“Pleasantly surprised”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 March 2011

Every year our family travels to the berkshires to do one night of skiing and we book one night of a hotel and we usually do all of this at jimini peak, but last year our hotel experience wasnt that great and we spent a fortune so we decided to try somewhere new. we booked a hotel room SUITE (room #1) at whitcomb summit and planned to ski at berkshire east. WE LOVED IT. way better than jimini peak, and the skiing was half the price. we showed up to whitcomb summit motel at around 4 pm after a day of skiing and we were happy as the outside looked nicer than all the other motels on rt 2 (they all looked run down). we entered the hotel lobby and we were a little scared as it was a little bit outdated, but the owner checked us in and he couldnt be more polite, welcoming and friendly. he advised us on where to eat and was just overall happy! it was a nice surprise. we went to our room and the view of the mountains was unbelievable! we opened the door to the suite (not knowing what to expect) and again we were very excited and surprised. a clean, modern suite with two queen beds, a seperate bedroom with two twin beds and a big bathroom. we couldnt have been more pleased. we rested, showered and went to dinner and then came back to our room and slept in the very comfortable beds. my one and only complaint is that there was no tv in the second bedroom so our two boys stayed in the main room til late watching tv with us before they went to bed. but thats not really a complaint, just a suggestion i guess. the next morning, we dropped off our key and went to breakfast and i have to say we will definitley be back next year to do the same exact mini vacation! i highly recommend this motel!

“Exactly what we were looking for!!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 March 2011

My husband and I had the opportunity for a quick getaway and we were lucky enough to have found Whitcomb Summit Motel. I was extremely pleased with the room which was spacious, beautifully decorated and clean clean clean! We both had a great night sleep but waking up the the breathtaking view from the large picture window in our room was the best!! We brought our snowmobiles and were able to leave from the parking lot onto beauifully groomed trails for miles and miles! We will definetely be returning during the summer months with our children to enjoy many of the activities in the area ( tubing, hiking, kayaking, white water rafting, zip lining! ). The owner is dedicated to making sure his guests are pleased at all times! Great times with great people! We will be back soon!!!

“Total Relaxation”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 February 2011

The view from the porch or balcony of your room is reason enough to stay here. You can see 3 states from your door! I have sat there and watched sunrises, sunsets and rain/thunder/& lightning storms passing through in little cells all over the mountains while I sat in the sun high & dry.
I have stayed at many places in western MA over the years but this place is my final destination when out west. You are secluded for peace and tranquility and yet just a few minutes drive to other towns if the need arise. You is also close to the many attrations and sites the Berkshires has to offer. You name it you can do it from the Summit, the highest peak on the Mohawk Trail. Not to mention the prices are exceptional for food & lodging. Their newly open resteraunt and Bar is a very friendly atmosphere and the cheapest prices around! I have met people from all of the country who come to stay at the Summit. If you in the Berkshires you MUST try the Whitcomb Summit Inn, Tell Jim Russ sent ya!

“My first review of this place was removed for some reason”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 December 2010

I wrote a review of our stay there when we first returned home. I wrote that I suspected that family and friends of the owners wrote the other reviews. Now for some reason, my review has disappeared. The only good parts of this motel was that it was clean, quite, and had a great view. The observation tower was boarded up, the stairs to get on the porch to enter your room are dangerous, and the parking lot was six inches of mucky gray clay. If you don't have a 4x4 don't risk parking there. The "pub" was a seedy biker bar. All in all, the other reviews are misleading. I originally gave this place 3 stars, but after thinking about it and seeing that my review was removed, I would not suggest boarding your dog at this motel. I would give it zero stars if I could!

We are very sorry to hear that your first review was removed. We pride ourselves in maintaining a honest approach to guest's reviews and we can assure you that we didn't remove your review (we couldn't anyway) or in any way influence any other reviews posted here. You may want to contact TripAdvisor to figure out what happened.

We are very blessed to have the opportunity to work on this historical property and keep it from becoming just another chain motel and loosing it's character. At times, with heavy rains or a lot of snow melting, our parking lot gets muddy, the result of not paving it yet, but never to the point that regular cars can't park or drive here. We are in the process of renovating our entire property and our tower and parking lot are on our list of projects to be completed this coming year.

We have completed all the renovations in the motel rooms and we are glad that you found them clean, quiet and enjoyed the great view from your room.

Our Tavern's doors are open to many different people from all walks of life since we are located on a scenic highway: from senior citizens, to motorcyclists, snowmobilers, and families alike enjoying the area. We are always happy to see the diversity and fun they all have here.

We appreciate your comments greatly and will work hard on making any of your suggestions our top priority so everyone has a great experience while at the Top of this mountain.
