The 71-room mid-range Middlebury Inn is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and looks lifted right out of a picture book on colonial New England. The hotel includes popular on-site Morgan’s Tavern, serving excellent farm-to-table meals, and Waterfalls Day Spa. Guest rooms are quaint and comfortable, with an antique ambience, though we did spot some wear and tear and outdated features that could use an overhaul. Additionally, some rooms are located in a 1960s motel-style annex that lacks the same atmosphere of the main buildings. Guests looking for a more secluded, stylish bed-and-breakfast should try the Amee Farm Lodge, which has rustic-chic rooms outside of Pittsfield, Vermont (a 20-minute drive from Killington), at a similar price point.

The historic Swift House Inn is located within walking distance of downtown Middlebury. The hotel's 20 rooms are spread throughout the Main House (formerly a Governor's Mansion), the Carriage House, and the Gate House. The Gate House rooms -- located a half-block from the Main House -- are the least expensive, in part due to traffic noise from Route 7. Room decor varies, allowing guests to choose a room depending on personal style. Some rooms offer a classic New England B&B vibe with floral wallpaper, fireplaces, and four-poster beds, while others are more understated, with soft-toned walls and tasteful furniture. One of the inn's highlights is its delicious and free breakfast, and an on-site restaurant, Jessica's, is a popular destination for both guests and locals.
