The Hostelz.com Review
Cranmore Mountain Lodge is off the beaten path, so the traffic noise is minimal. Breakfast is included -- the menu is quite varied and very good. There is a path in the back leading to hiking trails that are easily followed. They really embrace the green scene too, with recycling programs, chemical-free cleaners, and many reminders to travel lightly.
The Location
Despite being slightly off the beaten path (read, not on the main North Conway drag), it's close enough to get to town within minutes. The location can't be beat -- it's about a mile from the North Conway strip but in a superbly quiet location near hiking trail-heads. North Conway's main shopping area is just a few minutes drive from the inn. Free passes for Great Glen Trails are also provided by the lodge.
Rooms and Bathrooms
We love sleeping with the windows open and hearing the rushing brook outside -- the rooms are clean and the beds are comfortable. The door locks are secure, the bathrooms and rooms are well lit, and it feels like the shower is a waterfall flowing from the Gods! They even have some pet-friendly rooms. Babe Ruth used to own and vacation here, and they've done a great job of memorializing him. You can sleep where the Babe used to sleep, surrounded by historic photos.
Common Spaces
It has a beautiful dining room and the breakfast is incredible! There's a separate kids menu with twelve items to choose from. The adult menu is equally grand and the food is filling and scrumptious. We are impressed that there's a completely gluten-free breakfast offered too. One of the views from the dining room is the nice little pond in the backyard -- we have seen ducks swimming and a heron fishing. The kids enjoy the activities outside on the grounds as well as the game room inside -- they're making several new friends on the first day of our stay. The hostel has a great pool and deck and a hot tub (which is awesome).
Summary
We have stayed at big luxury inns and at small housekeeping cabins in the White Mountains. We think that this place is the perfect spot. The rooms are historic, yet very clean and beautiful. The breakfasts are gourmet, with immediate coffee. There's a pond out back with happy, croaking frogs, and on the edge of the property flows a crystal mountain stream over ancient rocks with a path to walk along. All this, and you are also close to area attractions. The hosts are always available, yet never intrusive. We wouldn't stay anywhere else, after decades of visiting the White Mountains of New Hampshire.

Hostelz.com Guest Reviews
I adore this place. Pricey for a budget traveler to do an extended winter stay but well worth it for a night or two during a week long winter tip when the bivy gets old. The amenities are priceless, the rooms are no more spartan than any climber or outdoorsman shouldn't be able to stand, the food is appropriate, and the owners have been absolutely gracious. — David L. (2007-01-15) The Cranmore Mountain Lodge bunkhouse is a climber's dorm and it's perfect for all of us climbers that would rather spend their money on gear. The breakfast you get for the money ($25 per night for the bed, use of the heated pool and hot tub) is a great deal! Also, Kevin and Jeanie, the owners are wonderful people. I recommend the Cranmore Mountain Lodge bunkhouse to all outdoor enthusiasts. Stay in the Inn if you don't like the conditions in the bunkhouse. — Mike Braco (2005-02-27) Tacky. It needs a lot of updating. The facilities are poor. The pictures on the Web don't reflect the actual conditions. The breakfast was not like a Bed and Breakfast's. The owners are not the most gracious people in the world. — Anonymous (2004-08-07)
