Cambria Hotels added New Haven, Connecticut to its growing lineup of coast to coast properties.
The opening of the six-story, 130-room Cambria Hotel New Haven University Area is the brand’s first property in Connecticut.
Located at 20 Dwight Street, the new Cambria hotel is ideally situated within walking distance to Yale University, as well as popular dining, shopping, and live entertainment in the city’s historic downtown.
