Top Branford Hotel Reviews

Hyatt Place Milford / New Haven

8/10 Good

"The rooms were nice and big. Kind of weird layout. But my family and I did sleep well in the beds and comfortable pillows. My room had a mini fridge and a small kitchen sink. No microwave. Shower had nice hot water and great water pressure. No carpets in the rooms so it got noisy with people walking around above you. We ate breakfast next door at POPS! And that was DELICIOUS!!!!"

Trumbull Marriott Shelton

6/10 Okay

"Pros: - close to office I was traveling for - comfortable bed - not-feather pillows (feathers do not support my side-sleeping) - small gym and cardio rooms - space to work in room (desk) - neat reading lights on the bed’s headboard Cons: - old property (looks worn; ceiling tile in closet coming down, carpet bunches in places) - bathtub faucet sprays water out during shower (though I suppose the spray was nice for cleaning feet) - no fan for the bathroom (I don’t like not having a fan on during a shower) - room refrigerator did NOT work - asked if fridge could be repaired, but it never was while I was there - pool did not look clean enough to swim in (water looked yellow) [this is specific to the indoor pool; there is also an outdoor pool that I didn’t look at because it was too cold to swim outside] - hot tub listed as amenity, but covered by wooden boards and obviously not available - treadmills are older and squeak a lot during use - breakfast is not included in room price (continental AYCE, but $20+ per person) The price and distance are what I needed for the reason I was in the area, but I would not go out of my way to stay here again, despite the fact that this hotel was rated a little higher than others at a similar price. Not the worst hotel experience I’ve had, just too many cons to not give the other hotels a chance (and possibly pay a little more)."
