The Olympia Lodge

What guests think

Travellers describe The Olympia Lodge as a friendly, homey, family-run stay with clean, comfortable rooms, a cozy lounge with fireplace, ample parking, and a made-to-order breakfast, though decor is dated and amenities are fairly simple.

Hosts earn strong praise for being warm, attentive, and accommodating, with some noting flexible check-in and helpful local tips. The location is convenient for Manchester and nearby skiing, although one review mentions the busy road. Negatives include limited breakfast options or hours for some, the closed bar, and occasional room issues like noisy AC, limited outlets, or a faulty lock. Expect a welcoming, old-school lodge with great hospitality and a tasty breakfast.

Owner very personable, swimming pool was nice however room and facilities were basic, furnishings drab and decor had seen better days. Air conditioning noisy. Very little choice for breakfasts, no bar provision. This could be a lovely hotel but it definitely needs a makeover, we were very disappointed with what we got for the price.

Tires property with wood rot and peeling paint to set the tone on the exterior located on a busy road. Lobby was straight from the 1970's with Fall chochkies covering every surface and old dated decor. Rooms had a "fishing lodge" feel. Breakfast was disappointing with limited choices. I would not choose to stay here . . . Bad value for cost of stay.

This is a case of "don't judge a book by its cover." It's a very old family-run motel that shows its age, but the owners take obvious pride in making sure everything is immaculate and comfortable. They make improvements where it matters most--our bathroom had been upgraded with brand new fixtures, and it was sparkling clean. A hot, home-cooked breakfast is served every day in the breakfast room, giving the place a B&B feel. The owners are extremely friendly and make their guests feel at home. We stayed three very comfortable nights and agreed we'd go back if in that part of VT again. In an area of high-priced inns and hotels, the Olympia Lodge is a welcome, affordable alternative with warm, personal service.

The bed was the most comfortable in our 10 days of travel. The hosts were very gracious and the lodge was well kept. What I didn't like was no coffee maker in room. We are early risers and like to get on the road to avoid morning rush. Breakfast was from 8-9:30 am so we were gone looking for a coffee shop well before breakfast.

It was warm and welcoming lodge in a stunning location, close to Mt. equinox scenic drive. Breakfast was not the standard hotel buffet and more personalized. It was filling and delicious. Room was clean. It could do with an upgrade but we had a comfortable night so cant complain. Highlight of this lodge were the staff/owners. Genuine and warm hearted folks who made the stay so much more fulfilling and enjoyable. Will choose to stay here again.

If you are looking for up-to-the-minute decor, this is not the place for you. But our hosts' warm welcome and happy atmosphere worked for us. The dinner restaurant recommendation was great (Ye Olde Tavern), our host-prepared-breakfast (eggs to order) was excellent. The beds seemed a little soft but were totally comfortable, the inn was quiet and we slept like rocks. I imagine it would be a great place to chill out in the lounge after a long day skiing or hiking (or shopping). I wish we could have stayed longer to enjoy Angus, the new Golden Retriever puppy.
