The Hartness House

The Hartness House is a charming and quaint property taking you back in time with all of the modern amenities to make you comfortable. The staff went above and beyond to make our stay wonderful. A sincere thank you to Nina who helped with surprise birthday decorations and a few extra accommodations to make a happy birthday even more special. We enjoyed our short stay and would love to visit again!

Such a unique hotel. Everything up to date and clean. Check in and check out via iPad was super easy and convenient.

The accommodations were good but there was no person to ask questions. Checking in and out was all electronic, which is OK if there are no questions.

Staying in a clean hotel/rental is top priority for me and my family. Our room (35) in the back rooms of the Hartness house was impeccably clean. Pay attention to your booking, there are many rooms not in the original house where we stayed and I would highly recommend. You still have access to the charming main house, with its rich history, and if you’re lucky, a tour down underneath the house to check out James Hartness’s private quarters, telescope and small museum honoring him and many inventors from his time. Breakfast was just what we needed before heading to Okemo to ski, only a 25 minute drive. The small town of Springfield is very charming as well, with food options and remnants of an industrial era. The Hartness House is definitely worth a stay

We stayed for 2 nights in the mansion, it was super clean and the staff was very friendly. It’s quiet so it was very easy to feel relax. The bar was great! The rooms are big and very clean, we love the history of the house. Overall a good experience

I was looking for an overnight stay after skiing with my adult children and visiting family nearby. We were limited because of only needing a one night stay when Hartness House popped up on the internet. Was a sweet surprise because this place was a gem. I was getting in late so the area was dark but then we pulled up to the mansion being well lit with beautiful string lights. They give you a door code to the front door and to your room so no assistance was needed at the late hour. The inside was wonderful with its old world phones, victrola, grand staircase and all the comfy seating areas on the first floor. The next morning we woke to coffee and scones in the living space and sat in the window seats. Upon reading about the Hartness history and the tunnels underneath we were able to get an unexpected tour of the tunnels, office and lab underneath. The history was really something. The woman was very informative and knew all the facts about the space under the mansion and the family and took a lot of pride telling us about it.

Beautiful unique old world charm with renovated rooms. Nice to stay in a place with history and charm. Very clean old school but in the coolest of ways.

The staff is really nice and helpful. There is a lot of history to the property and the staff manager gives very insightful tours. The property is clean and comfortable. Very easy to check in and out.

We booked our fairly last-minute overnight and were blown away. The kids have instructed that we’ll need to come back every year!
