With decades of experience in the hospitality industry, Rhonda Hastings knows what it takes to transform an accommodation into an experience that guests will keep coming back to. The Briarcliff Motel is an authentic 1960’s motel that Rhonda has breathed new life into with her personality and retro style.

No two rooms are the same at Briarcliff, and each is fitted with homey retro touches (including vintage-inspired mini-fridges and microwaves for added convenience). And while running a boutique hotel is like being a parent and you’re not supposed to have favorites, make sure to ask Rhonda about her most-loved room at the motel to learn more about the love she’s poured into the property while enjoying the continental breakfast around the rustic dining room table.

But it’s not just the rooms where Rhonda has left a personal touch. Guests are welcome to spend time in the common lobby area complete with a roaring pellet stove, books, games, and plenty of pamphlets to help travelers discover local attractions. Having lived onsite for a short time, it feels like forever with all of her efforts. Rhonda is also ready to give guests recommendations for everything from places to grab the best food and drink to the great outdoors.

Rhonda is truly the lifeblood of Briarcliff and has made it one of the best places to stay in the Berkshires for travelers who want to experience everything the region has to offer with their furry friends. Her personality and love for the expansive property and pets is infectious and is the reason why many guests continue to return to The Briarcliff Motel year after year when they visit the Berkshires.
