Swiss Farm Inn — Hotel in Pittsfield

Decided, with family members, to find a place where we could all go to view the beautiful fall colours. We lucked out and found the Swiss Farm Inn where we were able to book the entire place. There were 26 of us so it was difficult finding the right accommodation. The Swiss Farm Inn was perfect. It Was like being at home, but better- no cleaning. Each room had a private bath. The rooms were rustic, cozy and charming. We enjoyed hanging out in the large living room, with its stone fireplace, plenty of soft cushy sofas, and large screen TV. Felt like someone invited us into their home. There is a rule about removing shoes, but I loved it. I ask people to do that in my home so why not here. Keeps the floors clean so you can walk in your socks or bare feet and leave the dirt outside. About food: it's not a B&B but you can make arrangements if you want anything catered. They have a commercial kitchen, which is fantastic, so we were able to make coffee, and some simple meals but it can be as involved as you want. Also, there are 2 great markets 2 minutes away to buy pre-made food. This was definitely a great find. We look forward to making this an annual event. Oh, Inyoung our host, was so very helpful in many ways. We...

Once an operational Inn, Swiss Farm Inn is now strictly a rental property. It worked out great for us because we had people driving and flying in from all over the for a family reunion so we needed a place where a LOT of people could stay. There is a big commercial kitchen you can use while you stay there which is great when feeding 50 people! I couldn't tell you what the rooms are like because I never saw them, which leads me to my only complaint: they don't allow dogs. We wanted to bring my dog, so my parents & I stayed separately of the entire group (at the Long Trail Inn that does allow dogs). What do they have against dogs? This is a giant place with a nice big yard, there's zero reason he shouldn't have been allowed there. We couldn't even do stuff inside cuz one of us had to always stay outside with him (thankfully it's summer so people were outside anyway). I would have been happy to pay a refundable pet deposit, because I have a hypoallergenic non-shedding small dog, and I'm confident he wouldn't have been a problem. That said, if you're looking to rent out a large house for a lot of people (as long as you don't have a dog) I highly...

Drive past this place all the time and finally had a chance to try the "World's Best Breakfast". We ended up going on Sunday of Labor Day weekend. It was super busy when we arrived and we had a 20 minute wait. The portions were gigantic. I had the egg scramble special and my husband had the hash. He said the hash was amazing. My eggs fresh and fluffy and the veggies mixed in were perfectly cooked. In addition to that, they give you 2 slices of perfectly cooked bacon, a thick slice of toast, a large portion of perfectly seasoned homefries and a mini blueberry muffin. No matter what you order! Coffee and OJ are self serve which was great when it was so busy. Staff was very friendly and once we got our orders in, our food came out pretty fast. Prices were great considering the huge amount of food you get (you won't need lunch!)Definitely ranks as worlds best breakfast. Would like to try again on a...
