The lodge was amazing. The rooms were huge and very very spacious, including the bathrooms. Extremely clean and the mattress and pillows were the most comfortable ones I’ve ever come across in a hotel room. The staff was very friendly and warm. Unfortunately they were shutting down for business and I was apparently the last guest to checkout! I wish they’d keep it running. I’d go back to the catskills just to stay there!
I had gone up to get away from my hectic life and have some peace and quiet in ski country. The hotel is fine, it more than lived up to my expectations. Friendly staff, clean room, quiet, pretty setting in the woods. I'd go back! Thank you Nate and Brian!
Was a bit hesitant with some of these reviews but the stay was not bad at all. The room we stayed in (in the Lodge upstairs) was spacious and clean. Had a good night sleep and a good shower the next day. Some complained about the breakfast but had no issues with it. They had all kinds of bagels, good butter and jam, good coffee, and excellent orange juice and pineapple juice. Would stay there again next time I return to Hunter.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Pretty run down and old. Door in bathroom didn't work, whole place needs a lot of love.
Front desk was super nice though.
The rooms are very clean. The property is well kept for the most part. Very outdated though but that personally doesn’t bother me. Staff was very friendly. Only issue I’d say is the “breakfast”. It essentially is store bought bagels (horrible ones at that), ice cold hard boiled eggs, and a few other things. Nothing warm like we were expecting.

Disliked: Cleanliness, room comfort
Overpriced, freezing, missing blinds for windows
Overpriced. Absolutely, no one liked the place in my party. There was a sponge in the sink that was dirty, not a new one for guests to use. I have not stayed somewhere with no tissues before. The living room with the tv was freezing, even with the heat turned up to max. Absolutely, no privacy, because of missing blinds in the kitchen and living room. I would not recommend.
Definitely a nice place to stay. One thing I didn't realize is there are two parts - the hotel- and motel-side. The hotel-side (lodge) is likely nicer (and more expensive). The motel-side is labelled "economy" and it's exactly that. Pleasant enough. No frills.
We stayed in the Main Lodge. Accommodations were clean, comfortable, gd. shower & comfortable bed. Front staff were extremely friendly & helpful. Will stay again.
