- Good location, polite staff and efficient service.
- Full of unruly high school students making a ton of noise in the lobby area.
“I would really recommend this hotel. For someone visiting Yale for the first time it was very conveniently located. I was able to walk all over the place. The staff were polite and the hotel was an overall good experience.”

- The hotel staff was amazing, great price for what we received. I was happy.
- We had to pay $19 for parking per day to park in the hotel parking!
“I enjoyed our stay here, but because of paid parking, I am not sure this would be my first choice for next time. Overall, very clean and attentive staff.”

- It was clean. One person at the front desk was friendly and helpful.
- Ridiculously small rooms for the price.
“The rooms were beyond small, and I found the staff to be unaccommodating. The hotel did not have hot water for an entire morning and did nothing to accommodate myself or the people I was with. We were there for my sister's wedding and the entire bridal party had to take uncomfortably cold showers, including the bride. They ran out of the food they offer on their late night menu. The service staff for our private breakfast had poor attitudes and were unwilling to meet our requests-my table asked for soda. I couldn't believe this is a 4 star hotel. I've had better experiences at some motels.”

- Clean, friendly staff, good gym, comfortable beds.
- WiFi was not working.
“Everything was fine. The first room we were given had a smoky odor, but they quickly and cheerfully changed our room. The gym was good, bath/shower was pleasant, and bed was very comfortable. Only problem was that we signed up for Wifi and it wasn't working well -so slow it was useless. They were very apologetic.”

- Bedroom & bathroom were clean, linens crisp, colors not garish.
- The long wait for the elevator from the garage to the hotel upon our arrival.
“The hotel was nice, clean and the people were pleasant. On the down side, there was a fire in the hotel restaurant early Friday morning and we had to leave our rooms at 1:30 am and couldn't return until 4:00 am. Management did their best, under the circumstances, to offer water, blankets, coffee and tea to the displaced occupants but there weren't enough blankets to go around because management was barred from re-entering the hotel. I would stay at this hotel again even after the fire experience.”

- Friendly, helpful staff. Great location. Close to restaurants.
- The bathroom could have better lighting.
“We are so glad we chose the Omni. Comfortable clean room, I never felt I had to worry about what my kids were touching! We asked for a view and the view of New Haven was terrific. The view from the restaurant on the top floor is said to be the best in town. We do not have a lot of demands as travelers, but everything felt easy and low key there. All I would ask for is better lighting in the bathroom. If I would been putting on make up for an event or wedding I would have been annoyed. But overall, a real pleasure to stay and I hope to stay again.”

“Although in an excellent location, this hotel is in need of an update, and should not be listed as a 4 star property. Rooms were small, furniture has seen better days out of date and damaged, and access to parking garage is comical or unacceptable if you are handicap or elderly.”

“This hotel is in a great location. Convenient to all of downtown New Haven nd Yale. The decor and style is very nice and up to date. The only problem we encountered was the lack of soundproofing in the rooms. We could hear things above us, below us, next to us. It was difficult to sleep well. Every time someone flushed a toilet we could hear the water running through the pipes.”

- Arguably the most uncomfortable bed in the world, at any price point.
“I have stayed here many times. It is very well located. Dining is very good, not amazing, but consistent. Major detractor is the unbearably uncomfortable beds. Pure misery. I think the omni should take a cue from the Westin and focus on the quality and comfort of sleep surfaces! Everything else is fine, well kept in this elegant, if not getting a tad bit worn, hotel.”

“This is a comfortable, well situated hotel in Downtown New Haven. The rooms are comfortable, clean, with all the amenities. My only problem with the hotel was the wireless internet connection in the room. The signal was so low that I could only have access to the internet for 1 minute or so at a time. When I called to ask about this, they said they could send something to my room to increase the signal, of course at a charge.”

“I was really disappointed in this hotel. The room was on the smallish side and the toilet lid would not stay up by itself, since it was up against the vanity area. The hotel overall is beautiful, but the thermostat in my room did not work properly, and the maintenance man was not able to fix it, so he recommended opening a window. The hotel was booked solid, so I couldn't even get another room.”

- The room was beautiful and clean, and the staff was helpful.
- Parking was expensive, even by hotel standards.
“A nice hotel in an area without a widespread selection. It was conveniently located, clean, and very attractive. Staff was helpful and courteous. The price was about what you would expect...not a great value but adequate. The only downsides were that it is located in a busy (and very loud) part of the city, so on a weekend expect to hear outside partygoers very late into the night, and the parking was expensive and a bit inconvenient, mainly due to the fact that the hotel doesn't own the garage, the city/state government does, and they have it open to the public so you have to fight non-hotel guests for parking spaces. Still, in an area with limited selection, the rooms, staff, and amenities are all very nice and one could do far worse as far as quality is concerned, so with these caveats in mind I recommend it.”

- Beds - superb. Decor - Superb.
- Dining chairs so bad that they hand out pillows! Burnt toast. No safety bars in shower.
“This hotel is beautiful. Convenient to everything. Surrounded by great restaurants. Friendly and interesting staff. But if you are elderly, fat or clumsy, you are apt to get injured or killed in their bathtubs. Their shower can burn you to a crisp and there are zero safety measures for getting in and out of the tub or shower. I talked to several people but they think that any safety measures are strictly for ADA people. I said businessmen who are fifty with a pot belly and drink 2 cocktails do not see themselves as disabled! Their dining room chairs have zero padding and you can feel the webbing and slip the disc in your back. The chairs should have been returned the day they got them! I was given 2 pillows, and I used one. My partner looked like a midget in his chair and the table came up to his collar bone! The toast was really burnt! They even forgot the juice! The view was great but who cares. [We didn't remind them.]”
