Top The Children's Museum Hotel Reviews

DoubleTree by Hilton Hartford Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"pool was under maintenance unfortunately, gym was clean and well furnished. room cleaning was regular and thorough. lack of free breakfast is disappointing but i did know about it before booking so that is mostly my fault. staff was very helpful and very friendly."

Candlewood Suites Windsor Locks Bradley Arpt by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"First impressions is that its not the 'poshest' in the category but once you get in its clean, nicely decorated, spacious and convenient, Did not check out the amenities this trip but I did see that the pool was under construction. I'd stay here again."

The Capitol Hotel

8/10 Good

"Rooms are very clean!"

Woodspring Suites Newington - Hartford South

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room"

HYATT house Hartford North/Windsor

10/10 Excellent

"Very surprised about everything compared hotels close by that have stayed at. We'll be back again forsure. Thank for the staffs dedication"

Hampton Inn & Suites Hartford/East Hartford

8/10 Good

"Very clean and convenient off the highway. Staff was extremely helpful the first day. Different staff the next day was not so helpful. Other than that, highly recommend"

The Goodwin Hotel

8/10 Good

"The hotel is excellent. The location, unfortunately, is not. Hartford is not exactly a place to hang out in, and after work is done, the city seems to shut down. There's not much to do except attend a basketball game, which is what we were there for, but the hotel itself has everything you need. Honestly, if you need to stay the night in Hartford, I would recommend the Goodwin because you literally don't need to leave since it has everything."

Simsbury 1820 House

10/10 Excellent

"Quaint Inn in a scienic location."

Comfort Inn & Suites East Hartford - Hartford

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was helpful courteous rooms were clean, beds were a bit too soft for me personally, however my staff was very comfortable and restful."
