White River Junction Vacation Packages

This is a gorgeous historic property nearly 100 years old. With this in mind, my remarks are personal issues, not necessarily those of all travelers. I am extremely allergic to mold and mildew and just imagine a 100 year old building. While not visible, there is that “ old” smell that never leaves. This is particularly in the hallways and public spaces, NOT IN THE ROOMS. The property is beautiful, refreshing and restful. The back courtyard particularly was inviting. The room was clean. This is a personal issue and one every property seems to have adopted and that is using a duvet on the bed. They are way too hot for me and when stripped away, there is little choice of cover. Whatever we had before these things became popular was better for me. I just strip it off, but not convenient. Small rooms and small bathrooms are a challenge for elderly (83) visitors. One chair is challenging as someone always has to sit on the bed. Loved the refrigerator and Keurig. The small bathroom with basically no vanity space is a challenge. We did ok for overnight, but extended stay would stretch our limits of comfort. The continental breakfast was modest. One cereal choice plus oatmeal. Pastries, coffee bagels. Loved the greater neighborhood as we walked around to see the beautiful historic houses.

Beautiful historic building with charm and character. Our room was big and very comfortable, the bed was great and most importantly the HVAC was whisper quiet. Only issue was the elevator was out of order but not a big deal as they gave us a room on the second floor.

The uniqueness of the '30s/40's era vibe brought us back for another visit.It was like stepping back in time. The movie theaters are classic. Sages is the adjoining cocktail lounge complete with cosy,stuffed chairs,40's style decor.Again, we felt like we stepped back in time. The cocktails were quite unusual and thoughtful and we wish we could have tried them all. Tapas and waffles! So yummy. The staff at the hotel were gracious, friendly, helpful.And there was a never-ending supply of plain or cucumber ice water at the front desk. The beds were crisply sheeted and super comfy. Best part? The record player in the room with a whole library of vinyl to choose from.We enjoyed some classical tunes and some Beatles! Though the town itself has seen a bit of degradation since our last visit, with some noticably vacant store fronts, there are still some cool boutiques, art galleries and eateries.And check out the huge co-op grocery store.
