Westford Otelleri

Stayed for a week at this location. Parking is plentiful and comes at no charge. The property could use a renovation as it's dated and showing the wear of the years. The floors in the room squeak/pop. The room was sufficient, clean, and comfortable. The television had plenty of channels including HBO 1 and 2. Breakfast was pretty good and always well stocked. I'd still stay again if I were in the area, to accumulate Hilton Honors points.

On March 19, my sons and I pulled off a wonderful, surprise 75th birthday dinner party for 26 at The Groton Inn, with friends and relatives flying in from as far away as Seattle and Charleston, SC. It was 5 star in every aspect. Everyone raved about the quality of food. I tasted all three hors d'oeuvres and loved them all. Even our 3 and 6 year old grandchildren ate them! Several told me how much they loved the short ribs. Utterly delightful and like nothing I had tasted before! Those choosing the chicken entree found it delicious, as did those with the vegetarian linguini choice. The steak was very tasty and exceedingly tender for a NY *****. The corn bisque was devine. The arugula salad light and a perfect transition to the main course. Portions were huge. I was afraid, in advance, of noise and distraction by servers between courses, but not once did I hear the sound of a dish clanging against another! It was a 5 star service. Our grandchildren were taken care of perfectly, as if they were tiny adults. They felt like it and consequently behaved as well. The cake presentation was fabulous, with lights dimmed and expertly timed! And the ”service captain” divided the remaining cake in thirds and boxed it so that it was more manageable to take home. So delicious! Dolce Amor, the local Sicilian baker, is incredible!!!!! And I have traveled to 40+ countries and lived in France and NYC where food is fantastic. The Groton Hill punched every possible ”ticket.” But the captain went over the top with her service, offering to take my coat moments after I walked in to the SURPRISE greeting. Such a perfect gesture and an unscripted one! She also looked after those of us lingering with hotel guests, even getting us cups of water. She was simply great. I know the staff was weary, but she never stopped. The room was so beautifully set - flowers and placecards - oh I was so pleased. But guests commented to me as well on such details. They also loved their sleeping rooms, specious, comfortable and quiet. And the Front Desk was an accomplice in the crime of the SURPRISE. They held ”props” for my son from CA and he even dressed in costume in their midst. They ensured all guests had their welcome bags, carefully segregating the two for the grandchildren. Everyone was thrilled and seemingly very happy having attended. The morning after, my husband and I were there at 7 for early risers, headed to the airport or home by car, for a lovely and bountiful buffet breakfast. Compliments streamed. I never heard a single complaint, if there was one. I am so grateful to The Groton Inn for orchestrating such a fun and memorable event, beginning with Eleanor and the Sales Staff for their advice each step along the way. Nancy
