Dramatic Makeover for Connecticut Lodging

BRISTOL, Conn.

 DoubleTree by Hilton has announced the opening of a new hotel in Bristol, Conn. Formerly a Clarion hotel, the DoubleTree by Hilton Bristol, Connecticut opens following a 13-month and more than $20 million renovation.

Less than a mile from ESPN headquarters and ESPN Plaza, the DoubleTree by Hilton Bristol unveils a new design in its transformed setting. Custom artwork highlights the newly renovated lobby, and the hotel’s 141 guest rooms are enhanced by contemporary upgrades. A brand-new five-story, 19-suite tower offers a separate, more private entrance for guests.

Guests at the hotel can enjoy all-day dining at The Willows restaurant, featuring a farm-fresh menu of seasonal New American fare and an extensive wine list with boutique selections from around the world. The hotel’s Time Out sports bar features a seasonal menu of light bites made with local, fresh ingredients, and 12 of the finest craft beers from all over the country. The two new dining venues feature menus created by award-winning Executive Chef Leo C. Bushey, III.

The hotel also features more than 7,000 square feet of flexible meeting space, an indoor heated swimming pool, 24-hour fitness center, 24-hour business center and complimentary WiFi internet access for all guests throughout the hotel.
