Unforgettable Dining
Our contemporary New England cuisine has been rooted in the local and seasonal long before they were the mots du jour on menus across the country.
If you are looking for a different type of meeting space, than look no further than The Vanderbilt! Our team didn't want our meetings in the classic bland conference rooms all day for our 2-day retreat and The Vanderbilt couldn't have been a better match. Every "meeting" room is stunning and comfortable, and the staff is incredible, helping with every little last minute event thing that always pops up. Also, the guest rooms are luxurious, and our team was so grateful for this hotel choice. I can't say enough good things about our experience here! via TripAdvisor 2025
