Positioned within walking distance to both Tanglewood and Kripalu, its accessibility is a high point for visitors. The property boasts charming historic buildings with character, complemented by well-restored and decorated reception areas. While the location is peaceful, it is conveniently close to delightful dining options and museums, balancing seclusion with entertainment. Guests appreciate the picturesque views, particularly from the pool, and find comfort in the Inn’s pleasing atmosphere and charming sitting rooms. Additionally, the pleasant staff adds to the experience, though some guests note the tricky stairway due to the property’s hillside position. Overall, the inn provides a serene and captivating backdrop, perfect for relaxation and cultural exploration.

Breakfast
Nestled in a picturesque setting with views overlooking the Berkshires, 'Apple Tree Inn' offers a breakfast experience that leaves a lasting impression on many guests. The morning spread is characterized by a mix of simple yet high-quality offerings, with homemade granola and fresh fruit frequently highlighted as standout elements. Guests are met with an enticing variety, including meats, cheeses, bagels, croissants, cereals, and lox, reminiscent of a European-style breakfast that some find reminiscent of travels in Germany.

The breakfast setting itself is often praised, contributing to the overall positive experience. Many reviews express satisfaction with the delightful flavors and plentiful options available, such as the particularly appreciated croissants and a fresh fruit salad that captivates the taste buds. For those who cherish their morning coffee, the inn serves a notably good pot, adding a comforting touch to the start of the day.

Rooms
Apple Tree Inn offers a unique lodging experience in a beautifully restored historical main building, surrounded by picturesque common areas and serene natural surroundings. The thoughtful restoration of the main house gives it a charming, inviting atmosphere. However, most of the rooms are located outside, which may appeal to those who prefer a more traditional motel style experience.

Guests consistently praise the comfort of the beds, emphasizing the high-quality linens that contribute to an excellent night’s sleep. Rooms are generally clean and provide adequate comfort, with some guests describing them as cute despite their simplicity.

On the downside, the lodge rooms tend to be very basic, and several reviews note issues with cleanliness and maintenance. Some rooms face challenges with lighting and ventilation, with complaints about musty smells and noisy air conditioning units. The exterior location of the rooms sometimes leads to inconvenient experiences, such as proximity to smoky fire pits or restrictive access.

For those planning to visit, it is advisable to request a room within the main house for a potentially better experience. Some guests find that the advertised room features, such as balconies, do not match their actual accommodations, highlighting the need for clear communication with the hotel prior to arrival. Overall, while the charm of the inn's architecture and comfortable beds stand out as positives, attention to detail and maintenance could enhance the overall guest experience.

Beds

Despite a mix of complimentary and critical remarks, the comfortable beds and soft sheets are frequently acknowledged highlights by guests seeking a restful stay.

The dining area's cleanliness also received some criticism, indicating inconsistency in the hotel's upkeep. Despite the spotless rooms, some found the facility outdated, and issues with soundproofing were noted due to thin walls.
