View Rooms

The Tapestry brand from Hilton prides itself on unique, locally inspired decor, and the Lloyd Stamford is no exception. Think boutique New England vibe, but with the reliability of Hilton. The Lloyd Stamford is named for local prominent businessman and shipping magnate John Lloyd who made his mark during the 1700s. While the hotel nods to these historic influences, be sure that this Stamford hotel is dripping in modern touches. Each room is decked out in minimalist West Elm furniture to ensure you sleep in style. And for breakfast, a curated menu offers a selection of yummy quiches, or perhaps you’d prefer toast topped with cookie butter? (Pro tip: get both.)

If travel brings you to Stamford’s Ridgeway-Bulls Head neighborhood, you’ll want to spend the night at the Holiday Inn Express and Suites Stamford. Rooms are bright and cheerful and feature mini-fridges and microwaves. If you prefer a full kitchen, upgrade to the executive suite (you deserve it). Proximity to green space like Scalzi Park means you won’t miss your morning jog, but if the weather doesn’t cooperate, there’s an indoor pool to get your laps in any time of year. The location is only 1mi (1.6km) north of the shopping and dining of Downtown Stamford, but if you don’t want to move the car, the hotel also offers a complimentary shuttle to Harbor Point or Downtown Stamford.

This boutique hotel has everything the techie traveler could wish for, and so much more besides. Every spacious room comes with 55-inch TVs, uber-comfy pillow-top mattresses and turndown service each night. In the bathrooms, you’ll find another Mirror TV, plus a Japanese-style toilet (with all the bells and whistles you’d expect in a plush Tokyo pad). This Stamford hotel is only 10 minutes’ drive from Downtown, but you may never want to leave, as the hydrafacials, outdoor pool with private pavilions, and sushi menu at Tony’s will tempt you to stay at the J House.
