Simsbury 1820 House — Hotel in Simsbury

The Simsbury 1820 House is a charming inn located right on the main thoroughfare of Simsbury, CT, a lovely, historic town. The inn location made it very convenient for our family and members of the bridal party to stay here for an August 2024 wedding. Set up and back on the lovely property, the inn even was very quiet for all our activities, including a rehearsal dinner and day-after-wedding brunch in the fabulous Soma Grille, which has a location right inside the inn! The inn is part of a three-property business, and there is a terrific event coordinator for the trio of inns who helps in making everything happen if you are planning a special event.The 1820 House worked just right for some of our family wedding events and accommodations, and we are so glad that it did! Each member of the staff was incredibly gracious, friendly, and helpful. We loved being greeted each time we left and returned because of wedding-related activities. Having coffee/tea. etc and some light breakfast foods in the parlor was so convenient and relaxing. The outdoor porch was a great place to "hang' before, in between, and after wedding festivities. Our rooms were very comfortable and, like the rest of the inn, have a terrific historic feel. We must get ourselves one of those stunning floor-to-ceiling mirrors! We can't wait to return! Do consider staying at the Simsbury 1820 House, and let couples, their families, and their friends know this could be a wonderful setting for their wedding and/or wedding-related events! It's a wonderful place to stay for ANY...

I checked in 5/22/2023 at 9:40pm. I arrived late. I travel to location to location for a livinig. I called ahead to let the front desk know I would be arriving late. I also called to make sure my company had advised 1)I am handicapped I walk with a cane and 2) I am allergic to animal dander, so the pet friendly rooms need to be segregated from the others. The pet friendly rooms were in fact segregated but this is NOT a handicap friendly hotel. The handicapped entrance was not visible at night. They did provide me with a shower chair (A+ for that) but it had to be jammed into the average size bath tub. It was stable in the tub, but it was not safe. They do have rooms that have walk in showers, but not on the 1st floor. There is no elevator. There were no grab bars ANYWHERE in the bathroom. The bed was atleast a full 2ft . off the floor. Had it not been so late at night I would have called my company and told them I needed a new hotel. I prefer the Simsbury Inn and usually stay there when working in CT. I requrested a 4:30 wake up call. I did not get it. Fortunatly I learned YEARS ago you can no longer count on hotels ACTUALLY providing this service to for you. When checking out I made it known that I did not get my wake up call. The gentlemen at the front desk then told me it was a new system (weeks or a month old) so it was probably a failure in the new system. I don't know why that was a good answer. Overall, not a good hotel for anyone who is handicapped or travel...

I don’t usually post reviews on Google but I wanted to share what a great experience we had here for Valentines Day Weekend. I’ll we had a King size room on the third floor which was really more like a suite, very spacious room. Everything in the room was to character as advertised, it has a very old fashioned vintage style, while being renovated in the places it needs to be (like the bathroom). Also, there’s a pretty impressive huge vintage mirror in the room that I wasn’t expecting but was a great touch. I haven’t seen how the other rooms look but I can tell you that the King size room on the third floor is a good bet. I got the Valentines Day package which included champagne and chocolates. I wanted to add some flowers to that so I arranged a delivery the day before and the staff was great about being in touch with me to have the flowers set up in the room on time. On the main floor, you have a room with a fireplace and coffee/tea available. This is also where you’d pick up your continental breakfast which included bagels, danishes, cold cereal, etc. Overall it was really great experience and I’d definitely come back a second time. Also I should mention that the room rate was very reasonable, so you feel like you’re getting your...
