Very pretty inn with spacious rooms.
Everything was very comfortable but there was not a lot of service in the building. Couldn’t reach anyone from the room as they left a cell phone number that nobody answered. Our room was on the second floor so they provided someone to help with luggage but nobody to help when checking out.
In a very pretty area with cafe Flo across the street in a museum. Highly recommend for lunch. Overall we enjoyed our stay but would have appreciated a coffee maker in the room and either a mini fridge or at least ice on our level. Lots of walking up and down stairs but other than that, the location was close to many restaurants and the Essex dinner train.
The Inn hosted great jazz. The parking was very convenient. But, our room was absolutely terrible. The worst was the stained carpeting and rundown furniture. This place was not an exceptional, 9.2. Some of the rooms were supposedly acceptable but ours was the worst we've ever stayed in.
A wonderful stay. Two things to check, tho. Our A/C on room 11 rattled and made it hard to sleep. Also, bed was very creaky. Besides that, all lovely, all the time.
We came to celebrate our anniversary, ride the Essex Steam Train for dinner.
This was the perfect spot. We were in room 4 on the first floor, I have some physical issues and the first floor with a ramp to the entrance made it so I could actually help bring in our bags.
The room was very clean and comfortable. The fireplace was my favorite feature. From the pics you would think the shower was a tub shower, it was actually a big shower that had a 6-8 inch step over. We had very nice views when we were in the room. The chairs in the room were very uncomfortable but we didn’t spend much time in the room.
There is no coffee service in the rooms or in the lobby for early morning coffee.thats a bummer but Dunkin is a half mile away. I would place my order on my phone each evening and we ran for it early in the morning.
We did fine in the restaurant once for brunch and once in the evening for coffee and dessert. The food was good and so was the service.
There is a nice library/lounge that is very welcoming, lots of books, games, comfy seating.
This inn is charming, well located and has the fantastic Sidedoor Jazz club - we had a wonderful time here and the staff was beyond helpful!
A great place to stay in Old Lyme!
The Old Lyme Inn itself is a very nice property and the staff is exceptional. The staff is warm, welcoming and very helpful and informative about events and the local area.
Parking easy. Staff helpful. Did not have breakfast there. Rooms small. No staff on duty overnight. No phones in room. No TVs on premises. Pricey for what you get.
The town of Old Lyme is charming, and this lovely inn is perfectly situated, right across from the Florence Griswold Museum, right off the I95 for easy exploring, and very quiet and peaceful.
Very beautiful place. The staff are extremely friendly and accommodating. The restaurant located at the Old Lyme Inn was excellent and the Jazz Club is a must.
