A Trip Back to the Best Western Sovereign Hotel in Keene NH

This was the website created to promote the Best Western Sovereign Hotel during at least the years between 2003 - 2004. The archived information gleaned from the original site in addition to some outside sources was used to create this page as you see it now.

If you are looking to book what is now called the Best Western Plus Sovereign Hotel, Keene there are several sites including TripAdvisor, that can handle your needs. You can also book through Best Western Hotels & Resorts HERE. It sure looks a lot different today than it did back in 2003.

The 2016 Entrance is a far cry from the 2003 entrance.

Or on the other hand you can take a nostalgic stroll back to 2003 when the prices for the Best Western Sovereign Hotel's rooms were very reasonable.

Update: I used to stay at the Best Western Sovereign Hotel when I was visiting my father who was in a nursing home. He had suffered a stroke and could not return to the assisted living facilities where I had moved him after my mother died. Fortunately my work as an interior designer allowed me to work from just about any location that had decent internet. He couldn't use a normal computer, so I bought him a keyboard with very large keys and he took to it very well. He loved playing free slots and he found a referral site by searching for "US slots online" and he was even able to bookmark the listings so he could find it quickly. He tried his hand at poker, but reverted to slots since they didn't require much concentration. I could tell that he loved the splashy graphics and the sounds that accompanied the games. The staff was concerned that he might start losing money until they realized that he only played free games. When he passed away I gave his computer to the facility and they put it to good use in the library. Well, I doubt I will be returning to the Best Western Sovereign hotel anytime soon. But I would recommend it to visitors needing a place to stay in the Keene NH area.
