Looking to visit New England in 2007.
Can anyone suggest any nice Hotels/Inns for me to look at?
Any other tips would be most welcome.
Many Thanks
Have just returned from there. Where abouts are you going?
Dear Johnp
The best tip I have is book your flights in the January sale that most of the larger airlines have.
http://www.wheatleigh.com - yes, pricey but aren't you worth the luxury?
Marcia, not sure of your budget range but would highly recommend a couple of nights at one of the most unigue hotels in North America - The Wheatleigh. It is located in the Berkshire mountains of western Massachusetts in the town of Lenox. See Could anybody tell me the best time the visit New England for maximum colour of the maple leaves
I have merged your post with an existing one on New England.
I believe the fall (autumn) is the best time to go so I would guess mid-September to October.

There is a standing joke in New England that when asked the best time to visit they reply it's 10.10am on 10th October. and thats not far from correct.
I would go around that time, but it also depends on where you visit, the higher you or the further north you go the earlier it is but only by a few days. so look to visit the White or Green mountains area.
Once there the local weather stations show maps of the area giving peak colour to low colour daily.
Also check when Columbus Day (weekend,) and a New England weekend is Friday and Saturday is as this is the time it gets really busy on the roads and all the hotels are fully booked.
A final tip is to look at the hotel prices, they rise when it's peak colour time.
