I stayed at Suzanna`s B&B a year ago when I visited Great Barrington for a friend`s wedding. Being my first time in the USA this was the perfect place to show me the hospitality and charm of the American nation. Suzanna took care of me for 4 days and made me feel welcome and at home ( she even understood... More

. . . for its comfortable and beautifully decorated rooms, the delicious breakfasts and especially the hostess, Susanna, who is gracious and accommodating. She had great recommendations for where to eat, hear music, take walks -- you name it. One weekend we had guests for our daughter's wedding stay there and they all raved about it as well!

This was our first time staying with Susanna and we were thrilled! The inn is located off the main roads and it is a beautiful surrounding that is so peaceful. It is a great location for going anywhere in the Berkshires . We stayed in the lilac room which was more of a suite. A living room with great art... More

Acorn's Hope and innkeeper Susanna Abarbanel create the perfect place for experiencing the Berkshires. The inn is charming and Susanna's breakfasts are terrific - always inventive and delicious. I've never had the same breakfast twice after several visits. Can't imagine staying anywhere else.

My wife and I throughly enjoyed our stays and Susanna's travel maps and touring advice were "spot on" and led to some great adventures in the Berkshires. My advice to you if you are... More

This b&b is the best value you're likely to find in the Berkshires. The house is located on a quiet street outside of Great Barrington, close to all attractions but with the feel of the country. Nuthatches and goldfinches eat right outside the dining room window as you enjoy delicious home cooked breakfasts. The hostess is a sweet and helpful... More

Susanna, the owner, is charming. The accommodations were excellent, including the breakfast. Susanna is very engaging and makes you feel right at home. Loved the wooden swing tied to a tree in the beatufiul backyard. We look forward to going back again next year!!

Finally, my I have found a cure for the "what lodging problem will we have to contend with" anxiety I have felt when visiting Great Barrington, MA., which I do often. Yes, I've had some bad experiences with area hotels over the years. This past weekend my husband and I stayed at Acorn's Hope Bed and Breakfast. My first inkling... More
