Hospitality at its finest

When I learned that the venue for a major family event hosted by my younger son and daughter-in-law was to be held at the Inn, I decided to book rooms there for that weekend for myself, my siblings, and my other son and his family. Even before our arrival, the hotel took care to confirm the various arrival plans and room configurations, and so check-in was seamless for each party. The common areas were extremely comfortable and inviting, and over the course of the weekend when we weren't busy with the main event, we and other friends and family members staying at the Inn enjoyed getting together there to share a drink from the hotel bar and catch up with each other. After the event wrapped up late Saturday afternoon, a number of family members expressed the desire to gather informally with some pizzas and sandwiches rather than dining out. The front desk very graciously agreed to our using the common area (lobby and vicinity) to continue socializing and snacking (fyi: I ought to note that we were extremely careful about cleaning up after ourselves and made sure to keep the volume down to that no other guests were inconvenienced). When it was time to leave on that Sunday morning, I learned from the valet that one window in my rental car had inadvertently been left partly open, resulting in a very wet front passenger seat. He gathered several towels to try his best to mop up the water and then returned with more dry towels for the person using that seat to sit upon. Of his own accord, he asked the front desk to remove the parking fee from my bill because of this inconvenience. That was not necessary but was appreciated, and is yet another example of the staff of Hanover Inn doing all they could to ensure a very pleasant and memorable stay.
Exceptional all around

I’d been staying in Hanover Inn twice so far. The room is beautiful and clean and the service is great. If you visit Dartmouth, this hotel is perfect. It is like staying in Dartmouth. Pine restaurant in the hotel is also wonderful to have meals.
