Top Barnes Nature Center Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Express Southington by IHG

8/10 Good

"A fairly clean hotel with very nice staff! The only thing that bothered us was the constant smell of weed/marijuana every day we were there."

The Farmington Inn & Suites

8/10 Good

"The room was nice though a few stains on the bathroom ceiling and the floor creaked a lot when the people above walked around but overall it was very nice. I was looking forward to waffles for breakfast but they were out of batter and I didn’t have a lot of time to wait and find someone to refill it. I enjoyed my stay and would stay again though I thought it was a bit pricey."

Delamar West Hartford

10/10 Excellent

"Best value in Greater Hartford - 1st class accomodations - fair price"

The Capitol Hotel

8/10 Good

"Parking was easy and safe. The room was amazing as the view of the Capitol at night is spectacular. Sheets were clean, but there was blood stain on it. Price for all this was very reasonable. Staff were friendly and very helpful. Breakfast was available, but we didn;t have any."

Wyndham Southbury

10/10 Excellent

"Excelente muy buen hotel todo limpio"

Red Roof Inn Meriden

8/10 Good

"Close to dining..OK for a one night stay"

Holiday Inn Cheshire - Southington by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"All was good, but there is definitely traffic noise from the nearby road. Wasn’t terrible though. I’m a pretty light sleeper and I was able to sleep. My in-laws ate breakfast there and said it was terrible. I wasn’t there for breakfast, so not first hand, but they made a point of saying how bad it was. There are a few breakfast places close by that we went to and they were great!"

Woodspring Suites Newington - Hartford South

8/10 Good

"Walk the person working the front desk was great. But then got into the elevador and it smelled disgusting! Like there was a dead animal somewhere in it, it was bad, I had to hold my breath. Then the halls dont have carpeting, which is fine but the floors were dirty and gross. Our room was very nice, clean, no complaints. Checked out at 745am and there was no worker, a steel plate covers the desk area, odd, and people sitting in the waiting area in bath robes, weirded us out. Location is also great."
