Top Branford Hotel Reviews

Hyatt Place Milford / New Haven

8/10 Good

"Breakfast was convenient. Wish sink was in the bathroom instead of outside."

Gorgeous 3BR Beach House with Private Beach Access.

10/10 Excellent

"Great place. Beach access is very close. We really liked the aesthetic. Comfortable sleep. WiFi was really spotty at first, but we unplugged and plugged and it was perfect after that. Weather was awful, so we didn’t quite get to experience it as planned, but the sun room made a great game room.Would stay again."
