The Glen House - A 68-room hotel at Mt. Washington's base with saltwater pool and panoramic mountain views

Located at the base of Mount Washington, this 2-star Gorham hotel features 68 rooms with modern amenities including 55-inch flat-screen TVs and fully tiled bathrooms. Half of the accommodations offer private balconies facing the Northeast's highest summit. The property includes an indoor heated saltwater pool and The Notch Grille restaurant serving comfort food favorites. Named 'The Most Beautiful Bar in New Hampshire' by Architectural Digest, the hotel bar showcases floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the Presidential Range. The Glen House provides direct access to 28 miles of trails at the adjacent Great Glen Trails Outdoor Center. The Mount Washington Auto Road, America's oldest man-made attraction, allows guests to drive to the 6288-foot summit from late May through October.

“This property stands out primarily for its striking location and views, a highlight from the moment you arrive. While the rooms prioritize cleanliness and comfort over luxury, the exceptional service in the restaurants makes dining a pleasure. It's a place where the scenery and staff create a memorable experience, overshadowing any minor shortcomings in the accommodations.”
