The Ellery

The location was very good, close to downtown Northampton. The rooms were large, very clean and the bed was quite comfortable, as was the bedding. A very pleasant surprise was the reception room with a huge fireplace and a blazing fire, comfortable chairs and tables, plus books and magazines and interesting artwork. The breakfast options provided were quite good and more varied than many chain hotel offerings.

We loved the ground floor room and that we could park right next to our room. We were there for work and had to load and unload many items from the car. The room was spacious and the neighborhood was quiet even though it is close to downtown Northampton. It is convenient to King Street and Route 9 both a plus. The breakfast bar was wonderful with many healthy options. You are left peaceful for breakfast in a quiet and attractive space. Sometimes a few extras ran out that were advertised as being available on a 24 hour basis. The beds were soft for my taste, but the bedding was lovely and cozy. The room was slightly dusty under the beds and we both had allergic reactions, maybe to the air/heating system stirring up the dust?. That was really the only negative. We loved that you could open the windows! The staff is helpful both upon arriving and throughout our stay. (5 days) Two days after getting home I realized that I had forgotten some small but precious items in a drawer. I called the front desk and they knew instantly what I had left and had it in hand to describe it to me. I know it will be waiting for me upon my return. All in all a wonderful place to stay if you need quiet and peace and access to the wonderful area it is in.

They were very nice overall and helpful. I was really happy that I was able to bring my dog, and they do have a pretty decent area in the back of the hotel for a walk. It's also a nice safe neighborhood for walks. I wish they had a small rug in the room; the floors are all bare. I understand that is easier to clean, but less comfortable for a dog. Glad I had brought a pet bed along. Room very clean though and staff nice. Main room of motel has a nice fireplace (not lit on first day which was disappointing) that was lit for breakfast (which was not extensive but really well done).

Breakfast was great - a simple, but elevated continental. Appreciated things like vegan and GF options and good local coffee. King bed was comfy and the place was clean.

The location was great and the room was very clean. The bed was so comfortable. Breakfast had great options and there were cookies out when I checked in. The staff was very friendly and helpful. There was plenty of free parking.
