Perfect Pitstop

I stayed one night when in town on business with the university. The location was ideal for my needs; parking and check-in were easy. The boutique, period styling of this hotel is somewhat unique, and very different to many chain hotels. Very nice, and it’s possible to open windows in the rooms for fresh air! I arrived close to 8pm and was able to catch the restaurant before it closed. I took dinner in my suite, preferring this to sitting alone in an empty restaurant. The standard of the food was 10/10! I ordered the NY Strip with Broccolini and Asparagus sides - all were perfect for my taste and they did not scrimp on the vegetable portions. What a lovely place, all the staff were only too happy to make sure all needs were taken care of. I have no hesitation thoroughly recommending this hotel for business travelers.

Loved this boutique hotel. We had a wonderful experience at the Beechwood Hotel. Friendly staff - easiest check-in ever! The hotel and grounds were well kept, room was cleaned everyday, and it was so quiet and calming. Great location to Shrewsbury Street and restaurants and shopping just across the bridge. Will stay here again when we come back to visit family & friends.

This is a wonderful hotel at a reasonable price. All staff members were friendly and attentive. Rooms are spacious and clean. This is our go-to hotel when we visit our daughter in Worcester, MA. There are other hotels in the area, but we keep coming back to this one.
Wonderful stay.

I stayed overnight at the Beechwood because of weather problems. I work locally and needed to be sure to get to my work the day of/after an impending storm. I called very last minute and was accommodated. Quincy was extremely helpful and kind and so friendly and got me set up in a great room. I would recommend the Beechwood to anyone! I don't live far from the hotel, but would honestly consider it for a weekend "getaway!"
Sad and pathetic

The room was fine. Despite calling ahead to confirm restaurant for diner was open, it was not. Breakfast buffet in a make-shift conference room cost $18. I’ve had better ‘included’ breakfast buffets. Seriously. I asked the front desk for a water because there was none at breakfast and she directed me to the gift shop so that I could buy one. Outdated, in an industrial park. Staff were not rude, nor were they hospitable. Worcester doesn’t have much for hotels, but this is not the answer.
