“Our go-to when in Williamstown”
We travel to Williamstown every January to visit friends. On
our first trip, several years ago, we stayed at a motel down the road and had
dinner with the friends at the '6 House. And then another dinner there on our
own. Now, we stay at the 1896 House, adjacent to the restaurant (see my
separate review), largely *because* it's right there.
This is a justifiably popular place. Great burgers, salads
and "spaghetts". Good beer on tap served at just the right
temperature. Friendly and efficient service. It's really the kind of place that
you just want to go for well made, plentiful food and a relaxed setting.

“It just gets better”
Just came back from our annual trip to Williamstown to visit
friends, and our annual stay at the 1896 House. Clean, comfortable, well
managed. In the past year they've added flat screen TVs AND memory-foam
mattress tops -- best nights' sleep I've had in a long time.
The "brookside" rooms have a small brook (!)
running right underneath your rear window, and a little bigger one running
across the front of the property. A very peaceful setting.
In addition to the comfort, one of the major draws continues
to be the adjacent '06 House restaurant. You can tell from how busy this large
place always is that it deserves its popularity. We had dinner there two of our
three nights in the area (the third with friends). It's also where the lovely
breakfast is set out each morning: fresh scrambled eggs, thin and tasty (but
not charred!) bacon; bread, bagels and English muffins; yogurt, hard boiled
eggs, coffee cake, and on and on. AND a waffle maker with batter dispenser --
my kids have discovered the joys of adding cocoa mix, or crumbled Fruit Loops
cereal, or crumbled bacon, or.....
Oh, yes. Everyone who works at this place is absolutely kind
and helpful. What more could you want? We don't even think of staying anywhere
else when in this area.
