Killington-Pico Motor Inn

Like others have said, this place is a great find for the price. There is a really nice, large common space that make it great for groups of friends meeting up for a hiking or ski trip in the area. The breakfast is on par with most major hotel chains (bagels, english muffins, coffee, cereal, tea, waffles) and the rooms were clean and tidy. The owners are great. We will absolutely stay here again.

I booked a reservation here for a few nights so I could ski at Killington. Two weeks before the date, I broke my arm and damaged my leg, so I wanted to cancel the reservation. I called to cancel and the on-​staff member was the most unhelpful person that I’ve encountered in years. He was not only extremely condescending, short with me, directly rude and then I caught him in a small lie. They not only told me no, but that there was no one else to talk to.
You can compare this to canceling a gym membership and the person on the phone tells you to go f*%& yourself.
Thanks…

Stayed here for a few nights when in the area for a show at the Paramount. We got a decent price, and accommodations suited our needs. Yes, the place is pretty run down, with a lot of easy fixes that would go a long way. For example, how hard would it be to get the wall paper back on the wall? And a little paint, especially in the bathrooms, would go a long way.
They had a pool that looked pretty nice, but we didn’t get a chance to try it out. The hot tub was encased in its own wooden structure, but wasn’t open for the days that we were there. Upon closer inspection, it was decided that the hot tub wasn’t worth the risk of bacterial infection, anyway.
Free wifi was offered, but reception was iffy. There was a breakfast, but we passed on that, as we wanted to get on the road as soon as possible. Proprietor was very nice and helpful.
Not sure about a return visit.

The staff was not friendly. They were extremely rude. We paid for 3 people to stay on Friday and Saturday then 2 people to stay on Sunday. I was in the room, I should be able to choose who those people are. On Monday morning when we went to check out he wanted to then charge us for 5 people. He lied to us claiming that he was the only one working there, however I’d spoken to a woman over the phone multiple times that week to make sure that would be okay. In fact, Sunday night I called down with a quick question and a woman answered the phone. For location near the ski resort, it’s fine. But the beds are not comfy, the rooms are not clean and the professionalism is not there.

For the price and location its worth the money. rooms are out dated the bed was comfy shower works hot water good pressure. pool looked decent didnt go in. went to go in the hottub around 8:00 on my last night and they closed it early cause nobody was there they said? Well i was there lol it clearly says open till 9:30 but oh well other then that the owners were very nice.
Breakfast consumes of coffee, orange juice, English muffin or bagel and waffles enjoy

Ive here the last three Years for the Spartan Race. Place is perfect for the price. About 10−15min drive to the starting line. Best of all the breakfast is very carb loaded. Waffles, breads, cereals. Perfect before a long race. For me at least

Last minute three day weekend took us to Killlington/​Rutland over night. Read reviews and got a great price for this place on Priceline even late in day. Clean; older place but our room had no issues; good sized room with built in wall rack for skis — something I have not seen IN the room before; small but useable bathroom (even for handicapped me who uses a walker which takes up SPACE) — built in sink surround that extends over toilet for a shelf to put your STUFF on. Tub is orignal to room and is a small size with full glass shower surround.
Outside they have a hot tub and trampoline and other equipment; indoors they have a large games room.
It was a bit raw and chilly the night we were there and not sure if we were doing the room thermostat right; there was an oil filled heater and this did heat the room; think the wall unit kicked in later on. Might have been our error – we don’t have this kind of heating so not used to controls.
Wifi worked fine.
Priceline price of $ 53 was more than fair compared to other local spendy places and I could def see staying here to ski or for any events. Close to Rutland for food and any needed stuff you forgot – Walmart; Rite Aid and grocery stores are about 10 minutes away; there are rrestaurants in down town and if you go thru downtown headed South on Rt 7 there are more inc chain places and more shopping. Other restaurants are on Rt 4 between hotel and Rutland and on the Killington Access Road off of Rt 4 a mile or so East of this hotel. Some are seasonal so check first.
Did not try breakfast.
Only «flaw» was VERY high entry step to get INTO room; I am handicapped and short and had to get the step stool we carry at all times in the trunk out to get IN and OUT — even 6’2″ hubs remarked on how HIGH a step this was! Don’t know if they have any units with lower steps.

The parking lot is nearly rubble in spots. The room was clean, however there was not heat in the room so we had to get a space heater from the front desk. The heater didn’t really heat the room well, but there were plenty of blankets on the bed. The breakfast at least had hot waffles and orange juice and milk. The staff was super friendly and bent over backwards to make sure our needs were met to the best of their ability. The price was a little high for the «off-​season» but still not bad. I’d definitely stay here again. The wi-​fi barely worked in the room and didn’t work at all in the dining room.

This place sometimes gets a bad online rap from people who expect to pay McDonald’s prices for Maine lobster. As long as you understand that this isn’t a luxury resort, I’m SURE you’ll be more than happy staying over at the Killington-​Pico Motor Inn.
Ski trips (particularly the lift tickets) are expensive, and when coming here with friends ever since college, all we ever really need are just a few comfy beds for the end of our wild Killington nights. Add to that the complimentary hot/​cold breakfast, year-​round hot tub, and the awesome family that runs this hotel, and you’ve got the perfect «best kept secret» that Lynda M. describes. Rooms are kept clean, owners know me by name even though I’m far from a «frequent flyer» here, and the other guests are always fun to chat with in the cozy hotel lobby /​living room area.
A couple notes on mass transit for those that plan to rely on «The Bus» (the Killington region bus system). Morning buses en route to Killington pick up outside this hotel’s entrance at 30 minutes past the hour (as of this writing) on the «Diamond Express» (Rutland-​Killington) line. Check here for schedules:
. Evening buses are pretty much the same deal — just make sure you get on the Diamond Express, as the other bus just goes back and forth on the access road.

I just stayed here for a local event. The proprietors were polite, the rooms were clean and the place was quiet. They have a lot of amenities, including a game room, a hot tub, a pool and a swing. They do serve a continental breakfast, including waffles, but it’s all carbs and no maple syrup. There appears to be wifi, but I didn’t have a password (it might cost something, I don’t know).
If you’re looking to save money, I highly recommend going here.

This place is the best kept secret near Killington. It isnt fancy, but it is clean and very quiet. At only $ 44 a night in the summer, plus free breakfast, it is a deal. It is family owned and everyone was very helpful and kind. The outdoor hot tub would be nice after a day of skiing.
