On a recent visit to Norwalk, Connecticut I stayed at the Norwalk Inn & Conference Center based on the positive memory of a stay there six or seven years ago. The Inn's historic neighborhood and the beautiful grounds of the Inn confirmed that the choice was the right one but nothing could have prepared me for what was to follow. The hotel had changed in every possible way - more refined, even friendlier than I had remembered and exquisitely renovated public areas that were more reminiscent of high end big city hotels rather than an historic Inn.
Granite everywhere, plasma screen TV's, complimentary high speed access not only in the lobby but in all guest rooms as well,
wonderful complimentary breakfasts including make your own Belgian waffles and even complimentary shuttle service almost on demand. But the Inn's greatest resource are its employees ... from front desk personnel to restaurant and bar staff to housekeeping personnel ... all gracious and accommodating to a fault and all seemingly empowered by the Inn's private ownership to take initiative and go the second mile.
Warm yet sophisticated, high tech yet personal - this is a boutique property in every way.
I don't mind paying for the best and here's a surprise. The Inn's rates are the most competitive in the area. I know. I checked.
