Extremely clean hotel, updated facilities, directly across the street from a hospital. Parking is a bit steep but I understand why given the location. It’s a really nice hotel and I had a very nice stay. One suggestion would be for the hotel to have hot water available. The Keurigs in room don’t make plain hot water and every time I asked it seemed like a big inconvenience for the staff. Don’t understand why there wasn’t a simple carafe for people so we could help ourselves and avoid bothering the staff. I will say it also seemed like not enough people were working here. Everyone was lovely but there were too few people. Otherwise, a perfect experience.

Clean stay, easy parking, and just a few let-downs

It was excellent, very clean, comfortable, etc. The only two downsides were: 1) we asked to have the room serviced while we were out for a few hours, and it was not serviced during that window, which complicated our getting ready for a wedding, 2) there was a lot of street noise and early in the morning when we were attempting to sleep in the housekeeping staff played music in other rooms very loudly. Parking was very easy and we appreciated and early check-in! Generally would stay again!

Nice find in New Haven.

The Cambria Hotel New Haven is a great hotel. I loved the contemporary decor. It's a relatively new hotel of only a few years old. Some of the finishes in the room were worn out. The front desk personnel were very professional, friendly, and helpful. The wait staff in the lobby restaurant was efficient but not overly welcoming or friendly. I'd say it's great value for the money. I'd stay there again. It's walkable from the entertainment area and the campus of Yale and Yale New Haven Hospital. I might feel a little unsafe later in the night. But, I walked from the hotel easily to Union Station and all areas in downtown.
