Dirty room, flies in the sink, no AC, no HBO. Run down furniture. No WiFi in the room. $175 for one night is a joke compared even to Motel 6.

Hotel feels more like a motel than a hotel, but even though building is older, it has all amenities, except an elevator to get up to a room on the second floor. Had to carry my luggage up the steps, but the owner was kind enough to help if we needed it.

Walking into the lobby is nauseating! There is an OVERWHELMING smell of incense because they are burning it at the check-in desk. It permeates the entire lobby, which is open to the lounge/breakfast area, so that area is affected as well! Thankfully, we had a ground-floor room with a walkout slider so we could avoid the lobby! No way we were taking a chance with the in-house breakfast! The room was fine, but many simple things were missing that I had to go back to the lobby and request, like a working TV(It was unplugged, and the directions for the remote were missing a key step) There were no plastic cups, no tissues in the room, and the fabric chairs at the table were covered in stains and had tears in them. Not a great look!

My husband and I came into town for a wedding and not knowing the area we chose The New World Inn. We were very impressed with the kind, welcoming manner of the owner and how clean and comfortable the place and the beds were. The shower was better than mine at home! We had a nice balcony off our room which we used in the morning and evening. My husband liked the choices of the breakfast. He also loved the freshness of the coffee. I would highly recommend this Inn to anyone staying in the area.

Your filter we used to list only hotels near Barre VT that had pools available. When we arrived at New World Inn we learned that the pool was not available. It was being dug anew and had digging equipment in it, not water !!! The bathroom door had a loud skreech on the last 2 inches, because the hinges were very loud and needed a hammer or something to hit them, or oil them, and the sink had no plug !

Room was big but no furniture. Advertised wrong as no pool. Area felt unsafe. Many workers stay there and there are homeless nearby. It would work in a pinch but fine something else if possible

Economical stay. Friendly staff. The breakfast was small continental, just enough to get you started in the morning. Mattress was sagging at the edge, so I slept in the middle. Room was old but clean.

Last night stay

The stay was good. The size of the room was larger than expected and clean ws well as nice. My only complaint was the continental breakfast. It was not much to be desired. Only two types of cereal, small store bought mini doughnuts, and bite size muffins. There was no yogurt or eggs and bacon or sausage that are also part of a continental breakfast.

It worked for us and was OK.

The place is a little worn but it really worked well for us while we were in the area. The price was right and it was convenient for us.

Looks like this place is undergoing some upgrades which is good, it needs it. Loved that is was old fashioned, the room was quite clean but could use some cosmetic upgrades. Area was very quiet and so was the inn. WiFi was pretty bad, kept going in and out which made it hard to look up things around the area. I would not visit this town again as it was not what I was expecting. It looked like it was stuck in the late 80s to early 90s. Very expensive town. The Inn itself I can’t complain too much about. The room doors were hard to open and I couldn’t find the fitness center they advertised.
