This December my little fur baby Kai and I visited the beautiful DELAMAR West Hartford. The DELAMAR West Hartford is the area’s newest boutique luxury hotel! The onsite amenities include fine dining and a full-service luxury spa. I was able to visit during the holidays for the Shoppers Getaway Package they have running until 01/31/2021 (more on this below!!).

I’ve been lucky enough to shoot a styled wedding shoot at The DELAMAR Greenwich last year and these hotels truly set themselves apart from the rest! The staff is incredible, the hotel is stunning, and the spas are truly some of the best in CT!


Kai and I stayed in the Deluxe King Room which is included in the Shoppers Getaway package – you can find this room here!
“A chic and spacious room with a king size bed, large windows, a glass enclosed shower and bath amenities by Bvlgari.Deluxe guest room has large windows that open, features one king size bed, a 50” SMART TV, a Bluetooth alarm clock/radio, coffee maker, minibar and an in-room safe. The spacious bathroom has a glass enclosed shower and bath amenities by Bvlgari. The hotel offers complimentary WIFI, valet parking, shuttle within 5-mile radius and breakfast.“

We were so impressed with the beautiful private balcony! The fact that you can hang out right outside your hotel room with beautiful city views – really set this hotel a part.


One of my favorite things was that they are pet friendly! Kai was greeted with dog treats, cute bowls, water annnd her own bed! It was so so sweet and cute!

The decorations for the holidays were so beautiful…



Another great thing about the DELAMAR West Hartford is that The Artisan restaurant is right downstairs. The food and drinks are just outstanding – the interiors are so lovely as well!
“Artisan West Hartford is the conception of Charles Mallory, Rick Wahlstedt and Frederic Kieffer who have combined their experience and expertise to create this unique and innovative casual/fine dining restaurant. Our New England inspired American cuisine has an emphasis on farm fresh fare from our onsite garden and local and regional farms. ” – The Artisan West Hartford

The DELAMAR West Hartford and the town of West Hartford was so cautious and careful about taking care of their guests during this time of COVID-19. Sanitization stations were everywhere and the shops were all so cautious with the amount of customers allowed in. Masks were also required at all locations. I felt so safe here and really appreciated the care that they took with this.

Their is also a lovely Gran and Go breakfast station for guests right down in the lobby. One of the best things is the espresso maker that makes all kinds of coffees and hot chocolate too!

Another must do when staying here is a visit to their highly acclaimed spa! I did a 60-minute full body massage and it was absolutely fantastic! My mom use to be a massage therapist when I was younger- so I promise I’ve had my fair share of massages in my day – they really did a fantastic job! How this works at this time is that you and the masseuse are required to wear a mask during your treatment – It really didn’t bother me at all to have it on as I was so relaxed!

This was such a highlight of my stay – I loved getting to visit all the sweet local shops and see the decorations in their stores and around town!





So much fun! Also, the shops lets me in with Kai – I just put her in her little bag and carried her in. I love shopping in West Hartford as it’s all outdoors and there are so many great shops!

Be sure and take a look at the beautiful historic sites and buildings on your walk over from the hotel to the shopping area. So many beautiful things to see!

We had such a wonderful visit to the DELAMAR West Hartford and can’t wait to visit again! It truly was such a relaxing and fun experience and I genuinely loved getting to bring along my furry pal, Kai with me as we shopped for the holidays!
