"Your staff is outstanding and they should be commended for their professionalism as well as for their customer service orientation. From your sales staff, to your front desk, to housekeeping, to banquets, to kitchen, to maintenance staff, they are all exemplary. In terms of the actual program and accommodations my guests felt that they were treated like family members. No guest or group should need to ask for anything more."

"On the day of our meeting, your staff did not disappoint us. Everything was set up to our specifications, and your personnel went out of their way to accommodate some last minute requests, which we needed.

It was our pleasure to deal with your hotel, and we anticipate a return visit to Sturbridge for one of our future meetings."

"I would like to take this opportunity to inform you of the outstanding staff you have in the Catering and Banquet departments. Your staff went far beyond the call of duty in making this program a complete success. Their extreme patience and constant willingness to take care of our needs, specially the unexpected ones, and there were many, at a moments notice, was a vital part of why it was such a great success. Your sales staff out did themselves when faced with numerous changes and requests from various committee members. I look forward to working with all of you in the future."
Umass Medical School


"A delightful property. We were welcomed with open smiles by friendly, professional hotel staff, a pure delight! A well-maintained property, supported by two restaurants and a homey bar, design for the business traveler, families with children, and empty nesters like us. Our spacious 'Early American" wallpaper decorated accommodations had a tasteful antique style furniture and attractive prints. The Host provides Early American dinning at its best at the Oxhead Tavern. P.Bella's offered us the best of both worlds; traditional family priced Italian cuisine with a hint of American flair."
