Hillbrook Inn & Spa

Love the setting. The dinner was delicious. Staff were friendly and helpful.

The rooms are a little dated (stayed at Winter Cottage). There is a rustic charm but some tech could be updated.

Hangers in the closets

Hillbrook Inn & Spa has neat, verdant grass with clear flowing stream meandering the grounds that is so delightful and tranquil to be in the midst of. Its grounds have pink Spring flowering trees. The Overlook room in the main house is cozy. The bed was made up daily and towels replaced except on 4/9. Bottles of water were provided on 4/6 and 4/7. Breakfast was served in three dining areas. Pictures of our breakfast speak for themselves. The best treat is the croissant cup with apples in it. Our stay was for five nights so we were looking forward to a “change in menu” that was mentioned. It turned out that they have only one breakfast menu with four choices. Ms. Brooke, the Concierge, was quite pleasant and helpful on 4/9. The male concierge on 4/11 cared to ask how everything’s been. Members of the dining staff are all pleasant. I remember Ms. Jessi, who served us on 4/9, for saying to a couple, “I’m in heaven” with the birth of her granddaughter. We’ve stayed in various resorts and inns in different US States. Hillbrook is unique as they hand a bill for breakfast that’s zeroed out and suggests 18% and up tip amounts.

I kept my daughters kids and paid for a 3 night stay. They arrived and anticipated a few hours of relaxation before venturing out for dinner. Got a call at about 4 to ask if they were coming to their pre booked couples massage. They explained that they had booked it for next day with front desk. Spa and front desk got it wrong. When they asked if they could have it on correct date of booking they were told no. Need to come now. Not a great way to start the trip. When trying to shower after massage they found that their shower head was dirty and clogged. They asked if it could be cleaned. They were told yes. It never happened. I paid for dinner at the property for nights 2 and 3. Night 2 dinner was complete with a small portion cup of olives app. A steak that was so small they had to find food afterwards due to hunger. They cancelled 3rd night dinner. Bar was tiny and jammed into a corner in the main house. Breakfast was a real disappointment. They described it as just ok and nothing special. They ate all future meals away from the Inn. Seems that dinner at 125.00 per person would be the “star of the show”?!?! Don’t book the cabins. I advised that I wanted the best room they had at booking (directly with the Inn) and was told Winter Cabin was the choice to be made. The cabin was split into 4 rooms and not dedicated as I was lead to believe. I was looking forward to visiting myself and sending others. They recommended I find anywhere else in the area I was

Our stay at the Hillbrook Inn and Spa from 2/15-17 was a disappointment from the beginning. Our suite, the Bramford Suite, the hotels finest, was dark and dingy, and did not look like the picture on the website. Light bulbs were out, the ceiling had a large spot of primer (from a leak?), the outlets were missing their outlet covers and the closets were full of paint cans and construction equipment, The room looked like it was being renovated but hastily set up for guests in between reno times. Dinner…3 courses, $135.00 per (the website said $125.00). You could add 3 wines for additional $75.00 per…$25.00 for a glass of wine seemed extreme as did the dinner, but we were celebrating so went with the program. Had a lovely cocktail in the cute bar, then were seated at 6:30, our reserved time. There were 2 tables already seated in our dining area and a few more in the upper dining room. Waiter arrived and took our order, without the additional $75.00 charge for wine. Dinner rolls appeared about 7; 1st course 7:30; 2nd course almost 8, and it was incorrect. Finally served about 8:10 with correct dishes and received dessert 8:30. Food was tasty but skimpy, especially at that price. Breakfast the following 2 days was hearty and served by wonderful servers. The staff was amazing, courteous, friendly and helpful. After reading all the positive reviews, however, our stay was nothing short of disappointing. Don’t think we will return.

Nice getaway from busy DC area, peaceful and quiet, very relaxing.

The room was not the cleanest, lots of dust, tub wasn't very clean and the room looked like it needs some repair, many cracks in the walls, peeling paint, looks sad.

The breakfast were outstanding each morning

Everything was perfect

Das Personal ist sehr zuvorkommend und sie leisten eine hervorragende Servicequalität. Die Zimmer sind sehr sauber und das Essen lecker. Die Zimmer und das Haupthaus sind sehr gemütlich eingerichtet.

There is almost nothing to not like about Hillbrook. It is beautiful, comfortable, and exceptionally clean and well-maintained. Every square inch of the property appears to have been carefully thought out and is very well-appointed. Additionally, the staff is friendly, professional, and very helpful.

We stayed in the farmhouse, and there are no individual air conditioners in the suites. There is a thermostat that controls the temperature for the entire house, and it is inside of a lockbox. You have to call a number to have the temperature changed, but it would end up changing the temperature in the other guests’ rooms, as well.

Always clean with friendly staff and world class cuisine!

Well kept indoors and out.
