Courtyard by Marriott New Haven Wallingford

"My family and I used Courtyard by Marriot New Haven Wallingford for my wedding block. This was THE BEST decision we could have made. My mother worked closely with Michelle on all the details, and it was a pleasure. They had no problem handing out welcome bags to our guests. They purposely put the wedding guests together. They also purposely put the bride (myself) and groom on another floor - THANK YOU. ;) The bar and bistro area was cozy. The food and drinks were delicious. We had a morning after brunch, and it was incredible. The food was delicious, there was plenty, they accommodated dietary restrictions, and made it SO easy for us to enjoy and not stress. The hotel is newly renovated and the rooms are comfortable. My (now) husband and I stayed a few days, and really enjoyed calling this "home base" (we live in WI now, so we needed a place close to the venue while we were in town for the wedding). All our guests loved their stay here, too. We heard only good things about the hotel and the staff. I highly recommend this hotel for vacation, business, your wedding, or anything. It was one of the best hotels I have ever stayed in, and a steal of a value."

"I almost always stay at Marriott hotels. The hotel was OK but not at the usual Marriott level. Our toilet wouldn't flush and we had to call for a plunger right after arriving. We were told it is a common problem when it rains. The lobby restroom also had difficulty flushing due to "Low Flow" flushing toilets. There was no buffet breakfast - only expensive food to order individually. There was an outstanding fitness room with top of the line equipment. The front desk people were outstanding. Rooms are not serviced unless you request it - so we did not have fresh towels or emptied trash cans. Our stay was OK - but I would stay somewhere else next time."

"We chose this hotel as our wedding hotel, we got a room block here and got a king suite for the night. We called room service when we got back hoping for some waters and they told us we’d have to come down. To be honest we were surprised that there wasn’t already water in our room as they knew it was our wedding night! Very strange. Just would’ve expected some better hospitality. The rooms are nice as are the indoor renovations. I’m sure the outdoor ones will be nice once finished…"

"We used this hotel for their room blocks prices for our wedding. The location was convenient, being only about 15/20 minutes away from the venue, but there were some things that we thought we would have available to us that we didn't. These include transportation to the venue as we were told there was some but then found out there wasn't, and a space for breakfast the next morning that did not include paying so much out of pocket. However we did greatly appreciate the fact that we did not have to pay for rooms that were not taken by the guests at our wedding. We saved over 20 rooms and only a few were taken, so we would have had to pay for a lot of rooms. Overall, it was still a nice experience, and a great price!"

"In area for softball tournament. Under construction. Rooms were nice and clean. No pool, they filled it in. No free breakfast. "fitness room" the size of a walk-in closet. Really not much offered at hotel. Never heard from housekeeping for our 2 night stay. Extremely overpriced for the area and what the hotel offers."
