Old Greenwich, CT
price varies
Optimum Seasons: Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall
I was drawn to this hotel through www.tripadvisor.com (will find you the website that offers the cheapest rate) because of it's affordable price, great indoor poor, ecosystem lobby, and excellent breakfast (included in the price)! As well as being in Old Greenwich, a beautiful neighborhood within an hour drive from my home.
Kill a few birds with one stone: Greenwich, CT is the must see neighboring town. Very affluent with beautiful homes. Google "nicest neighborhoods or streets of Greenwich and head there for some house site seeing! Greenwich Avenue is a half mile stretch of high end shops and boutiques. There weren't many restaurants open on New Year's day when we went, nor clothing stores, but we still enjoyed our experience. The Saks Fifth Avenue here pales in comparison to that in NYC. Drive around the neighborhood of Belle Haven (a lot of streets are private so you won't have access unless you have balls to drive through. But there are many streets along the Long Island Sound that are worth seeing) which is a peninsula surrounded by water at the very southern tip of Greenwich Avenue. If there is a neighborhood to see in Greenwich, this is it! Skip the others! The lot sizes are too big to even see the homes! Also, for a sand beach, visit Greenwich Point Park (in Old Greenwich). This may or may not be a private beach so you should give them a call before you go, but I just drove by in the winter and it was beautiful!
