Comfy, clean rooms! Great place to recharge!

My husband and I stayed at the Niantic Inn for 2 nights as a little getaway while our 3 year old stayed with her grandparents. While the inn does offer many amenities, it was very clean, comfortable, and the perfect place to recharge! The smartTV was a great addition as we were able to catch up on our shows on various streaming services! It was also great to be fairly close to Mystic! 10/10 would recommend the Niantic Inn!

A favorite!!

The rooms are so spacious and are equipped with everything you could need. I appreciate the extra floor space, the microwave, the refrigerator, and the storage. Having a little table to work or eat at is such a plus. My favorite part is the little gift bag, and the tray left on the bed for when you arrive

The Inn was a quaint, quiet, comfy place to stay. My husband and I have been visiting our son almost every weekend for the USCGA football games and this our first stay at Niantic Inn. Next year we will try to stay here the majority of games.

A family owned Inn with fabulous homey touches from a small "welcome" bag upon check-in to a charming tray of fresh flowers and goodies in our spacious room. Small details like ice bucket with wine glasses and a white noise machine accompanied by sleepmasks and earplugs made for a perfect stay. The room had a nice beachy feel and was very comfortable with a table and chairs for dining in. The best part was the wonderfully cheerful and accomodating Marianne in the front office who made our stay perfect! Come experience true hospitality at this lovely property.

Had a great stay at the new Niantic Inn - the room was spacious and clean. The Inn is walking distance to many restaurants, shops, and the beach. The staff was very friendly (I got a goodie bag and they even offered to mail my friend her earring that she left behind). Would definitely recommend staying here!

Niantic at its best

The room was a very nice size and well layed out. It had a partial kitchen with a full size fridge. The place is clean and well cared for. It was nice having the Niantic boardwalk basically across the street. We enjoyed walking down the street and checking out all the stores and shops right outside the front door.
