The Four Chimneys Inn ReviewThis 1912 Colonial Revival catches your eye as you roll into Bennington from the west; it's at the edge of Old Bennington, so the towering Bennington Monument looms just over its shoulder. Set back from Route 7 on an 11-acre, nicely landscaped lot, this imposing white three-story structure features -- no surprise -- four prominent chimneys. It was once a fancy-pants restaurant where such luminaries as Liz Taylor and Walt Disney supped. Today, the guest rooms (in the main inn, an ice house, and a carriage house) are inviting and homey; some sport real fireplaces burning actual wood, and some have nice Jacuzzis, four-poster beds, and/or mountain views. The overall atmosphere seems to be improving with the latest owners, the Greens, who married at the inn.

| 3 stars | Frommer's Exceptional |
Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
