Place to Stay b/w NYC & Newport

We%26#39;re planning a trip from North Carolina to Newport. We need a place to stay between New York %26amp; Newport, maybe 2 hrs away from Newport. It%26#39;s just to spend the night. What is a safe place stay off I-95.





Thanks

New Haven area would be 2 hours. Most hotels are off the highway. Unless you get really lost its all pretty safe. All better places the further east you go. Groton/New London bout an hour from Npt.

Thanks. That%26#39;s the place I thought would be the best, but did not know much about the safety.



I think that%26#39;s where we will plan our stop.




I live right outside of New Haven in Orange CT. You can stay in New Haven at the Omni Hotel downtown. This is the only hotel I would advise in New Haven. Its right on the green in the hart of Yale. Check out the beautiful Yale Architecture, Wooster Street ( the Italian Section) which is home to Pepe%26#39;s Pizza. They are world famous for their pizza. They are on the Food Channel all the time. Every President for the last fifty years comes to Pepe%26#39;s when in town...except Obama. Louis Lunch is a block from The Omni. They are credited with inventing the Hamburger about 120 years ago...another Food Channel Show. What ever you do dont ask for Ketchup...They will yell at you and throw you out..Fun Stuff.





Other suggestions for a place to stay are the Indian Casinos..about an 1 hour 15 mins from Newport. They are Mohegan Sun and Foxwoods. Nice hotels! Foxwoods is teh largest casino in teh world. These are only 15 minutes from Mystic Seaport. Nice aquarium, and Historic Whaling Port.




Thanks for your input. It%26#39;s good to know from the ';locals';. It sounds that the Omni area is good choice. The restaurants sound good. Any good place for breakfast?





Thanks again




How about the Study at Yale? It gets great reviews in TA.
