Exist

Great location, immaculate, well-appointed public and private rooms, well-trained and helpful staff, lovely grounds, and a recently-relined, heated outdoor pool. Chocolate chip cookies, apples, and sherry always on hand. Have increased our stay from three to six days next year. What makes these innkeepers special? Aside from running a tight ship, when you arrive, you feel like you're visiting relatives who have really been looking forward to seeing you.	5.0	No Exist
In a town of pretty country inns and B&Bs, this has to be as good as it gets. The rooms are large, attractively decorated, and very clean. The property is spacious and beautifully landscaped, and it is one of the few B&Bs with a large, heated pool. The innkeepers are friendly and helpful. The breakfasts are great. The location couldn't be better--it is within a block of the historic downtown area. Tanglewood and other cultural attractions are a short drive away. It is pricey, but no more so than properties of comparable or lesser quality; and it is worth it.	5.0	No Exist

My friends and I spent a nice long weekend here in May for a "girls get-away". The Inn lived up to all of our expectations, and then some. Just driving up the long driveway and seeing the beautiful Inn hidden behind the trees - we knew we were going to love it. The Innkeepers (Peggy & John) are right at home doing what they love to do - and it shows. Not only are they excellent hosts, but they also cook a mean made-to-order omelet. Breakfast was always a great start to our day - with Peggy giving us some tips on places to go and things to do. The place was very clean; the beds were comfy; and the room was very nicely decorated.

We just returned from several days in Lenox, Mass. This is the second time staying at this bed and breakfast. This B&B has excellent reviews for good reason. First, the rooms are comfortable and cozy - including a flat screen tv with built in dvd player, a fireplace, and a sitting area. As for the breakfasts, there is good variety - both a selection to order from and a buffet. There are sitting rooms on the main floor that are very inviting, with quality furniture. The proprietors are very friendly, are clearly experienced at running the B&B, and clearly enjoy what they do. They have cookies and fruit available during the day which is a nice touch.

The Garden Gables Inn is a true gem. The property is well maintained with pretty flowers and rich green lawns. The common areas are comfortable and inviting – listen to lovely music in the living area while sipping Sherry or using the Inn’s guest laptop. In this area, there is also lots of information about the Berkshires and interesting activities and sites to see in the area. My friends and I visited Edith Wharton’s home (The Mount) and the Norman Rockwell Museum. We also went horseback riding and had several delicious meals at restaurants in Lenox. We stayed in the Hilltop Orchards Suite – Room 12. In the late afternoons, we enjoyed the sun on our private little terrace.

Two of our latest reviews come from four such gals - Karen and Carol (sisters) and Mary and Carol.

From the moment we drove up the leafy green driveway, we thoroughly enjoyed the peace and charm of Garden Gables. The Inn is beautifully nestled amongst a serene woodland garden, and is as spick and span in every detail as you could possibly want. John and Peggy greeted us on arrival and immediately we felt extremely welcome. Our bedroom (rm 15), complete with four poster, was beautifully furnished and accommodated all of our luggage and shopping with ease, and ample sitting room. The bathroom had a crisp clean modern feel (no aging fixtures here) and I was particularly impressed with the Aveda products on offer- such a delight after a long journey.

My husband and I were looking for somewhere to spend a romantic long weekend last fall, and I stumbled upon this B&B online. It was a little more than a two-hour drive north of Manhattan. Because of its proximity to Tanglewood, the summer home of the Boston Symphony Orchestra and various other music festivals, the high season here is the summer. But, I highly recommend a visit in the fall as well. The foliage was absolutely incredible, and there is apple picking available nearby if you're interested in that sort of thing. It's also a great time to take advantage of the inn's lovely fireplaces. Our room (Room 14) had one situated in the corner as well as a small terrace, which makes a great spot for morning coffee.

It was a very nice place to spend our anniversary. We loved the room- it had a fireplace and small balcony. The bed was very comfortable. Bathroom was clean and updated. The grounds were nice- It rained a lot before we got there so it was a bit wet and muddy. The food was good. We had breakfast that was made fresh and served with a smile. The Inn keepers were very pleasant and helpful. They gave us great recommendations for dinner. The winery/apple orchard that is included was ok. Not much to see but we are not big wine drinkers and it wasn't apple season. The only complaint we have was the whole area seems a bit pricey. The town isn't that big and not a lot to see. We would recommend it but it's a not a cheap weekend away.	4.0	No Exist
My sister, two friends, and I visited the Berkshires for the very first and stayed 3 nights at the Garden Gables Inn. It was an absolutely fantastic experience! The accommodations were beautiful and quite comfortable, the grounds breathtaking, and the breakfast was simply delicious. And, the best part of our stay was meeting Peggy and John, the wonderful Innkeepers. Their attention to detail was spot on and their warmness made us feel right at home. I was actually so sad to leave but know that I will visit again soon. Thanks John and Peggy!	5.0	No Exist
My wife and i had a great time here.. stated in room 15 which was amazing and highly recommended. Nice grounds as well as helpful, pleasant and very friendly innkeepers.

The service was impeccable. We arrived late and our key was waiting for us. breakfast each morning was fantastic. Complimentary fresh baked cookies, beverages, cheese, crackers, and sherry; all to be enjoyed in a relaxing lounge with fireplace. Walking distance to area of restaurants in Lenox. Complimentary wine tasting at a local winery. Overall, an extremely relaxing and comfortable stay. Inn Keepers were wonderful and made us feel right at home.

My girlfriend and I stayed at the Garden Gables Inn for our anniversary in March. The Inn is literally a 2 minute walk to the center of Lenox Village, where all the shops/restaurants are located. It is set back from the road so there is a nice level of privacy, and there is plenty of parking for the guests. We stayed in the Room 10 (Furnace Brook Winery Suite), and loved it. John and Peggy are the innkeepers, and they are amazing. Friendly, accommodating, and really willing to go above and beyond. I 'm not sure which one cooks the breakfast, but it was probably some of the best breakfast food we've ever had. If you're going to visit the Berkshires, I'd highly recommend the Garden Gables Inn.	5.0	No Exist
My boyfriend planned a romantic long weekend, and Garden Gables provided the perfect setting between the snowshoeing and wine-tasting. We got engaged while hiking in the area, and came back to a cozy working fireplace and a bottle of champagne. Breakfast was delicious every morning, and all the complimentary touches really went a long way towards making every moment of our stay truly enjoyable and memorable.

After 15 years of B&B stays and varying levels of disappointment, I experienced three perfect days/nights at Garden Gables Inn. We were welcomed by innkeepers John and Peggy. Married 40 years, they relate as if on their first date and work flawlessly together. The aroma of a wood fire and fresh chocolate chip cookies set the atmosphere. John graciously responded to each of our needs as did Peggy’s wit, genuineness and knowledge of restaurants and events. We were in caring, capable hands. A walk able distance from Lenox, the Inn’s landscaping is meticulous, with ample parking. Interior décor is soothing and consistent with the inn’s history. Couches facilitate meeting guests, talking with friends or reading silently. Rooms are meticulously clean, with pillow-top beds, and…	5.0	No Exist

A friend and I recently spent 4 midweek days at Garden Gables while cross-country skiing at different ski centers in the Berkshires. I loved Garden Gables! Each of us had a comfortable, well-furnished and immaculate room with private bath. Breakfast was served in a large, light-filled dining room and included just about anything I might have wanted to eat. The inn's location in the center of Lenox meant easy access to restaurants and shops there as well as to nearby towns and the 3 ski centers we sampled. Best of all, Peggy and John are warm, gracious and knowledgeable hosts who added immeasurably to the pleasure of my trip. I hope I get to go back soon!	5.0	No Exist

My husband and I just had the most wonderful weekend getaway at the Garden Gables Inn. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed, relaxed and pampered. The inn is even more beautiful in person with well-appointed rooms. We enjoyed a glass of the complimentary sherry before going out to dinner at one of the many restaurants within walking distance. The next morning after a delicious, cooked-to-order breakfast, we went snowshoeing at the inn's orchard and winery, which is about a 15-minute drive away. The groomed trails through the orchard and woods, with mountain views all around, provided beautiful scenery. As guests of the inn, the trail fee was waived as was the fee for the wine tasting that we just had to try after snow shoeing, and were we glad we did. The wines…	5.0	No Exist
Inn is beautifully furnished and meticulously clean. Ambience is welcoming, sunny, cheerful. Our rooms had all the modern conveniences while maintaining their charm.

We decided to celebrate our first year together in Lenox so we could combine a day pass at Kripalu with the Norman Rockwell Museum and other fun activities. Garden Gables was the hightlight of the trip. Late at night when we turned in after a long drive, we were struck by the beautiful Colonial archetecture surrounded by snow. It sits on 5+ acres far enough off the main street to be somewhat tucked away, yet easily walkable to town center. The Inn itself has been beautifully updated by the Vittori family. As you walk in, you see a lovely handpainted mural of the surrounding countryside which John Vittori used to explain directions to their orchard and winery. Staying at the Inn you get free wine tasting and can snowshoe/crosscountry ski for no trail fees at the orchard. …	5.0	No Exist

My husband and I stayed at the Garden Gables Inn between Christmas and New Year's. It was the perfect getaway for us. We were looking for a b and b where we could relax in the room so the fireplace and super comfy bed in our room made for a wonderful afternoon.

Spent a weekend getaway here with my wife. Super cozy room (16, in the cabins) with a delightful fireplace. Perfectly relaxing. The town of Lenox is very cute and a short easy walk, another perk. Afternoon sherry in the main house was awesome. Breakfasts were great, dinner was average--not as amazing as we expected based on other reviews. Went to Alta the night before and THAT was well worth it. Did not take advantage of the pool (closed for winter) but I am sure it is great. Overall, would definitely stay here again.

Stayed for a night at the Garden Gables in Lenox. Just a really nice inn with a friendly and hospitable innkeeper. Upon check-in, my wife and I were given a tour of the premises, we were told we could light a fire in either of the two fireplaces and enjoy sherry in the sherry room...all hotels should have a sherry room. I have a gluten allergy, and mentioned this when making the reservation - no problem. The innkeeper even prepared some gluten free brownies for me. They were easily the best brownies I've ever had. Breakfast was delicious. Both a la carte options and made to order options. Overall this was an excellent experience and I look forward to staying there again. only negative: the bathroom (as warned in the room description) was a little small.

The reviews for this Inn rate it the best for a reason. We visiited just after the foliage season making for a much needed quiet break from Boston prior to preparing for the holidays. Being able to walk to the local shops and out for dinner was nice and the Inn is perfectly located in-order to make short drives to other destinations in the area as well. Our room had charming furnishings with modern upgrades that you would expect at this type of property. Denise the Inn Keeper was very kind, attentive and assisted with area attractions which was also helpful as this was our first stay in the Berkshires. A great stay at a great property that has interesting history. Don't forget to make the 15 minute drive to the orchard/winery that is held by the same ownership!

My husband and I were celebrating our first wedding anniversary, and were in need of "us" time I feared that an B&B wouldn't allow the privacy we desperately needed, and our city life couldn't provide. Denise the Inn keeper was a perfect mix for concierge and Lennox expert with and extra side of being an amazing chef. Our tough lives melted in her daily chocolate chip cookies, and wonderfully made breakfast feast hearts. We adored every moment of our stay and I was so thankful she was so incredibly knowledgeable about GLUTEN FREE eaters that I felt safe and taken care of. She even sent me a wonderful recipe for flour brownies. I couldn't believe the service and how comfortable we were. Ten stars!

We just completed a three and a half week tour of the Northeastern United States, which included three nights at the Garden Gables Inn. While it is a lovely inn with good service, breakfast, and common areas, I would suggest being very selective in the room chosen.

We were shown our friends room, #1, which was large, roomy, 2 twins made into a king bed, had a sitting area with two chairs and corner windows which provided lots of light.

The room was lovely with a small deck perfect for enjoying a glass of wine and admiring the beautiful changing fall colors.

We had an excellent stay at the Garden Gables Inn. Key features were: The room was very comfortable, a good size and the log fire was a welcome feature Breakfast was outstanding and significantly better than other inns where breakfast is often cereal and muffins. Both in quality and quantity it matched and exceeded breakfast in 5* hotels. Location was perfect, both in relation to the Berkshires where journeys to north and south were easy, and in relation to the town where it was an easy walk to restaurants I would also mention very welcoming staff particularly as there had been a power cut in the region. The staff could not do enough to ensure we were provided with back up lighting.

This is a honest posting from a NYC working girl. I truly enjoyed my time here and want to make sure I do my part to help bring more business the folks at Garden Gables because they deserve it and I know you will enjoy it! So here's my review..... I have nothing but great things to say about Garden Gables. It's quaint, comfortable, and cozy. It has all the appeals of a New England B&B (24 hr. dry and cream sherry room, apples from the local orchard, fabulous in-keepers) with modern amenities (password free wireless, 24 hr computer usage, complimentary NY Times). They even have an outdoor heated pool that they close in September. It's perfectly located just a short stroll from "downtown" Lenox. The breakfast spread was delish (bacon, ham, made-to-order omelet, fruit,…

One of our family members picked this Inn as the perfect place for our first family reunion in MANY years. They were so RIGHT! We took over the whole Inn for the weekend ( aprox 30 of us for meals) . The choices and preparation of all our meals could not have been better. The service and attention to detail was superb. The town had plenty to offer for our varied interests, the casual atmosphere made for easy conversations in the well furnished and comfortable main living rooms. The beds were comfortable and bathrooms clean with the right soaps and lotions for the weekend. On top of all this the weather behaved beautifully. We would definately consider recommending the Green Gables Inn to anyone!

We had the wettest 3 day stay, which, of course, had nothing to do with the inn. That said, inside was warm, hospitable, and comfortable. We even made use of the inns' umbrelllas. the public rooms invite you to enjoy their comforts and good taste - even to cookies, apples (from their own trees), coffee and tea. The staff are friendly and helpful to just the right extent. Breakfast - perfect. Our room was comfortable and quiet. I must find something which could be improved! It's time to have glass doors on the shower. WE SHALL HAPPILY RETURN FOR A SUNNIER VISIT.

We had a wonderful Labor Day weekend at the Garden Gables Inn and look forward to our next visit! Peggy was a lovely hostess, the whole staff was very helpful, the building was historic and charming, and breakfast was AMAZING!!!! Only possible improvements might be a better mattress (too soft and saggy in the middle) and a small in-room fridge for wine/cheese. All around great!!! -elizabeth and steven.

This was my gift to my daughter for her 40th Bday. I could not have picked a better place to stay. The Inn is centrally located but very private. The staff were so helpful, giving us tips and directions. We loved the breakfast choices. Both my daughter and I said these were the best omelets and pancakes we had ever had...and we are breakfast lovers! Each night, we would sit downstairs, have tea and cookies and visit with other guests.

On our first trip to the Berkshires we were lucky enough to have chosen Garden Gables Inn. Everything was perfect except the breakfast was beyond that. The blueberry pancakes, sausage and bacon , fresh squeezed orange juice, homemade chocolate chip cookies, too much to list....

We had a most enjoyable stay here last week. The grounds were beautiful, the huge pool was a perfect ending to a day of exploring the area, and our room was comfy and attractive. Being able to walk into town for all the great shops and restaurants was an added plus. Delicious cooked breakfasts on the sun porch were a treat, as well as the afternoon sherry (and fresh-baked cookies) in the living room. The staff were all friendly and helpful. Best of all were the innkeepers:John and Peggy made us feel right at home and offered lots of good suggestions for things to do in the area.

Extraordinary service, lovely Inn Keepers and exceptional staff! Our Room, #15 was immaculate, well appointed and the bed was very comfortable. It is large with lots of storage, which we needed, because we stayed 8 nights and it included a sitting area which opened to the balcony with a view of the back yard. The housekeeping staff went well above and beyond my expectations. I was experiencing a slight skin irritation after bathing and using the bathrobes provided. My husband did NOT have this problem. Regardless, the staff provided me with specially washed towels and robes and I was completely fine the rest of the stay. Breakfasts were a highlight which we looked forward to each morning. It is served in two charming locations, the dining room or enclosed sun porch. …

We recently stayed at this inn on a last-minute visit. Overall, it was a very nice inn, with one caveat. The location is pretty much ideal, just a few blocks from many restaurants and shops in Lenox. At the same time, it is away from the street and very peaceful and quiet. The grounds are beautiful, with flowers and lovely trees. And the inn itself is very well kept - very cozy. The common rooms are very nicely appointed. The pool also looked very inviting, although we didn't have a chance to check it out. The innkeepers were wonderful. Both were extremely friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. We felt at home right away. The breakfast was tasty and served in a lovely breakfast room. And the free availability of excellent cookies and tea was very nice for snacking. The one…

We stayed at the Garden Gables Inn to celebrate my mother's birthday. It could not have been more perfect. The inn and grounds are beautiful. My husband especially enjoyed his daily swim in the large, inviting (and heated) pool. The rooms are charming, the staff is friendly and attentive, and the breakfast is one of the best we've had at a B&B. Although it's an easy, one-block walk to all the great shops and restaurants in downtown Lenox, when you're at the inn you'll feel like you're a world away.

We discovered the Garden Gables about ten years ago, and have been returning every year. The location is superb, about 1 block from “downtown” Lenox, but set far enough off the road to produce a quiet, country-like atmosphere. The Vittori family and their staff always make us feel welcome. Their cook-to-order breakfast and breakfast buffet provide a great start to the day. By the time you head back to your room after breakfast, your room has been cleaned and made-up. Dinner in the Lenox restaurants can be noisy and rushed on Tanglewood nights. This year we had Saturday evening dinner at Garden Gables, and it provided a needed alternative to the often noisy and crowded places in Town. While the selection was somewhat limited (four main courses), the food was well…

Never having seen it in person I took a chance on Garden Gables Inn based on excellent reviews and was not disappointed. The grounds are beautiful, bursting with lovely and colorful summer blossoms. There are lounge chairs scattered throughout the property as well as a large pool. The common areas of the Inn are very inviting and charmingly decorated as well as spacious offering lemonade, homemade cookies and sherry at any time of day you should desire. The room we stayed in was a suite. It was very clean, well laid out. There was ample drawer and closet space. There were separate air conditioning units in each room of the suite so that everyone could adjust it to their own comfort level.

The Berkshires is one of our favorite summer destinations, and Garden Gables Inn is our favorite place to stay. We have stayed at many other inns over the years, but Garden Gables has them all beat. The location is wonderful - - private and secluded but close to Tanglewood and walking distance to Lenox. The rooms are beautiful and charming, but still have modern amenities such as air conditioning and TV. The inn also has a lovely in-ground pool for relaxing after a long day of hiking or cultural events. Best of all, innkeepers Peggy and John go out of their way to make their guests comfortable. The breakfast is sumptious, and the special touches, such as home-baked chocolate chip cookies, etc., really add to the whole feeling. It is a bit pricey but, like us, most guests…

After staying at another nearby Inn in Lenox for more years than I can count, we decided to make a change. Looks like we made the right choice as the Garden Gable Inn was not only really charming & lovely, it was close to everything in Lenox. The service was excellent, the breakfast amazing and the facilities were very clean. They even served fresh baked cookies, tea and coffee anytime you had the urge + complimentary sherry & peanuts in the casual living room. Spa treatments were available but I did not partake this time. For me as a Realtor and traveler , the fact that the Inn had free use of a computer readily available was perfect.

Aside from running a tight ship, when you arrive, you feel like you're visiting relatives who have really been looking forward to seeing you.

In a town of pretty country inns and B&Bs, this has to be as good as it gets. The rooms are large, attractively decorated, and very clean. The property is spacious and beautifully landscaped, and it is one of the few B&Bs with a large, heated pool. The innkeepers are friendly and helpful. The breakfasts are great. The location couldn't be better--it is within a block of the historic downtown area. Tanglewood and other cultural attractions are a short drive away. It is pricey, but no more so than properties of comparable or lesser quality; and it is worth it.

Just driving up the long driveway and seeing the beautiful Inn hidden behind the trees - we knew we were going to love it. The Innkeepers (Peggy & John) are right at home doing what they love to do - and it shows. Not only are they excellent hosts, but they also cook a mean made-to-order omelet. Breakfast was always a great start to our day - with Peggy giving us some tips on places to go and things to do. The place was very clean; the beds were comfy; and the room was very nicely decorated. We had alot of fun seeing the sights of Lenox and the surrounding towns. And when it rained one day...WE SHOPPED!!!!! (That's a must on a Girls…

First, the rooms are comfortable and cozy - including a flat screen tv with built in dvd player, a fireplace, and a sitting area. As for the breakfasts, there is good variety - both a selection to order from and a buffet. There are sitting rooms on the main floor that are very inviting, with quality furniture. The proprietors are very friendly, are clearly experienced at running the B&B, and clearly enjoy what they do. They have cookies and fruit available during the day which is a nice touch.

The Garden Gables Inn is a true gem. The property is well maintained with pretty flowers and rich green lawns. The common areas are comfortable and inviting – listen to lovely music in the living area while sipping Sherry or using the Inn’s guest laptop. In this area, there is also lots of information about the Berkshires and interesting activities and sites to see in the area. My friends and I visited Edith Wharton’s home (The Mount) and the Norman Rockwell Museum. We also went horseback riding and had several delicious meals at restaurants in Lenox. We stayed in the Hilltop Orchards Suite – Room 12. In the late afternoons, we enjoyed the sun on our private little terrace. The suite was spacious enough for our group of four, but felt cozy as well. We all enjoyed the Anichini…

Management response from Peggy and John Roethel, Innkeepers An innkeeper's job is made easy and enjoyable when caring for and getting to know wonderful people! Two of our latest reviews come from four such gals - Karen and Carol (sisters) and Mary and Carol. They were so very appreciative of every effort, full of life and fun, and some of the warmest guests we have had the privilege to serve. We miss them and hope they all return soon!

From the moment we drove up the leafy green driveway, we thoroughly enjoyed the peace and charm of Garden Gables. The Inn is beautifully nestled amongst a serene woodland garden, and is as spick and span in every detail as you could possibly want. John and Peggy greeted us on arrival and immediately we felt extremely welcome. Our bedroom (rm 15), complete with four poster, was beautifully furnished and accommodated all of our luggage and shopping with ease, and ample sitting room. The bathroom had a crisp clean modern feel (no aging fixtures here) and I was particularly impressed with the Aveda products on offer- such a delight after a long journey.

My husband and I were looking for somewhere to spend a romantic long weekend last fall, and I stumbled upon this B&B online. It was a little more than a two-hour drive north of Manhattan. Because of its proximity to Tanglewood, the summer home of the Boston Symphony Orchestra and various other music festivals, the high season here is the summer. But, I highly recommend a visit in the fall as well. The foliage was absolutely incredible, and there is apple picking available nearby if you're interested in that sort of thing. It's also a great time to take advantage of the inn's lovely fireplaces. Our room (Room 14) had one situated in the corner as well as a small terrace, which makes a great spot for morning coffee. Our beautiful four-post bed was very comfortable. The bathroom…

It was a very nice place to spend our anniversary. We loved the room- it had a fireplace and small balcony. The bed was very comfortable. Bathroom was clean and updated. The grounds were nice- It rained a lot before we got there so it was a bit wet and muddy. The food was good. We had breakfast that was made fresh and served with a smile. The Inn keepers were very pleasant and helpful. They gave us great recommendations for dinner. The winery/apple orchard that is included was ok. Not much to see but we are not big wine drinkers and it wasn't apple season. The only complaint we have was the whole area seems a bit pricey. The town isn't that big and not a lot to see. We would recommend it but it's a not a cheap weekend away.

My girlfriend and I stayed at the Garden Gables Inn for our anniversary in March. The Inn is literally a 2 minute walk to the center of Lenox Village, where all the shops/restaurants are located. It is set back from the road so there is a nice level of privacy, and there is plenty of parking for the guests. We stayed in the Room 10 (Furnace Brook Winery Suite), and loved it. John and Peggy are the innkeepers, and they are amazing. Friendly, accommodating, and really willing to go above and beyond. I 'm not sure which one cooks the breakfast, but it was probably some of the best breakfast food we've ever had. If you're going to visit the Berkshires, I'd highly recommend the Garden Gables Inn.

It sits on 5+ acres far enough off the main street to be somewhat tucked away, yet easily walkable to town center. The Inn itself has been beautifully updated by the Vittori family.

Because of challenges we faced recently, we really needed a getaway that was fun and relaxing. We spent 4 nights at the Garden Gables Inn and really loved it. John and Peggy, the innkeepers were absolutely wonderful. We've been to many B&B's in the past and this one had snacks and drinks laid out during the day. In addition, we felt very comfortable in the common areas and used them often yet there was still a very quiet feel to the place. We loved our "home" for 4 days. The decorations and furnishings in the common areas are beautiful. Most appreciated was an efficient computer in the livingroom with full Internet access at no charge. We logged on…

We stayed for a week in two of the one room cottages and they were perfect for our needs. The place is quiet respecting the guests wish for peace and relaxation. We felt immediately comfortable like a having a home in the Berkshires. It was a great base for the things we wanted to do. Nice sitting Rooms where you could read, relax or work. Wifi connectivity was a big plus. Now we are back in England we especially miss the home cooked pancakes and waffles for breakfast! All in all our family have very happy memories of our stay at the Garden Gables in the Fall and would certainly return perhaps next time for Tanglewood..

The Garden Gable Inn is a beautiful, charming, superbly maintained property steps from downtown Lenox. Very gracious and knowledgable innkeepers and staff made our stay memorable. The breakfast room and menu is outstanding.

I traveled to the Berkshires with my mother and it's hard to find a nice room with twin beds in Lenox. It was our good luck the Garden Gables Inn had one available because we had a great stay. The room was spotlesss and delightfully decorated and furnished and the historic home is warm and inviting with wonderful living areas, a dining room and heated breakfast porch (we were there in October and could still enjoy it), and nice amenities all around. The breakfast is fresh, delicious, and abundant with something for everyone. The bathroom was a little on the small side but that was insignificant given all the other amenities. I especially appreciated the free wifi and there's a guest laptop if you don't want to bring one.

For my sister's 45th birthday we surprised her by taking her to Garden Gables with her closest girlfriends from across the country. We lounged in our luxurious rooms and ate the beautiful chocolate covered strawberries our Inn hosted provided us with! We stayed up all night talking in all the different cozy rooms --- and when it came time to make a birthday cake, the Inn Keepers even let me use their kitchen to do some of my own home cooking! What a relaxing and glorious getaway for us girls -- not to mention: the grounds are GORGEOUS too! I want to go back tomorrow!

The Columbus day weekend was a great time to visit the Berkshires and the Garden Gables Inn was very accommodating. Our room (#14) was terrific and very comfortable. My wife and I felt very much at home from the moment we arrived and John and Peggy were great hosts. The town was a few minute walk with great restaurants and shops. Many attractions near by and not enough time to do ti all. We can't wait to go back. Tom & Toni
