Kimpton Taconic Hotel

The Kimpton Taconic Hotel anchors the historic Main Street corridor of Manchester, Vermont, in a gracefully expanded 1850s estate house now encompassing 90 guest rooms. Part of the IHG-owned Kimpton Hotels & Restaurants collection, the property brings urban boutique sensibility to Vermont's Green Mountains while maintaining a strong regional character: reclaimed wood accents, Battenkill River design motifs, and artwork by Vermont artists give the interiors a sense of place uncommon in national boutique brands. Classic king rooms to deluxe rooms and full suites are available, with mountain-view balconies and fireplaces in upper-category accommodations. The heated outdoor pool operates from late spring through early fall, and the full-service spa offers massage, facials, and couple's treatments. Copper Grouse restaurant serves regionally sourced Vermont food with a particular emphasis on hunting, fishing, and foraging themes; the bar carries an extensive Vermont craft beer and spirits selection. Outdoor recreation surrounds the property: Equinox Pond and the Equinox Preservation Trust trail network are within walking distance, while the Manchester Designer Outlets draw shopping-focused guests year-round. Hildene, the Lincoln Family Home, is 3 miles south. Bromley Mountain ski area is 12 miles north and Stratton Mountain resort 23 miles south, positioning the hotel as a practical base for both. Kimpton's brand-wide complimentary evening social hour—typically wine and hosted drinks from 5–6 p.m. daily—adds a social dimension to the lobby experience. The pet policy under Kimpton's brand covers all breeds and sizes at no additional fee.
