When is the best time to go to Blue Hills?

The best time to go to Blue Hills for pleasant weather and outdoor activities is from late spring to early autumn, specifically May through October. During these months, the weather is generally mild and comfortable, with warmer temperatures great for exploring the many hiking trails and enjoying the scenic beauty of the area. You'll find the Blue Hills Reservation, with its extensive network of paths and viewpoints like the Great Blue Hill, particularly inviting. For those who enjoy water activities and festivals, the peak summer months of July and August are ideal. The local lakes offer opportunities for kayaking and paddleboarding, and many towns in the vicinity host outdoor concerts and farmers' markets which are lovely to experience. If you're interested in seeing the spectacular autumn foliage, late September and October are truly magical. The hillsides transform into a canvas of reds, oranges, and yellows, making it an excellent time for scenic drives and photography.

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Hartford - Bradley Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean and pleasant hotel. The person who checked me in was friendly and helpful. The hotel is close to the airport and has a free shuttle. There is a basic free breakfast as well. Good choice if you’re flying out of Bradley Airport."

The Capitol Hotel

8/10 Good

"An Honest Review from Someone Who Travels for Work I read the previous reviews before my stay, and honestly, I was a little terrified when my assistant booked this property for my 4-day work trip. After staying here, I wanted to share my own honest experience. Location: The location is excellent. The hotel is directly across from the beautiful Bushnell Park and only about a 5-minute walk from downtown Hartford. Hotel: Yes, the hotel is older and definitely has an outdated feel. You may notice an old-carpet smell, but considering the age of the building, it wasn't a major issue for me. Room: I stayed in a Queen room, and overall, it was clean and well maintained. My only complaint was the lighting. The room was fairly dark, and I had to rely mostly on the lamps on the nightstands. Bathroom: The bathroom is also older and could definitely use an upgrade. However, it was clean and perfectly fine for taking a shower. One thing I did find inconvenient was that there were no electrical outlets in the bathroom. Breakfast: DELICIOUS! Definitely one of the highlights of my stay. Staff: The staff was welcoming, friendly, and attentive throughout my stay. Overall: Was it a modern, luxury hotel? No. Is the property showing its age? Absolutely. But it was clean, comfortable, conveniently located, and the staff was great. Based on some of the previous reviews, I expected much worse. My experience was actually quite positive, especially for a work trip."
