WHERE: Bretton Woods, New Hampshire, USA
WHY WE WANT TO BOOK IT: For that grand Wes Anderson-y resort experience. Built in 1902 and refurbished in 2009, Omni Mount Washington Resort houses 269 bedrooms, four award-winning restaurants and cinematic old-world common areas — including an original Tiffany stained glass skylight on the top floor and a cave-like Proibition-era speakeasy bar.
BEST TIME TO VISIT: All-year-round, with plenty of activities for every season. But it is particularly appealing in wintertime.
WHO SHOULD CHECK IN: The whole family. And your friends. And the family and friends of your friends. There’s so much to do, especially outdoors. The Breton Woods Canopy Tour and its extensive network of zip lines and tree bridges, horseback riding, tennis courts, a 27-hole golf course, two climbing walls, snow shoeing and Alpine and Nordic skiing. For the little ones, dog-led slides and a dedicated snow mobile park.
WHAT ELSE IS CALLING MY NAME? The spa. A complex of heated indoor and outdoor pools and 25,000 square feet of facilities featuring sauna, steam room and 13 treatment rooms — most of them with breathtaking White Mountains views. Some of the services start with a walk through the resort’s herb garden, where a therapist shares the healing properties of each herb and together you create a fresh, custom blend for your experience.
WHAT ABOUT THE RATES? As of February 2025, rates start at $229 for a tradicional room and can go up to $1,396 for a Presidential Wing suite. Check the hotel’s website for the best and most updated pricing.
