The Youngest Child’s Favorite Hotel in Vermont

I overheard my sons talking about which hotel they preferred over the course of our New England travel time, and this hotel seems to be the one that won. The debate went on between the complimentary breakfast options, to the pool, to the comfortable rooms, and so on until finally, the youngest child reached his decision.

White River Inn & Suites won his vote, mostly due to the indoor hotel and amazing complimentary breakfast options. 

White River Inn & Suites

The Spacious Rooms

We recently spent the night in a regular room instead of a suite at White River Inn & Suites. This was a great experience as it allowed us to get a feel for what their other room options are like. 

We opted for two beds, as you can see above. The regular rooms have a mini-refrigerator, television, microwave, and access to the outdoors through a patio door (or private balcony if you’re not on a ground-level floor). There’s also a small table, private bathroom, and sink area. A small table to sit at for meals, and enough room to walk around without stepping on each other. 

Mountain Views

If you get a room on the backside of the White River Inn & Suites, then you’ll be able to see mountain views. This photo above was taken during one of our stays here. The boys were looking out over the field to watch a baby deer that we happened to spot one morning.

Eat Regular Food

While you may not consider mac-n-cheese a regular food option, the youngest child does! During our time at the White River Inn & Suites, he loved whipping up some mac-n-cheese. This is a dish you can make in the full kitchen while staying in a suite or the smaller rooms via the microwave.

Indoor Pool

White River Inn & Suites has an indoor pool that allows us to get some daily exercise plus spend quality time together. Our sons learned to swim and do a backflip while staying at the White River Inn & Suites due to having access to their indoor swimming pool. 

The indoor pool at White River Inn & Suites allows us to enjoy some quality family time together as we see who can swim the fastest across the pool.

Complimentary Breakfast

I was bummed years back when Dunkin Donuts stopped making onion bagels. I loving nothing more than a good toasted onion bagel with cream cheese for breakfast, but alas, I’ve had to go without. That is until we stayed at White River Inn & Suites! They have bagels, bread, English muffins, blueberry muffins, banana nut muffins, waffles, juice, coffee, and so much more available to enjoy as part of their complimentary breakfast. {Some things only available during the weekends}

White River Inn & Suites complimentary breakfast also runs later on weekends, so you get to sleep in a little bit. 

Gill Area with Seating

Just outside the indoor pool area, White River Inn & Suites has a few places to sit outdoors with a grill for use by the guests. I’ve seen one man, in particular, cook a steak out there on the grill and bring it into his room. I know that sounds delicious to me and is a huge bonus to anyone looking to stay in the New England area while checking out New England travel destinations. 

Sights to See

Speaking of New England travel destinations, there’s plenty to see and experience in the White River Junction, Vermont area. The train station is just down the road from the White River Inn & Suites. We were able to catch an Amtrak train picking up and dropping off passengers. We also saw this older train that you can walk over to and check out. You can also drive a little bit down the road towards Cornish, NH to dip your feet in the Connecticut River. 

Overall the White River Inn & Suites provides our family with everything we need in one spot. Not far from this hotel you’ll find a gas station, a Dunkin Donuts, McDonald’s, and a Chinese Buffett. I’m pretty sure these are all part of the reasons why this hotel in Vermont got all of our youngest child’s votes for the best hotel in the New England travel area.
