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.

Unimpressed compared to others. Ordered Mussels. See picture. 3 out of 4 shells were empty. So only got about10 small mussels. 2nd beer ordered never arrived after asking twice. Staff only seemed interested in getting you seated. Pad Thai was good.

The staff at the Inn was extremely inviting and their attention to detail was meticulous. A warm greeting when we arrived, friendly and charming, exacting what you would expect from a small luxury hotel in Vermont. We can't say enough about housekeeping and the level of cleanliness of our room. Soft linens and bath sheets made the stay extra enjoyable. Our hats are off to Morgan, Bonnie, Matt, Richard, and Abby. Thank you for making our stay extra special. We ate dinner in the restaurant twice and had two great meals. Pork Chop and Duck Breast for our first meal and we both had the Cod for our second, a great experience overall. Bravo to Chef Sigal! Hopefully she makes the carrot cheesecake a permanent part of the dessert menu.

If you are looking for a quiet retreat with a great restaurant this is the best in town. Very accommodating and beautiful suites at reasonable pricing. The staff is very attentive to any requests. Being in the heart of Manchester this place is centrally located to all shopping and outdoor activities.

We have visited Manchester half a dozen times from Canada and this was our first meal at The Reluctant Panther. Why did we wait so long! We shared the Brussels sprouts and I had the pork chop - amazing! Next visit we will return for a meal and stay at The Reluctant Panther. Thank you.
