Ξενοδοχεία με The Barnum Museum, Bridgeport

The Circle Hotel in Fairfield (named for the Fairfield Traffic Circle by which the hotel sits) is a recently refurbished locally operated property. The rooms are clean and the furniture is comfortable. Read other reviews here for great or advice on room locations. An added bonus is the Circle Diner next door, within walking easy distance and a local favorite. A detraction for me was the new TV system — I just didn’t get it. I live locally and had to stay here two nights while my apartment under repair. I’d gladly recommend Circle Hotel to anyone. Very convenient location to shopping, too!

This Marriott was the worst Marriott I ever stayed in. Walking in from the outside you could see it wasn’t being maintained, no landscaping and leaves everywhere. Everything about the hotel was dated. Nothing was maintained: carpet is coming up, wallpaper is peeling in the rooms, multiple stains on furniture. The health club is abysmal. Two very small rooms: one with cardio and one with weights from the 1970s. The pool is old and small. This hotel has never been updated and it’s absurd that they charge money to stay here. I have stayed in hundreds of Marriotts and in general would recommend most, this one has been seriously neglected.

My stay with my son is as nice they’re breakfast was wonderful not continental at all everything was clean but they charge you an extra 100 for a deposit to make sure you don’t smoke I get the policies but they should have something on the internet or anything to let people know that they have to spend extra money it seems like they are being sneaky when it comes to that part other then that it was a great stay.

I stayed at the RI in Shelton CT for a travel assignment in May of 2020. This company and hotel is amazing! It is located in a very safe area, I was only 10 minutes from the hospital. The complex is quiet and clean. My room was very large and felt like a private apartment. It had a full kitchen and even though I brought dishes and pans, I didn't need too. They provided everything. I broke a glass mixing bowl and they were not worried about the damage, they just wanted to make sure I was ok. The housekeeping service was on hold for the cleaning room due to COVID but they provided everything I needed to keep the space clean and my sheets and towels fresh! I honestly felt so welcomed and even though I was away from home I had my cats with me so it made me feel comfortable and at ease. The Staff even wrote me a note during nurses week. Honestly, I couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. I am forever thankful to the RI staff!

This hotel looks promising when you walk in, with high ceilings, spacious, airy common areas, and subtly modernistic décor. First, the good points about my week-long stay: the staff was friendly, check-in was fast, the room was clean, and it was nice to have daily housekeeping, which I had started to think was a relic of the past. I also liked the spaciousness of the suite I was given, with its vaulted ceiling and full kitchen area with sink, microwave, dishwasher and stand-up refrigerator--downright luxurious! The included breakfast every day was welcome--I especially enjoyed the plentiful fresh fruit bar. How often do you see fresh (not frozen) berries at a hotel breakfast bar? However, what started as minor annoyances became major gripes as the week went on. Some lights in the room didn't work, and a few switches appeared to be dummies, controlling nothing. The bathroom venting fan ran continuously and loudly, so much so that I had to keep the door shut. When I complained maintenance staff did come to look at it but afterward I still couldn't turn it off, though in fairness it did seem somewhat quieter--maybe it's not supposed to be switched off? Which leads me to the biggest complaint of all, the noise. I was assigned a room on the ground floor in a well trafficked corridor, adjacent to a door that led outside to the parking lot. Every time someone came in that door or entered or left one a nearby room I would hear a loud ”thunk!” as a heavy latch fell into place. I could actually feel the room wall shake every time this happened. If an establishment is going to install doors that swing shut so hard, the acoustic treatment of all the walls needs to be a lot better. By the end of the week I was desperate for some uninterrupted sleep, and couldn't even use the earplugs I had brought with me because housekeeping had thrown them away one morning. If I were ever to try this place again (not sure I will) I would make sure I got a room not on the ground floor and way off in a corner somewhere.

Hotel seemed more rundown than when I stayed there before the pandemic. Got there late at night (nearly 11 pm) and left early (by 7:30 am). Only interacted with one person at front desk. He did the bare minimum - checked me in & gave me a room key, but did not mention any hotel amenities. My booking was for a king bed but I was assigned a room with 2 double beds - no explanation was offered. After I got to my room, I found there were no vending machines on the 2nd floor. Guests have to go to the front desk pantry. It would have been helpful if I'd known that when I checked in. Also, the parking lot was full; I had to drive to a poorly lit area at the back, park there and then walk around the building in the dark to the front desk. Altogether, it was certainly not a typical Hilton experience!

We stayed in two rooms and were very disappointed at this hotel. We have stayed at many Courtyard/ Marriott properties and this one was one of, if not the poorest maintained. The reservation was made a month ahead of our stay and because of all the graduations (reason for our trip) the hotel charged exorbitant prices for poor facilities. They also had no compassion for our plight as we had to change our booked hotel because two months after making our reservation they went pet-friendly (all Hiltons) and I have severe allergies. The front desk person was very friendly and efficient-appreciated after a long day. The issue started with a minor annoyance- no floor readout in the elevator and progressed to filthy carpets and banged up walls and renovation equipment in the hall . The halls and elevators were also extremely HOT. Our rooms were not any better- nasty stains all over the carpet and sofa, mold and a missing tile in the bathroom. The grab rail in the shower was loose and the toilet was so low that a child would best fit it. No water pressure in the shower. The A/C was also extremely loud. I realize that many of these items will be taken care of during the renovation, however to charge $350/night for a room in this condition is criminal. To top it off, unlike most hotels in this and other chains, there was no included breakfast or courtesy bottled water for rewards members. Also, in the morning all the elevators were being used by the construction and cleaning people so we had to use the stairs to go out to get food. Word of warning if you are still considering staying here in the near future… the construction is a couple rooms at a time on a guest floor and they not only hog the elevator at check out time but noise starts at 9am so don’t think of sleeping in. Why aren’t they doing a floor at a time so they could leave their equipment out of the way and free up the elevators.
