A new hotel situated at the base of the tallest peak of the Northeastern United States is set to open its doors and pay homage to legendary hotels of the past this fall.
The new Glen House Hotel will be the fifth iteration of the hotel erected since the original was constructed in 1852.
“We looked at the backdrop of Mt. Washington, Mt. Madison and Mt. Jefferson and wanted the hotel to look like it had been there for 100 years,” says Rolf Biggers, principal architect, BMA Architects & Planners of Amherst, N.H., who designed the hotel and aimed to pay homage to the New England resorts of the 1850s.
“It is simple and understated,” says Biggers. “The guestrooms have the simplicity of Shaker design. Half of them have views of Mt. Washington and sunset, while the others look towards neighboring Maine and the Wildcat Mountain Ski Area for sunrise views. The big bang when you enter the hotel is the glass wall in the lounge area, which frames the Presidential Range of the White Mountains.”
The new hotel is expected to open in mid-September. It is currently accepting reservations.

Oct 7, 2026Review: Prestige Oceanfront Resort
Vancouver Island gets progressively wilder as you leave Victoria behind and follow the coastline west. By the time you reach Sooke, about 45 minutes from the provincial capital, city blocks have surrendered to forests, rocky shoreline, sheltered coves and long views across the Strait of Juan de Fuca. Prestige Oceanfront Resort rises directly above Sooke Harbour, where boats move across the basin, and the Olympic Mountains form the horizon beyond the strait.
