There’s a reason this place still stops people in their tracks.
Hello everyone, I'm Céline McArthur. The Mount Washington Hotel was already a destination when it opened in 1902, drawing travelers to the White Mountains long before anyone could have imagined the role it would eventually play in American history. Then came world leaders, diplomats, and defining moments that helped shape the modern world.
What makes this place special isn’t just that history happened here. It’s that the stories are still being told every day.
At Omni Mount Washington Resort & Spa, guests can take daily historic tours led by authors and historians who care deeply about this property and the people who passed through it. No two tours are the same. One day, you might hear about presidents and wartime diplomacy. Another, the hidden details, personal stories, and moments most people have never heard before.
It feels less like a scripted tour and more like stepping into the living history of the resort itself.
If you’ve never experienced it, Fourth of July weekend is one of the best times to come, with fireworks, music, mountain air, and a celebration that feels perfectly at home in a place with this much American history behind it. But the tours continue all season long, inviting guests to experience the legacy of this resort far beyond the holiday weekend.
