Gigantic helium balloons and stunning sculptures take to the streets of downtown Stamford seasonally, and that alone is a sign that this is not your ordinary small town! Stamford is still known for quaint residential living, though fast becoming a corporate headquarters mecca with skyscrapers punctuating the skyline. Streets are lined with simple clapboard farmhouses and spacious Georgian mansions as well as eclectic eateries and unique antique shops, including America’s largest antiques dealer, United House Wrecking. The city also offers a wealth of cultural riches. Partly due to its proximity to Broadway, its theater community (which includes hometown celebrity Gene Wilder) serves as a training ground for budding artists. There is also a local branch of New York City’s Whitney Museum and exceptional outdoor concerts by the city’s talented symphony. To top it all off, Stamford has an enviable coastal location with breathtaking views of the Long Island Sound. More on the Stamford Hotel Rooms...
