Peru, Vermont—Saltaire Hotels announces its latest opening, Sun Lodge. Located in Peru, VT, 15 minutes Northeast of the Manchester area, the newly opened Sun Lodge invites travelers to experience comfortable lodge-style living at the foot of Bromley Mountain. Whether planning an escape for when the slopes glisten or looking to head to the mountains for beautiful forest hikes in the summer, Sun Lodge offers the perfect home base to embrace the vast outdoors of Vermont. Previously known as The Lodge at Bromley, under new ownership with Saltaire Hotels and management with Migis Hotel Group, Sun Lodge has been fully refurbished with all new interiors designed to emphasize and enhance the best aspects of the original architecture and a revitalized food and beverage program featuring locally sourced ingredients.
Celebrating 50 years on Bromley Mountain, Sun Lodge has a rich history in the community both on and off the slopes. For five decades, the property has welcomed visitors to enjoy the scenic beauty of Bromley Mountain. While the hotel is rooted in tradition, Sun Lodge is introducing its unique take on Vermont hospitality. Ideally situated at the base of Bromley Mountain with sweeping mountain views of Bromley, Stratton, and Magic Mountains, this location provides year-round access to the area’s natural beauty and recreational opportunities, from the Appalachian Trail to the Battenkill River. The Golden Triangle of Bromley, Magic, and Stratton Mountains offers visitors endless hiking, skiing, fishing, mountain biking, golfing, and more opportunities.
“Our vision for Sun Lodge is to blend the nostalgia of the property’s rich history with modern comforts that truly capture the spirit of Southern Vermont,” said Bob Thomas, Owner of Saltaire Hotels. “We’ve taken great care in refurbishing the hotel to ensure it feels both familiar and refreshed, offering guests an inviting retreat at the foot of Bromley Mountain. Whether visiting for skiing in the winter or outdoor adventures during the warmer months, we are excited to welcome travelers and provide them with an authentic Vermont experience that celebrates the natural beauty and charm of this region.”
