Reviews and Ratings
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were cozy and beautifully designed with a charming fireplace and luxurious linens on the bed. The service was top-notch, offering convenient amenities like dry cleaning, thorough housekeeping, a delightful welcome drink, and even special pet amenities. The location couldn't have been better, situated right by the river, next to popular CT bars and Season's restaurant, and close to major events for those not just traveling customers. The dining experience was outstanding, especially with their included meals featuring the best steaks in town. The facilities were impeccable, providing everything necessary for a comfortable and enjoyable stay.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The rooms were beautifully decorated with great linens on the bed, especially with the fireplace, making it cozy and inviting. The service was exceptional with amenities like dry cleaning, housekeeping, a welcome drink, and even pet amenities available. However, the dining experience lacked variety, and the warm bread was a delightful touch. The location was perfect for attending big events, being close to the airport, and by the river, making it convenient to explore everything nearby.
I had a lovely stay at this hotel, surrounded by the forest and near the river. The proximity to a restaurant and wineries in the area was very convenient. The rooms were cozy, especially with the fireplace and great linens on the bed, but the price could have been more in line with the value offered.
