Top River Highlands State Park Hotel Reviews

Candlewood Suites Hartford Downtown by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"From check in to check out staff was excellent. The place isn’t fancy but modern and very clean."

The Capitol Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I know there were mixed reviews about this establishment however it was very nice. I went with my mother for the weekend. The staff was friendly and very helpful. The parking at the hotel is $15/night. The Wifi is complimentary as well as the breakfast. It is maybe a 5 minute walk to Pratt District and other areas of downtown Hartford. The room was clean and comfortable. The room had a microwave and refrigerator which was nice. For those that are light sleepers you could hear people outside your room but it did not matter to me. I would stay here again."
