The Middlebury Inn has anchored the village green in Middlebury, Vermont since 1827, when Nathan Wood opened it as the Vermont Hotel. Renamed the Addison House in 1852 and substantially renovated under Allen Calhoun beginning in 1897, the property reopened as The Middlebury Inn in 1927 and has operated continuously for more than 180 years. The adjacent Porter Mansion, an 1825 brick home with a curved staircase and marble fireplaces, joined the inn in 1941 and holds nine Victorian guest rooms, while twenty modern annex units followed in 1968. Set in the heart of the Champlain Valley overlooking Middlebury's town green, the inn pairs its historic character — antique grandfather clocks, carved mantelpieces, and Victorian-accented guest rooms — with amenities including Morgan's Tavern restaurant, Waterfalls Day Spa, a business center, and complimentary fitness center access. For events, the inn offers the Founder's Room, a high-ceiling ballroom with crown molding and a working marbled fireplace overlooking the town square, along with an outdoor courtyard nestled between two of its historic buildings — settings suited to weddings, elopements, corporate meetings, and private celebrations.
