The Inn was a nice place - very comfortable to enjoy. Unfortunately the mattress was too firm to be comfortable. There was too much light coming in under the door from the hallway. The red light on the bottom of the TV lit up the room. It was very hard to sleep. The basic supplies for breakfast were very basic. All four of us chose cereal but there weren't four cereal bowls available. The location was nice - we were able to walk to dinner. We were there to hike and the trailhead was very close.

Don’t judge a book by its cover. At first look was concerned we had made a bad choice. The staff couldn’t have been more helpful, even though there was no one on site when we checked in. I am an absolute clean freak, I come with my own cleaning supplies, and this place was spotless, no rugs on floors which means so much to me, and had a true “spa feeling”. The one thing that is a little concerning is the parking, there really is none. You park next door at the restaurant which is not so bad, but my husband and I are in our 80’s. Fortunately, we were able to park in the driveway as they were not so busy when we were there. Overall, it is a lovely place to stay. John & Aileen, September of 2023

My daughter and I greatly enjoyed our stay at The Trail. We stayed in the Africa room, which featured an amazing steam shower and a lovely vaulted ceiling. The property was clean, quiet, and tastefully decorated with art from local creators. We will definitely stay again when we are in The Berkshires.

Great stay! The only real complaint is one I've seen from others, the parking situation was a bit sketchy for me traveling on my own. Neighbors on the street we were directed to park on did not seem pleased (got lots of weird looks) and the crowd at the bar next door was really rowdy on Friday night. None of that can be controlled, but it was a weird contrast to the tranquil environment inside and made me think twice about going out to my car at night.

Our inn is across the street from an elderly housing apartment building and on all other sides of the inn are residential homes. The old people across the way are always waving, happy to see people come to us from all over the world. There is a neighborhood bar next door and it is true, New Englanders are reserved. Often this reserve is mistaken for unfriendliness. We also though they looked at us funny when we first arrived but we soon realized that they are kind and welcoming as soon as you get past the initial reserve. The people here are very proud of their town and also proud of our inn. We would not have chosen this location if there were any issues at all with our neighbors. I feel safe as a single woman at night and I am comfortable walking around town myself. There are several single women in houses in our neighborhood. People do not lock their doors. It's very safe. The quiet can be misleading especially if you live in a big city and come to the quiet country! But it really is just a quiet town in the Berkshires.

We stayed for 2 nights at Topia Inn Moroccan Room. It was a great experience. The B&B is very clean, well-maintained. Special compliments for creative, nutritious, and healthy breakfast. It was really good! All our requests were answered with the best attention and detail. Nana and all staff were terrific. We would love to stay in Topia Inn again when we are in the Berkshires.

Very nice inn convenient to many fun places to see such as Mass MoCa, the Clark museum, hiking Mt. Greylock. Rooms are all differently decorated. The owner asks for all guests to remove their shoes to keep the dirt outside which keeps things clean inside. Breakfasts are fantastic! All organic food well prepared. Organic, fragrance free, natural products are offered for use in the bathroom. They are all wonderful to use. Inn is tastefully decorated

Sustainable getaway
There's a lot to like about Topia Inn. It is very much a sustainable property, producing its own electricity and completely chemical free - hemp rugs, clay walls. The room we stayed in had a great jetted tub and a floating bed, which was super comfortable. The room was small, however, and the bed took up most of the space, so there was not anywhere to sit except on the bed, so we ended up playing cards on the floor. We were not in the room that much so it did not really matter, but it would not have been an optimal rom if I had to any work while on the road.

We are so glad you enjoyed our floating bed. It's true the bed is very large and we also had to leave enough room all around for a swing radius. Our living room/dining room area has plenty of seating for a nice work environment if you need one next time. Free wifi and plenty of coffee and teas!

So many positive aspects come to mind. Staying at an organic setting in a floating bed was something this middle aged person has never done so I fully embraced this new experience. Exceptional and unexpected are two words which come to mind. The thoughtfulness evident in the development and sharing of this vision is truly touching. Something to emulate.

An organic inn, really
If you're very particular about clean, allergic to dust or just a someone who likes their inn "just so", this is the place for you. Off the beaten track but well worth finding. Excellent breakfast but do not expect amenities like computer and printer or workout room. There are though an astounding variety of teas to choose from. Also be aware of the slippers no shoes inside policy. They do though supply organic slippers for you. And our room had a fantastic bathroom.

Cozy bed and breakfast in the Berkshires.
Check in was arranged via email prior to our arrival. We were greeted at the door and given a brief tour of the hotel. The vegan breakfast each morning was delicious and unique, if a little small. They served very high quality coffee, as well. We stayed in the Zen room the first night, and the Aloha room the second night. Both were very comfortable with very relaxing atmospheres. My only complaint was that the AC was not working in the Zen room the first night, but the hotel staff solved this problem by switching us to the Aloha room. Overall, this was a very comfortable, relaxing place to stay. I would definitely take my fiance here again!
