Have dined at the restaurant 4-5 times over the last 2 years. The food is usually pretty good, but the service is ALWAYS sub-par at best. The servers seem to fawn over a few guests while completely ignoring others.
We went there this evening for the fish fry. There were only a few other patrons there. We took our seats among the many open tables. After about 10 min, one of the servers asked "Did you have a reservation?" I replied that we did not, she responded that "Two people had a reservation for 5:00pm, and we are kind on waiting on them". As it was 5:30, I responded

The neighborhood is in decay.
The room had a shower curtain bar in disrepair that allowed water to fall to the bathroom floor. I requested repair and nothing happened. I asked for a 2nd roll of toilet paper, again nothing.
Breakfast was lacking in both quality of ingredients and presentation
Went to the bar for a drink during the afternoon. After waiting 5 min, no one came to service us.
This hotel should be avoided if at all possible. Given that the rating is $$$, one should expect a lot more

Really outstanding meal, excellent service, and great atmosphere! Had the Mac & Cheese bites, Hancock House Burger, and the Grilled Chicken wrap. Had I been able to eat more, I would have ordered another round of food! Beers were ice cold and tasty and the entire establishment was clean from the entrances to the bathrooms. You can tell the owners work hard & really care about their clients!

Sadly I won't be back. I've been staying at the Hancock House once a month while on business. It's has been a decent place to stay, nice to have a restaurant on site and the free breakfast was good. But, the last few times the room was not that well cleaned (trash still in the bathroom garbage and some other minor things). Also, no coffee for hotel guests in the lobby - really kind of odd and inconvenient. The rate went up when Spring came around ok, I get it. I stayed the other night, go to the room and see the nightstand was pulled out as if it was going to be cleaned behind, but

Very nice place. Like having a Marriott in town. We have a summer place nearby and came to check it in the winter. We stayed at the Hancock House and it was lovely. Very nice restaurant for dinner, comfortable room and excellent mattress (better than I'd expected) and a great breakfast included. Good free WiFi and a charming place overall. All Covid safety measures are being observed.

I've never stayed here, but I'm sure it's beautiful. I have however tried to eat here. We entered the dining room and every table was eating breakfast, just what I wanted. We were seated promptly and given menus, lunch menus. But we really wanted breakfast. We had been on the road and looked for places to eat on the web. This place looked nice and the menu looked inviting. But the invitation ends at 11:30, not stated on the website. We were told at 11:45 that we could not have breakfast. Although the table next to us was just served theirs. Did the eggs jump back into the chickens

We stayed here for a few days and was a good experience. Bob at concierge was super friendly and helpful. Room was clean and spacious and king bed was very comfortable. We had a balcony for no extra charge which gave great view of the mountains. They have a bar downstairs with Sherrie mixing excellent cosmos. The big dining area named The Maple Room was open for breakfast and dinner. Chef Randy cooks wonderfully and his BBQ menu is highly recommended.. My wife had the scallops & they were outstanding. Rooms are moderately priced. Hancock Hotel is a hidden gem in the Catskills.

I took room with king bed and with terrace. It was amazing - clean, cozy, quiet, and the view!!.. when I was sitting on my terrace watching green mountains and blue sky, I felt totally happy and very far from all my worries. Room is very homey. Personal is very friendly. Hancock is nice, relaxing and quiet. Thank you guys, I'll be back :)

We enjoyed our stay. The room was HUGE. Had every amenity we could think of. The staff is pleasant. The hotel is quirky to say the least. Written instructions on how to use the door knobs and closets. OK. Im sure there is a reason why they needed to have written notes every wear. Breakfast was delicious. Will be back next year.

We stayed here as regular guests a few days before our wedding weekend as we settled in Hancock. The free breakfast was great and dinner at the Maple Room was solid too. I wouldn't say the food is a 5-star cuisine, but given the small town, having a warm meal prepared just downstairs is crucial. The rooms were also as described and perfectly comfortable. The WiFi is a little weak, but having WiFi at all in the area was great. On top of that, the staff was always ready to help with a smile on their face. Lynn and Rosie in particular are amazing!

We stayed here for 2 nights while attending a wedding in the area. The hotel was generally pretty nice and we were happy with it. Our room was fairly large and we had a balcony overlooking the Main Street through town, which was nice. One thing I have to say though is that I found the room dark. Even if you turned on all the lights, it was still fairly dark in the room. Other than that, the room came with a free breakfast in one of two restaurants downstairs. The breakfast was nicer than most hotel breakfasts; instead of a simple buffet, it's a full sit-down restaurant. You order something

I don't like leaving a not-so-good review after a single visit but it's my only time in Hancock. Please note that this covers the restaurant only, not the hotel; and note that they were short staffed.
The place is charming and looks like comfortable hotel. The restaurant was closed for some reason, but the server said they serve the same menu at the bar. That was fine with us, as the bar was spacious and reasonably quiet, with comfortable booths.
We were in no rush. Good thing, because service was very slow. The server explained she was handling the place alone. She also explained

It is hard to rate this hotel and its restaurants because for this part on the country - (upstate Catskills ny) this place would have to be rated 5 star. That being said when i pay over $150.00 per night i expect to be pampered. The room is comfortable enough but lacks the extra touches. The food is a step above cafeteria food. For that reason i ordered the chicken and eggplant parm combo over spegetti. You cant do to much to ruin that. One thing i have to say is the portions are huge! The watress was very nice too.
The only other place on my way to my destination is a days inn in liberty ny
