Beautiful Vermont Inn with exceptional breakfast: changes everyday - we had frittata, fresh fruit, steel cut oats fried with maple syrup and pecans and always muffins or other baked goods. Our hosts were friendly, accommodating and know the area well. We had room 3- spacious and comfortable. When it snows there is a 5 mile snowshoe,cross country trail on the property for guests only. We were there to attend a show at the Vermont Jazz Center in Brattleboro-about 20 min away. Also hiked Hogback mountain and went to the award winning woodworkers: Applewoods. Excellent restaunts nearby and in in Brattleboro- ate at Indian Marsala House- flavorful. Wish we could have stayed longer to go to the Hogback Brewery, check out music and art in Brattleboro and hike more. Thanks !

Fantastic!!! 10 out of 10
Fantastic experience. Very clean, quiet, quaint place. Brian the owner made me feel right at home upon arrival showing me around and taking me up to my gorgeous room. His wife Victoria was very sweet and made packed me a spectacular homemade breakfast for my day of snowboarding to make sure I did not miss a moment on the mountain. Would highly recommend this place to anyone!

Nice bed and breakfast house, the rooms are clean, large and comfortable. What stands out to me is Victoria's incredible cooking. I am a complete foodie, and her breakfasts was excellent! The house is from the 1700's so expect the charm and all that goes along with being in an old home. She told me little bit of the house and was interesting. went to ski with friends and stayed for one night. Overall, I recommended.

Wonderful old house with a lot of character. The room had lovely views of trees and a pond. The bed was comfortable, the bathroom small but serviceable, and although the room was a bit cold, we just put that down to it being late November with winter weather conditions overnight and that part of the building being over a couple of centuries old. Breakfast was amazing, with a hot wood stove warming us while we enjoyed views of the snow-covered patio. Brian and Victoria were superb hosts. We would definitely stay there again if our travels take us through that area.

Ok stay
The property is historically old and seems to be very energy inefficient. We had a blanket literally tacked to a window to stop the cold from coming in. There were several portably electric heaters on the property. They were on in the dining and shared TV area. We had 2 plugs that didn’t work in our room. Our stay was fine but the property needs some attention.

I am sorry that you had a less than exemplary experience. I sincerely wish you would've mentioned any of these issues during your stay and given us a chance to remedy them. The portable units in our rooms are A/C units. I suspect it was the window with the vent in for your A/C unit that was drafty. We could've corrected this had you mentioned it instead of tacking your blanket to our wall. Many of the outlets in our rooms are tied to wall switches to facilitate lighting with lamps. I also suspect this is why you found a couple that did not work for you as all have been verified to be in perfect order. Again, I'm sorry you did not enjoy your stay as this is certainly not what we strive for. We work very hard to make sure our facility is comfortable and up to date with current amenities not to mention outstanding food and great service.

A beautiful early American Bed and Breakfast
We wanted to find a traditional bed and breakfast and this was definitely it. This is 253 year old historic bed and breakfast with a long history in a beautiful setting. The owners are very welcoming and enjoy conversing with the guests. The rooms are decorated differently, quaint, and full of that early American feel. The food is spectacular! Highly recommend.

Hilton or B&B
I was traveling for business and decided to stay in a B&B - great decision. Very nice, clean, and well managed. My room was a very basic queen bed with beautiful original hardwood floors. I would recommend taking breakfast out on the deck overlooking the pond. French toast, eggs, bacon, orange juice, and tea - perfect! After staying in Hilton brand hotels on a regular basis, this may change my whole way of thinking.

Wonderfull experience with a fantastic breakfast!
The owners of the Colonial Williams Inn were very nice. The main portion of the house was built in the late 1700's, so you should anticipate narrow hallways and a small room. The room was very clean and comfortable; and nicely furnished in keeping with the time period of the house. The breakfast was absolutely fantastic!!! It was a wonderful experience and we will definitely stay there again.
