The Inn was so beautifully decorated and the landscaping was incredible! The view out every window had a spectacular view of Squam Lake and the fall foliage.
Breakfast was included and was very delicious. The staff were so welcoming and friendly.
We will definitely be back.

We stayed at this expensive B&B but on Tuesday and Wednesday they have no services. They offered us yogurt and berries and croissants on Tuesday and Wednesday am. No other breakfast. On Wednesday am. They didn’t even had berries and the croissants were stale from the day before. They are rated 4 stars but no room service. Their answer to our disappointment was we should have read their website and that it is Expedia fault. Don’t go there on a Monday or Tuesday and think you will get a B&B experience Not a $475 / night experience. Disappointed. We would like a refund

A Special Place

We had a wonderful stay. Our only complaint is that our beautiful suite had a very strong and lingering cleanser-type smell (perhaps carpet shampoo) and the window AC units were rather loud (but we were grateful for their cooling ability!). The staff were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was fresh and delicious, cooked to order and our dinner there was wonderful. The view of Squam Lake is magnificent and we enjoyed sitting on our little deck off of our suite.

The Manor on Golden Pond is like stepping back in time. The property is nicely maintained. If you are looking for modern luxury, this is not the spot for you. But if you appreciate turn of the century architecture and luxury, you will love the Manor. Our room was on the second floor of the carriage house. Very peaceful and private with lovely views.

Check inn was easy and friendly. Room was large. Cleanliness so so. Especially during pandemic we would have thought you would see extra touches. They did give us a small bottle of hand sanitizer that was nice. Check in and check out they did not wear masks. NH is a low risk area but, still they can get the virus from visitors and should have worn them. Waitress did wear a mask at breakfast. There were dust and cobwebs on tables not in use in dining room.

Awesome Piece of History

If you love B&Bs with relishes food, beautiful scenery, and friendly staff you have to try this manor. I will try to get back for a s cons visit. This is a well experienced management and they don’t leave out any details. From the toiletries to the candlelight baths, this is a winner.

The Manor on Golden Pond

A lovely old building kept in very good shape. Clean room and spotless bathroom. The grounds are spacious and well groomed. The pool is in excellent condition. And the tennis court, while obviously not used very much, was also in good shape. Quiet and restful. An excellent dining room. We especially enjoyed breakfast while the sun reflected off of the lake below. The staff was very helpful and friendly. They obviously cared about the welfare and comfort of their guests. We plan on returning this winter.

Beautiful manor - great area - great time.

My husband and I took my elderly parents up to the Lakes Region in NH for a long weekend. Found this beautiful property on Travelocity - what a find. Gorgeous accommodations, wonderful food, beautiful area - lots to do. My husband and dad went golfing, while I took my mom to the Tanger outlets for some shopping. Took a dinner cruise on the Mount Washington and then a train ride around the lake the next day. Great time, beautiful scenery, great food, wonderful staff - very helpful. Highly recommend the Manor - can't wait top go back.

Pricey and not quiet on Golden Pond

The manor was ok, the staff was fantastic. It wasn't really water front. There was no place on the property where you could be next to the water. There is one spot in the front yard area where you have a distant view of Squam Lake. The included breakfast was great, just wished they offered room service. Dinner was just ok, and also pricey.

Another wonderful stay

We discovered the Manor last November and loved it, so looked forward to our return trip. Room had a fireplace and whirlpool tub (stayed in the Wellington). Everyone was so nice, always asking how our stay was, anything they could do. Food was excellent. Afternoon tea and biscuits in the library was a nice touch.

Service was excellent and all of the employees we encountered were very friendly and accommodating. The breakfast was delicious. Our room was very nice. Large and the in-room fireplace was a great touch. Our only regret is that we only had 1 night there. We will definitely be back.

Old and worn out.

The Manor is simply run down and in need of repair, which is evident everywhere. Virtually no cell phone reception and no reliable internet. Main house is far better than the cottages but a disappointing experience.

Very nice stay, with a few exceptions

My wife and I very much enjoyed our stay over Valentines day- it's an old well kept manor, and the staff were very nice. We stayed in the Wellington Room- the accomodations are very comfortable and clean (the bed was great, the jacuzzi spacious and clean, and the fire place perfect for a cold and snowy night). Our room only had a view of the yard, but it was the last they had available. The decor suggests someone's grandmother put it together 40 years ago, but I can't complain about an old manor being decorated with old styles. The dining area and bar have a very classy appearance- as did the meal itself. The food (dinner and breakfast) scored high points for both appearance and quality, though we didn't find the flavor to be anything special.

Really my only negative comment was with regard to the noise. Expedia advertises that they are 'sound proof' rooms, however we must have been over the kitchen because I could hear what sounded like doors and cabinets slamming until 11 pm, voices loud and clear from the hallway, and someone's V-day bed frame a'banging.

Not worth the money

I was looking forward to going this hotel and was very disappointed. It is definitely NOT worth the money. When I got there I thought I was lost and that I had made a mistake. The pictures are very misleading... The hotel isn't even on the lake. My room was small and dark with a tiny bathroom. The room has a super old TV with a VCR (yes a VCR!!!) and it did not have internet access. It felt like my grandmother's house in the 80's.
The place is OK but not worth the money at all.

Enjoyable Romantic Weekend Getaway

This is a great place to \"get away from it all.\" We had a room with a jacuzzi and fireplace, so it was a perfect way to spend a quiet evening. The comfortable robes and champagne the staff left in our room didn't hurt either! Meals were good and consistent throughout our stay. The cost for the room is expensive, but we felt the luxury was there to warrant the price. We also loved the shaded tennis courts for a morning round. The only challenge was that restaurants, bars and shops closed very early (around 8p-9p) and we felt there were limited activities in the surrounding area. But we would recommend The Manor to friends.

Gorgeous views, incredible complimentary breakfast

Amazing stay. The only complaint that I have is that I didnt stay at the Manor longer. We were in town to see a concert during Laconia Bike Week and unbeknown to us most of the hotels were sold out. We had no idea what a gorgeous property we were getting when we booked so we did not spend a lot of time here but we did enjoy a wonderful breakfast the next morning and walked the beautiful grounds before checking out. The inn keeper was lovely and really made us feel welcomed. I cannot wait to go back for a visit with my husband when we can spend some quality time on the property.
