Manchester Vermont Luxury Inn Reluctant Panther

Small Luxury Hotel in Downtown Manchester, Vermont

Lanier Best B&B For AnniversariesThe Reluctant Panther Inn & Restaurant was recently chosen as offering the "Best B&B For Anniversaries" out of 8,500 B&B's around the world! We're proud to accept this prestigous award, and we look forward to showing you just why we're consistently ranked among the best in the world in ALL romantic categories!

The romantic Reluctant Panther Inn & Restaurant is southern Vermont's newest small luxury hotel. With the completion of a major renovation, the inn and restaurant have been transformed into a chic boutique hotel offering elegant accommodations and fine dining in a sophisticated setting. Set in historic Manchester Village with views of Mount Equinox, the inn is next to great shopping and diverse four-season activities—and convenient from New York City (4½ hours) and Boston (3½ hours.)

All suites are newly refurbished with in-room fireplace (some with two, a Manchester exclusive!), hydrotherapy spa tubs (some for two), luxurious linens and internet access. Some offer exceptional views of Mount Equinox or a private entrance. On-site fine dining offers a sleek, sophisticated dining experience featuring regional cuisine and a superb wine list.

Walk to RockResort spa, golf, shopping and four-season activities, including hiking, biking and tennis. Drive one mile to Manchester designer outlets, the Southern Vermont Arts Center, galleries, live theatre and restaurants, or travel twenty minutes to skiing at Bromley or Stratton Mountain. Seasonal and romantic packages available.

The Reluctant Panther provides an elegant site for small conferences, weddings and civil unions and we're happy to assist you in any way we can. We would be pleased to introduce you to a number of event professionals in our area including the Village Florist, our preferred florist and designer.
