It is close to Greenwich harbor,(for the sailors amongst us), the rooms are spacious and beautiful, with more upscale appointments than you can imagine,(heated toilet seats!!!Plush beds!!TV in the bathroom, too!). The dining room has a... More

Want to reach the front desk? guest services? valet? All choices lead to "Your call is very important to us...". While the human staff are really warm, friendly and helpful, the J House is an exercise in maddeningly mis-applied technology and I'm a career technologist. While application of technology to an overnight stay is possible and could make a traveler's... More

The J House is the hotel of the future! Delightful and fun. Lights are controlled via iPad and touchscreens. The bathroom is a treat with an indulgent Japanese-style toilet and high-end toiletries. I enjoyed finding a TV in the bathroom mirror, and a mirror in the bedroom that was the TV! Room was spacious, and the bed was comfortable. Final... More

J House is great. The owner did an outstanding renovation of this former Howard Johnson.

We have stayed here twice and felt like the food and beverage has a real identity and leadership but the hotel is a bit of a step child, without a parent. Our only complaint about the restaurant is the ridiculously loud live music screeching in the dining room while you are trying to speak to your guest. Re the lodging,... More
