Categories

Cleanliness
7.5
Mixed reports: several guests describe clean rooms and comfortable beds, but there are at least one reported missed housekeeping service and a preference against carpet in rooms.
Service
8.8
Generally excellent — multiple mentions of warm, helpful staff (valet, front desk, breakfast team). Isolated comment about slow or inattentive service, but overall staff praise is consistent.
Location
8.6
Strong central location near Yale, the Green and transport (Amtrak shuttle) and close to restaurants; however, some guests report street noise and confrontations with local homeless population that affect perception/safety at night.
Room Quality
7.2
Varied: some rooms described as large and well appointed, others have small bathrooms or insufficient bedding for advertised occupancy; noise and carpet are recurring negative points for some guests.
Amenities
8
Good amenities noted — buffet breakfast, a la carte options and a convenient shuttle are praised. Some complaints about breakfast not being included in the rate or being costly.
Value for Money
6.5
Several guests describe the hotel as a poor value due to room rates, extra charges and misleading booking descriptions; a few feel convenience for events partly offsets cost.
Food and Beverage
8.6
Generally positive: breakfast and dinner repeatedly praised (buffet described as excellent and enjoyable), though some note breakfast may not be included or is expensive.
Overall Experience
8
Overall positive stays are common with helpful staff and excellent location, but issues such as nighttime noise, occasional housekeeping lapses, room-size/beding problems and value concerns temper the experience.

Beautiful and convenient hotel, awesome service!
Pros:

The staff from the minute you entered the property was outstanding. From the Valet to the Front Desk associate - so warm and welcoming. The team on the 19th floor was so kind to my elderly Dad at Breakfast. They made some great recommendations for site seeing and local food options.

Cons:

The only downside was the noise from the street - firetrucks, sirens and motorcycles all night long.

Perfect location for lovers of great Art
Pros:

Arrived in New Haven via Amtrak from New York - there's a free bus shuttle service just outside the station and it stops outside the Omni. A very friendly and helpful welcome to a lovely hotel very near the Green and Yale campus, historic buildings and churches. Our room was large and well appointed. The buffet breakfast (you can choose a la carte as well) was excellent, $32 each for a lovely choice of dishes, complete with a view across New England. Dinner in the evening was excellent as well. Right next door there's Barcelona for tapas dishes, this too was a treat. Must sees include Yale Museum of English Art (Louis Kahn architect) and Yale Art Gallery, and just wandering around this very important part of US history. Thanks to everyone at the Omni for a lovely two day stay. Onwards to Providence by Amtrak ...

Cons:

All perfect, thanks!
