Spacious room, nicely equipped. Conveniently located basically across the street from hole in the wall beach with the accompanying access point to the board walk. Walking distance to the many neighborhood eateries off of Main Street a plus. This suited our needs very well. Friendly staff. We stayed only one night but would certainly stay again.

The room was very spacious, clean, comfortable and the kitchenette was helpful. The beach is a very short walk and the front office had passes to purchase there for a better deal than down at the boardwalk. It’s a very short walk to shops and restaurants as well. Staff was very kind and understanding with us traveling with our son with special needs as well.

Loved everything about our stay at the Niantic Inn and wish we had more time to stay. The area is gorgeous and very homey feeling. The Inn is well kept, the room was very spacious and cozy. Walkable places to eat all around and the beach is a short walk across the street. If we are in the area again this will be our go to.

Room was clean and ready for our early arrival. They have everything for your beach stay for a fee carts, chairs and umbrellas. The beach pass was an extra fee but it’s semi private not so crowded. The staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. Plenty of parking.
