GREENWICH, CT — One of Greenwich's premier hotels has been recognized by USA Today and the publication's 10Best Readers' Choice Awards for 2026.
The Delamar Greenwich Harbor hotel was ranked No. 9 on the list of the 10 best waterfront hotels in the country.
"Whether by a lake or overlooking the sea, there's something special about vacationing near water," the USA Today 10Best website says. "Nominated by a panel of hotel and travel experts and voted as the best in the country by readers, each of these 10 U.S. waterfront properties sets the scene for a memorable and relaxing vacation."
Located at 500 Steamboat Road, Delamar Greenwich Harbor was reimagined in 2000 into the property it is today.
"Delamar Greenwich Harbor is a tucked-away gem in the Long Island Sound. The 82 rooms here feature private balconies or fireplaces and Illy Espresso machines, while the exclusive Belvedere Floor offers bespoke in-room dining and a personal concierge," USA Today 10Best says.
"The hotel's French restaurant, l'escale, is set on a waterfront terrace and boasts 200-year-old terra-cotta tiles. Throw in pampering treatments at the spa and you'll see why this elegant waterside hotel is amongst the country's best."
Another Connecticut hotel made the list - the Madison Beach Hotel, Curio Collection by Hilton - which ranked No. 4.
The top spot was taken by Chatham Bars Inn on Cape Cod.
USA Today's 10Best section features nominations from experts in a variety of areas, from food and drink, shopping, sports, outdoors, travel destinations, lodging, attractions and more.
