Skip visiting as top tiered status benefits isn't always honored…read more As soon as I walked in the guy behind the counter seemed annoyed. In fact he acted like he was going to walk away from the front desk when I was trying to check in. Apparently he was annoyed because I didn't respond to a text message in the Marriott app which doesn't always trigger a notification on my phone. I really didn't care for this reaction as long as I got a clean room and got a later checkout time. Needless to say this was the first time I was given a flat no when requesting a later checkout. Usually if there is high volume or conflict there is some negotiation and that is fine but this time it seemed like a continuation of the bad attitude. Strangely enough it seemed approved in the app later which is most likely to make it look like I received my benefit to corporate but in reality not. The next day my key didn't work to get into my room earlier than usual. Skip visiting if you have status.

This is a pretty new property and is in very good condition. The front desk was quick to check me in and also helped me with the loan of a phone charger. If you're looking for a hotel quite nearby to Quinnipiac or Yale, this is a super choice!

After living in New Haven for 5 years and seeing the transformation of this building into the…read morebeautiful space it is now, it was fun to come back as a tourist to stay at the Hotel Marcel. For years, this was just the big brutalist building in the IKEA parking lot, but they've put so much work into making this a gorgeous hotel with comfortable amenities and retro design. The switches to manipulate the blinds were cool and I liked that there were different settings for different times of day. I appreciated the abundant free parking as well. This seemed to be a pretty busy conference / corporate hotel which is not surprising but we definitely didn't feel like an afterthought. The staff were friendly and checked in throughout our stay. I also loved the commitment to sustainability throughout the hotel (e.g., reusable bottles, wooden reusable key cards, energy efficient lighting).

I heard it was an old Ikea office building, and then Hilton turned it into a hotel. Staff was really friendly at check in and every time we saw them. Beds were low to the ground and comfy. Very modern hotel. Switches to lower the blinds and curtains etc. They even give you a wooden room key which was neat! Free parking, too! Can't beat that! Would definitely stay here again if in New Haven. I loved this hotel!

I walked over here to the Blake to check things out... and it is so beautiful and modern! The rooms look amazing and spacious, and they have a stylish bar open for dinner. It's not open for breakfast, but Lori (the wonderful employee at the front desk) explained that they offer free coffee and tea and pastries in the morning and that each room also has an espresso machine. Sign me up! They are booked up for tonight, but I made a reservation to switch for the rest of my visit. I'm super excited to move over here and will update later.

The only downsides were that all the seating areas around the lobby and the coffee shop were consistently full of college students studying making it hard to find a place to sit outside our room, and the pizza phone was not actually a thing it was just a photo op. You can still get door-dash pizza delivered but it isn't hot and fresh. We will stay again!

It is very hard to rate it here. If I were staying for 1 night and got a great rate, I'd probably…read moregive it 4 stars. And I more or less enjoyed staying here for a few days. But I have to warn folks off if they're planning to stay longer or expect more space. Plusses: --employees are super nice. Jaimie was very kind when I arrived carsick and a little dizzy! --cafe in the lobby is great for breakfast --rooms are QUIET (at least in the summer) and clean --the bed was extremely comfortable. So I slept well. Hooray! --location: very convenient for Yale --Bathroom was nicely sized and stylish. Now the Minuses: --OMG, other than the bathroom, my room was TINY. The Hilton name & the website makes the rooms look very fancy - but it's an old small hotel renovated to look cute & instagrammable. So there was barely room in the room for me let alone my suitcase. No room for a dresser. No room on the floor to stretch or do exercises. I was supposed to be here for work for 2 weeks - I got a fabulous rate and it was going to be about the same as an AirBnB (but as "a Hilton", it sounded nicer). But I could not unpack in this room - and I had no breathing room. So I arranged to check out after 5 nights and move to a more spacious hotel. --Also: coffee in the room? Instant. But there was no room really for a coffee pot, so I suppose I shouldn't be surprised. I would still give 4 stars with those caveats - except that sometimes the rate here is $400. I want to make sure people know what they would be getting for that! I slept really well and it was easy to get to meetings - but if I'd known, I would have stayed elsewhere for that amount. I was grateful to get to switch to the Blake later in the week, which was a lot roomier and modern. Hope that's helpful to anyone deciding where to stay!!

The room was clean, comfortable, and well appointed. It was quite despite being in a busy road and had a white noise machine at the bedside. The gym was very nice, with a peloton bike you could log into. The location was great for anyone needing to be around Yale or Yale Hospital. Only reason for docking a star is because some of the bathroom hardware (toilet paper holder and handle to enter the shower) were broken or loose.

All staff were incredibly nice and did try to solve all of the issues that we had. First room they sent us to reeked of smoke. We literally opened the door and then walked right back out to the front desk. It was terrible. In our 2nd room the tv was broken, maintenance could not fix it so they offered to move us to another room. At this point, we had already unpacked and we were staying for a week so we decided just to stay in the room with no TV. They offered us one free breakfast for the inconvenience. Since the breakfast there is not free. I went to use our free coupon for the breakfast and we were limited with the choices if we had a coupon. If we were just out right paying for breakfast, there were more options but not for the free breakfast with the ticket that we got for the inconvenience. There is no microwave in the room. The bathroom and coffee bar area are very small. Our last night there the AC kept switching itself over to heat. The maintenance guy came and tried to fix it, but he could not. So at that point we had to pack everything up and move to another room at like 1 o'clock in the morning.

This time it was for a smaller group event so the package wasn't as big. They did have some new things this year like a warrior course and extra bounce houses but it used to have horses I'm sad that those are gone. The bathrooms are in desperate need of updates the toilets are really crooked in all of the stalls there are notices to use paper towels on the walls yet they don't have paper towel holders. The donuts and muffins for breakfast we're not very good. The taco bar was delicious we got burgers hot dogs and a small buffet of chicken corn and coleslaw and potato salad they still have the ice cream truck where you can get unlimited ice cream and cotton candy and popcorn which are my favorite parts of Holiday Hill they have paddle boats and kayaks two pools those changing rooms need to be updated as well. There's a bunch of abandoned buildings on property that I believe used to have something to do with a camp. They have a lot of sport activities like ping Pong volleyball basketball tennis and mini golf. One of the mini golf holes is clogged and doesn't let the ball go through into the other spot like it's supposed to. It's nice for an outing but it definitely needs a lot of updates.
