Wiggins Tavern
Begin Your Forever Where History Lives.
The tavern itself traces back to an 18th-century structure originally built in 1786 by Benjamin Wiggins in Hopkinton, New Hampshire. In the early 20th century, Lewis Wiggins (descendant of Benjamin) had the tavern dismantled and meticulously reconstructed inside the Hotel Northampton. The original carved paneling, hand-hewn beams, and stone and brick hearths were carefully re-assembled to preserve the authentic feel of an early American tavern.

Outstanding Venue!
From the very first interaction, the team at The Hotel Northampton impressed us with their quick, kind, and creative communication style.

Every guest raved about the beautiful space and the charming town, and we know we will cherish these memories forever. We can't wait to return for future anniversaries and celebrations.
A Perfect NYE Wedding at Hotel Northampton
We had our wedding at the Hotel Northampton on New Year’s Eve (12/31/24), and it truly could not have been more unforgettable. From start to finish, the entire experience was absolutely flawless. My wife, our families, and all of our friends had an amazing time, and we are still hearing from guests about how beautiful and fun the night was. The hotel itself is elegant, timeless, and full of charm. It provided the perfect backdrop for a romantic winter wedding, and having everything under one roof made it incredibly convenient for us and our guests. A huge shoutout to the entire staff, who went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. In particular, Ruby Meng was outstanding—her professionalism, responsiveness, and genuine care made the planning process seamless and stress-free. She was a joy to work with and made us feel completely supported every step of the way. All of the recommended vendors were top-notch and worked together beautifully. The hotel’s attention to detail and coordination helped everything come together without a hitch. If you’re considering Hotel Northampton for your wedding or any special event, do not hesitate. It’s a beautiful venue with a stellar team that truly delivers unforgettable experiences.
