RECIPIENT OF CONNECTICUT'S HIGHEST AWARD FOR HOSPITALITY
"The Griswold Inn, sometimes known as the ‘Gris’, is an
inn with the most extraordinary atmosphere in the nation. Indeed it is doubtful if another inn can go so far back in the
country's history. There is no other place to compare with the 'Gris' in atmosphere, in hospitality, in the excellence of its cuisine unless it is another 'Gris'."
~ Connecticut Almanac
One of the oldest continuously operated inns in the country, The Griswold Inn opened its doors for business in 1776 and has been catering to yachtsmen and overland travelers ever since. We are situated in the historic hamlet of Essex, nestled on the banks of the Connecticut River. Anyone familiar with Essex knows it as an extraordinary town and The Griswold Inn – a very special place. Although the inn exudes the charm of a day gone by, we are anything but dated. From our sophisticated cuisine, extensive wine offerings, comfortable accommodations, and modern "amenities" - such as wireless internet access - The Griswold Inn offers the best of times.
