You can get a rare touch of urbanity in the sleepy Monadnocks in this upscale redbrick hotel is in the middle of Main Street. The hotel was retrofitted in 2000 from the former Goodnow department store, a Keene landmark for over 100 years. That accounts for some interesting room features, like a wall of exposed brick and 12-foot ceilings. Spacious rooms are furnished individually with reproduction Victorian antiques. "Chairman" suites have stairs that lead to an upper level, and come with two bathrooms. Ask for your free movie tickets and popcorn vouchers for the Colonial Theater across the street. Pros: Spacious, interesting, comfortable rooms; center-of-town location; free movie tickets. Cons: no restaurant or gym.
