Hotels near Sweet Heart Memorial in Devens

Hehe hahaha

Our family stayed at SpringHill Suites North Devens Corner two weeks ago. Although we were in town for an athletic event at Progin Park we were NOT part of the Mass Soccer Association group staying at the hotel. I have no issues with this physical property-it is fairly new and well maintained. Outside of the hotel was clean and well kept. There were luggage trolleys available and working elevators to the three floors. The first floor included a medium size heated pool area and separate workout/fitness room. All equipment was in working order and the pool area was clean when we arrived. We also used the laundry facilities while we were there. All machines were working and only $1 a load. The laundry area did have a lot of debris and trash on the floor though. We arrived a little early and after a mix up with our room, we settled in. We were notified upon arrival that the hotel was overbooked. Which was a huge disappointment to be moved from our pre-booked room. We are rewards members and book using the app for this very reason, so we will never be bumped from a room-but we were. That issue was cleared up with the help of front desk staff. I found all the staff to be friendly and accommodating. There is an outdoor seating area and an indoor lobby seating area where the breakfast is held. The free complimentary breakfast was good with a variety of cold items, two types of fresh fruit and three hot items (breakfast sandwich, sausages and pre-cooked omelet bites). This area was clean and the staff was VERY attentive and kind. Pool met our needs and was heated and clean-no hot tub. The room we had was a suite and had two full size beds and an older style pull out couch. The room was clean, bathroom was a split and was clean. Beds were comfortable and clean. There was only one TV for the space. Kitchen area had a sink, microwave and mini fridge. All were clean with a small coffee maker. After checking in and getting settled we used the pool and went to our event and dinner. When we returned we saw a very different hotel. The hotel was in fact sold out and the lobby area was FILLED with parents from the Youth Soccer Organization event. They had taken over the lobby and breakfast area and were occupying every table. There were also excessive amounts of alcohol and drinking. In coolers, open containers, in bags on the floor, set up on the tables-pretty much everywhere. It was very apparent that these 50 or so people were intoxicated. Where are all their children you ask? Running wild in the hotel. We saw kids ranging from 3-15 trashing doors and hallways, spilling drinks on the floor and carpet, grinding food into rugs and on doors. While returning to our room I observed kids opening creamers in the free coffee area and pouring them on the floor and throwing them at doors. It was disgusting. I am appalled that a hotel would allow and encourage (by allowing them to occupy and drink in this public space) such behavior. I have stayed at Marriotts aroun

On March 19, my sons and I pulled off a wonderful, surprise 75th birthday dinner party for 26 at The Groton Inn, with friends and relatives flying in from as far away as Seattle and Charleston, SC. It was 5 star in every aspect. Everyone raved about the quality of food. I tasted all three hors d'oeuvres and loved them all. Even our 3 and 6 year old grandchildren ate them! Several told me how much they loved the short ribs. Utterly delightful and like nothing I had tasted before! Those choosing the chicken entree found it delicious, as did those with the vegetarian linguini choice. The steak was very tasty and exceedingly tender for a NY *****. The corn bisque was devine. The arugula salad light and a perfect transition to the main course. Portions were huge. I was afraid, in advance, of noise and distraction by servers between courses, but not once did I hear the sound of a dish clanging against another! It was a 5 star service. Our grandchildren were taken care of perfectly, as if they were tiny adults. They felt like it and consequently behaved as well. The cake presentation was fabulous, with lights dimmed and expertly timed! And the ”service captain” divided the remaining cake in thirds and boxed it so that it was more manageable to take home. So delicious! Dolce Amor, the local Sicilian baker, is incredible!!!!! And I have traveled to 40+ countries and lived in France and NYC where food is fantastic. The Groton Hill punched every possible ”ticket.” But the captain went over the top with her service, offering to take my coat moments after I walked in to the SURPRISE greeting. Such a perfect gesture and an unscripted one! She also looked after those of us lingering with hotel guests, even getting us cups of water. She was simply great. I know the staff was weary, but she never stopped. The room was so beautifully set - flowers and placecards - oh I was so pleased. But guests commented to me as well on such details. They also loved their sleeping rooms, specious, comfortable and quiet. And the Front Desk was an accomplice in the crime of the SURPRISE. They held ”props” for my son from CA and he even dressed in costume in their midst. They ensured all guests had their welcome bags, carefully segregating the two for the grandchildren. Everyone was thrilled and seemingly very happy having attended. The morning after, my husband and I were there at 7 for early risers, headed to the airport or home by car, for a lovely and bountiful buffet breakfast. Compliments streamed. I never heard a single complaint, if there was one. I am so grateful to The Groton Inn for orchestrating such a fun and memorable event, beginning with Eleanor and the Sales Staff for their advice each step along the way. Nancy

Great pick for a simple getaway! This is our second time in the area, we previously stayed at the Hampton Inn but our experience at Clarion Inn was better, and cheaper all around. The big selling point for me was the price and fact that it was recently renovated. We stayed for two nights, Tuesday July 5 to 7th and had zero issues overall. We checked in late and there was no wait, the hotel felt empty. Our room was 254 which is a corner unit on the second floor and easily accessible from the outside. At first I thought this was a bad sign that we had to reach our room from outside stairs but this was actually a shortcut and made coming in and out a lot easier. We were able to park just steps away from the door. The lobby was clean and presentable, staff was friendly. The room was nice and modern. Bathroom had a large shower instead of a tub and huge counter for the sink which I enjoyed. Bed doesn't seem to have a new mattress, it felt soft and sunken in at times, but the furniture, tv, carpeting and everyhting else in our room was modern. I asked for some extra shampoo at one point and the girl at the front counter was so nice, she offered me extra items if I wanted - they have everything in stock free of charge if ever you need deodorant, toothpaste, toobrushes, shower caps, etc, feel free to ask! Since we stayed on weekdays the entire property felt empty, I think we came across just two other guests during our stay. No noise at night, no noise in hallways - it was amazing. When we were there, the complimentary breakfast was pretty basic, there's coffee, juices, milk, yogourt, some fruits, cereal, muffins/granola bars and a pancake and waffle maker. The pancake maker was really cool, since it is an automated machine. Just place a plate under and with the push of a button, 2 pancackes will be made fresh and rolled out for you. I wish there were hot food items like eggs, sausage or bacon, but I guess with covid and with how empty the hotel was during our stay, it might not make sense to offer these items. (I recently read that the hotel does offer these hot breakfast items, but maybe just on weekends??) My suggestion would be to have at least some hard boiled eggs, these could be kept in the same fridge as the yogourt and can stay good for a few days so it would reduce waste (as opposed to scrambled eggs/omelettes). Note that there is a 99 restaurant located on this property so if ever you want to order something quick for lunch or supper, it's super convenient. I would come back, great value and great experience as a whole.

Initially we contacted the sales department for a welcome party at the restaurant for 15 people, a few of whom had hotel reservations for a couple nights stay (including us), as they were coming in from out of state. My wife and I explained that this was a separate party from a rehearsal and we wanted to just order appetizers for everyone and pay for a couple of rounds of drinks. As the group size grew to 23, we were then told (the week before) that we could no longer just order drinks and appetizers and would need to order a complete dinner off their special dinner menu. They claimed it wasn’t worth their kitchen’s effort to serve us just appetizers and drinks. We explained that we were expecting to pay around $600-$800, as our group likes to drink and eat and that several couples would probably stay for dinner after. It didn’t matter, the sales department just said we couldn’t have our party at the hotel restaurant unless everyone ordered dinner. We ended up having a party at the local Gardner Ale house which turned out really great! We spent over $900. Later, my wife and I returned to the hotel and went to the restaurant, just to see how busy it was. At about 8pm and they may have had just 50 people in the restaurant on a Saturday night. Seems to be a poor management decision as a couple of our guests ended up canceling their reservations after hearing about the last minute change from the hotel. In addition, we did stay at the hotel. Our room was physically dirty (needed a good vacuuming) and there was someone smoking in the room across the hall, (we could smell it in the hall and in our bathroom). This was the first night we were there. After mentioning this to staff they came down and agreed they could smell it, but just ended up spraying air freshener. They said they weren’t sure which room it was coming from. The smoking continued until the next day.

Great location. Pools awesome for the family. The only reason Im giving this review is because of one person who made our Christmas weekend. A nice young lady named Kelsey. We struggled to get proper service until she came on. She went above and beyond to make our stay as comfortable as possible. She was the saving grace. Literally moving as quickly as possible for any need. When I went to the front desk unless she was working. I would wait 5 10 15 minutes for help. I checked in on Christmas eve an Checked out Monday. All 4 days the only time I felt helped was when she was working. I probably would have checked out otherwise. I would have went across the street to the Regency. When I come back. Which I do often, only the night usually. Some staff were OK, there was only one who truly knows what customer service. Thank you to her. My stay waz great because of it.

Definitely enjoyed our visit to the area. The hotel was clean and the rooms were excellent. Our room seemed to be updated and very comfortable. The room had a full size bed with a small coffee bar area. The bed was super comfortable and the pillows provided for a couple of nights of good rest. Every morning we woke up and were able to get a good breakfast to start our mornings off. The hotel has a swimming pool which we did not have the time to use but the workout facility was small but ample enough to get a decent workout. A major plus was the fact they had a charging station which we were able to use to charge our vehicle. If we are ever back in the area I would definitely stay here again. The amenities plus the price makes this a good deal.

We live in the area and checked in for one night while we were having some work done on our house. They let us check in at 9:00 AM and use the room all day with no extra charge. The room was very clean. At 3:00 PM, after we had been in the room for several hours, someone checked in next door and was having a very loud dance party. I called the Front Desk and Allie offered to (1) tell the folks next door to turn it down and (2) allowed us to move to a quieter room with no adjoining room (the dance party was in an adjoining room). There was no extra charge for the room stay or the move (altho we left a nice tip for housekeeping!) Three cheers for Allie at the Front Desk who was understanding and very accommodating and did ask the dance party to quiet down (they did!) We learned there was a high school girls soccer tournament in the area and there were teens booked in many area hotels. When we went downstairs to get the new room key, Allie was instructing one of the adult chaperones on the hotel rules, including quiet time at 10pm. We never heard any noise again and had a restful evening/night. The room was very clean and the beds were super comfy (on the firmer side, which we like). Would not hesitate to recommend!
