    Wonderful boutique hotel. Comfortable, hip atmosphere. I enjoyed the Italian restaurant as well.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Very nice hotel, staff was friendly and helpful, breakfast was great, beds were very comfortable. The ambiance created by the hotel design was relaxing. The rooftop was a nice surprise. The only negative was that the listing said beach access and it was not by the beach. However downtown Norwalk and the beach area is less than a 10 minute drive. Will be returning.

    The style, appointments are very attract I’ve. Parking is seamless outside or in the self-parking garage. The restaurant is lovely and wait staff and menu are top notch!

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Clean room, nice staff. Right next to train and water so can be very loud. Ice machine from the 1980s was incredibly loud all day and night.

    I enjoyed the environment and atmosphere of the hotel. Staff were kind and attentive to guests.

  • Engine customer May 2026

    Good restaurant to have diner! To book recept on room extra fee was added to price. (Not mentioned before). Rooms are very nice, enough space. Luxury bathroom. Topbar only open for restricted parties! So not accessible for “normal” customers. Breakfast extreme bad!!! Plastic knife/fork so not able to spread butter on sandwich. No cheese or meet or other stuff to put on sandwich accept Nutella in plastic. No eggs, or other stuff as usual. (You could prepare a tasteless pancake… ). Fruit available in prepared plastic/paper buckets, so tasteless. Limited fitness, but oké!

  • Engine customer May 2026

    Amazing stay! Would stay again!
