We spent a couple of nights here during the off-season and enjoyed it very much. Although the room…read morewas a bit small, it was comfortable. The pool, hot tub, and sauna were welcoming as well. And we pretty much had it all to ourselves due to it being off-season. They provide a free tea and cookie hour from 4:00-5:00, but I would not recommend it. They need to offer organic teas and better cookie choices in our opinion. The staff were so very nice and offered a lot of advice about local businesses. We would certainly stay there again.

My fiancé and I spent two nights at the GMI and were over the moon with the service, room, and…read moreamenities that the Inn offers. We were immediately welcomed by the super friendly and knowledgeable hosts, who gave us a quick call when our room was ready a few hours early. Our room, located in the Mansfield House, was absolutely spectacular. Immaculately clean and impeccably designed, this room proved that the GMI blows away plenty of the more "luxury" hotel experiences that my fiancé and I have paid a pretty penny for over the years. If you enjoy historic charm with modern amenities, this is the hotel for you. The Inn's restaurant, The Whip, is also excellent, and I'd be remiss if I didn't mention the Inn's central location, ample parking, and loyalty program for return guests. Needless to say, we're planning on coming back as soon as we can.

Outstanding inn in Stowe, VT. So very glad we stayed here. Our room was very spacious and…read morecomfortable. The bed was ultra comfortable; pillows were awesome. The staff was warm and friendly. I only have one criticism. While the A/C was working, we had difficulty regulating it to feel comfortable. It was rather cold and clammy at night, but by morning, we felt fine. It wasn't so much the cold part that bothered me, but the clammy part was what got to me. Everyone kept saying how unseasonably hot and humid it was for Stowe, so who knows... maybe the A/C just had difficulty regulating itself... or we didn't know how to use it properly. It wasn't bad, per se, but it was a little uncomfortable some of the time. The room overall, though, was really great. Also, we loved that they had Netflix and Amazon Prime, so we could settle into the shows we were missing while traveling. That was a nice surprise ! Most hotels don't offer any of that. We had planned to dine out at one of the local restaurants, but we found out they were serving dinner at Grant's, the inn's restaurant. We were tired after traveling around all day, so we stayed at the inn and ate a great meal at Grant's. (See separate review for that.) Also, the common areas in the main building next to the restaurant are very tastefully appointed, spacious, with lots of games, books and sitting areas for people to utilize. We walked around them to see what there was but returned to our room to relax and watch some of our shows. My only regret was that we couldn't stay longer. One night in Stowe just isn't enough, especially at the Stowe Village Inn. Let's hope there will be a next time !

All these hotels have a fun vibe. We stayed in the main lodge. The rooms in the main lodge are very simple, the first floor of the lodge is the communal living room. The area is comfortable and decorated nicely, and has board games, shuffleboard, a few fireplaces and hot water for tea. Breakfast in the morning is included. They had fruit, pastries and a protein of sorts, coffee and hot chocolate. In the evening we enjoyed a cocktail at the bar, which has live music some nights 7:00-9:00. There is a hot tub you can reserve for 30 minute increments. We opted to pass due to the weather and our short visit in the area. In the summer, there is a pool, which looks like a lovely set up. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay. We did visit during peak leaf peaking season, so it was pricey for the room type, but that's what you can expect anywhere in Stowe in October.

The suite is located on the first floor right next to the main entrance door. Pros: large room with propane fireplace. Kitchenette w hot plate, pans, plates, glasses and small refrigerator. Bed is very comfy. Small table w chairs for dining. Two comfy swivel chairs to relax. Very clean. 20%discount at the Butlers Pantry. Parking in back of house. Locker for skis. Cons: very loud room as they allow the patrons for the restaurant to use the main entrance so people line up outside your door early and talk very loud. They have two other restaurant entrances and the owners really should make the patrons use that entrance vs the main entrance. So plan on it being loud from 0730 AM to after 1200pm. Yelp has a 20% discount if you check in on the app for 2 nights or more. The coupon is outdated and the owners never responded to my inquiry. The coupon should be taken down as I didn't see how it could be redeemed anyway since you must pay in full 14 days prior to your stay and the hotel is self check in. Overall, a lovely stay minus the noisy room.

Although it was a comfortable stay, it is misrepresented online, it's not luxurious, as the…read morepictures suggest. Motel vibes. We stayed for two nights and weren't able to have a fire in our room with a fireplace (that we specifically chose) because all of the wood they provide is wet or green. It was clean, but not immaculate. Sheets and towels aren't bright white, they have a used/yellowed look to them. The pool and the Jacuzzi are nearly pointless - severely outdated, grubby, and depressing to be honest. Breakfast is store-bought pastries, bagels... Kind desk staff.

There was an unlocked door connecting to another room which felt really unsafe, especially since it was all women in our group. The bathroom door didn't even close and the rooms looked nothing like the photos. It seemed like they just painted over everything to make it look nicer than it actually was. I mentioned the unlocked door to the front desk and the guy brushed it off like it wasn't a big deal. We ended up switching rooms but the new one wasn't much better. The AC made a loud ticking noise and kept shutting off in the middle of the night. None of us slept well. The shower was awful. Barely any pressure and no consistent temperature. You'd honestly be better off showering in the rain. The next morning we went to grab breakfast and bought a few muffins. Every single one had green fuzzy mold on it. We got a refund but they left the rest of the moldy muffins in the fridge which was honestly really gross. Overall the place just felt unsafe and not properly maintained. The only thing we liked was the pool and hot tub but that alone is not enough to make me want to stay here again.

Great service and delicious food. We loved the breakfast and were always excited to come back from our day to find the afternoon snack waiting for us. The location is perfect. Just 5 minute drive from main street Stowe. We enjoyed the game room and spent most of our evenings there. We also appreciated the hot tub with the view of Mount Mansfield. The inn had a menu of assorted food and drinks to choose from, and the order process was seamless. You order these items on their website and it is delivered to you. The room itself was spacious and comfortable. We had the ability to log into our Netflix account on the tv. I also liked the burning stove in the room. Everything was perfect. We would love to plan another visit to the Brass Lantern Inn. Exceptional service, food, atmosphere, and amenities.

We were treated every morning to a different delicious breakfast and a snack in the late afternoon. The beds are extremely comfortable and we spent time in the hot tub which was so relaxing. I highly recommend the Brass Lantern Inn as a place to stay in Stowe, Vermont.

Beds were comfortable and the staff was friendly and always willing to help. My family of 4 stayed comfortably in a two queen room attached to the main building. The nature path that backs against the property makes it a short stroll to the numerous shops and restaurants around the hotel. Really nothing negative to say. The room met our needs and the desk clerks and housekeeper gave us everything we asked for. Would stay here again.

TL/DR: The maintenance crew, the restaurant, and the location were all genuinely good. The room had…read morewiring and slip hazards that have no business existing at $300 a night, and their reservation system lost us entirely. There's a 4-star half a mile down the road. I don't normally review a place on a single visit -- I want to know a business is consistent before I say anything. The exceptions are when I'm traveling, or when the experience is memorable enough to warrant it, for good or ill. This one is both. First things first: the maintenance crew was EXCELLENT. They showed up fast when the AC wasn't working (in JULY), fixed what they could on the spot, and not once did anyone argue or imply we were imagining the problem. That's rarer than it should be. The manager also went out of her way with gluten-free dining recommendations around town, which -- as someone who travels with GF folks -- I don't take for granted. And the food at the on-site restaurant was great... though it may have been catered. Sadly, the maintenance crew cannot carry the weight of this building's problems. Let's start before we even got there. Booking took MONTHS to get corrected (not joking; started in late summer of 2025, a year beforehand). The phone number on their website, and on every confirmation email they sent, is an 888 number that does not reach the hotel. Not "takes a while to reach." Does not reach. Changes we made by phone evaporated. Voicemails went unreturned. Booking inside the wedding room block seemed to genuinely baffle whoever picked up. The payoff: we walked up to the desk Friday and were told our reservation had been CANCELLED, because their system still had us as a Thursday no-show. We'd changed it to Friday-Sunday weeks earlier. Confirmed it. By phone. On the number they gave us. Then, Room 306: 1. No phone in the room. No posted front desk number anywhere. To reach the front desk of the hotel I was standing inside of, I had to Google it on my cell -- and Google gave me inconsistent numbers. Seriously? 2. Both A/C units were broken or barely functional on arrival. Maintenance swapped the sitting-area unit same day and it was flawless afterward. The bedroom unit never worked correctly. Not once, all weekend. 3. Both bedside lamps and both nightstands -- each with a 3-prong outlet and a USB port -- all ran off ONE wall outlet, through a daisy chain of splitters and extension cords. The wall switch on the left did absolutely nothing. The one on the right killed the lamps AND the nightstand power, which is where my medically necessary CPAP was plugged in. So both nights I had to unplug both lamps by hand in order to sleep, and every morning plug them back in. Inconvenience aside: that is a LOT of load on one outlet. 4. The bathtub had no anti-slip surface, no grab bar, and sat at a genuinely noticeable tilt. I slipped more than once and caught myself. I got lucky. Someone won't. 5. The bathroom has no vent. Its ventilation is a wooden-framed window in the wall by the room door -- no screen, no frosting, no privacy anything. Open it and you're open to the weather and to whoever's walking past. 6. That bathroom's only light is a dim fixture hung low over the sink. It doesn't light the room, and I hit my head on it repeatedly. The two overhead lights in the room proper are the opposite problem: bright enough to give you a headache. There is nothing in between. 7. The TV is enormous and mounted where you have to crane your neck sideways at it, instead of on the wall the bed faces. Someone chose that on purpose. 8. Anemic water pressure, and several minutes of running the tap before anything got warm. All of this ran roughly $300 a night. I want to be fair to the people who work here, because they were good to us every single time. But no amount of good service fixes four devices chained out of one outlet, or a tilted tub with nothing to grab. Fix the wiring and the bathroom and this is a different review. Until then -- there's a 4-star HALF A MILE DOWN THE ROAD that's better in every way that matters.

We had one little glitch and it was taken care of immediately and even though it wasn't a huge issue to us, we were told we were being compensate and we weren't even particularly upset or even thought we would get a discount. They are that serious about your stay being seamless and perfect. When we first booked, I wasn't so sure about staying there as we hadn't been to Stowe in 15 years, but when we arrived I wasn't so sure blown away! We are definitely going back and will be staying with Sun and Ski Resort. They have a nice little complimentary breakfast, coffee all day, and cookies in the afternoon. For a fee, there is a bowling alley and miniature golf which are extremely well maintained. The pool was very clean and the lounges soooo comfy with cushions on them.

Our experience at Stoweflake Mountain Resort & Spa was extremely disappointing…read more When we arrived, our room was 82 degrees. We turned the thermostat down to 60°F with the fan on high and waited over two hours, but the temperature never improved. After reporting the issue, we were moved to another room, only to find it had a portable air conditioner that couldn't keep up with the size of the room. There was also a note on the thermostat stating that the central air conditioning was not working due to ongoing renovations. The most frustrating part is that we were never informed before our arrival that the air conditioning was unavailable because of renovations. This is something guests deserve to know in advance, especially during the summer. Beyond the air conditioning issues, the hotel is clearly showing its age. Many areas appear worn and in need of maintenance, with few signs that repairs or updates have been made. It no longer reflects the quality you would expect from a resort. Customer service throughout our stay was disappointing. While we were eventually moved to another room, there was little acknowledgment of the inconvenience or effort to make the situation right. Ultimately, our experience was so poor that we decided to leave the resort that same night and book a room at another property rather than continue our stay. That was an unexpected expense and inconvenience that could have been avoided with better communication and customer service. For the price of this resort, I expected much better transparency, accommodations, and guest service. Unfortunately, I can't recommend staying here.
