The heating issue made it quite uncomfortable.

the good, the bad, and the unexpected

This charming property instantly felt like home thanks to the warm hospitality and delightful breakfast provided by the owner and his daughter. With friendly pets around and scenic trails nearby, it was the country experience I craved. Expect antique decor and a lively, welcoming atmosphere. Truly a hidden gem worth revisiting!

Check if the heater is working before settling in, as it can unexpectedly stop during the night.

A cozy gem in the Catskills

The Colonial Inn welcomed us with warmth and its charming antique decor. Breakfast felt like home, and chatting with Steve, the owner, made our stay richer.

However, the rooms were quite cold, and the heating seemed inadequate. We also noticed some areas required maintenance, which affected the overall charm.

So I stayed in a Family Double Room for a night. The decor is wild—definitely gives off that old-school charm with lots of antiques everywhere. The bed was super comfy, but the room itself felt a bit neglected, like it could use some serious TLC. You’ve got old wallpaper, and yeah, it was clean, but it just felt dated. Also, heard a lot of noise from the hall, which was a little annoying. Still, the vibe of the place is kind of cool, especially if you like quirky spots.

Charming antique decor

Couples seeking a cozy, unique stay

The owner Steve and his daughter were really good hosts, making us feel like family during our stay. We enjoyed a very warm breakfast cooked to order that really set the tone for a lovely day.

It wasn’t exactly budget-friendly , but given the ambiance and service, it felt acceptable.

I loved the antique decor, it was like stepping into a time capsule. The location in the Catskill Mountains is breathtaking, providing a peaceful retreat far from the hustle and bustle. Close proximity to great walking trails made exploring easy and enjoyable.

The room could definitely use some updates, as it felt a bit neglected overall.

A Hidden Gem Worth Every Bite!

I can't recommend this place enough! The buffet is to die for—fantastic ribs and pasta. The bread pudding is unforgettable. An early morning surprise was meeting a friendly dog in the dining area, which added a cozy touch. I'd suggest arriving early to enjoy the ambiance. Overall, it’s a delightful spot!

The antique decor brings a sense of history and charm that makes you feel like you’ve stepped back in time. Cozy sitting areas, including a porch with comfortable chairs, invite you to relax and enjoy the peaceful surroundings.

The stairs can be a workout since there's no elevator in this historic building. Some areas could use a bit of upkeep, and the lack of modern amenities like Wi-Fi may not cater to everyone's needs, especially if you're used to more convenient access.

My stay at Colonial Inn was enchanting. The historic charm and eclectic decor brought the essence of old-world artistry alive. Breakfast felt like home, served family-style with good conversation. A minor maintenance issue with the heating added a touch of authenticity but didn’t detract from my overall experience.

The antique pieces around the place were truly charming, and our family loved exploring them. We had a cozy stay with our dog and enjoyed homemade breakfasts that felt like a warm hug. The skiing in the nearby Belleayre Ski Center was a hit too!

My kids wished for better maintenance in the rooms.

The Colonial Inn felt like stepping into an antique wonderland, with beautiful real furniture and an abundance of fascinating decor. I adored the historical charm, which made the experience intimate and enchanting.

Better heating system for colder nights, please.
