Across the street from MASS MoCA, the artsy rooms here combine well-considered color palettes, ample lighting and retro styling. The accommodations are inside a row of 19th-century houses with traditional front porches complete with rocking chairs, perfect for post-museum contemplation. A highlight is the heated swimming pool and hot tub open year-round. Rates include a cooked breakfast.
It seems pricey for North Adams, but they got all the details right.
