We just needed a place to sleep for a ski overnight. We weren't going to get there until late Friday night and we were just going to be sleeping and then waking up and hitting the slopes so we didn't need anything fancy. This place was perfect, the woman on the phone and same woman when I checked in couldn't... more

Just got back from our long weekend in chilly, snowy New Hampshire. We needed an inexpensive place to stay, preferably something with some kitchen facilities so we could bring at least breakfast and lunch food. I found the Fraconia Notch Motel on Tripadvisor. The reviews were great, and the price OUTSTANDING, so I gave them a call. We had a... more

We arrived late and they left the key in an envelope outside the office for us. The room was spacious, clean, and had a very powerful heater that we definitely needed on this freezing night! I loved having the river running along the back of the rooms (although I never saw the elusive moose). In the morning I went to... more

The staff was pleasant and the sheets looked clean, but the room itself was dank and worn looking. The AC didn't work properly so the room was too hot, and the shower alternated between scalding and freezing with no middle ground. The picnic area was several old wooden picnic tables on a sloping riverbank. It was not an inviting place... more

My husband and I recently traveled to Lincoln for some snowmobiling and snowtubing. While looking at lodgings, I came across the Franconia Notch Motel. When the price for a room came up at $49.99/night, I was a bit incredulous. So, I called them and booked the room directly with the motel. Sure enough, the rate was $49.99/night. It was quick... more

This place was really cute. This was no 5 star hotel...it's a motel. It was priced very reasonably...even for "peak foliage season." I would prefer my room to smell more bleachy, but they changed the sheets everyday, and towels were clean. The small refridgerator in the room was on its' last leg, but still functioning for the time being. The... more

We just returned from a 3 day stay at the Franconia Notch Motel and it was also our 25th year of staying here. When we found out that the owner Ed O'Neil had retired two month's ago we thought for sure our vacation would not be the same and we considered canceling it. Anyone who knew Ed had the pleasure... more

My husband and I were looking for a place to stay for a couple of nights while exploring the White Mountains, and since this hotel had received some good reviews we decided to give it a try. We stayed in one of the cottages and were very pleased. The rooms were extremely clean and the bed was actually very comfortable... more

Me and my wife Sandy have been staying at Ed Obrian's motel for at least 12 or more years now and we feel it is our second home. Ed & Denese run a nice clean, quiet motel (no pets) and I enjoy talking to Ed, he's a down to earth guy, in fact every morning Ed has the coffee pot... more
