Other Things to Note

From its handcrafted architectural details to its bold artistic interiors, The Sanctuary on Washington is more than just a place to stay. It is an experience.

Come create lasting memories at one of Norwich’s most unique historic homes.

You may be greeted by Boy, a friendly gray tabby from the neighborhood. He loves attention and pets, but please don’t try to pick him up.

Good to Know
This is a historic home built in 1870, which means you’ll experience some original charm like creaky floors and vintage details.

We’ve paired that character with modern essentials including WiFi, smart TVs, AC, and laundry.

The home is located in a quiet residential neighborhood, so this is not a party house. We ask guests to respect quiet hours in the evening.

This property was ideal for our getaway. We were celebrating my grandson' 21st Halloween birthday . We had a blast. Thank you. The cat was an extra added surprise and he seemed to love all the attention he got. We will be back.

It felt like we stayed at a friends mansion. As a world traveler, I must say, this is one of the best places weve ever stayed at. Host provides everything needed, and place was spotless when we arrived. Cant wait to return!

The house is absolutely stunning & I love the color-drenched rooms. The town of Norwich itself was less than impressive, but we were staying just to visit Mystic nearby. I would definitely stay here again.
