Surrounded by shops and restaurants in Downtown, this informal boutique hotel is set in a townhouse dating from 1877. It’s a 3-minute walk from the Madam Brett Homestead, and a mile from both Beacon train station and the Dia:Beacon, an art museum housed in a riverside factory.

The 12 unfussy rooms feature free Wi-Fi, flat-screen TVs and minifridges. Some family rooms have bunk beds, while suites provide sitting areas with street views.

There’s a trendy restaurant and bar that offers regular happy hours, plus weekly live music and DJ nights. Parking is available.
