Hyatt Regency Greenwich

8/10 Good
"We came up from Queens as a way to get out of the NYC and to enjoy the pool and amenities. The cab ride from the train was only $12. The property is amazing and so well decorated. You can tell that the furniture and interiors were well thought out. The whole inside/ outside atrium was wonderful at night. I love how relaxed and safe the hotel felt and walking around the hallways was giving 'liminal spaces'. I highly suggest the half chicken and salmon meal from room service that we ordered twice. We ate once in the restaurant but they didn't have many options for vegan/veggie or kids, so it was nice -but- the room service was much better option for us. We really love the tiny shop of snacks and also there was a shopping center directly next to the hotel and a CVS we were able to walk over to. The main problem that would stop me from giving a 10/10 was that the pool , pool room and gym were not clean. We had a good time swimming on Friday and Saturday but by Sunday morning the pool was so dirty we didn't dare swim more than 20 minutes. Overall for ambience, location, price and experience I would recommend."

8/10 Good
"An easy overnight stay for our family of 5. Loved that all the furniture was Ethan Allen - felt so much better than typical hotel furniture. Loved the complimentary cookies water and coffee. Only minor complaints were we had to wait an unusual length of time to check in with only 1 group ahead of us, and we were only provided with 2 towels in a room for 5. If we were staying longer I would have asked for more."
