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 lobby and room were comfortable/cozy, the on duty manager was friendly, attentive and informative. Nice quiet room. FYI: The property sits about two miles outside of Manchester, VT, and in July most businesses shut down around 6pm.

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.

Breakfast is made to order from a few daily options. I’ve never seen a hotel offer that before! Family run hotel. Quirky, clean, comfortable, and simple.

Warm Welcome
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.

Booked place last minute after a mix up on another reservation. It is an older property and nothing fancy, but was clean and quiet, which is all I really care about. Would definitely stay again.

What a find! This lodge was like stepping back in time but everything was in perfect condition. You can see the pride of ownership and feel the hospitality. Had a great time socializing with other guests around the fireplace on a cold winter night and everyone shared our good impressions of Olympia Lodge. I would highly recommend.
