Detailed Reviews
Having stayed at the Commodores Inn 3 or 4 times over the years (though it had been several years since our last stay), we booked this over the phone while on the road for that night. The front desk staff were very pleasant, but sadly, the hotel itself is looking a little run down and dated although it was obvious that great efforts were made to keep it clean. The room was comfortable enough, although when we walked downstairs from our 2nd floor room we could smell cigarette smoke, suggesting that a guest was likely sneaking a smoke in their room. The lobby area, although we didn't sit down there, was very nice. We were disappointed to find, however, that the restaurant is not the same one that had been there on previous visits and is now run by a 3rd party. We had a peek at it and it is more of a sports bar type place with a menu to match. We walked into town for dinner instead. There are basic foods out in the lobby for breakfast (toast, bagels, etc.), but we didn't avail ourselves of it. Compared to many places in Stowe, this is still a more reasonable price, and not a bad place to stay, but unfortunately not as wonderful as we remembered it.

We stayed here for 2 nights in August. On the outside this is an attractive place. It has an outdoor pool and a large pond where they offer canoes and kayaks and a pedal boat to enjoy the pond. I swam in the pool and it was lovely.
The room was a good size and the bed was comfortable. They provide good amenities.
The problem was a guest, I believe a long-term guest, in the next room who was allowed to smoke. The Vermont State law prohibits inside smoking in all hotels and motels. On the surface this place seems to be complying. You have to sign a statement that you will not smoke in your room. They have signs on the outside doors that if you smoke you will be charged $250 and evicted. Well in practice this is not what happens. I complained to the front desk staff member on both nights about someone smoking in their room. The first night I couldn't determine which room, but by the second night I figured out it was the room next to ours. I hate smoking and it bothers me a lot. I complained verbally and formally about this and nothing was done. I emailed the owner, no reply. We will not be going there again and you may not want to either.

We are so sorry about the experience you had with the smell of smoke beside your room. I am not sure why nothing was done about it. I will be checking with the staff why they did not knock on the door where the smell was coming from. Yes, normally a fee is charged and I am not sure why this did not happen as well. Rest assured I will be checking on what happened when you stayed with us. We certainly appreciate your feedback and again apologize for that unpleasant experience.

Hotel is walking distance from many restaurants. It was the cheapest hotel deal that I could find that wasn't a motel and had about a 4 star rating. It is a pet friendly hotel and there were some stains on the carpet, but I generally just know hotel carpets are not that sanitary so this was something that was known as a possibility. Couldn't get the bubbles to work in the hot tub, but pool and hot tub were nice temperature, though some hair and such floating around, as expected in public pool/hot tub. The staff had told us upon check in about someone breaking into some rooms previously, which made us feel "really safe" haha, but nothing shady happened during our stay. Staff was nice, town was cute.

The general staff were great but be careful most of the hotel air conditioning doesnt work other than hot air. The pool can get quite nasty. The general manager Valerie was EXTREMELY rude the whole accommodated time i was there and was very on the fat shaming side so be cautious i advise if anyone wants a true stowe bloods advice id take your money elsewhere any hotel is way more up to code and comfort avoid this place ever has do not stop here at all costs i hope this helps because they will also throw out your food unlike other hotels ( I highly suggest grey fox inn)

This hotel is so outdated it should be a museum. The room had water stains on the ceiling and smelled funky. The rest of the hotel is not much better. I walked around the third floor area and couldn’t believe all of the crap I saw in the hall. Wall paper peeling off the walls and furniture that was old and torn, why doesn’t someone throw it out. Nobody would ever sit on it. The staff as friendly enough. Whoever owns this place has to realize it needs a total makeover.
The restaurant on the property was very good and the staff extremely friendly. The food and drinks were all very good also.
I know we will never stay at this place again.

Great service with someone at the desk 24/7. Clean, non-smoking room as requested. Pool a bit chilly for me but we got use to it quickly. Disappointed the hottub was under construction needing work. Very quiet area. Room dark with great room darkening drapes. TV size good - you could see it easily in bed. Pillows were a bit too soft /flat for us but they brought up 2 better pillows within 10 minutes of our request. Yes, I'm go back again. Close to great dinner and breakfast places.

Although I am only giving this hotel 4 stars, for the money, it is absolutely a 5 star value. Rooms are large and clean, with plenty of space for your gear. We were traveling with a little one, and had plenty of space for a pack and play as well. Pool, jacuzzis and saunas (his and hers for the saunas, which is great) are impossible to come by at this price point. The hotel is super easy to access, minutes from town and popular restaurants and just a few miles from the mountain (with free shuttle access right at the lodge). Breakfast is free and the complimentary evening cookies are delicious and a great treat.
All things considered, this hotel is comparable with resorts at double the price, and is terrific for family’s looking for a nice ski getaway, at a reasonable cost. We even went on a holiday weekend, and there was no multi night minimum. Thanks Commodore!

Stayed one night here on our way through Vermont. Hotels in Vermont aren’t cheap but the price of this one was reasonable. It’s definitely dated but that’s to be expected for the price. The room was ok but we did have an unexpected visitor when we first entered the room. There was a frog in our bathroom that I had to relocate outside. Also the hallway outside our room smelled strongly of dog urine. We’ve stayed in worse places but glad we were only here for one night. We didn’t take advantage of any of the amenities while there so I have no feedback on those. We did eat at their restaurant, which was good. Overall an ok experience for the price.

We won't be staying at the Commodores Inn again. Check in was odd, chiefly because the front desk person (no mask, it's still a pandemic) was coughing all over the place and didn't seem too worried that she was handing us our keys, paperwork to sign, etc. Grant it, there was a partial glass partition but no way should she have been the first person you meet in the hotel. It was apparent that she felt the same way. I get that businesses are working with skeleton staffs right now, but still. Making your first time guests feel a tiny bit welcome would have gone A LONG WAY here.
The hotel room was spacious, had a coffee maker and a refrigerator and was very quiet. I heard that there is a nice restaurant and indoor and outdoor pools on the property. That being said, the guest rooms need an overhaul. Everything is very dated, overused and the water pressure for the shower is non existent.
During check out, the front desk person refused to print an invoice for us, saying, 'You got a copy of your invoice when you checked in, why can't you use that?" and was argumentative when asked again for a copy of the final invoice. They need to do better.
Sorry, Commodores. I wanted to like you but three strikes and you are all the way out.
