The Reluctant Panther Inn and Restaurant

This was our third stay at the Inn over the past 8 years, or so. While we do still enjoy it, the place is looking a bit tired. (See photo of dirty arm chair.) Room cleaning, or daily housekeeping, is non existent due to staff shortages. Old buildings don’t have central air conditioning, but our window A/C unit really couldn’t cool our room on a September day! Really not quite a B&B anymore bc not enough morning staff to handle table service. (This is really a shame, bc we remember how great it was 4 years ago). What you’ll get is a nice breakfast basket, that you ordered the night before. You can still enjoy your basket in the dining room, but there is no service to go with it. Sad, but this may be a sign of the times. Dinner at the Inn is still quite good, and there are several excellent restaurants within walking distance to complement your visit to Manchester.

We have stayed and dined in the area for decades and had dinner here last year prompting us to return for a short visit and dinner. The Inn is excellent, room was clean, comfortable, quiet and very well appointed. The staff very friendly and accommodating. Dinner was excellent and creative. Breakfast baskets were appreciated but could use a few more choices. We will return.

This inn is picturesque and lovely. Each one is set up like a private little apartment. The furnishings we very nice, and staff were very accommodating. The town is wonderful with many outlets restaurants. We would definitely stay here again. We didn’t want to leave!

It's a great B&B. Great helpful staff, super comfortable bed and a great bathroom. Stayed in Snow Flake room. 3 very minor quibbles - first, they need to have more outlets on BOTH sides of the bed, and the radio's should have connections for newer phone chargers. Next the TV should be a smart TV. Last but not least, I wish there was an option for traditional breakfast served by waiters in the dining room. Picnic basket worked out fine, but that's my preference. Again - minor quibbles - had a GREAT stay! :)

Such a clean and quiet inn! We stayed for just one night as we were driving through Vermont. Wish we could have stayed longer! Staff was so helpful without being in your space at all. Perfect location to launch from to travel or just shop in the area.
