Stunning Renovations Now Underway - Be Even More Spoiled from June, 2021
Exciting News
The Cornell Inn is undergoing renovations to make it the premier Inn in the Berkshires. Reservations may be made now for availability starting June 15, 2021.
Modern comforts in an authentic New England Inn
The Cornell Inn, a beautiful, centuries-old bed and breakfast, consists of three historic eighteenth and nineteenth century buildings, containing twenty-eight rooms and suites, all of which will be completely remodeled in Spring 2021. All rooms and suites will incorporate modern amenities with unique and stylish decor.
Location location location …
The inn is located in the heart of the historic village of Lenox, just five minutes from Tanglewood and a short stroll from the restaurants, shops, galleries, and boutiques of Main Street. We are positioned at the base of well-known Kennedy Park, a wooded nature preserve with 180 acres of trails for hiking, biking, walking, running, cross country skiing and snowshoeing.
A Place for All Seasons
Our three period-style buildings encompass twenty-eight guest rooms and suites, some possessing lofts and/or balconies, and others which can be 
combined into suites. Our Berkshires lodging property is situated on four exquisite acres of beautifully groomed gardens, complete with a waterfall and pond; an oasis of privacy and serenity. Nineteen of our accommodations have wood-burning fireplaces. All of our rooms and suites include refrigerators or mini-fridges, and Keurig coffee makers, as well as separate A/C and heat venting. We are open year-round, welcoming wedding parties, family reunions, corporate guests, and extended stay vacations, as well.
Breakfast–a perfect start to every day!
We are delighted to be recognized for our hearty and delicious breakfasts! Unique recipes and fresh ingredients make for mouthwatering breakfasts which you will come to dream about! Breakfast is served each morning with warm sunshine and mountain air on our deck with views of our waterfall and pond; or in our glass-surrounded breakfast room with gorgeous views of our grounds and a wood-burning fireplace, in season.
Dining available on the deck next to a small fish pond and waterfall, weather permitting.
Relax! You Deserve It
During the afternoon and evenings, we frequently offer complimentary snacks, coffee, tea, and seasonal treats like hot apple cider from a local orchard or a frosty glass of lemonade.
21st Century Amenities
We offer a variety of amenities to make your stay with us as comfortable as possible. Cable and complimentary high-speed wireless internet are available in every room. Nineteen rooms contain wood-burning fireplaces. Suites or long-term units can also be reserved.
We take your safety seriously, and to that end, we have enacted procedures to protect our guests. In addition to careful cleaning and sanitation, we offer socially distanced outdoor seating for breakfast and each room has its own air conditioner (and heat) vent systems, so there is no air transfer between guest rooms. We are in the process of completely renovating the rooms and suites, lobby, and dining areas and will re-open to guests on June 15, 2021.
