A beautiful in directly opposite from the Florence Griswold museum and the art association.
A 10 min walk down Lyme street yields some beautiful houses to look at (although there isn't a centre of town so much).
The inn has nice lounge spaces to hang out in.
Ideally situated off US Route 1, near I-95 in the city of Old Saybrook, Connecticut, Pier Blue Old Saybrook - Clinton is only a short distance from many attractions.

Breakfast good and i was able to eat it in my room.
Although I did not use them, the ironing board and iron are a really good idea, and the hair dryer.
This Old Saybrook, Connecticut hotel is a 5-minute drive from Harvey’s Beach and the Katharine Hepburn Cultural Arts Center. It features a breakfast buffet and rooms with a 32-inch flat-screen TV.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at this hotel, and I must say, it exceeded my expectations in many ways. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly greeted by the staff, who were extremely kind and attentive. We truly felt welcomed and valued throughout our entire stay, which made a significant difference in our overall experience.
The room was spotless, and the bed was incredibly comfortable, ensuring that we had restful nights during our stay. It’s clear that the hotel takes great care in maintaining the cleanliness and comfort of their rooms, which we greatly appreciated.
If I had to mention one minor drawback, it would be the size of the room, which was a bit on the small side. However, the coziness and the overall comfort made up for it, so it didn’t impact our stay too much.
We also had dinner at the hotel’s restaurant, and while the service was excellent, the menu didn’t quite meet our expectations. We were hoping for a bit more variety or something that stood out, but unfortunately, it fell a little short of what we had hoped for.
On a positive note, the breakfast was fantastic. It was very well-curated, offering a complete and healthy selection that catered to a variety of tastes. We appreciated the attention to detail and the fresh, nutritious options available, which made for a great start to our day.
Overall, despite the small room and the dinner experience, our stay was wonderful, largely due to the fantastic service, the comfortable accommodations, and the excellent breakfast. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a warm, welcoming place to stay, and I would gladly return in the future.
Built in 1889, this hotel is located in the scenic Lower Connecticut River Valley, within the historic town of Essex. It features a restaurant and has elegant Victorian décor.

We ate at the restaurant and had very friendly waiter and a delicious dinner. No-one was there at the early hour we dined at and we had a nice table by the window. The Inn is near several other towns and we had tickets to the show playing at the Goodspeed Opera House. A short drive to the theater.
Also, we were pleased that our room was ready before 3, so we we were able to check in early.

Very Accommodating, friendly staff which bent over backwards to help us learn about the historic area. This inn is directly across the street from 2 painting galleries and of course, the Griswold Art Museum and gardens!
The periwinkle ground cover and daffodils were all in bloom!
Don't pass up this great place to stay.

We enjoyed our stay.
We enjoyed our stay. The staff was wonderful and very helpful. Our rooms were lovely. Very large and cozy. The fireplace was wonderful. The food was great. My favorite part of our stay was the morning live jazz at breakfast. The owner was part band and it was a sweet touch. We were with 8 people and our stay could not have been better.

Charming town full of history and the connection to the American Impressionism group. While my purpose to be in the area was to enjoy the show at Ivoryton Playhouse, which is the oldest continuing summer theater ( now year round ), you can get to the shore easily. Old Saybrook, Westbrook, Niantic, Mystic, NewLondon etc…. Chester is wonderful to grab a delicious baked good! Only 40 mins from West Hartford too.

This town is interesting - a very fancy, small town.
This town is interesting - a very fancy, small town. The Florence Griswald Museum is beautiful and worth the trip. There are several art museums, and places to participate in lessons and actually create fine art. There are hiking trails, a great place for a massage, and a lot of charm. It is proximate the the water, and you can kayak or participate in boating. There are amazing biking trails. Old Lyme is worth a visit.

I was in town for the memorial service of a dear friend of 50 years so it was a sad time for me. The area is pristine! The countryside like a jewel yet so close to the main highway...a perfect location.
