I had a great stay at the Courtyard in Waterbury. As a single dad traveling with my daughter, I…read morereally appreciated how supportive & attentive the front desk manager, Carlin, was. She made sure our check-in was smooth & got us to our room quickly & without hassle. Her professionalism & kindness really stood out. The hotel itself was very clean, & all of the staff--including the housekeeping team--were friendly & helpful throughout our stay. The room was immaculate, & I felt comfortable & well taken care of. My only real issue was the lack of microwaves in the rooms. It was inconvenient having to go downstairs & wait in line just to heat up food. That's definitely something the hotel should reconsider. Also, I noticed Carlin often seemed to be managing the front desk alone--even during busy periods. I'm not sure why she doesn't have more staff support, but she handled everything with patience & grace, even when there were 10-15 people waiting. She deserves recognition & backup. I did notice the hotel seems to attract a mixed crowd, possibly due to the price point, but that shouldn't reflect on the hotel itself. As long as you're there to rest & relax, the experience is more than sufficient. Overall, I'd absolutely stay here again. I'm not sure why this hotel has low ratings--my experience was excellent. Highly recommend.

The location of the Courtyard Waterbury Downtown is easily its best asset. Sitting right at the…read moreintersection of Grand and S Main Street, it's super convenient to both I-84 and Route 8. Unfortunately, the rest of our stay was pretty frustrating. For starters, watch out for the parking. I was under the impression that parking in the adjacent garage was complimentary for guests, but I only found out after checking out that they charge $15 a day. To make matters worse, the elevator inside the garage was out of service, with an old sign posted that looked like it had been sitting there for months. As a Marriott Gold Elite member, I booked our room through the Bonvoy app and attempted to check in beforehand, but the system wouldn't let us. I also requested a mobile key, but those weren't available either because the hotel was apparently in the middle of a system upgrade. When we arrived, our reservation had somehow assigned us an accessible room, which temporarily locked us out of the other available options. Thankfully, the front desk staff was very friendly and helpful in getting the reservation sorted out. The lobby itself was clean and well-kept. Once we got up to our room on the ninth floor, things went downhill. The room had a terrible, musty smell. It clearly used to be a room where smokers stayed--that heavy tobacco stench had completely saturated the carpet and walls, and no amount of cleaning spray could hide it. The windows were filthy, and the entry door looked like someone had previously tried to pry it open with a crowbar. The worst part of the night was the air conditioner. It's an ancient unit that rattled and sounded like a diesel truck engine every time it kicked on. Between the smell and the noise, it kept us up for most of the night. It's a great location, but given the state of the room and the garage situation, I wouldn't stay here again.

Connecticut Magazine named Belden House a best new restaurant. They've had a lot of buzz on social…read moremedia. My wife and I made reservations for our recent Litchfield area overnight. The restaurant is part of a hotel operated on an updated estate. The restaurant is located in a beautiful classic white house. The bar has stunning emerald wall coloring adjacent to a glass window. The main dining room is lovely. Top grades for atmosphere. They even have a Michelin Star for the Hotel. Other than our server having a temporary memory lapse about the flavor profile of sorrel , service was pretty much perfect. Friendly. Helpful. Efficient. For example, our server was able, at our request, to serve Belden House's famous chocolate chip cookies even though they weren't on the dinner menu. They were delicious. The food ranged from good to very good. My wife and I split (1) sourdough focaccia and cultured butter; (2) shrimp with fennel in a sorrel sauce, (3) pappardelle with pork shoulder; (4) green garlic linguine with clams, preserved lemon and sake; and (5) Short Rib with persimmons and sunchokes. The bread was very good. The shrimp had good texture and that dish was cool visually. I was a fan of both pasta dishes. They both had a nice acidity, which you don't always see with pasta dishes. The shredded pork was tasty. The short rib wasn't a highlight for me, but it was good. It had a firmer texture than I'm used to. The persimmons brought a cool shape and color, but I didn't love the flavor with the short rib. We had a great experience. I recommend Belden House for an upscale night. 4.5 Stars
