Reviews for The Inn in Westport in Westport, NY
We've never stayed at an inn before, and we may be spoiled forever now. This one has a book theme! The lobby is a lending... library/antique bookstore. The 9 guest rooms are named after authors (and are all decorated in different styles. ) We arestaying in the Tolkien room. Add Alexandra's fresh breakfast on the porch, and our room windows look out over Lake Champlain! Read more
AMAZING PLACE TO STAY!!!! I can't say enough about this quaint Inn in Westport! Great location with excellent view of Lake... Champlain. Super friendly and accommodating staff. We will DEFINITELY be back!!! :) Read more
Well maintained old house, in terms of decorations. Very nice library on first floor. House needs some repair to level the... floor, to make doors work better, and to seal the window. Old houses always have their charm and characters. Mattress is notvery comfortable. Blanket is old. TV is way too small. Owner is nice. Price is not cheap for everything this inn provides. But it?s a tiny town and it?s probably the most decent inn you can find there. Read more
The Inn at Westport is a quaint hideaway gem! Alexandra & Anthony pride themselves in creating an experience that is nothing but... relaxing. The rooms are decorated similar to the whimsy of the author the rooms are named by. My husband & I stayed in theJ.R.R. Tolkien room. It was decorated as if you would see the artwork and bedding in one of the houses in the Shire. In thebreakfast nook, you have a perfect view of Ballard Park as well as the mountains & Lake Champlain. Alexandra loves to talkabout the history of the inn, the town, and the area. She truly is knowledgeable, and was nothing but enthusiastic when speakingof the history of: the inn, the town, and the surrounding area. Her love for: books, incantations, & art are all represented intheir own unique way. Again, her enthusiasm for what she does is represented throughout the inn. I couldn't help but get excitedevery time I talked to her. Again, a hidden gem that shouldn't be missed! -Marie Z. Read more
My family of 3 stayed here for two nights in room 8. The building is old and has lots of character. Each room is unique and... beautifully decorated. Our room had an AC unit and TV, both of which worked great. The owner was so kind and welcoming. Wethoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this place! Read more
We so enjoyed our stay at this lovely inn! We were working our way south along Lake Champlain on a multi-day bike trip, and were... lucky enough to have booked here for one of our nights on the road. Our room was beautiful and spacious and had a view of thelake. The inn is perfectly located across the road from the lake, with a pretty park in between - we took advantage of theopportunity to get in the water. The only issue we encountered led to probably the best part of our stay - it was a Mondaynight in July, and there were no restaurants open within walking distance (and we were not up for more biking miles to getdinner!). Without missing a beat, the innkeepers offered to drive us to the grocery store to get food. We ended up having alovely supper by the windows looking out at the lake - it was perfect. We so appreciated the innkeepers' over the tophospitality! Oh, and the other wonderful thing about the inn is that the first floor lounge doubles as a bookstore - heaven foreveryone from an avid reader to the casual browser! Highly recommend, and many thanks to the Inn at Westport! Read more
This place is truly a hidden gem. I was doing Locums emergency medicine work upstate and my agency book a room for me to stay... here prior to my shifts and during my days off. The owners were kind, knowledgeable and accommodating. They truly went the extramile to ensure an excellent stay. The rooms were clean and comfortable and was just what I needed to recharge. There is a uniquesmall library/bookstore downstairs that adds a nice little charm to the place. Lake Champlain is walking distance from the inn,there are surrounding nature trails to hike by the stream side. I stayed alone, but I would definitely go back with my familyfor a nice upstate weekend! Read more
The Inn was nice as far as the room and amenities. Everything we would have needed was available for us to use. My complaint is... that I did not get any sleep due to the constant truck traffic all night long, as the Inn sits literally next to the road. Theroom was also very bright at night due to the large windows next to the street and the hall lights are left on all night. Therooms are very expensive (over $200) considering that the Inn is located in an area where we couldn?t get gas, shop, and we hadto walk 15 mins to a restaurant to eat, which was also well overpriced, so I would suggest eating before you get there. They dooffer breakfast for an additional $20 each, but we declined. Read more
