Five of us had a meal at the Lowell Inn the day before Mother's Day, and had a poor experience. When we arrived, there was no hostess and a gangly bellboy said we should just find a table. we had madema reservation a month earlier. Four of us were worried when the fifth was half an hour late. When she... More

We found the Lowell Inn to be very charming and historic. I appreciate that even after restoration, it still feels like a step back in time. The modern room we stayed in was clean and comfortable, with balcony. While we enjoyed ourselves, we did not find the staff to be very hospitable. The only time we were spoken to was... More

My husband and I wanted a hotel next to Domacin wine/food bar. So we could just walk back to our hotel. I booked a king jacuzzi room. Before using hotel jacuzzi we always fill the jacuzzi up once... then drain. There were so many little bits of black from the filters... we would not use it, but was reimbursed for... More

This place is such a mixed bag! We spent our anniversary in the lovely corner HoneyMoon Suite (room 336) with its fun double whirlpool, electric FP, & comfy bed. Nicely decorated, including fun lighting and beautiful chandeliers. I was dismayed to find only 2 "glasses" in the room - plastic covered plastic cups! Small, chintzy towels. Found the dirty cover...

This is a funky old hotel. Fine. But to actually have a room with no bathroom door and just a curtain and charge the same for it as for a bigger room with a bathroom door is too funky. When I requested a discount on the too funky room, I was basically told that I was lucky that it had... More

This hotel is like stepping into by-gone era. The furnishings, lighting, everything, looks turn of the century. So with that said, be aware that it is not tip-top perfect as you would find in another newer hotel charging about the same per night. They even have actual keys for your room - not a plastic card. Our room was pleasant... More

My family and I wanted to get away close to home for Christmas Eve. The Lowell Inn was a perfect place. The historic charm of the rooms and dining area, coupled with the amazing food, was absolutely delightful! When we woke up to a cold winter morning and our car did not start, the staff was ever so helpful and... More

We stayed here in October for an on-site wedding. Loved the location and the validated parking. Rehearsal dinner was held on-site and it was fantastic. Wedding food was okay but the bartender was a total tool. We were asked at the last minute if we'd be interested in a free room upgrade. I love free and the woman said the... More

We really enjoyed our stay at the Lowell Inn. The decorations were unique, gorgeous, and charming.The jacuzzi room was very pleasant and comfortable. Bring your camera, there's lots to see at this Inn. Everything was to our satisfaction, especially the breakfeast. We were disappointed that it wasn't complimentary but trust me-- it is TOTALLY worth the money! Their breakfeast is... More
