What guests think

At Sugarloaf Inn, guests consistently praise the ski-in/ski-out convenience and mountain views, describing it as a straightforward base for accessing the slopes and nearby trails during a visit to the mountain.

Rooms are generally clean but often dated and small, with some updated units; several reviews cite noise in rooms near the restaurant/bar and the lack of an elevator, plus limited in-room amenities like fridges or microwaves. Service is described as friendly and responsive via text, with easy code-based check-in, though guests frequently find no staff on site off-season and note occasional shortcomings like housekeeping on request only. Common areas feel worn, while practical perks such as ski storage, shuttle access, and free parking add convenience. Expect a simple, mountain-convenient stay rather than a full-service hotel.

Picture postcard gorgeous view of the mountain. The only drawback that the rooms are second and third floors with no elevator. Also no microwave or fridge in room.

Stayed here for a golf trip at Sugarloaf Golf Club. Hardly anyone around (no staff on site) Rooms are dated, bathrooms are small and no elevator but everything worked perfectly. Its an Inn afterall and the price is fair for the area.

We were well aware of the check in procedure, but signage for parking was difficult to see. Ice machine was out of order. Flooring in lobby, stairs and hallways needs updating. We also knew there was limited dining in the area, but it was more limited than we imagined.

We were appalled. This was advertised as a hotel - its not. Its a condo complex. There was no staff, no restaurant, no elevator. Its old and small. The bed was horrible. The only decent thing about this stay was the shower.

We traveled in August, when many people don't stay at this property (most stay at the higher priced hotel). There were actually no staff on site, directions and room entry were by email and phone. Resturant was closed, must go to one of the other options in the Sugarloaf complex. Room was adequate and very clean. Windows can open, a nice touch. Absolutely request a handicap room on the ground floor if you cannot climb 2 flights of stairs to the next level for rooms. During the winter season, it is fully operational. Adequate for 1-2 nights in off season, otherwise stay at the hotel.

Very outdated! Rundown stinky carpet in My room and all common areas. No elevators and stuck us on 3rd floor. No Ac in common areas either. Had a hard time finding it too. Aside from the beautiful scenery I wouldn’t recommend it I wish I had spent the extra money to stay at the Sugarloaf resort and not the Sugarloaf in big difference! Very overpriced for these Mediocre one down accommodations.

The reception area was warm and inviting. So easy to get to room and store skis on same level as snow access. It made it so comfortable and easy for the first time on the mountain. The restaurant had a happy feeling and great food and prices. It is not brand new but the place, you go to relax and meet others. Free parking and on shuttle route.

It was fine for the price and a one night stay. I did expect they would have a breakfast- as I thought that it advertised that. But there was none, and they advertised coffee, it was a Keurig and I did not have time to make one. Was expecting ready coffe and just pour into a cup and go.

Room is directly under restaurant and bar, can hear all the noise and music. There was no information when booking room it was located under restaurant and bar subject to their noise during operating hours. Hoping for quiet night and early to bed for a restful nights sleep, not going to happen. I feel I have been completely mislead. Horrible choice to stay here. Want a refund!
