Beautiful grounds and common areas. Room was plain which was fine but a/c was inefficient and the bed was just ok. K-cups are not coffee in my book, and we had better pastry elsewhere. The location was great for us, the town is cute. Everything was closed on Sunday so we headed to Chester which is close and adorable too. All the towns shut down early so plan accordingly even restaurants and ice cream places. Vermont is gorgeous and friendly. If you get a chance, do go.

The house was beautiful and very nice. It was a self check in and I did speak to one person as I was checking in who was also very nice. We stayed in the hotel part and the beds were very small. Plus side it was a quiet area and we were not disturbed. Air conditioning work great.
Downside, we never saw another staff member accept when we checked in. No one was around anywhere. There was a dining room but it was closed. When we checked out it was a self checkout and I had no one to give my key to so I left it on the counter. Just a very strange experience

What a gem! This property was amazing, we stayed in two rooms both well equipped and perfectly styled. It felt like a boutique hotel. My teenagers all stayed in a room together with a trundle bed and two queens. The dresser had fun board games and cards and lots of books in the built in. My husband and I were across the hall in a smaller room that looked like it came out of a magazine. We were in the back portion, but had full access to the mansion - complete with music, water, coffee and pastries. It was stunning and had plenty of space for us to play cards together. My kids got a kick out of the fact that the house was the home of Helen Hartness Flanders - as Springfield was recognized as the official home of the Simpsons. The town looked cute, and we searched for places to eat and there were some good options. We ended up in the next town over at Outer Limits Brewery since we are always up for finding new beers.

The mansion is beautiful and the room (hotel side) was clean, but the property was not maintained. My reservation was for Friday thru Monday which you would think being a weekend there would be guests staying. I believe I was one of three. It felt deserted/abandoned. I saw one staff member my whole stay. There were no amenities, not even an ice machine. I checked out a day early because I was just not comfortable. It felt like a scene from a horror movie. Very disappointing. So much potential.

Quaint stay in Springfield, VT in a 1904 built mansion which is a National Historic Landmark. Wonderful room in the attached hotel adjacent to the mansion. The rooms were beautiful and the mansion itself had a coffee & drink station in a beautiful reading room complete with grand piano, 1920s-era music, and a library. The property is quiet but close to the downtown. It's a 12 minute walk to the downtown area. The Copper Fox is a must try restaurant. The atmosphere and experience can't be beat. My wife and I will be returning in the future.

So be aware, YOU ARE PROBABLY NOT SLEEPING IN THE BEAUTIFUL MANSION. There is long ugly gray motel in the back, where the rooms actually are. Our host was lovely on check in & I kinda feel bad for this tepid review but as our friend said \"this place has all the charm of a upscale Motel 6\". Our room was clean & ok for a nights sleep though & the price was right for us.
Room 24's bed had the DREADED \"constantly roll into the middle of the mattress\" SWALE in it, our friends said, so maybe they could replace that.
The motel connects to the mansion & your are kindly told you can come, \"check it out at night & in the morning there is continental breakfast & coffee\" here. I actually wish they opened the beautiful bar on the weekend so we could have sat there & had a drink instead of going back to the Motel 6.
Anyway, it was fine, but not exactly what we expected.

No usual & customary check in-Envelope put on front door for check in. Unfortunately, we were in the way back of mansion in a double bed room no microwave or refrigerator.
However, Tyler the inn keeper was fabulous. Took my daughter on an under ground tour of the museum, laboratory & telescope.
Interesting history on the Hartness House.
We would stay again, picking a room in the main mansion.

The place was very clean and well kept, but we felt like we had the entire Inn to ourselves. We heard coughing from another room, but it felt very empty.

We saw a staff member only in the morning and they were great! Very friendly, very helpful and took us on a tour of the tunnels and told us the history of it all.

What was disappointing is the lack of a restaurant/ bar which was a big highlight when we stayed here years ago. When we came here years ago, it felt lively with what seemed like locals coming for dinner and hanging out and guests enjoying the their time. This time around, aside from the morning we were there with the staff member, the whole experience felt hands off. We even joked that it felt like the \"Ghosts\" were running the business.

Would we return, yes. But as the staff member said, we were in the slowest time of the year, the in between seasons. So, next time, for us, perhaps a busier time and maybe after they open the restaurant/bar for good food and good times.

We were given a room in the very back of the facility by a passcode given to unlock the back door ourselves, and the facility seemed to be a cheaply constructed addition to the original mansion and the whole place seemed to be quite empty. We were already disappointed at the condition of the poor room, we realized that the room also reeked with cigarette smell which gave us bad headache. No staff was to be found in the building to assist us, and after calling a number, a staff person was reached after some time, and came to the property, gave us a different room which was in the mid-section and much cleaner compared to the first disastrous room offered to us.

The cleanness (or the lack of it) was very disappointing for the first room we were given and I hate to imagine if we got there later in the evening and no one could come to fix the problem we had.

The main lobby interior was very charming as shown in the pictures, but there was no air conditioner running so it was stuffy and not pleasant to stay there either.

Nice house, but somewhat lacking in engagement.

Check in was a little confusing as we didn’t have the code to enter, however an envelope was left for us at the main entrance. We were in the motel section which was clean and quiet, however not all amenities were present. Arrived around 7:30pm, but disappointed that the bar was to be closing soon. Beautiful house, nice self serve breakfast amenities however again disappointed not to see anyone present to talk to or ask about the details of the house. Perhaps it was because it was a Monday evening/Tuesday morning, but felt like we missed out on more of an engaging experience. Almost seemed like an empty house.

Finding it was a problem. Goggle maps sent me in circles. The mansion itself was lovely but the hotel attached to the back was hardly better than a youth hostel. The room and linens were clean but parking was just bare ground and broken curb stones too rough to wheel luggage over. Most of the time my room had no internet connection. Most of the time there was no staff available on site. There was no ice. The bar was closed by 8 on Saturday night; maybe it was never open. It was comfortable but much too expensive for what it was. The manager was nice.

Staying in a clean hotel/rental is top priority for me and my family. Our room (35) in the back rooms of the Hartness house was impeccably clean. Pay attention to your booking, there are many rooms not in the original house where we stayed and I would highly recommend. You still have access to the charming main house, with its rich history, and if you’re lucky, a tour down underneath the house to check out James Hartness’s private quarters, telescope and small museum honoring him and many inventors from his time. Breakfast was just what we needed before heading to Okemo to ski, only a 25 minute drive. The small town of Springfield is very charming as well, with food options and remnants of an industrial era. The Hartness House is definitely worth a stay

I was looking for an overnight stay after skiing with my adult children and visiting family nearby. We were limited because of only needing a one night stay when Hartness House popped up on the internet. Was a sweet surprise because this place was a gem. I was getting in late so the area was dark but then we pulled up to the mansion being well lit with beautiful string lights. They give you a door code to the front door and to your room so no assistance was needed at the late hour. The inside was wonderful with its old world phones, victrola, grand staircase and all the comfy seating areas on the first floor. The next morning we woke to coffee and scones in the living space and sat in the window seats. Upon reading about the Hartness history and the tunnels underneath we were able to get an unexpected tour of the tunnels, office and lab underneath. The history was really something. The woman was very informative and knew all the facts about the space under the mansion and the family and took a lot of pride telling us about it.

The staff is really nice and helpful. There is a lot of history to the property and the staff manager gives very insightful tours. The property is clean and comfortable. Very easy to check in and out.

The place is really nice and clean. I am not sure about the totally automated check in and out. I am 75 years old and it was kind of strange to not interact with any of the staff.

It wasn't the easiest check-in, it took about 15 minutes for me to actually get inside the building because I did not receive an email with my information only an envelope with my information taped to the front door after the only directives I was given was to check in through the back door. I was also disappointed that they don't have any microwaves or refrigerators in their hotel rooms.

Check in was confusing. I had received emails with conflicting instructions. Tried to register using a kiosk just inside the door then finally gave up. Was able to access our room anyway.
The TV system was complicated but was able to watch a rerun of a tv program. Too difficult for seniors who are not very tech savvy.
Breakfast selection was dissapointing.

Very nice facility. Rooms are pretty basic. No amenities like a coffee maker or refrigerator or anything other than a couple of plastic cups. Coffee station in Main Hotel is quite a distance from the rooms in the back section. Also no cable, but smart TV for streaming was nice.

I appreciate the coffee, pastries and fruit. The lobby needs renovating. 2/3 bathrooms out of order, ceiling over lobby area in front near windows looks like it's going to cave in, rooms are adequate - have bare minimum. not attractive or inviting

There was no staff on site. The place seemed deserted. An envelope greeted us with directions, very basic and very expensive for what we got. Chain lock on the door broken. My wife said if she was alone, she would not have stayed here. One other car in the lot of an establishment with 43 rooms. Very weird experience. Perfect setting for aStephen King novel.

this building is very old and when it rains it is impossible to be in it, because the mold that blooms in the walls and starts to stink. people who have allergies develop breathing problems. When we were resting there, I slept on the street, in the car, because I almost choked

I can’t give a full review due to COVID interrupting some of the service, but amazing stay. The dinner at the Veranda was amazing, breakfast was also amazing. Staff is extremely friendly, I would suggest staying in the more modern wings if you’re picky about hotel rooms. They continue to offer tours at convince of guests. Would come back!

A unique property with great history and a beautiful setting. The House has tons of character, great food, and fantastic staff. The new ownership has even bigger plans for an already great place. I am excited about my next stay.

The place to stay in Vermont

This was an unexpected highlight during our trip to New England. I booked it due to convenience but it ended up being an attraction. We received a tour of the Mansion and history of it's original owner and the area. I wish we had the time to stay over another night or two.

Overall, I would rate this property as excellent at the price point. We stayed in the addition on the back for a very good price on a peak skiing weekend (President's Day). Our room with two double beds was very spacious and bright, and was exceptionally clean. The bathroom was spotless with newer tub and fixtures, and excellent water pressure. It seemed like the other guests were mostly skiers; a very nice, family-friendly group. Parts of the facility could benefit from renewed furniture or carpeting, but it seems like the owners/team at the Inn are working with what they have to make it as nice as they can in a small town, tourism-driven operation.

The property is historic and beautiful and it was very relaxing staying in a room in the mansion proper. My only complaint is the bed was not very comfortable and it made it hard to get a good night's rest.

We didn’t stay in the main house, instead a newer addition, which was more modern and basic. It was very clean and comfortable, but was looking for a different kind of setting. The breakfast was great and the place was scenic.

Historic building that struggles to stay open.

Having left the paper with the front and back door code in our room, there was no way to get in or get a hold of someone after 8 pm. Left messages and online emails and to date, never received a response. Being a Springfield native and staying here multiple times over the years, I've come to the point where I will no longer stay here.
