This hotel is absolutely wonderful. Very dog friendly. Rooms are attractive and staff is friendly and helpful. Manchester, Vermont is a lovely town, with many shops and restaurants. You can hike, shop, sightsee or just sit on the large front porch and relax.
The only less than perfect part of our experience was in the restaurant - we had a couple of great experiences with Kayla for breakfast and Liz (I hope I remember her name correctly!) and Dylan in the bar - they took really great care of us! We had 2 incidents (one morning and one evening) where the service was poor. The morning crew on a particular day seemed utterly overwhelmed and wasn’t able to pay attention to us, and one evening the bartender (NOT Liz or Dylan) was really inattentive and distracted. The food was decent and the wine list was nice. Overall, it’s a reasonable option for a hotel restaurant - not the best, but respectable.
Enjoy your stay.
Hotel is within walking distance to downtown area and a short drive to the Equinox Preserve which is wonderful for hiking. The highest compliment I can deliver is the words of our son: "I wish we didn't have to leave."
The location is pretty convenient to get to most things in VT and I’d stay there again. Thanks John, Brian & team for making it a great trip!
The pool is very unique with a blue marble interior and salt water.
Customer service is excellent. Friendly, outgoing front of house staff always had a smile. The hotel is dog friendly and you will see lots of dogs but rarely will you hear them. Not sure how that is accomplished but, really, never once did the presence of dogs make us uncomfortable.
The Taconic is a good mix of the comforts of a larger hotel property but with more personal service so it feels a bit like a BnB. The rooms are nice and comfy and the grounds and common areas are lovely - indoor and outdoor fireplaces, a couple of cozy spots to relax and enjoy the fire, a porch with rocking chairs to watch the world go by, a nice pool, and a decent restaurant.
Excellent hotel, well fitted and thought out. Real attention to detail. Nice and close to walking trails and town. Staff were knowledgeable and welcoming. Only thing is to be aware of functions - we had a wedding party going on our arrival, not ideal for a travel- weary family but to be fair, all wrapped up by 11pm. Would definitely visit again.
We had very personal and professional service from the entire staff at the Taconic, particularly from John Burnham, the GM, and Brian who runs large group events who ended up being an incredible resource to help us plan our outdoor activities (even though we weren’t part of a large group - he was just that nice!). They really went out of their way to make our experience special, and made sure we found the best spots to do the things we love (hiking, eating & drinking). Everyone was warm and friendly, and treated us as if we were the most important guests there (which we undoubtedly were not.)
The most down to earth, genuinely nice people staff this quaint Inn. The grounds are very well kept and there are complimentary bicycles available to take a ride whenever you like
Outstanding is not a word I use lightly but the Taconic is outstanding in its class in Manchester. Imagine "country lodge" meets "high end Hampton Inn." The modern physical plant is beautiful and immaculate: large sweeping porch with a fire pit on one end; stone courtyard entrance; wonderful lobby and leisure spaces to read and sip wine; and a handsome restaurant and bar. The rooms are modern and nicely decorated. Seemingly endless supply of hot water which is important for a family of four! Nice lap pool surrounded by green space for people to sit in or play field games.
