The Inn at Weathersfield

We (two couples) booked the Inn midweek in later October hoping for a quiet relaxing fall foliage experience even if the peak had passed. Mission fully accomplished. Even past peak, the foliage was enjoyable. Breakfasts and our one dinner in the beautiful dining area at the Inn were great. Ivan, Petar and families were friendly and engaging hosts. The rooms had very individual sizes, shapes and furnishings but both had modern updated bathrooms. Only one or two of the other rooms were occupied during our stay so we can’t comment on noise levels, etc. during full occupancy weekends. Be sure to visit the nearby town of Woodstock.

Wonderful experience. Delicious food, with great coffee and fresh cream every morning. I had a very cozy stay at this wonderfully historic inn. The rooms are thoughtfully prepared and the staff are friendly and accommodating. I would recommend the Inn at Weathersfield to others, and would be happy to come back again.

What a delightful stay. Arriving at 4pm, my wife (not normally the drinker in the family) shuffled us off to the delightful bar near the kitchen where my namesake Peter made us Cosmos and Manhattans. Both were the best ever, my Manhattan with exotic cherries. Lovely, quaint, comfortable and spotless room, and a beautiful and clean Inn, inside and out. Fall colors peaking, so we were on 3 days of heaven.

This was our third visit to The Inn at Weathersfield and even with new owners and staff the feeling was the same warm, cozy, delicious destination as before. It's a charming place with a first class kitchen so what's not to love. Surprisingly, the dining room was hopping on a rainy Sunday night, yet we waited for nothing and were well served. Try it, you'll keep coming back as we did!

When we arrived at the Inn we were given a brief tour and some historical information. While this was very informative we would have rather gone straight to our room as we had a long journey. The owners may want to rethink this and provide this on the first morning. My girl friend knew the previous owners and there was no information that this was under new ownership which most locations of this type announce on the website somewhere. Our room was located on the second floor and the only way up there was a steep narrow spiral staircase. Anyone with a disability or who has round getting a would want a room on the ground floor. We were disappointed to find out that our electric fireplace was not working and the owner said they were going to have an electrician repair it.Not done during our stay. As the weather was chilly it would have be nice to have this amenity. We went outside to sit on the porch and when we turned on the gas for the firepit that wasn’t working either. A little basic quality control would have solved both issues quickly. Our dinner there the first night was excellent and there was live music. Our breakfast the next morning was average , nothing special. They have a coffe station set up for self service and both mornings we had to request cream as there was none set up. When we requested cream, instead of bringing a small pitcher to the table, the waitress brought the pitcher from the coffe station and told us she had to return it .There also was no option for decaf. We both had the pancakes. Our dinner the second night was disappointing. My girlfriend ordered the ravioli with fennel balsamic pumpkin seeds and arugula. The presentation was five small raviolis buried in the arugula. I ordered the tomato fennel soup and it was like plain spaghetti sauce. I also ordered the shrimp add on and was presented with 3 small shrimp. For the price the portion was paltry. I mentioned it to the waitress and she brought the owner and he offers me a 50% discount on the shrimp only after trying to justify the price. On a positive note, the special cocktails we ordered were first rate.. This is a beautiful Inn in a prime location in the fall. The owners and staff that we talked to seem to only be focused on the weddings they have and not the everyday guests. Sadly we will not be returning.
