Fodor's Expert Review Lyme Inn

With an enchanted setting on the elliptical village common in Colonial Lyme, this four-story inn that began life as a stagecoach stop in the early 1800s offers an elegant, tranquil respite from the crowds of Hanover and offers meals in an esteemed restaurant. The gorgeous suites and rooms are historic yet rather chic, with hardwood floors and period antiques along with robes, refrigerators, Keurig coffeemakers, flat-screen TVs, and climate control.
