THE PORCHES INN AT MASS MOCA, North Adams

Housed in six vibrant 1890s Victorian row houses connected by two porches lined with rocking chairs, The Porches Inn At Mass Moca stands directly across from the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art. This 4-star North Adams hotel features rooms with retro furniture, vintage lamps from the 1940s-50s, and contemporary pieces in deep taupe. All bathrooms include slate floors, interior windows with frosted glass, and mirror frames created from the building's original window frames. The property contains three extended-stay suites, each with a bedroom, living room, and kitchenette equipped with a refrigerator, microwave, coffee maker, and dining service for four. Every floor displays art pieces and portraits of historical figures-including five presidents-who have visited. Guests have access to a 425-square-foot fitness center overlooking MASS MoCA and a separate building housing a sauna with changing rooms. Located near the highest peak in Massachusetts, The Porches Inn sits within 0.5 miles of Berkshire Emporium & Antiques and Berkshire Art Museum, and just 0.5 miles from Windsor Lake.
