Candlewood Suites Hartford Downtown by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean and well kept."

Best Western Hartford Hotel & Suites

8/10 Good

"This is an older motel.... room was clean and well stocked. Our room was at the end of a hallway and a convenient entry door at the back of the building. Parking was plentiful and with handicapped tag, as we were right next to the door. I am glad on my reservation I made a comment that we preferred a ground level room if there is no elevator. Inside this back entry door was a set of stairs going to the second level.... very hard to lug suitcases etc. up steps for seniors. Breakfast area is pleasant and a variety of hot sausage and eggs and bagels, muffins, etc Something I had never seen before was premade French toast....heat up in the toaster and enjoy with butter/syrup. A variety of juices and coffee available. My husband went down there one morning and found none of the containers were being refilled and it wasn't that late. This stayed open until 10 am which is later than most other motel/hotel breakfast areas."
