Top Eli Whitney Museum Hotel Reviews

New Haven Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Love the place mainly for the staff and the city vibe. Rooms getting near needing a tech update - usb outlets, smart tvs, etc. The streaming app is a pain to use. Also, the pretty good free morning coffee (as well as the coffee for purchase) is ruined for anyone who takes it with cream - you won't find any, just CoffeeMate. Ugh. But It's my go to in New Haven, just needs a bit of attention."

Cambria Hotel New Haven University Area

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was friendly and welcoming upon check-in. Room was nice and clean. Great stay."

Omni New Haven Hotel at Yale

10/10 Excellent

"Hh"

Historic Whitneyville Cottage

10/10 Excellent

"Great location for access to New Haven and nearby communities, Merrit parkway and I-95 both close by. Great little house with everything you need for a comfortable stay."

Spa Inspired - 3BR Comfort Suite - Near Yale

8/10 Good

"Very clean and having an oven was nice. An older building on the top floor may be difficult to access for small children or those with mobility issues."

East Rock Gem: 5 min to Yale, King Bed, Fast WiFi & Parking

10/10 Excellent

"The unit is spacious with 3 full bedrooms. It is very tastefully decorated, and well appointed with everything you will need. It was extremely clean when we arrived. The location is excellent. So many cute walkable eateries nearby, and the neighborhood is lovely. We had a delightful walk in East Rock Park.Noise sensitive guests should be aware that there are neighbors upstairs. You will hear them talking in the back stairway and walking around overhead. This is normal for the type of historic building this property is in."

Sun Haven: 2-Bedroom near Yale & Downtown!

8/10 Good

"This unit is beautiful, newly remodeled, very clean and comfortable. It is on the third floor, something to consider if you have young children or much luggage. The front walkway and back parking area are not quite completed, but the house is easily accessible from the back. The location is very nice, in a lovely neighborhood, and is close to everything we needed. Our host was accommodating and helpful. We would definitely stay here again!"

Spacious Yale 2BR with Full Kitchen & WiFi

10/10 Excellent

"Apartment was cozy and the kitchen fully functional. The host was very nice, responsive and thoughtful. We would definitely recommend or stay again ourselves. "
