“"Your call is very important to us..."”

Reviewed 15 May 2013

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

“Futuristic hotel in the heart of Old Greenwich”

Reviewed 12 May 2013

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

“A restaurant with guest rooms as an after-thought”

Reviewed 26 April 2013 via mobile

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
