Decent accommodations... Great breakfast buffet. Food was pleasantly surprising! Good location - close to shops & Lenox center. Grounds and gardening could be improved with flowers etc. Add some greenery & flowers and dust a bit this place could be great

My wife, daughter, 5 year old grandson and I stayed in the "Maime" suite at the Cornell for just one night. Maime was really perfect for our troupe, with 2 rooms, 2 bathrooms, a fireplace, jacuzzi tub and a Murphy bed in the sitting room, which my grandson loved. Very comfortable and spacious, with great amenities. Breakfast was great also,... More

My wife and I spent 2 nights at the Cornell Inn - April 10 & 11, 2013. The Inn is a somewhat weary and worn Victorian but the rooms were very clean and breakfast plentiful and freshly prepared.

I didn't like the room and the bathroom. It was so cold and the heating was very noisy, impossible to use. The personnel is very nice and the breakfast rich for this kind of B&B. For one night it's OK. More suitable for young people who don't care about the comfort.

Thanks for your feedback. I am sorry you didn't enjoy your room in September. We welcome any specific feedback you might be willing to share. As far as the heating and air conditioning which cause you some discomfort, most electric units have been replaced since we took over as new owners around the time of your visit. I'd ask that...

When we arrived at the Cornell Inn there was no one at the reception area. We waited for a really long time before anyone showed up.

Thank you for your constructive feedback for your stay in October. That was during the transition to new ownership. As the new owner, I can say that I couldn't agree with you more.

I stayed at the Cornell Inn on Divine Mercy Sunday. I found the room to be clean and a good value. I found the staff to be exceptional. The Inn is about 10 minutes from the National Divine Mercy Shrine and an easy to get to from Cornell Inn. I would stay at the Inn again. David Dunham

Its a very nice location. Calm quiet and beautiful. We had an amazing stay there and the rooms and service was commendable. We requested to check out a little late than usual hours and they agreed without any extra charge. Thanks for your service. Will definitely suggest this.
