• Meghann (9/5): - Great value for the space. Loved that our small dog was allowed.
• Jenna (10/5): Beautiful, Relaxing, Local Hotel - Everything about The Shire is wonderful. It’s walking distance to the main shops and restaurants in town. It has ice and water in all of the buildings and even a little 24/7 vending machine market. The staff is so kind and even called us to offer us upgraded rooms for free due to their renovation. The rooms are gorgeous and the river is gorgeous. The fire pits outside are a wonderful touch.
• Marta (8/5): - Location No security cameras
• Madelyn (7/5): - Clean and comfortable
• Yoav (7/5): Good enough for a 2 day ski trip with the family - Nice view, nice room. Not too expensive while close to Killington ski resort Bathroom was sub par, small tv.
• Yury Maximov (10/5): Рекомендую! - Большая парковка, что очень важно для автопутешествия! Огромный номер с огромной кроватью и очень красивым видом на реку. Тепло при минус 20. В номере было тепло при минус 20 градусах на улице, а также очень тихо! В общей зоне можно сделать бесплатный кофе
• Alexander (9/5): -
• Jennifer (9/5): The Shire anniversary trip - Loved the location and the room itself was beautiful! There was a drink station on each floor, well-stocked 24/7. I had one suggestion for improvement and already mentioned it to the establishment. Also, the parking was very limited for the annex building we were in.
• Maria Betania (5/5): -
• Lindsey (10/5): Picture perfect place to stay! - We enjoyed our stay in the family room! It was perfect for our family of 5!
• Petroslava (8/5): -
• Karen (8/5): -
• Jennifer (9/5): Gorgeous property with river views. Plan to be self sufficient for the most. - Walking distance to town, huge River House room, gorgeous views, access to fire pits, grocery store across street, extra space heaters great. It is a quiet and beautiful property, we loved it. Minor things: In room primary heater sounds very unhealthy and loud, firewood for fire pits left uncovered in snow so of course it was wet and difficult to light. I grew up in Vermont so was not deterred by the cold. There is no Lyft or Uber so plan accordingly. Had a glass of wine and did not want to drive- the hotel staff gentleman gave me the number for a cab 30 minutes away in North Lebanon, NH. We had to cancel dinner reservations as the quote was close to $100 and too far away.
• Elizabeth (6/5): i love competing with other guests for hot water. - the location in woodstok was ideal to stroll into town. the room was warm - as in temperature. the bed was faily comfortable. the room was big. every single shower we took was was cold. when trying to correspond via the number provided i never got responses. i asked for the hot water situation to be rectified and was completely ignored. i never saw a staff member. the "coffee bar" is a keurig with some pods and coffee mate. i restocked the coffee mate one morning because there wasn't anymore out. the decor in the room was sparse and worn but not shabby. would have been nice to have a coffee station IN the room vs by the cold front door. just a few changes could improve this place. i never went into the main building to see whatever their snack pantry thing was but when i looked it up, it seemed like a glorified vending machine. all in all, i won't be back.
• Mark (10/5): - Great staff and a great place to stay!
• Joy (9/5): -
• TIMOTHY (10/5): - Everyone on the staff was amazingly helpful and friendly!! Parking was very difficult

• Briana (9/5): -
• Kristen (10/5): -
• Paul (10/5): Everything was great: the room, the view, the location, everyone, including Gabby. She is awesome! Thank you very much, - The beautiful view that we had that included the river and the hills behind us with the farm. Not a thing. Everything is good!
• Jennifer (10/5): -
• darlene (7/5): - Beds were comfortable. Extremely hot in upstairs hallway. Doors are flimsy, didn't feel way safe. A/c was off. Had to turn the number to 67 to keep it half way cool. Also if you name your establishment the shire it should have some significance and/or decor to lord of the rings. Just saying
• Martine (10/5): -
• jacqueline (4/5): - The location I was double charged for staying at the hotel for 1 night and I’m still waiting for this to be resolved, 1 week after our stay.
• John (7/5): Overall it was good and convenient - Location Housekeeping never came through and tidied up or changed towels until I asked on day three. Coffee for room was never stocked or restocked. Trash was emptied until I asked. You can do better, you have such an awesome place. Also, need to reseal windows and doors, cold air leaks big time.

• Monica (9/5): - The location is great within walking distance to town.
• Nancy (9/5): - All
• Linda (10/5): Comfort as always. -
• Patricia (9/5): Great stay. - Lovely place, well maintained and nice views. Walkable distance to nice spots in town. Nothing.
• Robyn (7/5): -
• Lucy (10/5): -
• Ieva (8/5): Cosy Comfort in a Walkable Location - A great walkable location, making it easy to explore the area on foot. The rooms were small but very cosy, well-designed, and comfortable.
• Michela (7/5): -
• Kumar (8/5): -
• Patricia (10/5): Loved it!! - The place is lovely! Would definitely come back. Nothing really, overall a very pleasant experience.
• Ashish (8/5): -
• Jennifer (7/5): Woodstock stay, dog friendly - Room was clean, bed comfortable, and dog friendly. Easy walk to town, beautiful setting along the river. Bathroom was worn. The rates were very high for the room quality. We were not able to enjoy the firepits as they weren't on/ no instructions. Got voice-mail response when we called about firepit instructions.
• Alaninphoenix (6/5): Functional Motel in Woodstock - An average experience at this Motel with a great "backyard." The room was clean but "motelish" with no real decorations. Check-in was good with a helpful attendent. Coffee is available in a room next to check-in. Nothing bad but not special. Functional.
• Suzee (8/5): - Location,parking, room size. Nice sitting area. Coffee station excellent. No closet, small shower.
• Rejane (1/5): -
• Kelly (9/5): -
• carolsN517YE (10/5): Sweet, comfortable motel near historic area of Woodstock - We only stayed for 1 night but it was a good experience. Nice staff, good room, bed was very comfortable. The room had a frig but no microwave. However, there was a microwave in a community coffee and snack space. This is really a motel as entrances were from the outside in. Still, it was quiet and very close to the historic district, an easy walk. A small grocery store was across the street. We would be very comfortable staying there again.
• Pete (5/5): Overpriced for what is offered. - Walking distance to all the interesting places in Woodstock. Very good location. The room was ridiculously overpriced with 600$ incl. all taxes for each of the two nights. Let me be clear: I was aware of this and it was one of the only remaining option in Woodstock for the short term plan. The room, although 'nice', was never worth this amount. There was not even room cleaning and I had to ask for towels. Even the free bikes were all with almost flat tires or saddles that kept dropping low. The location and appearance of the Shire are nice, but did not balance the experience for me. I won't ever go back for that price, perhaps not even for less.
• Evelyn (8/5): I enjoyed the stay, loved the location and spacious room, but too pricey for what you get. - Loved the feel of the outside, it was quintessential Vermont. The room was spacious. The inside needs a bit of updating, while keeping the character.
• Sue (7/5): -
• Graeme (4/5): Poor - There was no breakfast and we were informed there was another related hotel two and a half miles away if we wanted and would have to pay. There was no Parking there. Breakfast facilities on site not available and nothing on website to indicate stairs. I had a broken ankle.
• Erica (8/5): Perfect - Can walk very where Nothing
• Plummer (6/5): Location is excellent. The hotel is tired and desperately needs an update. - Needs to be updated.
• Donald (9/5): -
• Mike Howard6993 (10/5): -
• Jay (9/5): -
• Andrew (4/5): - Poor value for the price. Minimally staffed with limited check in time and no breakfast. Shower difficult to figure out, and half the outlets didn’t work to charge phones. Level of service was that of a motel.
• Jonathan (8/5): Good hotel. Good location. Research and book restaurants early as not many in Woodstock - Great location - 5 minutes walk into Woodstock and overlooking the river. Generous suite size No food options - even breakfast
• Suzette (8/5): - We loved the river out back, and places to sit. We loved having a swing on our porch. The staff was excellent. I wasn’t keen on the very tiny shower stall, I kept hitting my elbows, and the jets on the tub looked dirty, so we didn’t use it. There was no breakfast offered and hard to find in town.
• Patricia (5/5): Not worth it! Stay at the Woodstock Inn! - The location is great! The room was big and the staff was friendly and attempted to be helpful while on duty but be warned this property is not managed 24 hrs so for $600 a night there is no one after 9pm. The room was basically cleaned but not to the level of a $600 a night room. The furniture is old and worn. The parking is insufficient and that's not acceptable. Unmanned property over night, no security and no amenities! For $600 a night this place is not worth it. Sooo disappointed!
• Tony (10/5): - Loved the rockers on the porch
• Chris (2/5): - We recently stayed at the Shire and out of the hotels I’ve ever stayed at this hands down was the worse !! So the view facing the river is great and only positive thing. The room we had was a king bed river view room 119 and inside looked nothing like the pictures . Mold outside and inside the room , worn out furniture, carpet is wore out , has a portable space heater for heat , door is hard to lock , when you walk in the floor is uneven but hard to see why there’s a worn out rug covering the worn out carpet , the fire pits outback now have cheap sterno inserts instead of actual wood logs like pictured , when someone is in the room above you all you here is footsteps when someone walks above you spent one night listening for hours someone’s dogs barking that was left in there room , as soon as you walk in the room you can smell strong musty smell , the lobby is about 8 ft x 10 Ft no formal lobby. If we had know any of these we would have spent the extra to stay at Woodstock resort or drive back to Stowe . Not sure how it’s considered a 3 star hotel
• Suzanne (5/5): Spartanisch! - Tolle Lage, sehr entspannend! Ganz Woodstock in Laufweite, und Schöne Restaurants in der Nähe. Spärlichst eingerichtet: kein Tisch, nur 1 Nachttischlampe, kaum Platz, kein richtiges Badezimmer. Noch nicht einmal eine kleine Wasserflasche als "courtesy". Entsetzend für diese Preisklasse !!
• 张 (10/5): -
• Weil (8/5): Staff helpful and efficient. Pleasant location and room very good size. - Location Spa bath in the bedroom
• Dena (10/5): - Had road view but was ok for the amount of time spent there. Located in perfect spot for easy walking to grocery store and downtown shopping. Hotel offers complimentary Coffee Bar, waters, cookies and even bicycles to ride
• Bryce (10/5): - Great location. Minutes walk to the centre of Woodstock. Nice setting on the side of the river with chairs and lighting to enjoy the view. Bed was comfy. We had a room to the left of the main property which looked like a little house. Big bath in the bedroom was nice with separate shower and toilet. Shower could do with updating but was working fine.
• Danuta (10/5): Perfect location - Great self free parking Amazing view of the river Cute grounds by the river
• Dina (8/5): - We arrived later in the evening so we did not actually interact with staff in person, however, the communication with staff through text worked great. We stayed in the River House and the room was very nice, clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the adirondack chairs outside of our room overlooking the river. The location was a short walk into the downtown shopping area. Virtual check-in and check-out was easy. We would definitely stay here again. The only recommendation I would offer is to provide an option of decaf coffee and creamers at the coffee bar in the building for the late comers who might enjoy an evening coffee.
• Tjaša (10/5): -
• Kelly (6/5): - New facility with very cozy beds. Walking distance to downtown Woodstock. For the room price, would have been nice to offer a continental breakfast. Parking is some what limited, so don’t arrive too late. Housekeeping woke us up at 830am to ask if we were checking out. May want to invest in Do Not Disturb signs for rooms.
• Linda Graves (4/5): 5 star location and prices with a 2 star room. - The location was great and the view was wonderful. Enjoyed having a coffee maker and small fridge in our room. We enjoyed the chocolate chip cookies left for us in our room when we arrived. The room needed a deep clean. My feet were black after walking barefoot on the carpet. The carpet really needed replacing. The light fixtures were dusty and there were dead bugs along the window sill. We did not get housekeeping during our two night stay. No instructions on how to operate the heater which required more than just turning on.
• Jonson (5/5): Quality not commensurate with price. - Very comfortable bed. Room was large. Beautiful view over river and valley. Location good for access to points of interest and scenery as well as town of Woodstock. Adequate WiFi with plenty of outlets. Grounds well maintained. No housekeeping service over the two days. No assistance with luggage upstairs. Overpriced for quality delivered. Level of cleanliness and maintenance not up to par such as dirty corners on bathroom floor, bug debris in window sills, outside table on deck needed wipe down before we wanted to eat at it, saggy chair seat at desk, slight musty smell until we opened window.
• Galen (10/5): - Lovely hotel. Beautiful view from our room. Very clean.
• Ofer (10/5): Great place in a great town - The views from the room facing the river are amazing.
• Christine (6/5): Not what we expected for the price. - Part of the property looks like a travel lodge hotel. Half the rooms are on the parking lot. Decently maintained. However not what you expect for over $400/night. Slightly out of main part of town but walkable if town parking is an issue. Grocery across the street is a nice benefit. Free onsite parking was never an issue. Staff is pleasant. Definitely request a room at back of the property or in the river house. Otherwise you are overpaying.
• Steve (8/5): - Nice view but no balcony. Internet good
• Wendy (7/5): Convenient location, spacious room, friendly staff, close to the road - Room was spacious and clean. Jacuzzi tub and fireplace in the room was a bonus Our room was very close to the main road, very noisy.
• irit (10/5): - הכל . חדר צוות ניקיון. הכל מעולה!! כלום.
• Nancy (10/5): -
• Helena (9/5): -
• Natalie (10/5): - Great little motel. Clean, well appointed, friendly staff and walkable location. We did not have good weather, but great fire pits and chairs near river.
• Nancy Ann (10/5): - Really beautiful
• Mary (10/5): - The Shire Woodstock is in a great location… easy walk to quaint downtown.
• Ian (10/5): Best Hotel on our Vermont Trip - Excellent all around. Loved the room, so comfortable and well furnished and, of course, the balcony looking over the river. Easy check-in and they accommodated my request fro a ground floor room. Parking right outside your room which helps a lot when you have a ton of luggage. We don't travel light!
• Devin (10/5): - Clean and convenient
• Donald (8/5): - Very noisy. Room right next to parking lot and next to stairs. No closet or draws in room.
• Korie (9/5): -
