We (a couple and 10 year old) stayed for two nights at the Wainwright Inn and had a wonderful time. Marja and Robert are amazing hosts - they truly love what they do and it shows. The Inn itself is beautiful - the historic details and feel is authentic and we felt very much at home. The breakfast by Marja... More

We stayed two nights in February during the blizzard of 2013. Walking distance to town and restaurants. Robert and Marja were extremely hospitable and gave us many suggestion of where to go and where to eat. Easy drive to Butternut. Very good breakfast. We frequent B&B's whenever possible and found Wainwrights an outstanding option in the Berkshires. Excellent living room... More

My wife gets five stars for arranging our stay at the Wainwright Inn. Having literally traveled around the world and over a hundred visits to Europe, I found that Marja, Robert and Daryl set the top bar for excellence of hospitality. Thanks to Daryl's excellent and generous chef's skills, I am still working off a few extra pounds. Owners Marja... More

We spent two nights at this pleasant B & B. We were warmly greeted by the innkeeper who provided lots of local information. Breakfasts were excellent and we were always offered more to eat! It's only a five minute walk from the centre of Great Barrington with its restaurants and shops. A perfect location for exploring the area.

We have stayed at the Wainwright Inn for the past six Labor Day Weekends, and it is truly a visit to see old friends. Robert & Marja are excellent hosts, and think of all of the little things one might need. Daryl has cooked all over the world, and we as guests are so lucky to be sampling his delicious... More

We stayed four nights at the Wainwright Inn and had a great experience. This was our third trip to Great Barrington, but our first to the inn. Marja and Robert were wonderful hosts, charming, friendly and fun, and made us feel very much at home. Darrell's breakfast each morning was delicious, a new creation each morning, beautifully presented in a... More

My wife and I recently stayed at the Wainwright Inn. It caught my eye because I am a wheelchair user and their ad said they are wheelchair accessible - and indeed they are! This lovely old inn with Colonial origins is well ramped and well lit at night. The doorways are more than wide enough. The accessible room has sufficient... More

My partner and I stayed at the inn in July, and had a lovely time. The area is beautiful, and the inn was very pleasant. Marja was very helpful with recommendations for where to eat and what to do, provided us with towels for the lake, we even got a birthday balloon in our room :) Highly recommend the area... More

My husband and I recently stayed at the Wainwright Inn. Our stay was very pleasant. Marja, the Innkeeper, along with her husband Robert and chef, Daryl, made our visit most enjoyable. The entire Inn is immaculate and the food was delicious. We are happy ro recommend such a lovely place.
