Surrounded by the lush forestry of Gorham, New Hampshire, The Glen House stands tall and elegant in the foreground of Mount Washington. With just 68 rooms and an indoor and outdoor swimming pool, the hotel's design is modern yet nods to its 1800 beginnings. There is also a full service restaurant, The Notch Grille, which offers typical American cuisine in a casual atmosphere.
The rooms are spacious and over half have a balcony overlooking mountain scenery.
The Mount Washington Auto Road is on the hotel's doorstep and offers an excellent, scenic drive as well as multiple hiking trails from marked areas.
The Glen House is also a strong advocate for sustainability. The hotel's energy consumption is reduced with the use of LED lighting throughout the hotel and a hydro-generator produces around 80% of the electricity needed to run the hotel. The outdoor fire-pit is fired with propane in order to maintain the Class I air quality standard found in the Great Gulf Wilderness area.
Guest rooms are simple but the location of The Glen House, at the base of the Mount Washington Auto Road, is unbeatable.
