The obvious lead is our delicious breakfast, but every aspect of our stay at this charming inn was wonderful. The host family bought the inn last sunmmer and since then have made some beautiful upgrades while maintaining the beauty and integrity of this gracious home. We loved its high ceilings, natural wood floors including one room in rarely seen black walnut, large windows, comfortable beds and modern bathrooms. There is inviting common space as well. Close to downtown Amerst and college campuses, the Black Walnut Inn is a great place to stay.

This was a great place to stay. The staff are super friendly, my room was spacious, well equipped and very comfortable. It is really conveniently located for getting into the town centre whilst retaining a country feel. The breakfast was lovely. I won't be staying anywhere else next time I'm in Amhurst.

Although there are new owners, the quality has been maintained. This is a wonderful Inn. The rooms are attractive and comfortable, large with all the amenities that one would need. And the breakfasts are outstanding. The owners and staff are delightful. I can't wait for my next stay.

1. Staff: Professional, gracious, unerring staff and service. Accommodated all requests, including use of their clothes dryer, although laundry services are not generally available. 2. Vibe: Idyllically charming New England inn/b&b. 3. Food: Delicious made to order full and generous breakfast choices. They know how to do scrambled eggs. Excellent coffee. 4. Rooms: Immaculate. Comfortable. Spacious. Quiet. Period decor but nothing futsy. . Everything was fresh or brand new. 5. Internet/cell: Free. No problems whatsoever with tech. 6. Economical. Bests the competition in Amherst, which is often close to booked, because it's a multiple college town. 7.. Location/Parking: Well and conveniently located close to the town center. Plenty of parking. Just loved my stay at the Black Walnut Inn, although I was there for a memorial. It offered a peaceful, soothing place to stay. All was great, but the service was especially wonderful.

The Inn is a beautiful historic mansion, well cared for and thoughtfully updated as a B&B. Our large room in the original portion of the house was very comfortable and attractive. We enjoyed a delicious breakfast every morning; the menu offered gluten-free and vegetarian selections. The staff was very friendly and welcoming.

We visited friends in Amherst and didn’t realize this was “move-in” weekend at UMass. Our normal hotel was over $500 a night. We found the Black Walnut Inn at half the price, but boy…the experience was twice as good! The room was wonderful, with exposed beams which added to the ambiance. The staff was so welcoming and helpful and the breakfast each morning was bountiful, well-prepared and delicious. We will drop our regular hotel from now on and plan to only stay at the Black Walnut Inn from now on!

The Black Walnut Inn has been much more than an extremely comfortable, beautifully designed and furnished hotel room during my weeks in this neck of the woods to visit with my ill sister. The owners of this place are incredibly kind, good people. They have gone far out of their way for me, almost as if we were family. I cannot thank them adequately.
