Sturbridge, Massachusetts

History

9 of America's Oldest Hotels

Established on the eve of the American Revolution, the Publick House in Sturbridge, Massachusetts, features just 17 cozy rooms.

The magnificent elm trees outside were planted by the original founder, Colonel Ebenezer Crafts, in 1791. Guests can settle in front of the open-hearth fireplace at the historic tap room, set in the inn's original 18th-century dining room, and enjoy dishes such as old-fashioned "Yankee" pot roast. The beautiful country homestead is a landmark in this small, yet vastly charming New England town, which is only about 60 miles from Boston.
