A very pretty place and they have obviously worked hard to keep the place alive. Very, very clean, friendly staff and restaurant looks exceptional (we ate at Ching's Table... which was heavenly). Easy walk into town, and nice gardens. The room was well lit, bed was wonderful, there was a large flat screen which I never touched. And the shower... More

We checked into the Roger Sherman for a wedding and were very pleased with our room. It was large and held a king bed with night tables on each side and plenty of room to walk about. The A/C was working fine, the bath and shower were new, modern, and there was shelf room for dob kits. The closet was... More

I recently stayed at the Roger Sherman Inn, along with several members of my family, which means I had an opportunity to see multiple rooms. If you want true New England charm, go for the main house, which was built in the 1700's. DO take your earplugs and sleeping pills, though, as live entertainment goes all night and the sound... More

We stayed in the carriage house behind the main Inn with a number of guests in town for a wedding. The room was very small with a big bed. The heater/air conditioner was not working - a note said not to change the temperature setting, which made the room really cold if running - the natural temperature was too warm... More

Convenient location, nice continental breakfast, but that's where the benefits end. Prices are higher than listed on their internet site (how difficult is it to update them?) They won't honor the internet prices. Rooms smell musty, the wall paper is peeling and bathroom is barely passable. On weekend nights they rent the restaurant out to parties, playing loud music late... More

The inn is in a lovely, upscale area, but the decorating of the 'deluxe room' leaves a lot to be desired. Although the room was large and clean, it was definitely lacking in amenities. The decor of the room was spartan and didn't even include a dresser or armoire for storing clothes. The shades on the windows were ancient and... More

We spent a weekend at the Roger Sherman while visiting family in the area, and were delighted by this charming historic property. The Inn sits on a lovely street in bucolic New Canaan, a ten minute walk to the village shopping district with boutiques, restaurants, gourmet shops, etc. Other reviewers are correct that rooms have been updated tastefully with amenities...

I have stayed at Roger Sherman many, many times in the past and was pleasantly surprised by the improvements which have been made by the charming new owners. Rooms are being beautifully decorated, breakfast is much better and the entire atmosphere is positive, warm and upbeat. Well done!

I have been traveling back and forth to eastern Connecticut for more than six years now to visit my parents in their assisted living apartment in Redding. It has been a source of dismay and puzzlement to my entire family how such wealthy and upmarket communities offer so little in the way of decent lodging. We have tried B&B's in... More

Just had Christmas dinner here. The facility is stunning inside & out. It's apparent that the owners have spared no expense in maintaining it at the highest of standards. The food is likewise top notch both in preparation & presentation. However, the wait staff were a very sorry lot. We had our dinner at the last seating of the day... More
