Swift House Inn

This is our second time staying at the Swift House and it is always a wonderful experience. The rooms are lovely, the beds comfortable, and the bathrooms nice. The breakfast is delicious, and Jessica’s is so good. The bar is also great - it has an old school vibe. We came with our 10 month old baby and they were very accommodating, setting up a pack and play in our room and a high chair for breakfast. One of the owners, Matthew, was very friendly told us about all of the art throughout the inn. I highly recommend the Swift House. We will definitely be back!

The Swift House Inn is a beautiful, well appointed, exceptionally maintained B&B in the heart of Middlebury. The staff is wonderful. Our only issue was that we were staying in the Alexander Twilight room, which faces the highway. We heard traffic from semi’s and snow plows all night. There was a respite from about 2am to 5am but otherwise it was loud. The room is maybe 20-50 yards from the highway. I tried putting in my AirPods but they aren’t great for sleeping. My husband and I are not light sleepers at all, but we were both miserable. So after two terrible nights sleep I can say I highly recommend this inn, just not that room unless you can sleep through anything!

This was our first stay at the Swift Inn and it was so incredible. We were on a working holiday and picking up the kiddo from a language immersion program at Middlebury and after a disastrous stay at the Middlebury Inn a couple years ago, needed a new option. We stayed in the Mansfield Room in the carriage house, which I highly recommend - nice and big - huge bathroom with a great jet tub and plenty of space for us to spread out for 3 nights. We had our own patio and I was able to work there one day for a bit but it was too warm. I do wish their were more common areas to hang in - the central space was in the main house but it also doubled as a restaurant and bar - the porch here was very comfy and there are chairs around the well maintained property! The hammock was a key location for me

The Swift House offered our family respite and kindness in recent years as we navigated the challenges of having my mother-in-law in memory care at nearby Otter Creek. We stayed in pairs, singles, and groups as needs arose including a large family celebration in Dec. 2023. The staff is wonderfully kind and accommodating. The food is excellent. The rooms are immaculate and gardens spectacular. It is a classic inn with modern touches. There is not a fitness center on the grounds which was the only shortcoming for some family members. We will likely not return because of the passing of our matriarch but we will remember it fondly and highly recommend to others fortunate to visit.

We have now stayed at the Swift House Inn twice. Once in a smaller room in the main Lodge and once in a bit of a larger room where the restaurant is. We've enjoyed our stay both times. When we visit Middlebury in the future we will definitely look to stay there. Keep in mind the breakfast they offer for staying there is absolutely phenomenal. Don't make you as much food as you want and whatever you want. The staff bent over backwards to make us feel comfortable. We had an amazing server named Bager who took care of us each day. Wow you made us feel at home even while away.
