10/10 Exceptional

It is a simple hotel. It’s very clean. There is free breakfast. I would stay there again. It’s is located in a spot where there are many restaurants, bars and shopping centers.

10/10 Exceptional

Would stay here again

Cute little hotel/ motel. Clean, comfortable and safe. Not a lot of options at the free breakfast - but it was free! It looked like it had been recently renovated, the decor looked new. We were in town to tour Fairfield University. This was a close, affordable accommodations option. If we end up at the university, this will definitely be our go-to choice when visiting!

10/10 Exceptional

Great customer service at the right time!

Had a post surgery stay with our son, which was an emergency. After travelling hours on a red eye flight, James at the front desk made our stay that much more enjoyable. He got us an accessible room, early check in, late check out and helped us out in countless other ways. This place is great if staying in Fairfield. We love The Circle and it's location and staff, and especially James! Top Notch!

Great one night stay

We stayed for one night while traveling up 95. Easy access for the highway, cute nautical decor. Clean, comfortable rooms. Check in staff was friendly and efficient.

Julia, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

I have stayed here several times over the past 2 years. The room was too hot and hard to control the temp.

Spacious room with very comfortable beds. Lots of nearby dining options.
Jennifer, 4-night trip

6/10 Good

Solid local hotel

Stayed overnight while visiting colleges in the area. Overall the room was good. One complaint is that the rooms were a little dark once the blinds are drawn. Three lamps help somewhat but celinging/overhead lights would be best.
Courtney, 1-night trip

First time we stay here and will be staying in the future, we have family in the area.

Nice and Clean

My son and I have stayed a few times at the Circle Hotel while looking at colleges. The staff is very friendly the rooms are pretty and very clean. Great experiences!
Elise, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The room was excellent but with staying for 2 nights, we needed more than 2 washcloths. Although we asked for extras at the front desk, they were never dropped off and with no phone in the room and returning late in the evening, we went without.
Jean, 2-night trip

Nice stay

Second time I've stayed here. It's very nice hotel nicely located.
Andrew, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Friendly staff, clean room and delicious breakfast. Was perfect for our family stay. Highly recommend!
Lucinda, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It's been a while

I visited here about 5 years ago and it's improved a lot since then, at least the rooms have. They're a lot more modern and feel clean. The TVs have Roku installed but you can still change the HDMI to input anything that you have with you. The beds are hard in my opinion. Bathrooms are pretty basic and ours had a chair for some extra assistance if needed in the shower.
Dwight, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Best dog-friendly option

Best option for traveling with dogs. Very reasonable pet fee and at the time of our stay allowed 2 dogs up to 50 lbs - which most hotels do not. Everything was very clean.

Jason, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Unpleasant experience

As a senior, given a second floor room was impossible since the hotel did not have an elevator. We then received a first floor room which reeked disinfectant. Bathroom was very small and the room lacked a dresser for clothes and the TV did not have cable.
