Explore New Haven
Hotel Marcel's waterfront location in the Historic Long Wharf District of New Haven — at the gateway to New England — makes us privy to diverse cultural and nature-fueled activities. Yale University and museums are nearby favorites, along with the Shubert Theater, Wooster Square's legendary pizza, and much more. Enjoy everything New Haven has to offer, including sailing, dragon boating, rowing, wine tasting, and upscale shopping. And now, through our partnership with Hyundai, you can explore the area with minimal environmental impact via our complimentary zero-emission car service.
