Reviews
"We stayed at the Grafton Inn for a wedding weekend that was held there."
Definitely talk with Mike before arriving.
The hotel has a beautiful exterior. The bed was extremely comfortable.
There is no "front desk", you can feel the age of the room, the TV took some tinkering to get it working, and BRING YOUR EARPLUGS the church bells across the street ring out the hour.

Worst place on earth!!! If you like mold then this is your place!!! Mold all over air conditioner, running down wall and on carpet. Don’t ever send family or friends to this hotel. Lock box to get your key, our key was missing from lock box and no staff on premises t tell us what to do. no security. Your door could be kicked in and no one would hear you screaming for help. No black out curtains so the bright street light shine in windows, loud street traffic all night long. When you call them to complain they don’t answer phone and then they ghost you. Impossible to get a refund. It’s not good if you have problems with allergies.

Please note that the reviews on here that mention good service, the restaurant, or simply any individual are most likely for another Grafton Inn, the one in Vermont. This one- the one in Massachusetts- is all but abandoned. There is no desk. The restaurant is shuttered and in shambles. The fire extinguishers in the building have not been inspected in years. The phone number for the Inn is out of service. The manager’s phone number that is posted is not in service. The WiFi does not work.We went to check in and there was not a soul. Hours later- after we literally scoured the Inn- we got a text for check in. Even if we had stuck around and been able to check in, it is an unsafe environment. I am sure the building can not be up to code given the status as well as the old fire extinguishers and lack of lock on the door.

We stayed at the Grafton Inn for a wedding weekend that was held there. We experienced the hospitality of the entire staff for breakfast, lunch, and dinner multiple times and at each time, the staff was amazing and the food was delicious. From the welcoming hostess, to the lively bartender, and the ever present with a smile wait staff who took care of our every need (especially Sara and Lisa!), we enjoyed all of our interactions that they served up for us. The variety of food we enjoyed at the Phelps Barn and the Tavern was unique, delicious, and always on point. The chefs and cook staff should be commended for their skills not only on the exceptional food they prepared but the speed and manner in which they provided it. All things considered, it was an outstanding experience in dining and hospitality from a collaboration of professionals set in the most charming locale.
THANK-YOU!
