Everything was what we expected. We have stayed there a number of times. We like the large rooms and good heating system. Another very nice stay. Only criticism is that the fabric on the chairs in my our room was quite dirty.

The room was clean, the staff was courteous and the motel was quite. This is the second year in a row that I stayed at the Franconia Notch Motel and the reason I returned was because I was so happy with my stay last year. It is conveniently located near many area attractions. I will stay here again when I am in the area.

It's an older property but appropriately priced. Accommodation in general is expensive in the area and this is one of the more affordable options. The hot water and AC work well, the rooms are clean. I have stayed here several times when I drive up to do day hikes in the area.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The room was relatively quiet, I could walk to dinner at two restaurants, the tv had lots of channels and the WiFi was relatively strong (89/20) for being in a rural area. There was a fridge if you wanted it and plenty of hot water. The downsides were the furniture and bed were a little dated, and the tub seemed to have a lot of wear and tear on it (but seemed clean). Convenient to Franconia Notch SP, especially Flume Gorge, the Basin, and Canon Mountain.
