Nice hotel, wonderful service, enjoyable stay. Note the back rooms of the hotel are literally right next to the train tracks, so you will notice the noise throughout the night. Continental breakfast is a little lacking.

I had an event in Westport where there don’t seem to be any options and this was a 15 minute ($18 dollar) car service ride away. I was very pleasantly surprised. Recently renovated so the rooms are big and bedding very comfy. Good size modern bathroom and a lot of towels. Nice big TV. The decor is rustic chic. The lobby also has a very nice large seating area with natural light and comfy couch/chairs. So you can gather if you are a large group. It’s a low rise and j the back is a wooded area with a creek (don’t think there was access to this) and the front is busy main road. But f need be, you can cross over and there is a liquor store and Stop & Shop maybe a 4 minute walk. Refrigerator in room and the restaurant lent us a couple of spoons. The restaurant on premises opens at 5 pm and the food was very good. They also had a happy hour. Staff very helpful and friendly in both lobby and restaurant. free continental breakfast was fine. A few coffee options. Overall a very safe bet and I’d stay again when I need to go to area.

The design of this hotel is beautiful, and despite being on the main road it was quiet inside the property. The windows in the breakfast room on the river side are in need of cleaning (lots of algae growing) and there were no dairy-free options at breakfast. The trash bin at breakfast was overflowing and right in the middle of the room which was strange. I didn’t mind hearing the train from our room and slept really well. I did notice the bathroom counter was dusty (maybe from the vents? I’m sure the cleaners wouldn’t leave it like that) but it felt clean otherwise. There was only one person at the desk when we checked in, she was on the phone talking about room pricing to a potential customer, and we had to wait in a line for a while until we were able to check in. I think paying customers should take precedence.

We really enjoyed our stay at The Watershed. It is a beautiful hotel with big, clean rooms and a unique layout and original classy finishes. The staff is exceptional, friendly, and helpful in every way. They actually greet you when entering the hotel and everyone was so nice. Unfortunately, the only reason I'm not giving a perfect score is because we were there when a wedding party was staying at the hotel and they were incredibly rude and out of control. We were up until 3am dealing with their loud drunk behavior. There is no reason for people to get so drunk and act so out of control. This could happen anywhere so not the fault of the hotel but I wish they had signs reminding the wedding party to act appropriately while people are sleeping. Also be careful of the main road in front of the hotel. It is a major highway and people drive much faster than they should. We were walking our dog on the sidewalk and a car skidded against the the curb right next to us. Very scary.
