This hotel is absolutely wonderful. The design is unique and very inviting, the rooms had a homey feel with special touches (fun mirror, vase with flowers and books stacked on the desk, chaise lounge chair to relax in, robes hanging in the closet!). No coffee in the room because THEY’LL BRING YOU A FRENCH ORESS IF YOU CHOOSE COFFEE IN YOUR ROOM! 10/10 this hotel is going to be my go to if I’m ever in the Norwalk area again! This place is amazing! Can’t wait til May 9 when they open the roof top again!

Great experience

From our arrival at check in to our departure, the staff was friendly and eager to help us enjoy our stay. Just an overnight stay while in the area for an event. Were we to return to Norwalk, we would certainly stay again.
