Many small complaints, but the main problem that caused me to give a bad review is safety. The guest room doors only have one lock, which is on the handle and accessible from the outside. Anyone with a key (which could be anyone because the keys were easily accessible at the front desk) could enter the room. There was not an additional deadbolt or latch on the door. There also wasn’t a peephole in the door. This is unacceptable and made me feel very unsafe. I’ve never seen a hotel room door with just the lock on the door handle.

Outside needs attention
Dead leaves in yard and lot
Asphalt path leading to parking .. very uneven raised /bulging areas …a challenge to navigate… could cause someone to fall.
We enjoyed our stay at the Whitlock (part of the same management as the Constance). Good restaurants easy to walk to. Quiet. Only thing we missed was a comfortable armchair in the bedroom.
The staff on duty were very professional and pleasant. The young man on duty on Thursday afternoon and evening was very attentive and capably answered my question about the Shakespeare theater. My room was very clean and modern. The slight problem with the bed footboard did not effect my comfort or the function of the bed.
Very convenient location for walking to Lenox's restaurants. Generally easy parking. Great continental breakfast. Lovely staff.
Bed could have been firmer. Walls are a little thin.
I have previously "reviewed" the stay but I will again provide information that may improve the process.
I booked thru Expedia what I thought ( and Expedia probably thought was a stay at The Constance Hotel in Lenox. All communication from Expedia ( including pictures of The Constance) indicated I had a valid registration. The day before our first night's reservation I received a text from the Hotel. I did not question why the text requested to check-in at The Whitlock Hotel (I assumed it was for efficiency, as we have stayed at The Constance and it is not staffed 24/7). The two Hotels are within walking distance. At check-in the Hotel staff gave us a key for a room at The Whitlock. Immediately I asked for a refund. The Hotel clerk explained the process between Expedia and The Lenox Collection-- 3 hotels under one management was flawed. She blamed Expedia and after a few calls "found" a room at The Constance which resolved the issue. No where in any Expedia communication ( 4 emails) does it indicate we may not be staying where we believed we booked. In the future I will not be using Expedia to book any travel. BTW, After the resolution, I believe we stayed in the best room at The Constance and had a lovely stay with the exception of being awakened by a false fire alarm. Please do not ask again for a "survey" response as this is my second time responding...... We had a very nice stay, and next time will need to book directly not thru an intermediary.

Location is the best feature of the Whitlock and the staff is terrific. Very friendly, helpful and welcoming staff.The room was a great size for 2 friends.The ease of parking is also stellar.
Beautiful inn. Nice staff. Good breakfast. Our room was very nice with a comfortable bed. However there was a bit of a musty odor in the room. Not overpowering, but each time we walked into the room it was noticeable.
We spent a couple of hours lounging on the beautiful porch. We will definitely be back to this beautiful inn and town.

Love the centrally location.
Young inexperienced staff was distracted, dismissive
Shower in my room was rusty
I’ve stayed at the Whitlock 4 times. This was my most disappointing experience

It’s fine. We stayed at the Dewey property. Check in is a a different property and completely underwhelming. The Dewey Inn is a neat old building but a little tired.
I liked the old world decor and the living room area to chill out in

Lovely stay
Lovely stay for Tanglewood. Room 106 was very comfortable. It felt like its own private suite. It was very spacious and quiet. The only real downside was the bathtub. It’s beautiful to look at but it needs to have an update. I have no idea how anyone with mobility issues could manage it. Other than that, all was great! Staff was friendly and helpful and we loved that front porch!
Lovely stay. Comfortable bed. Large room. Adequate breakfast (no hot options that we saw, but plenty of other yummy items to choose from) with lots of spaces to enjoy it. Just a few steps outside the main street area of of Lennox. Plenty of good restaurants and shops nearby. We attended an excellent outside show at the Shakespeare, which is just down the road, and hiked Mt Lenox as well. Tanglewood is outside of town too. Lots to do. Beautiful area. Great stay.

All good. Must commend a member of your staff who was being screamed at by a guest as we were checking out. Your front desk person was patient and professional. And the hotel guest if she had read the letter you give when checking in guests would have had all the information she was screaming about. We will be back
