Bring a picnic and enjoy a fun family day out at East Rock Park. There's loads of space for the kids to run around and get some exercise.

East Rock Park is a great place to start out your day in Coastal Connecticut. This outdoor recreational space is recommended by fellow travelers, but it isn't the only thing to do here. Set aside time for other sights like Yale University, Yale Bowl, and University of New Haven to really enjoy what's on offer in the area.

No issues. Nice property, good location, attentive staff. Only knock is that the family suite has some very sharp edges that are eye-level for kids and had us worried. Throw some corner protectors on those and it’s a very reasonably sized and comfortable launching point for exploring Manhattan.

9/10 Wonderful! (645 reviews)
I liked my bathroom but there is no light stopping shade on the window,you can’t sleep when it’s morning.The window could use a nice curtain maybe to be used as sun cover. The guest were too noisy,was screaming until late at night,way past after midnight,nobody warned them. Ther is no coffee machine in the rooms that’s a big no.. other than that it was a beautiful historic place. But the amount of money we paid nightly we at least deserved a coffee machine in the room and maybe a mini fridge. Thanx
