The Spa at Norwich Inn sits on 42 landscaped acres in Norwich, adjacent to an 18-hole municipal golf course.

  • Nearby attractions include Norwich Arts Center, Slater Memorial Museum and Mystic-area stops within a short drive.

  • On-site marina and dock make it convenient for boating, kayaking and water-based excursions.
  • Preferred airport noted as Bradley Intl., with nearby small airports listed in the supplier notes.

Pick Saybrook Point for a central, coastal location with easy access to waterfront activities and harbor views.

  • Spa facilities also include sauna, steam room, whirlpool/hot tub and relaxation room.

  • Two outdoor pools add more open-air swimming options during warmer months.
  • Dock and marina support boating, kayaking and nearby boat tours.
  • Pool access hours and policies are listed by the property; check at booking for seasonal schedules.
