The Best Hotels to Book In and Around Barre, Vermont
Enjoy quaint Vermont charm, world-class sculptures and east-coast skiing while staying at one of these Vermont beach hotels in Barre.
The small city of Barre, just 60mi (97km) from the Canadian border, was once famous for its granite, attracting international sculptors to come and practice their art. Now, it’s a picturesque Vermont city, with boutique shops and cozy cafes to explore. Schuss down the slopes at nearby ski resorts, Stowe and Killington, or catch a show at the Barre Opera House.
1. The Village Inn of Woodstock
Inn
Take a trip back to the Victorian era at this bed and breakfast, located an hour from Barre. Kick your boots off by the roaring fireplace in your suite, before ducking into the onsite tavern, where you can enjoy a complimentary drink on arrival. Breakfast is a highlight here – ask for the English muffin, topped with farm-fresh eggs and Green Mountain Smokehouse bacon.
2. Trapp Family Lodge

4. Killington Mountain Lodge
Hotel, Apartment
Golf lovers should look no further than the Killington Mountain Lodge, an hour south of Barre. Situated on the sixth hole of the local golf course, you can roll out on bed and onto the green in moments. Come winter, the slopes of Killington Ski Resort are just two miles (3.2km) away. Sink into the outdoor, illuminated whirlpool, surrounded by snow, before digging into a pub-style meal at the sports bar.
5. Mountain Top Inn & Resort
Inn
The name doesn’t lie – this hotel lies atop of Central Vermont Mountain, surrounded by 700 (283ha) acres of meadows and woodland. In summer, you can swim from the resort’s private lakeside beach. Once snow falls in winter, explore cross-country ski trails from the front door. For ultimate privacy, book one of their rustic cabins, which are not only dog-friendly but come with a wood-burning fireplace to warm up after a day in the snow.
6. 506 On The River Inn
Inn
Families should head to 506 On The River Inn, a boutique hotel just an hour south of Barre. Kids will love their Explorer’s Program with animal track hunting in summer, and snowman building, plus roasted s’mores in winter. You can quietly slip off with your other half for much needed ‘adult time’ in the pool and sauna, or sip a black pepper negroni in the bistro, infused with herbs from the inn’s own garden.
