Foxwoods Tacos & Tequila Festival - 06-23-2026…read more Wanted to write a review - Overall, the event had good atmosphere with a fun crowd engagement, good music, and a good variety of drink options. The food was also a highlight, especially the chicken tacos, Cubano, and beef rice bowl. The main drawback was the long wait for food, which took nearly an hour and a half due to limited food stations and line management issues. For future events, adding multiple food locations throughout the venue and starting later in the afternoon or early evening would improve the experience.

It was nice and clean in our room. The elevators don't let just anyone go up to any floor; you have to scan your room card to get it off the lobby floor so that was nice. Walls are thin for noise like with any hotel I'd think. Bed wasn't the best for comfort. It is obviously convenient for the gambling though seeing as your elevator lets you off right into the casino floor.

If you look up The Fox Tower's page on foxwoods.com, you're greeted with a rather intriguing…read morewelcome message. I'd like to highlight the first sentence in particular, if I may: "The Fox Tower offers a modern hotel experience." Modern, huh? It's funny to me because one of the first things we noticed after getting settled into our room was the TV. See, it was immovable - which in of itself isn't all that unusual. But it DOES immediately torpedo any hope of accessing something like, say....an HDMI port for guests to plug-in their iPad, laptop, or whatever to stream from. Speaking of streaming, it's totally impossible to do from these "modern" TVs. Because....they're not Smart TVs. Flat screens? Yes. WiFi ready? Not a chance in hell. Granted, my lament can be aptly filed under "First World Problems". But in 2026, ya gotta admit this is a pretty silly setback. It seems we also apparently got one of the few rooms with a non-functional desk lamp. That's assuming, of course, all the rooms don't suffer from this same issue. Not only were both outlets completely inoperable, the switch to turn on said lamp was missing. I guess the ostensible hole where the button USED to be should have been a warning sign, but....that's what I get for being slightly optimistic. I'd have swapped rooms if we were staying longer than a couple nights. Apart from those two anomalies, the room itself was fine. A bit overpriced due to the holiday weekend? Sure. But considering this IS a resort after all, I can just be grateful we're in Mashantucket and not Las Vegas. Now, for those unfamiliar with the Foxwoods lore, it's technically 3 hotels in one; two towers and a third dormitory known as "Great Cedar Hotel". This becomes apparent the minute you attempt to check into the wrong desk by accident like we did. So, bit of advice: whichever residence you book under, proceed to THAT respective lobby for check in. In hindsight, it seems so obvious. But at the time, we figured they were digitally interconnected. Based on that inventory, combined with the pricing options that populated from lowest to highest, we can safely assume The Fox Tower is the LEAST luxurious of the 3 contenders. That is to say, there are still aspects of luxury sprinkled throughout TFT. But the gaps become more noticeable as you glance at things like.. The In-Room Dining Menu: This one varies tremendously between TFT vs the other two choices. Whilst the former gets an abbreviated edition of Junior's Coffee Bakery's menu, the latter gets a 4 page, full course menu with far more enticing options. The In-house Restaurants: Nearly every fine dining or even remotely fancy restaurant required us to invariably leave TFT and walk all the way to the opposite side of the resort on the Great Cedar side. Not that we don't appreciate a good stroll every now and then. But this is something folks should know prior to booking. The Rooms themselves: Going off the site photos alone, it seems that maybe, just MAYBE....the latter two hotels probably have movable Smart TVs. Didn't realize the privilege of streaming your OWN subscriptions costs extra but...here we are. Oh, btw - their check-out process was plagued with technical difficulties. Ya know how almost every hotel allows you to check out digitally so you can just drop the keys off in the outbox (or better yet, leave them in the room as you exit)? Yeah, no. TFT epically fumbled this one because that email they sent me.....was broken. As in, I clicked the button (multiple times, mind you), only to be greeted by a blank page. Which meant we had to check-out the regular way. How do you #@$! up something as basic as check-out? Don't know! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ It's not like our stay was bad, per se. But when it comes to ranking a resort that's clearly trying to be the Vegas away from Vegas, such consideration goes into my rating. That said, the biggest positives were the check-IN process, the staff, valet service, the extra layer of guest room security, and that huge ass bathroom. Plus, I must admit those dual shower heads were quite nice. Ultimately, we'll return to Foxwoods one day. Just not TFT. Far as luxury towers go, this one's pretty mid. If I'm gonna be paying millionaire prices, I may as well aim for the stars next time around. The Fox Tower is worth 3 spacious showers with dual heads out of 5.

They recently put in new carpets and jazzed it up a bit. There is a great bar area towards the back too. They have a great mix of old and new machines. The machines pay out the same as the rest of the rooms but this room seems to be more lively - which it use to be that this room was always the quiet and not very busy one. The location is great for us since we always stay at the hotel above. The drink people don't come around even 1/2 as much as they use to for free drinks except for in the morning when they are giving out free cheap coffee.

They refuse to acknowledge your patrons and when they do "what do you want" is unprofessional/uninviting and a little degrading.

Their job is to please your guests, not to act as figures of authority.

Just got back, had a nice time with my family. Very fun for my son, he was exhausted each night…read moreafter going on all the slides all day with us. Didn't try any of the food as we ate locally at the Fox Woods casino, we also parked there for free as opposed to paying the $25 a night parking fee at Great Wolf. Everything was fairly clean and organized. The employees were very nice and accommodating. Prices are a bit high for everything. No free breakfast or anything like that. The only two negatives which aren't really the fault of the venue are: Literally after riding our first ride, some random guy started yelling at my son and I because I guess we didn't hand off the water tube quickly enough to the next person? I kept my cool as I didn't want to curse or flip out around children, but this guy was unhinged and very out of line. A real creep. We didn't even know you were supposed to hand off the tube when getting out, as it was our first ride. There was no workers around at this point. The only other minor gripe was the neighboring room was very loud, they were screaming at one another late into the night. We had fun, and would go back. Very good overall.

What exactly is going on with Great Wolf Lodge's billing practices?…read more We went expecting to enjoy a family getaway, not walk away questioning charges on our account. We were OVERCHARGED, and after looking into the situation, I'm honestly shocked by how many other people appear to be reporting similar experiences. And here's what makes this even more frustrating: I've been dealing with Great Wolf Lodge Guest Relations since SEPTEMBER 28th trying to get this resolved. That's over a month of back-and-forth, wasted time, and frustration over charges that should never have been an issue in the first place. At this point, it's not just about the money. It's about accountability and how a company treats its customers when something goes wrong. When you start seeing complaint after complaint from other guests describing similar billing experiences, it raises some serious questions. How many families are dealing with this? How many people are being charged incorrectly and either not noticing or not having the time and energy to fight to get their money back? Families already spend a small fortune for a stay here. Between accommodations, food, activities, and additional expenses, the LAST thing anyone should have to worry about is questionable charges and an endless battle with customer service afterward. CONSIDER THIS YOUR WARNING: * Check your final bill before leaving. * Keep every receipt. * Monitor your bank and credit card statements. * Question every charge you don't recognize. A family vacation should leave you with great memories, NOT unexpected charges and weeks of trying to get someone to take responsibility. Great Wolf Lodge, how long are customers expected to chase Guest Relations to get billing issues corrected?

I found this Hilton Garden Inn which is about a 15-minute drive from the Mohegan Sun. The hotel was nice and clean, which is a plus to me. The beds were comfortable and I must say, I got some really good sleep that night. The only downside about the room is that the drain in the tub was clogged and the water was draining too slow during a shower which made me feel gross standing in that water. When I checked in, they gave me coupons to use at their restaurant. My mom and I decided to eat breakfast there and utilize the coupon. The breakfast was pretty good to me. Overall, if I find myself in the area again, I would stay here again. It's also right up the street from Foxwoods. We didn't get to check it out since we were mostly at the Mohegan Sun during our visit.

I called a week earlier to ask if we could be put near each other at the hotel, and the front desk person kindly said they would put us next to each other. When we checked in, we walked into the lobby. It is very pretty and appears clean. To their credit, they had us next door to our friends. Super cool! It was cool until we realized we were in a construction area. They were remodeling rooms across the hall, and Sheetrock dust was billowing into the hallway. Not cool! We went to the front desk, and they were accommodating and moved us (both rooms) upstairs, away from construction. If you have ever traveled for dance, there's quite a lot of stuff to carry/move. This wasn't fun during a heat wave, but we lugged everything upstairs. The second room was serviceable. We were a bit disappointed that the pool was closed for renovation, but happy that the office suggested their "sister hotel" for swimming. A little inconvenient, but at least there was a pool. Cons: the outdoor doors were not locked to outsiders. Due to the construction in various parts of the hotel, extension cords and propped doors were kind of the norm. Overall we would return.

I was very disappointed in my recent stay. Desk Staff was…read moremostly helpful and courteous. (Shout out to Patrick and Gurdy) My other favorite parts of the hotel were the complimentary coffee bar in the morning; the grab and go complimentary chilled bottles of water; and I found the bed comfortable. So why only one star? Housekeeping and the hotel's policy on housekeeping. Checkout is at 11, and I was staying several days, yet housekeeping was knocking on the door at 9:30 - 10;00 when I was relaxing, showering, or otherwise getting ready for the day. I am elderly and disabled so it takes me awhile to get going. But the policy is that if you "refuse" housekeeping by telling them that you aren't ready, they do not come back. I asked at the desk several times if they could please come after 11, since I would not be checking out for a week - but it didn't happen. The room had not been cleaned at all for 3 days in a row. Otherwise, it was fresh when we checked in and cleaned only 1 day during the 6 days of our stay. There's a large, elegant jar of ice water with lemon in the lobby. At least 2 days in a row it was neither cleaned nor refilled, and a sludgy layer of old lemons remained on the bottom. My partner and I made the unwise decision to have a drink and a light supper in the lounge one evening, and each ordered "crispy chicken filet on a brioche bun with fresh tomatoes and lettuce " for $16. It was a very small previously frozen chicken patty that had been microwaved, and had hot and cold spots. That's how I discovered there's no real kitchen. There's a crockpot that I saw when walking by that was steaming morning and night (for the nacho cheese, maybe?) and a microwave. Coincidentally, or perhaps not, my partner and I were each sick as dogs during that night and the next day. We had one cocktail each, so no, we didn't overdo it. There were other things as well but that's enough. I will never stay there again or recommend it to anyone I know. It looks pretty nice on line, and in person if you don't look closely, but it's actually a crummy motel pretending to be a resort, and selling itself on being close to Foxwoods Casino.

Rooms are a bit dated and could use a makeover. Casino check in was easy and centrally located. Would stay here again. If they want to compete with all the new casinos they will need to drive renovations and better perks.
