Frequently asked questions

What other neighbourhoods are similar to Waterfront?
The best neighbourhoods similar to Waterfront are the historic downtown area of Waterfront and the South End.

The historic downtown area, just south of Waterfront Park, shares many similarities with Waterfront. It's the city's commercial and cultural hub, with Church Street Marketplace at its heart – a pedestrian-only zone lined with shops, restaurants, and street performers. You'll find a mix of historic buildings and modern amenities here. This area is superb for couples who enjoy easy access to dining, shopping, and entertainment within a walkable setting.

The South End, located just south of the historic downtown, offers a distinct but equally appealing experience. It's known for its artistic community, with numerous studios, galleries, and breweries housed in repurposed industrial buildings, particularly along Pine Street. It also boasts several parks and lakeside access points.
When is the best time to go to Waterfront?
The best time to visit the Waterfront in Vermont is during the summer months, from June to August, or in the autumn, from September to October.

Summer offers consistently warm weather, ideal for enjoying Lake Champlain and the various outdoor activities available. You'll find boat tours, cycling along the Burlington Greenway, and lively events at Waterfront Park. The longer daylight hours mean more time to explore and relax by the water.

For those who appreciate cooler temperatures and stunning scenery, autumn is an excellent choice. The surrounding hillsides transform with vibrant foliage, making for picturesque drives and walks.
Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?
Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline − this is often within 24 to 48 hours of your scheduled arrival. If you have a non-refundable booking, it might still be possible to receive a refund if you cancel it within 24 hours of booking. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use our 'Fully refundable property' filter during your search to find the right Waterfront hotel for you.

One Key™—Expedia's free travel rewards program—gives you instant access to discounts with Member Prices on Waterfront hotels. Plus, you'll earn OneKeyCash™* on eligible bookings to use on future trips. Booking an Expedia hotel and flight package is another great way to save, where bundling can result in significant savings. *Excludes taxes and fees. OneKeyCash is not redeemable for cash and can only be used on Expedia and other participating brands.
