Nice place to stay a good value.
Bed could have been more comfortable but still good.
Windows didn’t block much noise so construction noise and heavy rain seemed loud.
Points for improvement but would stay again.

It was lovely aside from multiple homeless people walking around the halls of the hotel and lingering. Otherwise had a very nice stay.

Hotel was okay. Breakfast staff was not friendly - acted like serving was beneath them. Bar charge me $16 for a pint of beer. Four beers for two people $64. I’ve been to all major cities throughout the US and several throughout Europe and have never been charged $16 for a pint in any hotel.

Hotel was nice
Hotel was nice. There was a bright flashing light above our bed which made it hard to sleep, but other than that it was clean and the food was good.

Clean stay, easy parking, and just a few let-downs
It was excellent, very clean, comfortable, etc. The only two downsides were: 1) we asked to have the room serviced while we were out for a few hours, and it was not serviced during that window, which complicated our getting ready for a wedding, 2) there was a lot of street noise and early in the morning when we were attempting to sleep in the housekeeping staff played music in other rooms very loudly. Parking was very easy and we appreciated and early check-in! Generally would stay again!

Clean spacious room with friendly staff
Staff was great. Accidentally booked two rooms and they were helpful getting the other reservation canceled at no charge. Room was clean although I think something was going on with the sewerage during my 2 night stay because the bathroom toilet had a funky sewer smell to it which it didn’t have last time I stayed there and I spoke to another guest who was staying on another floor and she said that her bathroom had the same smell but I would still definitely stay here again. Great nightly rate and convenient parking garage available within feet from the hotel.

Nice find in New Haven.
The Cambria Hotel New Haven is a great hotel. I loved the contemporary decor. It's a relatively new hotel of only a few years old. Some of the finishes in the room were worn out.
The front desk personnel were very professional, friendly, and helpful.
The wait staff in the lobby restaurant was efficient but not overly welcoming or friendly.
I'd say it's great value for the money. I'd stay there again.
It's walkable from the entertainment area and the campus of Yale and Yale New Haven Hospital. I might feel a little unsafe later in the night. But, I walked from the hotel easily to Union Station and all areas in downtown.
