This 250 year old hotel was in great shape! The rooms and beds were so comfortable. I took two great exercise classes at the Equinox while my husband and sons golfed. We stayed on a Monday night. Unfortunately many restaurants were closed.

While I appreciated that at check in we were told we were being moved to a different room than the one we reserved, since the air conditioning wasn't working - the air conditioning unit in the room we got was like a jet engine taking off near our heads! Also, I went to remove a towel from the rack in the bathroom and the bar crashed to the floor because it was not secured to the wall, pieces were missing needed to screw it safely into place. I also was aware that every person checking in or out in front of me was also complaining about something in their accomodations.

We were charged for a restaurant meal that we never had. We called FIVE times to dispute this charge but never heard back. We ended up disputing through AMEX. While mistakes do happen, not addressing/fixing them is inexcusable. We recommend that you avoid this hotel and stay at the Hotel Taconic, which is nearby, newer, and better run hotel.

Check in was great. Our room was ready early, so we were able to check in right away, after a long drive. And I was able to call in to a meeting from the privacy of my room. There is a long walk from the entry to the elevator. My husband has a walker and it was difficult to get back and forth to/ from the room. We stayed here before - many years ago. The hotel is showing its age and could use some refreshing. Equinox team were great. Friendly and helpful.

The property is beautiful and the area is great; however, the resort is in desperate need of a refresh. I’m not sure how they can charge this much for rooms per night. The spa had lovely services but again, needs renovating.
