The Pub at Merry Acres

This is a very charming hotel. It could probably benefit from some upgrades but it is very clean and the staff is very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed our stay and would come back in the future.

Thanksgiving stay
The hotel was clean, had everything we needed, and was conveniently located. However, the roosters on the property woke us up at 4:00 a.m. and 6:00 a.m., and the surrounding neighbors in other rooms were very loud when they unloaded into their rooms around 11:00 p.m. Were it not for our very poor sleep we would have given a higher score.

This is a very historic hotel in Albany and I’m pleased to see it’s getting some TLC with new ownership. The Manor House Pub is a must visit with Allen and Joel being staples that bring me back year after year!
