Fodor's Expert Review The Weston

For one of the few true luxury lodging experiences in Vermont, head to this stunning boutique hotel in a white clapboard building just down the road from Weston’s town center. Each of the exquisitely designed guestrooms is completely unique but all come with lush fabrics, hand-carved four-poster beds, and antique furniture, giving the entire property a distinct Old World style that highlights its history but never feels fussy or old-fashioned. Guest rooms and common areas alike are decorated with vintage artwork, patterned wallpaper, and ornate mirrors. While the Weston clearly wants to appeal to style mavens (or anyone with an Instagram account), it also doesn’t forget to skimp on the amenities. Bathrooms are bright, spacious, and modern, with walk-in showers and luxury toiletries. Several rooms have separate clawfoot tubs, private outdoor patio areas, and working gas Franklin stoves or fireplaces for the ultimate cozy night in. The on-site restaurant, the Left Bank, is another gem, with a delightful menu of French bistro favorites that puts an emphasis on all things local; it also has one of the more impressive wine lists in the state. Rounding out the on-site perks is a holistic wellness center that includes a spa, gym, and yoga studio.
