The staff and service were wonderful. We were treated like family. The food was delicious! The room was perfect, spacious, and beautiful. We wish we could have stayed longer!
We really enjoyed the location of the Inn. Very tranquil. The main floor was very welcoming and cozy. Games were available for quiet playing and there were a variety of drinks available at the bar. Breakfast was very good. Nice choices from the menu. Service took some time. We wanted to leave to go skiing but waited at least 30 min for breakfast to arrive. Room was spacious in Norman Rockwell room. Kids enjoyed sinfle bed nooks. Lots of natural light to wake up to in morning. Saw a few spiders on floor. Probably goes with age of building. Otherwise very clean. Only drawback...we purchased on hotels.com. Said this was final price..nothing owing. Upon departure from inn we were told we owed money for "extra guests" in room even though there were 5 beds in room. My husband had asked upon arrival if we owed anything or if all was taken care of and they said we owed nothing. A bit upsetting.
We decided to take an Autumn trip to Vermont to see the foliage. The West Mountain Inn is a great place to stay because it's off the beaten track but close enough to town to enjoy shopping restaurants etc. Its actually quite self contained with beautiful grounds that include gardens for strolling and their own hiking trails in the ' back forty'. We had a great stay in the Govenor Chittenden room with great views and a nice sitting area. Breakfast which is included is off of a small complete menu that includes pancakes, oatmeal and various egg dishes. We had dinner one night and it was wonderful too. I had the venison special and my husband had salmon. There is a nice little full bar and private sitting areas on the main floor. The only place with a TV was in a secluded area off the bar, where someone was catching up on football. People were reading or visiting and playing board games. The staff is friendly but not obtrusive and very attentive. A nice detail was the coffee, tea station with fresh cookies available anytime. The room was clean, cozy and comfy.
Beautiful old B and B with amazing fall foliage surrounding it. We stayed in the main building and it was great but we were on the 3rd floor so you needed to be able to climb narrow stairs. Wonderful breakfast. Would definitely stay here again.
I always enjoy coming back to the WMI where you feel like part of the family. The rooms and public areas are very comfortable. The breakfasts are fantastic, as are dinners if you choose to eat there. I always enjoy hiking in the woods onsite and along the river. There is easy access to all there is to do around Manchester and Bennington. I love coming back again and again.

Liked: Staff & service
Oldy but goody
The window air conditioner noise woke me up my first night.. so I just turned it off the next night.
The West Mountain Inn was the perfect setting for a mid-week art reunion with 3 of my friends. The staff couldn't have been more helpful. We enjoyed the sprawling lawns, the mountain vistas, and the clean, fresh air. I hope to return for an annual getaway.
The room was so comfortable with a fireplace, TV and handicapped access. The food (breakfast and dinner) was outstanding. The staff go out of their way to make,you,feel at,home. Scenery outside the,window was,so beautiful. Had a light dusting of snow,on s
An amazing place amid the beauty of the Vermont hills. My personal favorite.
The staff go out of their way. The food is amazing. Our room was perfect with a fireplace and an amazing view of the alpaca.
This was our third stay at the West Mountain Inn. We come back whenever we are in southern Vermont. The rooms are extremely comfortable and very clean, each with an exquisite view. Lovely art throughout the inn, friendly staff and a golden retriever!
We found this gem only 20 minutes from home and are already planning to return in the spring. We were welcomed and made to feel like family from the moment we walked in.
The ONLY heads up I would give is that there are only two rooms available with a television in them. Other than that..... perfect. Will definitely recommend and stay again.

Liked: Room comfort
Charming facility; inconsistent service.
My wife and I recently chose the West Mountain Inn for a birthday getaway. It was a pleasant few days. The property and inn are charming. The views are lovely and very New Englandiee The location felt isolated, but near enough to Manchester and Williamstown to offer enough things to do if we chose to leave the property. Our room was very comfortable and clean. The bed and bedding were agreeable. We made good use of the wood burning fireplace in the room. Although we did have to forage for wood with minimum assistance from the staff. A weak link in the room, and surprising for a property of this caliber, were the course paper products - tissues and toilet paper. Also, internet access was sketchy. The front desk and wait staff ranged from very pleasant to stiff. Fortunately more of the former. The breakfasts outshone the dinners. We chose for convenience sake to eat a couple of our dinners at the inn. While the dinners were good, our consensus was they catered to a blander palate than we are used to. Having stayed at a number of inns and B & Bs, we sensed the inconsistent service was probably due to the lack of active owner participation in the daily running of the operation. With inns of that size we usually would have interacted with the owner(s) at some point during our stay. That wasn't the case this trip. Would we go again - yes. The positives outweighed the less than positives.
Absolutely, a perfect escape from reality. Right away you feel at home and relaxed! Amie & Marybeth make you feel very welcome from the second you get there! The staff is amazing & personable, the grounds are beautiful, food is excellent! Cannot wait to go back again in the spring! And even more excited to get married there next summer!
We have been coming to the West Mountain Inn for years, and the inn has maintained its charm and coziness throughout. We love walking the expansive grounds and just relaxing in the welcoming lounge. Its such a special place and we look forward to our next visit!
Been going here for w0 years..rooms need upgrading/time to add TVs folks/food was expensive and certainly not memorable/way over priced for what you get/my last trip here
