New facility with very cozy beds. Walking distance to downtown Woodstock. For the room price, would have been nice to offer a continental breakfast. Parking is some what limited, so don’t arrive too late. Housekeeping woke us up at 830am to ask if we were checking out. May want to invest in Do Not Disturb signs for rooms.

We arrived later in the evening so we did not actually interact with staff in person, however, the communication with staff through text worked great. We stayed in the River House and the room was very nice, clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the adirondack chairs outside of our room overlooking the river. The location was a short walk into the downtown shopping area. Virtual check-in and check-out was easy. We would definitely stay here again. The only recommendation I would offer is to provide an option of decaf coffee and creamers at the coffee bar in the building for the late comers who might enjoy an evening coffee.

Not what we expected for the price.

Part of the property looks like a travel lodge hotel. Half the rooms are on the parking lot. Decently maintained. However not what you expect for over $400/night. Slightly out of main part of town but walkable if town parking is an issue. Grocery across the street is a nice benefit. Free onsite parking was never an issue. Staff is pleasant. Definitely request a room at back of the property or in the river house. Otherwise you are overpaying.

Best Hotel on our Vermont Trip

Excellent all around. Loved the room, so comfortable and well furnished and, of course, the balcony looking over the river. Easy check-in and they accommodated my request fro a ground floor room. Parking right outside your room which helps a lot when you have a ton of luggage. We don't travel light!
