Significance: The Pavilion Hotel, erected partly on the foundations of the original hotel of 1808, is a fine example of American hotel architecture of the post-Civil War period with a particularly handsome two-storied veranda. The building has important associations with Vermont history and was visited by several Presidents of the United States. It is an especially harmonious element in the State House Green complex, relating extremely well in mass, scale, and placement with its neighboring structures.
