Luxury destinations in the Northeastern United States are spotlighted in this section.
A Luxury Cottage at New Hampshire’s Notchland Inn  Childhood memories meet grown-up reality in a dreamy cottage in the heart of New England’s White Mountain National Forest. Atkinson Resort - Warmth and Comfort in NH  The words “warmth” and “resort” don’t, in my experience, tend to come in the same breath. By their nature, resorts offer a multitude of facilities and activities to a multitude of people, and the warmth of a B&B is just not possible. I learned differently last weekend at the Atkinson Resort Beach-side Luxuries at Maine’s Inn by the Sea  Set in its own wild garden, above a long beach on Cape Elizabeth, Inn by the Sea combines very modern comforts -- and a green attitude -- with old-fashioned sun-and-sand-and-spa relaxation. Berry Manor Inn in Rockland Maine  Victorian grandeur combines with warm hospitality and a good dose of Yankee independence, not to mention spectacular fresh-baked pies. Boston Restaurant Find - BOKX 99 American Prime  The end of a Metro line might not be the first place you’d look for an outstanding restaurant, but that’s where we found BOKX 99 American Prime, in the Hotel Indigo, overlooking the Riverside Station in Newton, Massachusetts. Camden Harbour Inn - Perfect Spot to be Snowbound  I had awakened early to that unmistakable deep silence that we northerners instinctively recognize before our eyes are even open. The sound of snow, or rather the stillness of snow. Candlelight Dinner at Geneva on the Lake  What a treat it is when a place gets everything right. Dinner on the terrace of Geneva on the Lake lived up to everything we expected from this fabled luxury villa in New York’s Finger Lakes. Captain Lord Mansion in Kennebunkport Maine  My travels always have a purpose. I go to New Brunswick to kayak in the Bay of Fundy. I go to the White Mountains to ski. I never go someplace just to BE there. It's harder than you think. But at the Captain Lord Mansion, it becomes an art form. Christmas Farm Inn - Warm Welcome in New Hampshire  Without overdoing the Yuletide theme, Christmas Farm Inn keeps the holiday spirit year round, celebrating the simple joys of life each day. Spacious guest rooms and fine country dining welcome guests in all seasons. Easy-Going Luxuries at Purity Spring Resort  Most travelers don’t use the words “luxury” and “family” in the same sentence, but at Purity Spring Resort in New Hampshire’s White Mountains, the two words come together as naturally as cookies and milk. Enjoying Summer in Boston with Kids  Kid-friendly Royal Sonesta Hotel, overlooking Boston from across the river in Cambridge, was a perfect base for exploring the city.
Friday Night at Libby’s Bistro in Gorham NH  We’d heard from friends that Libby’s Bistro was good, but our Friday night dinner was so I-can’t-believe-I’m-eating-something-this-delicious that we went back on Saturday evening to be sure we hadn’t been eating hallucinatory mushrooms. Hotel Indigo - Luxury in Boston's Burbs  Just off an I-95 exit in the Boston burbs might not be a place you'd look to find a luxury hotel with an outstanding restaurant, but that's where we found both, at the Hotel Indigo in Newton. Hotel Veritas Perfect for a Weekend in Cambridge  Boston may get more attention, but for many of us, the real heart of “The Hub” is just across the river in Cambridge’s Harvard Square. And The Hotel Veritas is our new home-away-from-home there. Intercontinental Boston - Beauty on the Waterfront  Contemporary architecture in an historic setting, old-fashioned hospitality at a state-of-the-art hotel – Boston’s Intercontinental Hotel is comfortable in both worlds. J House Greenwich for Luxury near New York City  Luxury is not having to stay in New York City. We chose the Connecticut alternative and discovered a new hotel with an excellent restaurant and a nearby commuter rail station. Kayaking the Islands off Acadia National Park  A spectacularly beautiful day on Maine’s northern coast invites exploring coastal coves and islands by sea kayak Kids Love The Balsams, NH’s Mountain Resort  The Balsams, an historic grand resort hotel in northern New Hampshire, combines luxury and family-friendly experiences, even in the spa and the dining room. Loon Mountain Club Doesn’t Just Pamper Skiers  Ski right out the door and onto the gondola at Loon Mountain Club, in the heart of New Hampshire’s White Mountains. Or curl up in front of the fireplace with a good book, swim a few laps in the heated pool, luxuriate in the spa and forget the snowy landscapes outside. Mandarin Oriental – Boston’s Art Museum Hotel  In an art-filled get-away, we admire one of Boston’s great art museums, the latest work of one of the world’s greatest architects, and return to a hotel with its own museum of contemporary art. Michael’s on the Hill – Fine Dining in Stowe, VT  Vermont-grown ingredients transcend mere vegetables, meat and cheese in the inspired menus of Swiss-born Chef Michael Kloeti. Music and Luxury in a Round Barn  The Round Barn Farm in Waitsfield, Vermont, is a hilltop haven of warm hospitality, luxurious lodgings and -- in the summer -- grand opera.
Nestlenook Farm - NH’s Luxury Mountain Getaways  New Hampshire’s White Mountains don’t have an “off-season” -- there’s plenty to see and do all year round. In the heart of the mountains, Nestlenook Farm offers luxury in any season. Pennsylvania  Links to luxury accommodations, tours, dining and more in Pennsylvania. Rabbit Hill Inn Luxury Lodgings in Vermont  With the amenities of a hotel, the warmth of a B&B and the charm of a country inn, Rabbit Hill Inn, in Lower Waterford, Vermont, is a good base for outdoor adventures or a do-nothing getaway weekend. Restaurants in Boston’s New Seaport District  The addition of the Seaport Hotel to South Boston’s skyline was what the largely vacant area around the Seaport World Trade Center needed to bring it to life. Inspired by the success of the hotel’s own restaurant, Aura, other high-taste restaurants have followed. Room with a View - New Hampshire’s Snowvillage Inn  “A Room with a View” was written about a hotel in Florence, overlooking the Arno River as it flows under Ponte Vecchio, the most iconic of all Florentine views. But my favorite room with a view is far from Italy, and the view is a panorama of my own White Mountains, in New Hampshire. Sam's on the Waterfront - Annapolis Fine Dining  Sam's is what Annapolis is all about: the harbor, boats, fresh seafood, fine dining and good old-fashioned Maryland hospitality with a smart 21st-century style. Sofitel New York – French Style on 44th Street  Deliciously comfortable beds and a wrap-around balcony with an eye-to-eye view of the rising moon and the Chrysler Building – how can New York get any better than this?
Sugar Hill Inn Dream Cottage in NH White Mountains  Decorated with stylish rustication and filled with luxurious details, Sugar Hill Inn’s spacious Dream Cottage is indeed a New Hampshire dream. The Inn at Jackson – Luxury in the White Mountains  Architect Stanford White designed the big bungalow-style house on the hillside overlooking the village of Jackson, NH, one of the prettiest in New Hampshire’s White Mountains. The Seaport Hotel – Redefining South Boston  Fresh from my chocolate wrap at the Wave spa, I reposed upstairs to my suite at the corner of the 9th-floor of the Seaport Hotel to admire the late afternoon sun on the sailboats and white ferries darting around Boston Harbor. Thompson House Eatery - White Mountains Dining  In the classic New England village of Jackson, New Hampshire, a talented chef creates meals well worth the three-hour drive from Boston. Warm Hospitality at Maine’s Admiral Peary Inn  We love staying in low-key B&Bs where the focus is on comfort and good old-fashioned hospitality, which is just what we found at Admiral Peary Inn in Fryburg, Maine. Winnetu Oceanside Resort  Overlooking a mile of pristine beach on Martha’s Vineyard, this new resort combines contemporary style and old-fashioned hospitality for a perfect island getaway close to Boston. Woodstock Inn – Family Luxury in Vermont  Woodstock, Vermont, may not be the first place you’d think of for a family vacation, but it should be. The kid-friendly Woodstock Inn & Resort is only the beginning of the town’s charms. Woodstock Vermont B&B Offers Warm Welcome  Applebutter Inn is just what a B&B should be: not too big, comfortable and welcoming, a place where you immediately feel at home. And not pretentious about it. Luxury Travel Homepage | Editor's Picks Articles | Top Ten Articles | Luxury Travel Site Map
