    We got married at the Inn on Boltwood and had an incredible experience from beginning to end! To Catherine, Jeff, Cory, Sarah, Mitch and all of the dedicated staff at the Inn, we cannot thank you enough for making our day such a dream come true. We had our rehearsal dinner in the greenhouse room at 30 Boltwood the night prior and the food was incredible. We tried 30 Boltwood last year and both agreed that you truly cannot go wrong with any menu item - and my God you haven't lived until you have had their Mac and cheese. We had the 3 course meal with a choice of 3 entrees and both of our families have not stopped talking about it! We had multiple people who have allergies or restrictions and they were accommodated throughout the weekend, which was such a relief as they were able to just enjoy themselves fully. Sarah was an incredible help throughout the dinner and ensured we were all taken care of. We made the decision to move to an outdoor cocktail hour and tented reception due to COVID-19 mask mandates in Amherst, but you seriously could not tell it was not what we originally planned. We felt so secure that our plans would come to life in the hands of the staff, and we were so happy with how everything turned out! Our guests raved about the venue location, the passed hors d'oeuvres and the dinner selection and the staff were beyond communicative - again, Catherine was a HUGE help, from getting us champagne glasses, to general check ins, and helping get stains out of my wife's dress not one but two different times...Both of us have worked for wedding events and in the food service industry in the past and know just how much needs to go on behind the scenes to make an event successful. Their staff worked incredibly hard and provided such an incredible wedding during the heart of the pandemic, which is no easy task. Their flexibility and attention to detail were clear throughout the weekend and made every difference for us. It was an absolutely perfect weekend, which ticked every box for us and we cannot wait to come back for anniversary celebrations!

    Only four stars because they changed the name from the Lord Jeffery Inn. I had been coming here since I was a kid, as my grandparents were professors at UMass Amherst. More recently, my daughter was a track recruit at Amherst College so of course, this is where I wanted to stay. The interior has been completely renovated from the old days, eliminating a bit of the old school charm. Still, nostalgia and the prime location had me at five stars. Very recently, the name of the establishment was changed to the Inn at Boltwood because Lord Jeffery had a bit of a mixed history (according to today's standards) back in a colonial times. This falls into the camp of judging historical actors in the context of modern values, which drives all sorts of dubious decisions. But I digress... The room was charming with an enclose porch that was drafty. It's pretty much impossible to get to your room without encountering stairs, but that's ok for us. Parking out back was reasonably convenient, but the spaces are tight. The dining room is contemporary.

    This might have once been a decent budget hotel at which to stay, but sadly it's nothing great any…read moremore. The rooms are tired looking, small, and haven't been updated in decades. The breakfast is nothing but carbs; bread, cereal, cupcakes. No protein, no dairy other than milk for coffee. The fruit that's available looks like it's been sitting in the bowl for several months, certainly not fresh. We had a lot of issues with our room keys ceasing to work. Which was particularly frustrating considering that if we parked at the side door nearest our room we couldn't get it. In the two nights we were there we had to get our keys reprogrammed 4 times. The reception staff on the late shift are very surly, and certainly don't want to help you. Although close to the Hampshire Mall and other stores, the area outside gets quite seedy after dark. Next time I'm back visiting UMass I shall look for alternate accommodation It doesn't even live up to the adage 'cheap & cheerful'.

    I do not like to leave negative reviews for places but I want to state that this hotel has violated…read morefederal law by denying me and my family a room because of my service dog the hotels excuse was that because of covid they changed their policy on not allowing service dogs which is a violation of the American with disability act the hotel didn't even have the curtesy to call me before my trip to inform me of this they did it after we had been traveling all morning on trains from nyc to Hadley Massachusetts the gentleman behind the front desk did try to make right by sending us to a hotel down the street and I will be writing an whole other review on what transpired there as it was a complete horror I want something to be done as this incident caused my 8 year old son to have a medical episode from the second hotel and an extra 400 dollars that we didn't have it was completely unacceptable for the hotel to deny a service dog and it almost ruined our entire thanksgiving trip Stay away if you are a disabled person with a service dog they will tell you one thing when you book and. Then deny you when you arrive
