2 Best Hotels in Montpelier, Northern Vermont

Montpelier's only major hotel reopened in spring 2024 after $4.5 million in repairs from July 2023's flooding; it benefits much from the State House across the street, hosting many of its visiting politicians, lobbyists, and business makers, not to mention tourists seeking a certain quality of accommodation. Guest rooms are classically designed and outfitted with standard but polished amenities, while suites may add crystal chandeliers, a covered porch, oversize spa showers, or Jacuzzi tubs.

The capital's most charming lodging option, this lovingly tended inn dating to 1830 has rooms filled with antique four-poster beds and Windsor chairs—all have private (if small) baths. Outside the formal sitting room is a sensational wraparound Colonial Revival porch, perfect for reading a book or enjoying a drink from the inn's full bar and watching the townsfolk stroll by. You can leave your car here and walk everywhere in town.
