Six in our group of well -seasoned travelers. All of us are in early to mid sixties. We were looking for a nice place to stay and eat in conjunction with seeing a local theater group doing a production of " My Fair Lady." We stayed at the Publick House the weekend of June 26th. 2009. The road house has... more

Since we were traverlling with our dog we stayed in the Motor Lodge section of the property. Case goods were a bit tired. I was told they are currently rennovating. The rooms were clean and quiet and included homemade baked goods continental breakfast. Ala carte and banquet resturant facilities are alos in the complex. Very good room rates. more

We have been travelling to the USA for the 23rd time and trvelled extensively for the last 20 years and have stayed in a few motels and hotels in that time. The Publick House is in a historical place. Nice oldy worldy building. Living areas are nothing exceptional - if anything could do with refreshing. Breakfast service was below par... more

We were there with a group and had been promised that Wi-Fi would be available in the rooms. I had to contact the office two or three times per day and ask them to reboot the server, and there were a couple of times that even that did not restore Internet connectivity. The staff were friendly, courteous and apologetic -... more

We did not stay in the hotel but ate in the restaurant. While we often came and enjoyed the Publick House meal years ago, this recent experience was beyond horrible. I feel I need to let others know as to steer them clear of a bad experience. The service and food were terrrible. The waitress not only forgot to bring... more

We stayed here as part of a tour of New England in May. We stayed in 5 different places and we loved it. We stayed in the Motor Lodge part which was very quiet and peaceful, easy parking and the two queen beds were spacious and lovely. It even had a little deck for sitting out. Toilet facilities were fine... more

This was my 2nd time staying at the Publick House and, again, the service and accommodations were excellent! Last year I stayed in a suite located in the Chamberlain House; this year I stayed in a one-bed room in the main house of the inn. Although the room was small, it was charming and cozy and clean. I was able... more

We stayed 2 nights at this hotel on 8/8+9/08. We paid $94 per night, through the hotel's own website. We (2 adults, 2 teenage children) came to Sturbridge to visit family in the area, and chose this motel for the location and the pool. The buildings, and rooms therein, were worn and dated, but the rooms were, at least, clean.... more

We stayed at the Motor Lodge for a wedding. The reception was pretty nice and the food was GREAT! Our lodgings though were not impressive. The rooms were extremely out dated and needed some work. The room was clean though but very cold for May. We saw some of the suites at the Main House and they were very nice,... more
