Hotel

Enjoy the best of Vermont’s quaint feel with 5-star accommodations at Kimpton’s new boutique Taconic Hotel in Manchester Village. Kimpton’s first Vermont hotel, Taconic is inspired by traditional New England bed and breakfasts and small hotels and has 87 rooms including six suites and three cottages (named Worthy, Bennett and Nicklewhite) with views of the Green and Taconic mountain ranges.

 

The cozy, well-appointed rooms, designed by Peter Niemitz, have art by the Manchester Historical Society on the walls and oak furniture. The welcoming cottages are the ideal place for a family vacation as they have three guestrooms and comfortable furnishings.

 

Ski enthusiasts are close to trails for downhill and cross country at Stratton and Bromley, but the hotel also has plenty of activities for those that favor après ski-like excursions with local photographer Les Jorgensen. Guests can also hike on nearby trails in fall, spring and summer, order in-suite spa services, go for a run at the fitness center or take one of the hotel’s complimentary bikes for a spin down Main Street. The on-site restaurant, The Copper Grouse, helmed by chef Adam Raftery offers diners more than 100 wines and a menu made with locally sourced ingredients, so you don’t have to stray far to have a meal representative of Vermont’s best produce.
