My guess is that they spend more money on marketing, and possibly paying folks to remove bad reviews, than they do on maintaining the property. The property is run down with a mud parking lot. The single pane glass window in our bedroom was less than 50’ from the rural road, so you hear every vehicle. There was little traffic at night, but by 5:30 AM there was a steady stream of folks going to work. No independent temperature control in the rooms. They have ancient, noisy radiators. Our room heated up to about 78 each night, forcing you to open the windows…making traffic noise worst. Our "Superior" room was tiny. No place to put a suitcase, except inside the closet, on the floor. No TV in the room. Only two outlets. A tiny bathroom like some travel trailers. The "Lounge" and the restaurant never opened during our stay. We received an email AFTER the cancellation deadline, telling us they would not be open Sunday – Wednesday, but saying there were dining options in town… they fail to mention the entire town is closed Sunday – Wednesday, and we had to drive to the next town to find food or get a drink. The door to the back deck (pictured in their ads) remained locked during our stay...so no firepit or relaxing with a drink. Staff was somewhere between indifferent and rude. On check in, they wrote it on the guest booking form...a terrible security risk. The hotel was so bad we checked out a day early, knowing we would lose our money for the third night.

I love the area but would not choose the Inn to stay at again. VERY limited handicapped parking and no access to pub or game room (including the only TV on the property) as a result of my handicap. Exceptionally quiet and beautiful views tho.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Franconia Inn. It was our home base while we explored Vermont, Franconia Notch State Park, and the Kancamagus Hwy. The Inn was charming, with nice spaces on the first floor to relax and to have breakfast. We enjoyed dinner at the casual pub downstairs twice - good variety and quality of food. We interacted with the owners several times during our stay (outside, in the pub, and serving breakfast, etc). They seemed dedicated to the Inn and invested in making improvements. The common spaces were all in good shape and it appeared there were some recent updates (such as to dining area). Our room itself was fine, but could use some updates (mostly decor, and the showerhead) soon to bring it up to the level of the rest of the inn.

The Inn is in one of the most beautiful areas of the White Mountains and is near to all they have to offer. The staff provided good suggestions for dinner since the restaurant and bar were closed (mid-week). The Inn itself could use a deep cleaning-rugs, pool, pool area and chairs.

Quaint old inn in the heart of Franconia Notch area. Location could not have been better! Comfortable sitting areas throughout the main floor. Comfortable bed but bathroom could use some work. Original shower head didn’t work and moveable shower head was difficult to adjust for height. Everything just seemed a little worn in need of some TLC. At check in, staff made a big deal about the fact that I booked through Expedia. The tone made me feel a little unwelcome. Asked for recommendations on hiking trails (I had already done research online but was looking for some local insight). They simply handed me a copy of a page available on the hotel website. Our 2nd night, we decided to have dinner at the pub downstairs. There was a small event upstairs in the breakfast dining area. Apparently, they did not have adequate staff to accommodate both an event and diners in the pub. We ordered 2 burgers and a cup of soup. The soup came out immediately but then we waited more than an hour for the burgers. The burgers were cold, appeared to have been reheated, and they forgot the bacon on one burger. They comped us for one burger and offered us a free dessert but we didn’t want to wait another hour! If you didn’t have staff, should have closed the pub or not agreed to the event. Continental breakfast without any hot food all three mornings. Presentation was nice but quality and options were what I’d expect at a chain hotel. Breakfast started at 7:30 (very late for hiking)

Very cosy and charming hotel nestled in the woods, a nice antidote to chain hotels. Lovely vibe but could use a refresh in the basement area. Beautiful porch and grounds. Friendly staff and the horses are fun to see. Comfortable beds however I found the air conditioning to be on the loud side. We loved staying here.
