The closest accommodations are at Sheperd's Run. They offer luxury rooms and the highest price point. The second closest hotel is the Marriott Fairfield in and Suites just across the street from Sheperd's Run off of RTE 1 in South Kingstown. There are numerous other hotels between the venue and Mystic however, we've reserved a block of rooms at the rate of $119.00 per room per night at the Holiday Inn New London making it the most economical choice around.

Please see the accommodations tab for more information.
