I am learning to stay away from Hotel Chains that are common to me more and more and I am sure glad I did this time too. What a beautiful little place right on the marina and their sunset...so quiet and peaceful. Rooms were perfect, bathroom absolutely clean...loved the kitchen, spotless....In all, my main reason for writing this was to... More

Well the staff was friendly. The rooms left much to be desired at the price we paid. The hot water was there sometimes. The room was clean. Curtains to keep out the morning light and outside lights would be nice, sheers don't cut it! I guess you could call it quaint? It needs a lot of work, but it could... More

The room we get was convenient and perfect for your needs. We really appreciated the confort of the bed and the kitchenette. We made our meals there and we also appreciated to have access to the laundry. The room is air conditionned. But the best thing there is the beautiful view on the Thames river, the sunset are just great.... More

I was lucky enough to stay at the Thames Inn and Marina while on a trip to see the Miss Connecticut 2010 Pageant. I am Miss Maine 2009 and was asked to perform at the Miss CT pageant so naturally I was looking for a place to stay but because there were multiple events going on, many hotels were booked... More

Well, I must say what a shock! What a difference! This coming from someone who has been going for years - five, and always on this very weekend and kept going because of the Inn's location. What a turnaround! And we have some horror stories we could share. We were so impressed with the professional way the Inn is being... More

This is no chain hotel,, this is down on the docks with the locals . On the Thames river in Groton this hotel is like sleeping on a boat without getting sea sick. Working fishing boats share the parking lot and if you want to charter a fishing trip you can step out of your bed onto the boat. The... More

Decided to travel to Mystic, CT for the weekend last minute. Everything in Mystic was booked. We got a room through a dot com company for booking hotels. The agent discovered this "great" hotel just outside Mystic in Groton, CT. We were told this was a three star hotel - price - $149/night. We decided to take it as it... More

There's a new Sheriff in Town! Thames Inn & Marina is now being managed by me, "Debra," the same manager that brought Rocky Neck Inn & Suites to # in Niantic on tripadisor.com (as of May 7th, 2010) I worked hard at RNIS, and I'm now working hard here to earn back your trust here at Thames Inn & Marina!...

What an awesome day Sailfest was! The hotel needs work but the manager is a doll! Fireworks were great and the food was too! Will definitely be back next year!
