We spent two nights at the Equinox for a wedding which was spectacular. The location is the hotel's #1 asset. The wedding reception was held on the grounds of the Equinox which, unlike the hotel itself, were amazing. Beautiful tent, gorgeous Green Mountain views, excellent service. As for the hotel, it's a different story. The terms "past its prime", "in need of a facelift", and "faded Grande Dame" are accurate. The lack of capital improvements and disrepair of the physical infrastructure is borderline embarrassing. Never mind the: 1) broken shutters 2) cracked windows 3) gym equipment which doesn't work 4) musty smell as a result of a patchwork AC system It's the green entrance awning which I wanted to repair myself. There is nothing like a first impression and the first impression of the Equinox is a molded and torn awning. Forget about the above. Can the owner please just replace the green awning as you walk into the main entrance? I am sure a group of guests would agree to do it for free.

Heard this place was iconic, a classic. Maybe back in the day, but today it needs a bath, a serious deep clean. There is potential, a few nice spaces here and there, but overall it's old, sad and staffed by mostly unpleasant people who appear detached from the concept of service - except for Paige at the bar. Dear Owners, your days of charging $700 a night are over. Shut it down, gut it, invest or sell.

Our stay at Equinox was highlighted by PaigeW who served us at the Marsh bar on Friday evening. She was engaging and much fun to talk with. Thank you Paige.

A truly magnificent experience! Like stepping back to another era where Gatsby would have held court. The place is like 200 years old, so if your a W Hotel kind of guy, it's not necessarily for you. Having said that, the grounds are fantastic, the spa is thoroughly modern, and there is a charm & character to the place that is priceless.

This was our third consecutive year celebrating our anniversary at the Equinox, and it continues to exceed our expectations. We love the historic charm of the resort and rooms, as well as the lively yet relaxing atmosphere at both the Falcon Bar and Marsh Tavern. The golf course across the street is in impeccable condition. From the staff to the fellow guests, everyone we encountered was a pleasure to be around. We’re already looking forward to returning next year.
