We recently hosted an event at the Inn for 35 people. The Inn's event team took our vision for the event to the next level and was able to deliver a memorable experience while not exceeding our budget. Every consideration was made to produce a festive event (beautiful décor, delicious food) and the team also incorporated all of the necessary measures to make the gathering a healthy and safe environment for our guests. I look forward celebrating other special meals and milestones there in the future. I couldn't recommend the Inn at Hastings Park more highly.

We had a disappointing stay at the Inn this October. Our room was clean, but the refrigerator was unplugged causing everything we put inside to be thrown out the next day because it was not refrigerated. The complimentary breakfast was terrible. The most frustrating part of the stay was the parking situation at the main house. We got back from a dinner out and had no where to park for the night. We had to call a number we had been given numerous times, after looking for someone to talk to inside the Inn (no one was there). After being told to check another lot, we ended up being told to park

My husband and I stayed at The Inn at Hastings Park last month while visiting family. It was a great experience. Our room was lovely and very comfortable, and the service was excellent. Everyone we encountered from the owner through the restaurant staff and the housekeeping staff were helpful. There was a problem with the shower in our accessible room, but they are aware of it and stated they intend to fix it.
We hosted a family lunch outside on the front porch which was convenient, delicious and comfortable in the midst of Covid. It helped, no doubt, that it was a beautiful New England fall

We were NOT impressed with The Inn at Hastings Park!
Information on the website/amenities was deceiving, 'complimentary snacks' are billed at $18 a day, not exactly complimentary! Complimentary snacks were not stocked daily-disappointing! Once I called the front desk requesting snacks, they were delivered!
The complimentary continental breakfast consisted of over-ripen bananas, marginal store bought sweet bread (not exactly indicative of a $450 a nite room), ok yoghurt and ok granola.
Staff was pleasant, rooms were nice, location good but DEFINITELY NOT worth the price!

Wonderful experience at Inn at Hastings Park in Lexington.
We are not comfortable eating indoors, I totally respect that some people are but it's not the right choice for us
We rented an Igloo, you can reserve online. Brunch is $200 minimum (pre charged) for upto 6 people. We had 4 + a 3yo.
The 4 course brunch (menu in here) is $50pp and kids 3 and under are free. If you wanted unlimited bubbly it's $60pp or you pay for drinks a la cart.
Igloos are well spaced apart, the wait staff comes to take order and drops food but does not hang out.
Food was amazing, igloo was comfortable

We only had brunch/ dinner and the experience was okay. It was a lot of fun, we went because of the igloos and wanted to do a fun Christmas/ holiday celebration. When we began with getting the reservation, it was a very odd experience. It originally started at a very high price and then it was chopped down by $100. The only reason we knew it was cut by $100 was because when we were looking at the menu, it was peculiar because no one told us that the prices were reduced. Then when we called again, someone who worked there said something like: "by the way if you want you can order off the Christmas

My sister was visiting from Houston and we were celebrating her 50th birthday. Ruthnie took care of us like family, as always. She worked with the wonderful staff at Artistry to make my sis's birthday a day she won't soon forget. From the special, almost to pretty to consume, charcuterie to the mouth watering brunch and finally the beautifully plated birthday cake. The chef was so talented and passionate about what he does that we were in awe. Such attentiveness and warm service that my family kept saying how genuine and heartfelt their efforts were. The quality of the food and the gracious service

I have nothing but praise for this lovely & unique gem hidden in one of America's historic sites -Lexington, MA. A world renowned Relais & Chateaux that offered the best of everything. We were greeted by Christa upon our arrival and shown to our gorgeous boutique room especially chosen to even make our Chili Rose welcome with green space just outside our door. Everything about this place was warm & inviting. We enjoyed bevvies at the bar with Tom the bartender, who stayed later so we could enjoy visiting with local friends & a lunch that was out of this world! We travel

I stayed here for a quiet birthday weekend getaway. It was the absolute best ever.
I very briefly mentioned that I was there for my birthday and maybe an hour later champagne arrived to my room. The Inn was even nice enough to let my boyfriend take credit for getting the champagne - he only later told me that it was all them!
Since we stayed in February, we mainly read by the fire and explored the Inn. It was the coziest, loveliest wintertime retreat.
Also, a big shout to the restaurant onsite. It is truly delicious - everything from the lunch grilled cheese to the dinner steak. The details

Our stay at The Inn at Hastings happened partly by accident, due to a change in travel plans. It turned out to be the most wonderful and relaxing part of our vacation!
The team at the Inn is incredibly sweet, kind, and thoughtful throughout every part.
We loved the beauty and all the details of the hotel. Each room is unique and exquisite! (I especially loved the different wallpapers in each room and section of the hotel).
The restaurant at the Inn is delicious and again very thoughtfully created. The atmosphere is quaint and the food is perfect. We always appreciate locally sourced, healthy

Very nice venue and dining. First came here while with an up and coming pharmaceutical company in Lexington in '02.
Clean, neat and very nice staff. Well stocked snacks and beverages, as well as fine dining.
Love to stay overnight, as it seems like a quaint place to rest.
Parking is somewhat limited, best to car pool.

Thought we would walk from our home in Lexington and have dinner, sitting at bar. Ordered Caesar salad (4 lettuce leaves) for $13. The burger was great; fries could be crispier. The coup de grace was the scallop entree at $38. Three, yes count them, three, small scallops, and a few veggies. We complained to no avail. The overworked and overwhelmed bartender did his best.

*UPDATE*
Responding to Trisha P:
I have no doubt in my mind that the bug bites came from that room. Perhaps the bed is not the culprit. Maybe the carpet? The carpet had several stains that I took note of. The day after check-in I left a note saying pls change the sheets and vacuum (as I saw multiple debris left on the floor including a dead wasp which I also mentioned in the note) and housekeeping should be able to recall that note.
Perhaps the room being so close to the back forest area means that there should be better insulation via the front door?
There's always a first person to complain

Truly wonderful experience staying in this place! Despite being from Massachusetts, I felt like a true New Englander while staying here... the fact that it was built in the 1800s and is down the street from the Statue of Paul Revere takes gives you that atmosphere.
Aside from the historical context, the inn is absolutely stunning! Whoever their interior designer is, please come and redesign our townhouse! All the rooms are very new-era Americana and boasts tons of sunlight. The beds felt lavish to sleep in and the rooms/bathrooms were kept extremely clean.
Their service was also commendable.

This place is so, so special to us. My husband and I were married in September 2014 and stumbled across the Inn at Hastings Park online while scrambling to figure out a nice place to spend our wedding night. We loved it so much that we stayed 3 nights in mini-honeymoon fashion, and we plan to return on our anniversaries in the future. My husband surprised me with a stay there for Valentine's this year as well. Both rooms we have stayed in so far are absolutely gorgeous -- immaculately clean and well-appointed with lots of New England character. Everyone we have met who works at the inn is

What a little gem tucked away about 25 minutes or so outside of Boston. Worth every single dime.
I booked about two weeks ahead of my trip. A few days before, something came up and I had to reschedule my one night stay. I was nervous they weren't going to be able to help me, but the staff immediately accommodated my needs with warm email exchanges. I should've known that from that point on I was in good hands!
After a long and exhausting day exploring Salem/Boston, etc., I headed over to the Inn to check in. The Inn looks like a beautiful New England home, and has two smaller buildings
