This is a nice quiet affordable hotel. Very nice grounds, and less than a minute from Bennington. But that minute makes a big difference for the quiet you need to sleep at night. It is not the fanciest hotel, but it is clean and homey. I usually stay in the higher priced rooms at the front of the buildings. I... More

Love the million dollar view from our cabin, and the service we receive here is just as valuable. We stay here two to three times a year and have been coming here for over four years, a fantastic value.

Customer Service -- deserving of the highest score -- sincere, and caring. Safe -- I travelled to Vt. by myself over the course of four years to work on an old house ('07-'11) I felt extremely safe and comfortable and looked forward to my stays. Clean -- Very clean. Staff very accommodating to your needs. Peaceful - The setting is... More

When I arrived back at the hotel he was removing the... More

Had to write to express my experience at the Harwood Hill. I stay here at least once a month while visiting relatives in the area. If you are looking for a motel with designer rooms and piles of pillows, look elsewhere. If you are looking for a safe, clean place to stay without breaking the bank, this is it. All... More

My husband and I stayed at the Harwood Motel for one night during a 3 week tour of New England as we were driving south through Vermont. We had a typical motel style room where the car was parked outside which for us for one night was perfect. To see the view it was necessary to walk round the corner... More

I was surprised by recent negative reviews. I again stayed at Harwood Hill on two separate occasions in early October, 2011 and found it, as always a pleasant experience. Every unit I've stayed in has been immaculate, rugs, bath, bed, everything very clean. Am old enough to remember 50's motels and HH is definitely not in that category. The furnishing... More

I have to echo the prior review. I've stayed here more than once, but won't stay again. I also initially came because of good reviews here, but think it is time for some correction in those reviews. It is just okay, certainly not deserving of #1 in the area. The prices fluctuate due to season, fair enough. It is outdated,... More

The Harwood Hill Motel is a BUDGET motel. We paid $85/night (incl. tax) during the Oct. fall-colors high season. The room is large with a queen size bed, but very basic and bare in the style of ‘50s and ‘60s motels. The carpet and upholstered chairs are dark in color and do not look clean. The bathroom is small with... More

Also, please take a look at the photo section of our website. The photos of the rooms along with most... More

We stayed here for two nights while touring throughout Vermont. This is a nice hotel, good value for the money. We like the small hotels where you can drive right up to the door and unload your belongings! Check in was easy and the owner very pleasant. The room was clean, with all necessary amenities and a nice size. We... More
