Underwhelming experience, unfortunately. Everything is very dated and old. Even the TV was older, not a smart TV and only had basic cable channels, no tv guide or anything just channels 1-30. The bathroom was standard tub/shower, you have to do weird tricks to the shower knob to get it turned on and it took us a while to figure out. We even called the front desk to help us with it but they hung up and said they’d call back later (they never did). If you’re looking for a nicer experience, this isn’t it. It’s basic and comfortable for the most part, pretty clean. We got a good deal and stayed here during the 7/4 storms as we lost power and needed to shower and have a comfortable place to stay for a night. It served its purpose, we just thought we would be getting a different experience.

Decent hotel. Breakfast opened 30 minutes later than scheduled the morning I was there. Room was a little run down; small holes in the bathroom wall where it looks like a shelf was previously; a little bit of peeling wallpaper in the bathroom. Rusted our peep hole in the front door, but nothing majorly wrong.

The room appeared clean, but in the morning, we woke up to cockroaches on the bed pillow. I had my 10-month-old with me, and several roaches were crawling next to where he was lying on the bed. I quickly jumped up and packed up. Left breakfast that my fiance had just bought for us and RAN as fast as I could. Would not expect this at the Ethan Allen Hotel. Will never stay there again, waiting on a refund.

I have stayed at this property the last couple of years. This year it was over the July 4th weekend.
It is a large well maintained property that seems to be under utilized when I have stayed there. The rooms are well furnished and maintained.
The amenities are sparse compared to comparable properties. The hotel bar and restaurant had reduced hours, which may be a result of not many guests during this time.
I have to say I like this property- large gathering spaces and a lobby level lounge that goes on forever.
The food, which we had in bar area, was of good quality and tasty. It’s a shame the bar was not open Sunday evening when we wanted to have dinner and watch the World Cup!!
But this year, I was very disappointed in one aspect of my stay, which may be an indicator of other problems. The two TVs in my room did not function properly. Both were smart tv’s, and I was not able to get local stations. The streaming services were available (if you had a subscription) but the local stations were not available and engineering was not able to be of assistance. So I had no access to either local or cable stations. It looked like the TVs were new and had not been properly set-up when installed in the rooms. I had to stream what I wanted to see from my iPad.
I will probably return again, but I wonder whether this issue is a sign that things are amiss at the property. Time will tell.

We enjoyed our stay at the Ethan Allen Hotel. The hotel was clean, and spacious with multiple seating areas including a lovely lounge and courtyard. The pool was clean and came in handy during the hot spell. The hotel staff, including the housekeeping staff were helpful and friendly. The hotel was minutes from many amenities including a large mall and many restaurant options. We would highly recommend this hotel.

The check-in/check-out process was quick and easy. The front desk staff were personable and resourceful. I was asking questions about neighborhood attractions and dining options.

The room was clean and in good condition. The only issue that I had with the room was that the water didn’t drain immediately after the shower. I got in the shower directly after my husband and the water was up to my ankles.

Otherwise, it was a good stay and I would recommend this hotel.

We stayed for a night as a roadtrip spot so can’t speak to the amenities, but the room was fine - not great, not bad. It was clean and comfortable, but definitely showing its age. The bathroom was pretty sad, with weak water pressure and a tub that wouldn’t drain well. Unfortunately it wasn’t a step above the usual roadside hotel.

barely acknowledged by the woman at the front desk at check-in - just asked for ID and credit card, then handed me card key in envelope and pointed, telling me down the hall.
My room was on first floor and when traveling alone I usually do not stay on the first floor; room had ground access and adjacent to parking lot but I was too tired and decided I'd make sure of window locks for security.

The room's deadbolt lock didn't work and there was a chain lock instead of a bolt so that didn't help my need to feel safe.
This room had a number of deferred maintenance items: peeling wall covering, ripped blackout shade on the window, no heat lamp nor ceiling fan in bathroom - indeed the dial was on wall but without a button/handle to operate it, the stopper in bathtub did not move when I used the lever to lift it before taking a shower so I pulled it out and left it that way for my stay, the coffee pods were all decaffeinated, so I went to the front desk the next morning and asked if I could have a couple of caffeinated ones. The morning desk clerk said, 'oh yeah, housekeeping probably ran out; she opened a drawer near her full of coffee/tea pods for the keurigs in the rooms, picked out 1 caffeinated coffee and handed it to me saying that's all she had for the week. (I walked to the lobby area each morning after and filled 2 cups there). Maybe all minor issues, for sure, but I've stayed in many properties were maintained better and didn't charge as much. this was not worth the $

I would not recommend this hotel. I booked 2 beds for 3 of us. We flew up for an engagement party and my daughter drove us there and entered hotel at 11 pm. The woman at front desk was unbelievably rude and made it clear that the reservation was for 3 ppl, not 4. She then said they offered continental breakfast, but that it was not included in our reservation. We book hotels every few months. Never before has a staff mentioned that we were not allowed their Continental breakfast. Unbelievably rude.

The carpeting was extremely old and everything smelled musty. The bathroom in the room was very dated. They provided 1 roll of toilet paper and when I asked cleaning lady for another roll, she said she didn't have any. Two cups in the room for coffee, when room was booked for 3.
Also, we couldn't sleep because the A/C made a loud rattling noise all night.

Definitely does not deserve a rating of 8 or \"Very good\".

This hotel is tired . Our room had wallpaper beginning to peel at the seams and a clunking and burning smell emanating from the Heat/AC unit throughout the night . I’m surprised Ethan Allen would want its name associated with the hotel in its current condition .

The cleanliness was okay but there was some mold in the grout of the shower . This could be a nice hotel if cared for and cleaned up .

We sold our house very fast and stayed here for about 6 weeks with some breaks in between. We weren’t looking to spend very much and we needed a place that would accept dogs. The Ethan Allen Hotel met these requirements. The rooms are clean and the beds are comfortable. There are refrigerators, microwaves and coffee makers in the rooms. The staff is friendly and helpful. They put out complimentary coffee in the mornings and cookies at night. The common areas are nice and there is a pool and a garden with a sitting area outside. Room service is done on your third day if you’re staying longer than 2 nights. The hotel was never really full although they did have several busy nights. Most people seem to just stay one night. The rooms, at least the ones we were in, were tired and any touch ups were poorly done. For example, the ceiling was painted white but never trimmed in. Toilets didn’t seem to fit and the handle never really worked right which caused them to continuously run. The drains to the tubs never drained fast enough so you ended up standing in a puddle of water while showering. We ate at the restaurant a couple of times which, to our surprise, wasn’t bad! They have happy hour every night from 4-6 PM. I had the breakfast buffet one time and it was good, the cost was $14. There is a Dunkin Donuts and McDonalds right across the street. Down the street is a Diner and Bagelman. For Dinner, there are several good restaurants also not far down the street.

TERRIBLE - Stay Away!!

I've driven by this hotel many times and ASSUMED that with the ETHAN ALLEN name on it that it would be a very nice hotel. The facility is a time capsule that hasn't been touched or cleaned since the 1990s ! Torn and wrinkled carpets, banged up and dirty walls, tattered shades and drapes, dirty furniture, and the entire place SMELLED like a combination of musk and dirty feet.

Went into the restaurant 20 minutes before closing and the bartender told me (and 2 other guests) he could only make me a drink TO GO and that we couldn't stay in to drink it.

Hotel definitely was shopworn and needs updating. Expected decent furnishings as it represents a well known furniture store. But along with the carpeting which definitely needs to be replaced, the furnishings were in poor condition. One of the reasons it was selected for our stay was because it advertised “hotel restaurant and bar” but it was closed on the Sunday night we stayed. Suite was a decent size and easily accessible to the highway- only two positives in our stay.

I called a day prior to confirm booking because my last visit there was an issue finding my reservation and ended up being charged double for one night.
