Foxwoods Hotel/Motels Near By?

[Scottnyce]

Anyone know of any good ones, I'll even settle for cheap and close...?

[CrackerZack]

Groton is about 20 minutes away and is rather cheap. We stayed at the super8 last weekend for like 90 with a last minute reservation.

Good luck. You can get cheap + not close and you can get not cheap + close, but you'll have difficulty getting both. If you really need the room to be cheap, you're going to end up in New London/Groton/Mystic, about 20-25 minutes away from the casino.

Is Groton closer to the NY side or the Boston side?

[Joe Tall]

Puke sorry, my first reply was compelely wrong, so it's NY Side. Groton is on Rt. 95 South West of Fox.

what about that one that's like 5 minutes down the road from the woods on Rt 2? i stayed there one time, it was like $60 a night with coupon.. but the coupons you can find anywhere, probably even in the lobby of the hotel in some pamphlet. i dont know the name but it's just down the road and even has a shuttle to and fro the casino every so often.. actually it might be a limo.. but it was cheap.

It's called the Hilltop, but I've never stayed there for less than $125 on the weekends.

speaking of foxwoods, are the limits of their craps table outrageous, or do they have a $5 table somewhere?

[RiverMel]

Yep, they almost always have at least one $5 craps table going.

I stayed at the Hilltop one Sunday night last month when the casino hotels were all booked up. Although the front desk wanted $125 when I called the Friday before, I got the room for approx. $80 by prebuying online via a regional room reseller that was similar to Hotels.com. I can't remember the name of the website--try searching google for "Foxwoods hotels"
