Been a guest since 2004 on a regular basis. The entire facility has been a home away from home and the people are exceptional. Using the VIP Lounge for dinner is wonderful; the food great. 'Ginger' makes the experience very enjoyable and I look forward to a great meal and good night sleep every week. I've been coming weekly since... More

Not a typical chain hotel. The open indoor atmosphere is awesome. Our breakfast waitress, Sandy, gave us excellent service. Kids eat free. Awesome buffet! More

Regularly stay at the Sturbridge Host Hotel. I like it immensely. There is a certain charm about the hotel that is better than your standard box hotel. The people at the front desk are always warm and welcoming. They try to get to know you personally and always work to make your stay enjoyable. The VIP lounge (in the hotel)... More

Beautiful setting for rooms with view of lake, very hospitable room staff including mails and very gracious and effective wait staff, especially Melissa and Sandy in Greenhouse Restaurant on site of Sturbridge Host Inn. Charming pool for exercise. All in all, outstanding for value, comfort, and atmosphere. JP More

Thank you for your kind comments. We are delighted that you enjoyed some of the many amenities we offer. And summer-time opens up a whole new array of outdoor activities. We hope you will choose to stay with us again if the opportunity arises and you are back in the states. Thanks again. More

Other than the wavy mattress, this hotel worked out quite well for our needs. We needed a place to stay for a family funeral in the area. The breakfast buffet in the hotel was quick and efficient. The place was a bit dated, but was close to everything. Our five year old enjoyed the pool. More

Thank you for choosing to stay with us during this difficult time for you and your family. As we are centrally located off of major highways (I90 / I84) our location lends itself well to travellers from many locations. Set back on a lake, we can offer a serene setting, yet close by to all you could want. Our sympathy... More

Stayed here as part of a tour and it was the worst hotel on the tour. The first room I was given had an aircon vent with no vent- so I could see straight into the roof. It was also surrounded with mould and the roof looked like it would fall in at any minute as a result. Got a... More

Well, we were back again to meet up as a family and make our way down to Nantucket, and yet again, the Sturbridge Host did not disappoint! This year, it was abnormally warm in New England and the lakeside setting was especially perfect! We had a great time at the Oxhead Tavern, as well. The staff were courteous to us... More

This hotel is dated but we still love to stay here. The only complaint I have is that the pool is cold and there are always tons of kids in the hot tub even though its says 16 and over. My husband and I have done the romantic get away package which we find to be a great deal. We... More

Thank you for making us your home away from home. We have since repaired the pool heater and it's a balmy 84 degrees. Next time, please ask the Manager On Duty if you can use the hot tub after 9pm. I know they'll let you use it! Thank you. More

After reading all reviews before staying at the Host, I must agree that this is a good hotel for families to get away for a night. Our room was clean, and spacious, and having a room that opened to the pool was perfect for kids. The hotel is definitely dated and could use a facelift! The staff at front desk,... More
