Re: I need Some Info About Connecticut
the Delamar hotel in Greenwich
great hotel, excellent restaurant and local shopping on greenwich ave
my company owns part of this hotel and we get corporate rates- nothing cheap but we can get rooms for about $195 a night (instead of $250 +)

Re: I need Some Info About Connecticut
I stayed at The Saybrook Inn , in well Saybrook, CT
http://www.saybrook.com/
nice town, near everything
I went in the summer
It is bigger than a B&B or "cozy" hotel but still very nice, they have suites avail too and nice spa
I don't know if you are looking for something a bit quainter - but you can give it a shot!

Re: I need Some Info About Connecticut
Copper Beech Inn in Ivoryton. It supposed to be really nice, and the restaurant at the Inn has been voted best restaurant, best romantic dinner, etc by Connecticut Magazine. I haven't been there, but it looks very nice and romantic.
Copper Beech Inn
Bee and Thistle Inn in Old Saybrook received similar awards in CT Magazine.
Bee & Thistle Inn
ETA: I forgot about the Mayflower Inn & Spa in Washington.

yes! its not AMAZING but its certaily fun for a few hours. the shopping on greenwich ave is great - not sure if you are going during the summer but the hotel provides a little boat ride to the greenwich private island where you can go to a private beach
however it may be too "close" of a palce- greeneich is only a 35 minute train ride to nyc so you may want to go farther north
there is also an amazing place called the mayflower- they have a spa packages
and its much farther north

Re: I need Some Info About Connecticut
Steamboat inn in Mystic on the water. Very Romantic and in the heart of Mystic. Look on their website -
steam boat inn
Click Special Packages
Click on the Mystic Experience.
Danielle and I and our friends have gone to this inn twice in 2 years and we love it there.
They give you complimentary breakfast, and with this speacial package you get a free bottle of wine, tickets for two to either the seaport or the aquariam, and dinner for two at a choice of 3 restaurants. Daniel Packer inn is where we usually eat - its amazing.
look on trip advisor and read the reviews - they are all excellent
