If you are in the vicinity of Ashland, this is the place to be. The breakfast is bare bones (but included!) and the staff, rooms, and ground are wonderful!

We are happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us! Our breakfast offerings are simple - we do include the essentials of quality coffee and tea, fresh assorted bagels, greek yogurt and fresh fruit. We hope to see you again in the near future!
I liked the unique country prints that were used for artwork throughout the inn. We also liked the furniture, nice pieces not cheap chain hotel pieces. Very comfortable and absolutely spotless! Would definitely go back & recommend to friends and family.

This lodge-like property is on a beautiful reservoir and features a continental breakfast with the chance to sit outside and enjoy nature. Our check-in experience was not great, but the manager Amy stepped up to address our concerns and turned around the experience. Strongly recommend as an alternative to generic hotels.

Very quiet, tucked away spot. The inn is perhaps a bit dated but lovely and comfortable and would be even nicer in the summer, vs February! It’s right on a lake and very wooded. Service was excellent, decent complimentary continental breakfast. Recommended.

Beautiful location along a reservoir with woods/trails.
Lovely cozy fireplace and lobby area. Fresh fruit for breakfast and cordial/helpful staff. Spacious room and bathroom. Mini fridge
and microwave in the room I would come here again. Grounds must be even more stunning in spring, summer or winter.

There is no beach or a beach present. All wooded area, terrible landscape work also. location is in isolated area, back woods and hard to find. No signs to direct to motel, and had to call for someone to follow us to motel area. Price of this place was not worth the visit. very poor breakfast, price of room not worth the stay. Only area looking nice was lobby as shown, of the center itself for previous conventions, etc. Motel was complete opposite...................

Good Afternoon Richard,
I am sorry to hear that your stay at the hotel was not up to your expectations. We appreciate you taking the time to provide us with such candid feedback. This is very disappointing to hear, but we hope you give us another chance to make it up to you. Please let me know if you want to discuss personally.
The primary thing you're paying for in a hotel is a good night's sleep. After getting in late, I was awakened by the alarm at 6 AM. Housekeeping should have turned off the alarm when they cleaned room. But they didn't get that right either; soap had already been unwrapped and towel was used (not on rack). Finally, the hotel has only one luggage cart, which for a place of this size is ridiculous. When I asked the manager where I could find one, she was disinterested in helping and didn't feign much concern when I mentioned the alarm either.

This hotel is a gem. We stayed here while visiting our son who lives in Boston, but works near this area. We were visiting from AZ. We enjoyed a hike by the lake on our first day there. The next day we went to a lake near by and rented some kayaks. It was wonderful to be in the water. The hotel is quiet, clean, the staff was very attentive to our needs, gave us excellent recommendations, and the breakfast was quite decent. Fresh fruits, yogurt, granola bars, cereal, bagels, and fresh coffee! We were very happy with our stay.

The hotel is located on lovely grounds. There is complimentary breakfast and the staff is very accommodating. The common area of the hotel is spacious and comfortable with a pretty outdoor deck. The Warren Farm is across the road where trails are available to hike. The Warren Hotel is a nice alternative when staying in the Ashland area.

The young lady at the front desk recommended a fun place in Rhode Island that made our trip very memorable. I wish I could remember her name. She was extremely courteous and helpful. All the staff was wonderful.

Hi Peter!
I'm glad we could assist you with some local recommendations! We hope you see you in the near future!
The conference center is beautiful, wooded, lake-front. The lobby is gorgeous. Continental breakfast is just enough to satisfy. Loved the ceiling height doors. One bed was awful. I clung to side as my husband sank into crater. My college student son is used to bad beds.

Disliked: Room comfort
For the amount of money the hotel was not worth it. The bed was rock solid which made it difficult for us to sleep. We also woke up sore. The room was clean but nothing special. Most of the staff was ok but not overly friendly. Too pricey. A little challenging to get to the hotel from the highway.

Мery, very nice and clean hotel. Very quiet, cozy. Comfortable beds.
The area is very quiet. The hotel is in the wood on a reservoir - which is nice but not very easy to find. The road is a little dark, and hotel is all the way in the back in the woods down what looks like a service road.
The only food option around seemed to be pizza.
We were told breakfast was available from 7 am, but there actually was food at 6: bagels, cereals, fruit.
Overall good experience.

I selected this hotel for a business trip around Boston. I was just there for one night. It is "far outside" and typical not a hotel for just an overnight for a business trip. But I loved the large room, the nice fitness facility and the peace around. Service was exceptional friendly and personal. Someone you typical don't have in a chain hotel.

Dear Guest, Our location is definitely one of the things we are very proud of about our hotel. We are so lucky to have a property in the heart of MetroWest with convenient access to the Greater Boston Suburbs. We hope you choose us again for a longer stay in the Boston area!
Overall the warren center and inn is set in a beautiful natural area in Ashland ma with the reservoir right behind the inn. It is a beautiful area to go for a nice walk. The rooms and main are for an included breakfast are all very clean and nice. The manager is very attentive to the guests. However, one of her check in staff members is not very nice. She should not be in the customer service industry because was very abrupt to us after driving over 20 hours to get here for the birth of our granddaughter and she would not allow us to get into a room an hour early to freshen up before we went to the hospital to see our new granddaughter. We sent notes in advance to the inn to see if it would be possible and the inn had said yes. The manager was very apologic about how nasty her staff member was too us and provided us with a note and chocolate which was a nice touch, but we would have preferred to have been able to get into the room to freshen up to meet our new granddaughter. Her staff member was totally inflexible and told us to sit in their waiting area until the official check in time which made my husband I very upset. No manager was on duty at the time, so we left and went to the hospital. It was the manner in which she talked to us and our unique situation that made us so upset. We would consider staying there again but there are other places for the same price that might treat you better.

I was pleasantly surprised with the Inn. The lady at the service desk was efficient and friendly. She provided me names of taxi services as I wanted to hire one. My room was very nice and had a small fridge and a coffee maker with the fixings. Juice and breakfast was provided-self serve. The surrounding area was country and historic! The only thing I would change is that maybe they could provide a small lounge or alcohol service to your room. You could bring your own but a room service bar would have been nice or a lounge where you could meet other people. I would go there again!
