This was a mother / daughter vacation; our first time to Vermont. We loved the Inn! MaryAnn and Jack were wonderful hosts. We looked forward to the breakfast each morning. It was delicious!

The Inn at Ormsby Hill is a quaint and well appointed quintessentially Vermont inn. The hospitality is everything you want when you stay at an inn, and nothing you don't. Warm, but not overbearing.

We were greeted by the host upon arrival. Our room was ready. The host explained everything we needed to know for our stay. We could use a code to go in and out easily. Plenty of parking. Very close to the Equinox and Manchester center. Plenty of sitting areas that were cozy and comfortable with gas fire places.

The Inn at Ormsby Hill Is a very special place. Our room was comfortable, and we enjoyed having a fireplace. The back patio provides wonderful views, Including of the extraordinary plants in the yard. The breakfast were excellent. Overall, I could not recommend this bed-and-breakfast more highly.

My wife and I had an excellent stay here. Highlights are definitely the breakfast (possibly the best we've had at any place of stay) and the really nice grounds. The nearby towns are really quaint and cute, and it's just an hour to Albany airport, which was what we needed. Would definitely stay again!
