The Little Lion - A redesigned 1960s roadside motel at Monument Mountain's foot with garden views
Located at the foot of Monument Mountain, this Great Barrington hotel features 16 air-conditioned rooms with flat-screen TVs, refrigerators, and iPod docking stations. The Little Lion's interior showcases a Scandinavian mid-century modern design mixed with 1970s patterns, complemented by retro-style fridges and built-in wall ironing boards. The open-plan reception area contains a sanded wood-plank picnic table, benches, and seating zones with purple flowered upholstery. A continental breakfast of homemade granola, local farm yogurt, fruit, boiled eggs, cake, and muffins is served daily. Outdoor spaces include garden furniture and white vinyl seating around a fire pit. The property sits 52.5 miles from Albany International Airport, with Monument Mountain trailhead just 0.3 miles away. The Little Lion positions guests within 3 miles of the Norman Rockwell Museum, Chesterwood, and 1 mile from Fountain Pond Park.
Pros
Wood burner adds warmth and ambiance to common areas
Games, books, and DVDs available in the lobby
Mountain, garden, and landmark views from rooms
Proximity to hiking trails and natural attractions
Cons
Stockbridge Road runs between the property and mountain
52.5 miles distance from nearest international airport
“For travelers seeking a clean and budget-conscious stay near Great Barrington, this spot strikes a pleasant balance; the recent updates maintain its original charm, creating a restful ambiance. I particularly appreciated the outdoor amenities, like the fire pit and picnic tables, offering a relaxing space amidst the surrounding trees. It's a solid choice for those prioritizing value and a quiet night's rest.”
