Yes, it's an inn so small and a bit older, but that just adds to the cozy charm and makes it a perfect northern getaway. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the heated bathroom floor, towel warmer, and shower jets were such a nice touch. We were even welcomed with warm cookies waiting in the room. Breakfast is included and made fresh. You choose your options ahead of time, which was great. The TV in the room is small, but it fits the cozy vibe. There are plenty of books and games in the lobby and extra room for entertainment. One small note, I'd recommend staying in an upstairs room, as some of the floorboards creak and I imagine the sound carries to rooms below. Since we were only there for a short time, we mainly interacted with Peter at the bar and he was fantastic. He even added something to my drink to make it sweeter. I would absolutely stay here again on my next Okemo trip and would love to try dinner next time too.

It was definitely cold, but we caught beautiful sun and good conditions, so the whole trip felt worth it almost immediately. Jackson Gore was the highlight for me. The day we were there, it was pretty empty, and we were able to lap that area over and over again with no real lift line. There is a particular kind of joy in skiing 10 to 20 uninterrupted laps when the sun is out, the snow is holding up, and nobody is making you fight for space. Compared with the massive resorts out west, Okemo is obviously a different kind of mountain. Still, the terrain volume felt excellent for Vermont, especially because the trails were well kept, accessible, and easy to keep moving through. The whole place felt comfortable without being sleepy, polished without being sterile, and family-friendly without losing the actual fun of skiing. Ludlow and the surrounding area also add a lot to the experience. It has enough Vermont charm and alpine presence to make you feel genuinely away from New York, the tri-state area, or any other Northeast city you might be escaping from for the weekend. I only went once, but I left wanting to come back, bring my kids, and use Okemo as a starting point to explore more of the region.

I came here to ski on a Thursday morning. I was able to easily park in the main parking lot and…read morewalk to the lodge which was within a reasonable distance. Parking was free. From the main lodge are a couple of very short and slow lifts that take you up to areas which give you access to additional lifts. I really liked the variety of runs and that it wasn't overcrowded. I would love to try some of the other sections of the mountain in the future. The terrain park looks fun (if you're into that). My only complaint was how slow most of the lifts are... but that didn't detract much from my overall experience.

We arrived here in the late afternoon on a Monday. The property is about 3.5 miles southwest of the…read moretown of Ludlow on Hwy 103. You pull in at a motel that fronts the highway - the sign reads "The Pointe at Castle Hill". Regardless of which property you stay at, you check in there. Afterwards, you proceed up the hill to the inn. You park either just in front of the building or, if the spaces are full, there is a bit more space to the side of another building close by (probably their spa). We never heard any traffic noise during our entire stay. The building itself is about 120 years old, built by a former Vermont governor from this area. It still has the feel of a mansion, with lots of dark wood finishes inside. They have a small desk in the large foyer when you enter who can assist as needed. There is also a lounge with couches and chairs (for reading, mostly). The restaurant is also located on this level. The wide staircase to the upper floors is to the left off the foyer. The 2nd floor had at least 9 rooms. Down the hallway there was another smaller staircase up to the 3rd level, which I think had fewer rooms (I did not go up there). Our room was nice, with a queen sized 4-poster bed (you might enquire if they have a room with a king-sized bed). There was plenty of additional floor space, with a small table and chairs near the front windows. There are a number of relatively subtle upgrade touches like the phone line and water pipes for the adjoining bathrooms. A few things we noted about our room: * It had limited electrical outlets, which was addressed via power strips for each of the main plugs. * There is no central air conditioning, which is probably fine for this latitude (barring some heat wave). You can open the windows for a breeze, as needed. * The heating is central and is not turned on until some point in the season when it turns sufficiently cold. They do offer a space heater in the room (if needed), there is a fireplace (we didn't use ours), and the comforter was quite warm. * The amount of counter and table space available was limited (due to the small antique table). This wasn't a huge issue, but you have to be mindful of where to leave things like a wallet, glasses, phone, etc. You can book a massage at the spa, but we did not make use of that service. The hotel's fine dining restaurant is a great option for a special occasion meal. You should book this in advance (I'm not what is a safe time - at least a month or two, I'd guess). On the night we ate there, we had a formal oval dining room for the home to ourselves for half of our meal, as the larger dining room across the hall was full from a tour bus. The food was very good! They also apparently serve a modest breakfast here in the mornings starting at 8 a.m., but we were trying to get an early start each day and ended up getting breakfast in Ludlow instead. Given the somewhat isolated location, your dining options outside the hotel are a bit limited. There is at least one restaurant in Proctorsville (within 0.5 miles). There are a few restaurants in Ludlow, but many have varying days on which they're closed during weekdays. It may be easier on weekend, and is almost certainly easier in the winter, as there is a ski resort adjacent to the town. Also, Ludlow apparently suffered flooding in July of 2023, so that appeared to have impacted the number of businesses / restaurants that were open downtown (at least temporarily). Another observation about location - on the two full days we had in the area, we drove 45+ minutes to the north both days to check out a variety of places near Windsor and Lebanon. That wasn't a problem, but if I had the same itinerary again, I might have stayed one night at Castle Hill (and dined at their restaurant) and then moved on to lodging closer to other things we were touring. If you are going for a cozy / romantic country inn vibe, this is a great place to stay. There are just some trade offs vs. the location. Overall, we enjoyed our stay here.

Stayed here recently for one night and I have to call out the high points. The grounds of the…read more"Castle" building are spectacular. It's so pretty and the landscaping and flowers are wonderful. We loved the pool and hot tub as well. It's very peaceful and relaxing. The Castle building really is gorgeous as well. The staff at the hotel are very nice and want to be helpful. We used the spa and it was okay. The gym is large and well equipped. I had a massage which was okay. The room I was in had a window which faced the road and the traffic noise was louder than the spa music that was playing so didn't lend itself to relaxing. The massage was over $200 so I didn't think it was a great value because I didn't really feel fully relaxed after it. Ask for a treatment room on the pool side of the building if possible. We ate at the restaurant and it was pretty good. Prices were high but seemed to be about on par with another meal we had in the area. Service was nice. Our room was okay...very spacious but the lack of outlets is tough to manage in 2025 with so many devices to charge. I understand the building is very old so I get that there aren't a lot of plugs. My Verizon connectivity was terrible in the whole area and due to a wide-scale outage, Wifi was not working when I was there, which was problematic because I had to take a business call. That and a couple of other issues with our room led to us leaving early to find someplace that had a working Wifi connection but I have to say the staff were helpful and understanding. It was the off season and I think maybe they were a little short staffed but I get that it's tough for businesses these days. Overall, this place was fine and it is very beautiful.

It was wonderful. I am a clean freak and I couldn't believe that walking around on the floor in barefeet, my feet remained clean. Everything was immaculate. The owner is very friendly and helpful. There are thoughtful extras everywhere - huge variety of continental breakfast items in the office for guests, basket of free treats in the room, good-size fridge and real freezer in the room, super comfortable beds and bedding, pure white hefty towels, and big room and closet and drawers. The price was incredible and we were only a half hour from Okemo. We highly recommend the American Grill Restaurant and the Red Slate Restaurant. The food was delicious, staff and chefs amazing, and the prices like pre-pandemic. Couldn't believe it.

I discovered Snowdon Chalet by chance when coming up to see a World Cup race at Killington. Jen, the owner, was amazing. I had to leave early in the morning to catch the race, so she made a lunch bag with a fresh muffin, snack bars, a box of juice, and a yogurt- and had it waiting for me when I got out the door at 6:00am. The motel has a truly hip, retro architectural vibe. The rooms are all updated, always clean, and stocked with goodies. Jen and her husband are very accommodating- the customer service here is like no where else. Very family friendly and they truly care that you're enjoying your stay at the motel and finding great things to do in the area. We've priced other places in the area. But you really get a vastly better experience and value at Snowdon Chalet.
