What Guests Are Saying
“Was a nice place to stop! They even have a shuttle to get to casino which saved money on a uber on the weekend! The hot tub is super cool as well because it has a waterfall” — alissa, 5 stars
“My daughter & I stayed here as she had an early start for a tournament at Mohegan sun. Price was SIGNIFICANTLY cheaper than Mohegan and the hotel is only about 10 minutes drive from the casino. They also have a shuttle which was running even late at night that we did not use. Check in (after 11pm) was super easy. Our room was spacious, clean and comfortable beds. Bathroom nice and clean with built in amenities (shampoos, conditioner, body wash). They give a shower cap to use as well, which was super convenient. Air conditioning unit had a “fan” mode which worked well for our white noise requirements. Ice machine was right by elevators and worked! They have a gorgeous pool which is even long enough to do laps (sort of oddly long and narrow) and a lovely hot tub we didn’t get to use, as well as a small fitness center. Breakfast was very good - scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, make your own waffle with all kinds of toppings (including chocolate chips), toast, bagels, muffins, oranges, bananas, yogurt, cereal and hot oatmeal. Really something fo everyone. We would absolutely stay here again in heartbeat, right off the highway, easy access to the casino and great amenities.” — jackie S., 5 stars
“Not sure if my original review was published so I’m writing another. I chose this Hampton Inn based on my experience staying there 2-3 years ago and was not disappointed. This is one of the better Hampton Inns. The location just off I-395 makes it easy to get to nearby attractions. The hotel was spotless in all respects. The customer service was excellent, and I interacted with several desk clerks. The pool area is quite large, surprising for a Hampton Inn. The hot tub was properly hot and well maintained. It seems the pool was designed for those who want to swim laps. There was the occasional time where a family used the pool but we had it to ourselves most of the time. I can’t speak to how noisy it gets when families are crowding it. The breakfast was good last time but it was even better on this trip. Breakfast was an egg dish, potatoes, a meat, oatmeal, cereals, pastries, and waffles. An enhancement to the last visit was that they had the machine that makes mini-waffles as well as the big ones. There was a flavored mix as well as a plain mix every day. It seemed there are many dining options within a short drive (I ate at my sister’s so I didn’t hit any of the local places). There’s a WalMart and a Big Y grocery quite close as well. The only downside to this hotel is that there’s no guest laundry. Even-numbered rooms face the cemetery and are quiet. Odd-numbered rooms face the highway and can be noisy.” — Jody C., 5 stars

View on Google"I stayed at this location the weekend of 5DEC-7DEC25, coaching at Mohegan Sun for an AAU Volleyball tournament. We were given paper paychecks that weekend by our club and I had placed mine on the nightstand with my wallet and somehow didn't grab it as I left really early Sunday morning. Didn't realize until I was on my way back home to Western Mass. I called and spoke with someone at the front desk (I wish I could remember her name!), who told me she would check with housecleaning and get back to me. Within 20-30 minutes she called back to say housecleaning had already found it and had turned it in to their manager, who had given it to her, and that she would be mailing it to me the next day. Just wanted to express my appreciation to everyone involved in this for their honesty, integrity and great values for doing the right thing in this situation. This says a LOT about the people who are hired and work for the Hampton Inn at Norwich. I will be using them again for sure in the future! THANK YOU!"
