3-star hotels in Brattleboro

A shortlist of 3-star stays for a Brattleboro break in southern Vermont, gathered for couples, families and skiers who want a base among the bookshops, co-ops and riverfront of a lively Main Street.

Staying in Brattleboro

Brattleboro is southern Vermont's counterculture holdout: bookstores, art co-ops, a farmers market that is a scene, and the Connecticut River at the bottom of Main Street. It sits at the bottom of I-91, with the Molly Stark Trail running west over the mountains, and the Amtrak Vermonter stops downtown, so a car is optional in town and useful for the valleys.

These hotels are spread beyond the town itself, in Brattleboro and in the surrounding villages of Dover, Wilmington, Guilford, Putney, Newfane, Jacksonville and Westminster. That makes the list suit different trips: couples wanting a quiet inn, families after a pool and playground, and skiers aiming at Mount Snow and Stratton. Weekday stays are easier to book than fall weekends.
