We stayed at this hotel to take advantage of the July 4th concerts at Tanglewood. Hotel was great for that purpose- close with a back roads route to the concert venue!! Beautiful area but we did not seek out hiking trails on that trip!!

Here is something I found from USA Today: It is virtually impossible to rent a hotel room in the United States if you are under 18, the legal age of majority in all states. The two basic reasons for this are liability and contract enforcement. Contracts signed by minors are not legally enforceable, putting the hotel at risk if underage patrons do not pay. Also, hotels do not want to take legal responsibility for minors. If something should happen to a minor during the stay, the hotel could be held liable. The drinking age in all states is 21, and most states have laws holding the establishment liable for serving alcohol to underage drinkers. Many hotels have mini-bars in each room or offer alcoholic beverages through room service. These establishments could be at risk if an underage renter decides to imbibe. Most states allow hotels to use discretion in setting minimum age requirements. Upscale hotels, particularly those located in known party destinations, may prefer to cater to an older, more sedate clientele. These hotels typically set a higher minimum age requirement, which may be 21 or even 25. Although many hotels set minimum age requirements, certain alternative lodging establishments cater to a young adult crowd. Many youth hostels and guest houses have no minimum age requirement. Some college dorms rent rooms on a nightly basis when school is not in session. Some bed-and-breakfast locations allow younger renters, while others prefer older guests. Special Considerations Some hotels are willing to relax their rules for guests with a major credit card. You might be able to negotiate a stay in exchange for a hefty, refundable security deposit. If you are under 18, you might be required to present notarized permission to travel signed by one or both parents. Call the hotel or other establishment before your trip and discuss your situation with a front desk agent.

I agree with all of the above. Rules can vary based on price, or if there's some kind of special event going on. I would call the hotel. I recall the front desk being very courteous.
