Outbound Stowe

I was happy to book this place pretty last minute with Chase points and looking forward to a quick ski trip. The location is 10/10 on the mountain road and the shuttle picks you up right outside which for that reason alone I'd consider staying here again. The staff were all super kind and helpful. The main building is definitely a remodeled older building, and the rooms look nicer in photos than in person but they aren't bad. The bed was comfy and linens were clean and comfy. I have a feeling housekeeping turned our room around kind of quickly and missed some things - it looked like the last guest took out daily contacts and piled them on the nightstand instead of throwing them away and that got missed by the cleaners. The biggest complaint we had staying here was the noise which I see others have commented on as well. The walls felt paper thin as we could hear full conversations and every little noise from the room next door. Additionally, throughout the night at 3, 4, 5am we heard loud stomping and walking around above us just nonstop like someone was trying to get their 10,000 steps in at the worst hour possible. Made it tough to get a good night sleep in before getting an early start on the slopes. We only stayed two nights and didnt get good sleep either night. We didn't check out any amenities but the fire pits and bar area looked cute. The only other note I had was that we booked a classic king room and Im fairly certain the bed was only a queen, which is fine just not appropriately advertised. Overall it was not bad but don't know if I would quite consider it a luxury stay.

I recently spent a few nights here and enjoyed my stay in a cabin, which was very comfy and cozy. The shower was nice and I appreciated that shampoo, conditioner and body wash are included. Plus. the bed was comfortable. I didn't use it during my stay, but the pool looked very inviting. The location is great, close to the center of Stowe but far enough outside that I didn't get stuck in town traffic. The cabins have kitchens and are stocked with some pots/pans/utensils for cooking, but there are also plenty of options for food nearby. It's a great jumping off point for hikes and other excursions in the area. And the staff I interacted with were helpful and accommodating.

Positive: The lobby and rooms are modern and vibrant. Every piece of decor is gorgeous! The staff who checked us in were efficient and warm. The pool and all the surrounding activities were a huge hit with our kids. Negative: Our room had a dehumidifier and it was full already when we arrived. There was a faint musty smell to the room. There was no water available to purchase at the hotel when we arrived at night

Very nice hotel in a beautiful location. The wall heaters can be a bit loud but they work well. Beds are comfortable, and rooms give off a cabin type vibe even though most aren’t cabins. They do have cabins on site though. The front desk girl was incredibly nice and welcoming. The restaurant was great and the people who work there are outstanding and they make a great Old Fashioned cocktail.

We had such an amazing stay! The staff went above and beyond, they were incredibly kind, upgraded us for free to celebrate my birthday and our engagement, and made us feel so special from the moment we arrived. The room was spotless, beautifully set up, and super comfortable. They even surprised us with a cute welcome bag filled with little goodies, which was such a thoughtful touch. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and we can’t wait to come back!

We stayed here for two days and left with mixed feelings. On the positive side, the staff were generally friendly, the room was spacious, and the location is very convenient to the ski area. The food was decent, and we appreciated that the hot tub was open during the winter season. However, the overall experience felt unprofessional. We unfortunately fell twice during our stay, once in the bathtub, which is slippery with a noticeable slope and no anti-slip mat, and once on the icy walkway right outside our door because salt had not been applied. We are fine, but it’s concerning to think about what could happen to an older guest in the same situation. The AC unit is also very loud when running. I ended up turning it off because it kept waking me up throughout the night, which made it hard to get enough rest. Around midnight someone knocked on our door and tried to enter with a key. It turned out the front desk had double-booked the room. The situation was frightening and should never happen at a professionally managed hotel.

Here for a business trip and cannot say enough good things about it the staff! The location and facilities were awesome too, but the staff was the best part. Not even exaggerating, managers, to front desk, kitchen staff and bartenders and servers were all so attentive and really cared! Had a blast, be back next time during the summer!

We had a wonderful stay! The hotel's location is beautiful, especially with the fall leaves, and having the recreational track right outside the property. The staff were friendly and helpful. Our room was well-designed and also beautifully fitted out, making it a very comfortable and clean space to relax. We really appreciated the small, thoughtful touches that made a big difference, like the complimentary coffee, the curated Spotify playlist, the availability of s'mores and fires etc. Everything was well-kept and clean. We would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a comfortable and memorable experience.

Tidy well designed room with comfy bed. They really thought of everything. Plenty of areas to hang your towels, clothes, and coats. Hot water kettle in the room, with coffee to steep, or tea. A noise machine to dull any outside noise. Nice firepit areas and hot tub. The gift shop was really well stocked with great hoodie and tote bag designs, and even s'more kits. The TV in the room was easy to figure out, and came in clear. Helpful happy staff, and hot coffee for early risers. We would definitely come again, especially because they are so close to the bike trails and walking distance to town in either direction. Well done Outbound!

Outbound Stowe appears to be a newer hotel in Stowe from what I read online. They are motel-style, but also have little private cabins that are lined up in the back of the property. I stayed in the Double Queen bed, handicap accessible room. It was very spacious and clean. The bed was comfortable. I found that they didn't have a lot of functional things in the room. There weren't a lot of places to hang up towels. They didn't give the usual hotel toiletries like the shower caps, cotton swabs, makeup remover wipes, etc. They did have an electric kettle in the room and a little tray where they had some tea bags, hot coco packets, and an ice bucket. I couldn't find the other amenities from the other review like the noise machine. We only went to the main building to check in and check out, but I did see the hot coffee station and the gift shop. I didn't use either of these. I did, however, enjoy the complimentary smores one night when I had a sweet tooth. They put the kits out by the restaurant on site and there were two fire pits with a few chairs. I wish they had more, smaller fire pits so it could be a more private experience. (The people sitting at the fire pit didn't seem to appreciate when we asked if we could use the fire for smores.) The fire pits are also by an inground pool and a hot tub. The pool had signage that said it was closed, but they did not cover the pool. I'm not sure if the hot tub was open and I didn't see anyone use it during my stay. The WiFi was abysmal, which really was inconvenient because my boyfriend and I did not get great cell service for the entire trip. We were really relying on WiFi when we went to different businesses to plan things and make reservations. Because WiFi was not great at the hotel, some functions of the TV were unusable. These could be growing pains for the hotel if they are a newer business in Stowe, so hopefully they continue to grow and improve because the location is great and the foundation of a great hotel is definitely there!
