I liked the family atmosphere, the proximity to many different ski resorts, the close access to other attractions such as the Vermont Country Store, other outlet shopping if you like outlets, horse drawn carriage rides, great bar entertainment in hotel itself, and superior chili. We were especially fond of the little hostess, Hhanna, who greated us and managed to win our hearts while we stayed. We were there over Christmas week with our 3 kids, 2 boys and a girl. We stayed in the lovely 3 br suite with 2 fireplaces deck and small kitchen. Had Fun. My kids are 17, 14, and 10. Will warn you that Magic is a tough mt for beginners, but Bromley is just minutes away.

Note: the hotel will change its name to "The Lodge Vermont" at some point in the near future.

The new Management, Lori and Wally Kenny seem to be just what the doctor ordered for this Hotel. I've stayed here with both old and new management and you can just feel the difference. Attentive for certain. I had planned to come two weeks prior to do some volunteer work at Magic Mountain, but a head cold made it impossible. Lori answered the phone always and was very accommodating and understanding of my predicament. The room was changed, and I arrived last Friday. A number of people were already there, even during this post-foliage "stick season" time.

While they have only owned the hotel for four weeks, the permits for the restaurant are pending and should be in place shortly (call ahead). The links to online travel sites are broken (the transition was not seamless it appears), so it's best to call for rates.

When I arrived I was greeted by name and welcomed. I unpacked and chatted with several folks at the bar, but crashed early.

The room was comfortable, extremely quiet, hot shower, TV. I asked for a very basic room, since all I needed to do is sleep and was out early the next day.

The only challenge is the black-diamond staircase to the rooms on the 2nd floor. It is a very steep staircase. I don't know if they have handicapped access.

I'll be back for ski season as Magic rises up stronger than ever with repaired snowmaking and glades that we cleaned up on volunteer day for intermediate and advance skill levels. Things are changing and investments are happening.

We booked a last minute trip for President's Weekend. We chose Magic Mountain because I used to ski her as a child in late 70s and I wanted to go somewhere less commercialized. We chose the Inn because of its proximity to the mountain. You could walk to the slopes.
We stayed at the last room on the end of the first floor facing the parking lot. This was great since you can access the room from either the inside hallway or the parking lot which made carring in our things very easy and a short trip from the car which was parked right outside the door.
The room was spacious enough for the 3 of us ( Myself, husband and 5 year old daughter). It was very clean and had two beds, a desk, bathroom with shower/tub, toilet and sink as well as another sink in the main room.
I can see why others may find some of the staff reserved but we no sooner noticed that we were missing the remote for the tv than the manager brought us a new one and said the previous guests had taken the one that belonged in that room. We did not even have time to notify them we were missing the remote before we had a replacement.
We were not planning to eat dinner at the Inn but I am so glad that we did. We ate in the bar area and had and excellent dinner. My daugher ordered macaroni and cheese of fthe childrens' menu and it was not the boxed kind but rather the home made kind with several kinds of real cheese which was gooey and awesome. We also had a steak dinner and another pasta dish that was spectacular. Excellent comfort foods.
We also enjoyed the two musicians playing in the fireplace area. They were quite good and in fact had just finished a set up at the bar in the ski lodge for apres ski and then come down to play at the Inn until later. There was a fire in the stone fireplace.
Continental breakfast the next monring was included and more than sufficient- yogurt, juice, milk, bananas, cereal, muffins, bagels, oatmeal. Lots to choose from.
I would definately stay here again. Magic Mountain is not for you if you want slick but if you love " old school" this is the place for you. You can leave your bag in the ski lodge and not worry about it not being there when you return. The tubing was also great.

Where do I begin? Terrible customer service from the get go. No one at the front desk to check in. I finally found a cleaning lady to ask a question. Had five quests to our room, four towels supplied and had to ask for more. When I needed ice, the man at the desk had to get it from the resturant's ice supply in the kitchen. Barely any hot water, had to run the water for a long time to get it. Made dinner reservations at the Loose Moose for 7:30, seated at 8:00, not served our dinners until 9:00. Had difficulty with room key, needed assistance with desk . Of course no one was there, had to wait a while to find someone. After 10:00 pm it was the loudest hotel I ever stayed in. Children running up and down the hallways, paper thins walls where you could hear next rooms conversations, and loud music all night. To top it all off there was some sort of domestic situation in the room above ours with loud footsteps,wrestling bodies, the "f" word continuously at 2 am in the morning. There was no one at the desk to complain to. Check out time was a joke, no one around just a sign to leave your keys on the desk. Never again!!! Yes, and I got all of this for $183.00 one night. What a joke!!
