Located near ESPN headquarters and ESPN Plaza, the property unveils a stylish new design concept featuring modern amenities to meet the needs of every guest.

The newly renovated lobby highlights custom artwork, while the hotel’s 141 guest rooms are enhanced by contemporary upgrades. In addition, a new five-storey, 19-suite tower offers a separate, more private entrance for guests.

Six suites of the property feature California King beds suited to athletes, and a high-tech, 2,000 square foot Presidential Suite for luxurious amenities, including a 64-inch HDTV, a dining table for eight with a full kitchen, a theatre and a guest bath equipped with a 60-inch TV-mirror, a whirlpool tub, an iPad-controlled energy management system, and a $200,000 security system to accommodate any possible security needs of guests.

The property, which marks the third DoubleTree by Hilton in Connecticut, features the Willows restaurant, Time Out sports bar, and two new dining venues.

The hotel also features more than 7,000 square feet of flexible meeting space, an indoor heated swimming pool, 24-hour fitness centre, 24-hour business centre and complimentary WiFi Internet access for all guests throughout the hotel.

Formerly a Clarion hotel, the property is owned by Bristol Hotel and managed by Prestige Hospitality Group. The property is accessible to Bradley International Airport and convenient to nearby businesses and corporations, as well as downtown Hartford, Connecticut Convention Center and the Hartford XL Center. The renovation project lasted for 13-months.
