The owner was very welcoming and friendly. The chef was amazing! Hands down the best breakfast I’ve ever had! We particularly enjoyed having a glass of wine by the wood burning fireplace.

When I was choosing the property I got suggested by the reviews. I am not sure who wrote them. The Sugar Hill Inn is not high and property. The property is in poor shape. The room we were staying in ( quite expensive and upgraded) was very cold and the bathroom did not have heat at all. The pictures on the website and reality are very far off. No one was at the front desk. Bar not open on Saturday night. I slipped and fell on the driveway because was like sheet of ice. Not salted or sanded. Everything very old and sad looking. Will not stay there again for sure. Poor experience overall.

We had a great room, very private with plenty of space to relax. The bed was very comfortable and the view was beautiful. The receptionist was very friendly and helpful.
As an additional bonus...Polly's Pancake Parlor is only a mile away.

This is designated an a 4 star hotel with a relatively expensive nightly rate. There was no staff on hand to welcome us. The sofa felt well worn and the bed was scuffed, although extremely comfortable. Breakfast was average. There was nothing special about the service. Creamer and sugar was available in small, disposable containers and coffee was dispensed via a Keurig machine. I would rate this a 3 star experience at most.

Stay away. The key will be left on front desk with note saying call a number with questions. The absentee owners will never answer the phone! There is no manager and a kid who needs to oversee the bar and everything else. Old hotel with slanted floors, low doors and fireplace that does not work. I cone to NH and VT often. This is way overpriced and not worth the $$. Restaurant does not give preference to patrons and does not allow carryout. No food! Less than 1 *

The property was cute from the outside and the restaurant was great. We enjoyed dinner and breakfast there. The staff was welcoming and helpful. The property itself could use some updating and maintenance. Some areas looked a bit neglected. Did not feel we received value for our money.

The room had a very strong odor and when we talked to staff they said it was from the cleaner. If you are fragrance sensitive be advised to ask them to not use this in your room prior to check in. Accommodations need updating as it is showing age.

The evening meal was top class. The food was probably the best we’ve eaten in our tour of New England. The service was excellent and we were not rushed…a remarkably rare thing when eating out in America.
The room was lovely and cosy. We found nothing to fault at all

Based on the website photos and description of the property and amenities, I arrived with very high expectations. I was disappointed with the Sugar Hill Inn as it was not up to the standards defined in the promotional material. The first impression as you arrive at the door is the landscaping is unkept, the flowers on the porch are all dead and the pavers are falling off. I was looking forward to hanging out in the Tavern for a drink but it was not staffed except at dinner. The dining room is nice but the meal was just OK and not how it seemed to be described as "fine dining". Breakfast was very basic. It was indicated that at 4 pm "it is time for a small bite, a surprise from our chef." The day we went down to try it out, the bite were two muffins from breakfast and a batch a grapes. We didn't bother after that.
We never met the Innkeepers and that to me is one of the selling points of staying at a B&B - and throughout the day you had to call for assistance (which was promptly responded to). But overall, the Inn lacked an energy without someone around. The current owners bought the Inn in 2021 so perhaps the reputation for the Inn was built on the energy of the previous owner Steve Allen
So be aware that the what you see and read on the websites is not the current standard at the Sugar Hill
