Essex 3 Stars Hotels

"This is not a 5-star hotel, but it has a lot of character, and it is an excellent place to stay for basic shopping. You can pop over to Target for some new PJs, say, and then pick up a gourmet meal at the City Market grocery store as well as some world-class snacks from Trader Joe's. The rooms have a microwave, so your food options are not terrible. It isn't too far from downtown. Walkable or bike-able if you are into that, or buses going downtown pass on the road in front of the hotel. Facilities could use some upgrading for sure - I did feel a bit of a sad/creepy vibe emanating from my brown and tan, large-flowered bedspread, and someone needs to re-attach the smoke alarm in room 203, thanks. However, the facilities were completely clean, the towels were utterly fine, and the free soap smelled good. There is a decent indoor pool as well as some nice picnic tables and a little gazebo on a swatch of grass behind the inn where you can eat, drink, smoke, or just hang out and chat with other fellow travellers. Last but not least, the staff were helpful, friendly, and authentic. Three cheers for the Anchorage Inn!"

"Great experience!"

"The lobby set the tone for the rest of the stay. Felt like you were in a mountain lodge. Breakfast was great with a variety of items. Not you typical free breakfast much better. The room with the kitchen was a great plus for traveling. Would highly recommended staying here."

"Easy to everything in Burlington "

"Great stay, friendly staff, and conveniently located walking distance to Middlebury College. We recommend it 😊"

" Because of flight delays we were very late getting to the hotel. The front desk clerk was there to open the front door. She quickly got us to our room. The room was clean and comfy. We were able to get a late checkout because I’m a Bonvoy member. It was a great experience. "

"Very nice property. Centrally located to the lake & Church St!"

"Great customer service"
