    Rooms were extremely small.... Barely room to walk and need to put our bags in the car.

    So many different shared spaces and common areas to hang out with family and friends. We were with a big group of families and they was plenty of places to meet up and hang out.

    Everything you need for a ski vacation in Mount Snow
    • Leisure trip
    • Family with young children
    • Standard Two Double

    The rooms are very small, basically two beds and some room to walk about. We were four and it was generally fine but one thing that would help if there would be more hangers on the wall for things like ski jackets, pants, mid layers etc. There were none, and we used the towel hangers for this purpose and hung things on the TV so that things wouldn't just be lying in a pile on the floor. But this is a very small minus in an overall great stay.

    The location was super convenient for our Easter ski vacation in Mount Snow. Just a short drive from the main lodge and the slopes (free parking this time of season). The breakfast had anything one would want. The common areas were fantastic and our kids enjoyed running around and playing different games. We used the boot room as well. Also, the staff was very kind and accommodating during our stay. In general, great stay and great value for money.

    Rooms are very small. Hot tub was very nice but could’ve been cleaned better. An additional staff member for breakfast setup and service would be an improvement.

    Cozy, homey feel and very close to Mt. Snow. The rooms are set up well to maximize the space. Continental breakfast was good. Nice amount of options and the dining room is spacious, welcoming, and picturesque. Hot tub and saunas are a bonus for sure! And towels were provided!

    There really wasn’t much room for bags without tripping over them. I knew the room was small but I didn’t realize how small. If you’re going with someone else you better really like each other :)

    Location to Mount Snow is fantastic. You’re at the mountain in 3 minutes. Staff is friendly.

    • Queen Room
    • Stayed 1 night

    They remodeled and doubled the price from how it was 5 years ago. They removed the bunk beds and put in queen beds, not as good for serving the purpose of being a close location to get ski days with multiple family/friends together. Hot tub and sauna weren't working and they didn't post that on booking, I think they are going to fix them next week. Overall still a great spot. The foosball table and air hockey table are both broken it would be fantastic if they fixed them.

    Breakfast used to be great prior to the pandemic they would cook bacon and eggs to order, now it is oatmeal, toast, bagels, and cereal. Still nice to have breakfast, but no where near as good as it was 5 years ago (and back then rooms were $70 per night instead of $150). Amazing location, right by the Carinthia lodge to ski Mount Snow. Great architecture, and captures the feeling of a 60s ski chateau.

    It would have been nice to have coffee available either in the room or onsite. I understand that the cafe was closed during my stay, but even having coffee available in the lobby would be a nice touch in the morning. However, I did find a delightful coffee bar right around the corner.

    This place has a unique local vibe which I particularly enjoyed. The room was immaculate and the staff were pleasant and accommodating. The room had been tastefully and comfortably updated.

    We didn't have the choice of having air conditioning on. Understanding seasons change, but needs to have a fan or something for air movement. Floor seemed moist or damp to my feet, had to wear on sandals.

    Breakfast was wonderful, and I liked not leaving Inn to purchase breakfast.

    I had a wonderful experience at the Mountaineer Inn! What truly sets the Mountaineer Inn apart is the kindness of its staff. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warm smiles and a genuine desire to make my stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. They were always ready to offer recommendations, answer questions, and go the extra mile to ensure I had a memorable experience.

    The WiFi was weak and inconsistent, which was a little frustrating in the evenings, since most of the surrounding area closes by 9pm.

    Everything was lovely. The staff were helpful, the facilities were very nice, the setting was beautiful. Breakfast was delicious.

    good alternative...
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveler

    • Stayed 5 nights

    The place is family-owned and the owners are friendly... but busy. When they're not around (and I perfectly understand they have a lot of work to do in order to have the place running) there's a phone number to call. The catch is that if you're European your phone may not work in that rather secluded spot. WhatsApp would (there is WiFi) - but the owners are not on it. Thus, one afternoon there was pooring rain and I needed to rejoin the conference hotel (12 mins uphill) - but my umbrella was broken, owners were absent and my mobile phone didn't work. No way to call a cab (if such service exists there in off-season summer), no way to ask for an umbrella - but, well, I'm not soluble in water so I made it!

    I went there in order to attend a conference at the nearby Grand Summit Hotel (no single rooms available there) so I chose this off-site option, within walking distance. It's a nice quite place, with a small swimming pool and a very nice large garden. There were few other guests - and they respected the silence during the night (it's a wooden structure, so not really soundproof, but I slept well). Breakfast is included. WiFi worked well enough.

    no much. there were a few areas that still need to be upgraded, which I am sure they have a long game to do in the off-seasons. Everything was fine for us.

    Patrick was totally awesome! We were not expecting much for the price but ultimately we loved it. It had that classic feel but it's also in the process of modernization. Our room was just what we needed. We were mostly interested in exploring the green mountains and it was a fantastic home base.

    The location was perfect and easy to get to. The made to order breakfast was delicious and just the right amount of food. The check in and check out were easy and all done via text. The toiletries provided were wonderful.
