      On the water

      This is an old school mom-and-pop motel. The room was sparkling clean, with fresh flowers! Very warm friendly staff too.

      Thames River Inn

      Dogs are invited and love it here. We stayed at Thames River Inn Groton Ct 8/29/22. Wayne couldn’t have been nicer. Very clean. Great big tv. Great value. Not your typical chain motel but it’s nice to give a small business our support. 5 bones.

      Nice and quiet

      Place is old and outdated, but very clean and friendly. Staff was wonderful and our dogs enjoyed it.

      Good location, clean

      Very dog friendly hotel in a nice location with fantastic water and sunset views across to New London. The place is a bit weathered and needs some maintenance and repairs but was clean and comfortable. The guy who checked us in was friendly and nice. We would stay there again.

      Wayne is extremely accommodating and friendly

      Great little place with beautiful views. Clean rooms that have been recently renovated. We only stayed a night; we were just going to a show at casino. But would definitely stay again and longer if situation called for it. Wayne is awesome. Thanks for everything!

      Great stay

      Owner was very friendly and made the check-in process a breeze. My dog enjoyed watching the boats on the marina. Suites were spacious, but the kitchen did not have basic essentials apart from some pots and pans, so bring your own cups and utensils!

      Dog loving facility

      This place was very accommodating to our 90lb German shepherd. Everyone loved him. The owner/manager was delighted by him and let him in the office like he was another guest. There were several other dogs there as well. It is hard to find lodging for large dogs. We will definitely be going back here again.
