Transformation complete: Historic Seven Hills reintroduces itself to Berkshires summer travelers as a year-round boutique hotel

Just in time for summer travelers to the Berkshires, Seven Hills has completed a top-to-bottom renovation that has transformed the storied inn into a stylish, 57-room boutique hotel. Its 1911 Gilded Age legacy intact, Seven Hills enters the summer season as a year-round, full-service hotel with new light dining options, a children’s club and loyalty program. The new offerings will appeal both to returning guests and a new generation of Berkshires visitors—families, couples and solo travelers alike—drawn to the region’s wealth of year-round attractions.

Miami-based Bigtime Design Studios carried out the vision for the renovation, creating a sophisticated blend of old and new design elements for Seven Hills. There are new furnishings and textiles throughout, new guest bathrooms, fully renovated common areas, and updated exteriors, landscaping and pool area. Enhanced event spaces will continue to draw destination weddings while also accommodating high-level meetings and corporate retreats.

“It has been tremendously exciting to see our new vision for Seven Hills take shape,” said General Manager James Wolfe, who brings 17 years of senior leadership experience in the hospitality industry to his role at Seven Hills. “We believe guests will be delighted both by the enhancements and the original elements we’ve retained to ensure that the mansion’s original spirit lives on. And, we look forward to welcoming them back after the summer season to take advantage of the wealth of offerings the Berkshires holds for year-round travelers, from romantic fall getaways to family ski vacations.”
