The best area to stay in New London is the historic downtown district, particularly along Bank Street and State Street.

This area is the heart of New London, known for its historic architecture, independent shops, and a variety of dining options. It's very walkable, with many attractions within easy reach, including the Custom House Maritime Museum and the Garde Arts Center. The waterfront is also easily accessible from this area, offering views of the Thames River.

Couples looking for a relaxing getaway will appreciate staying downtown. You'll find charming boutique hotels and upscale restaurants, superb for an evening out. The area's proximity to the Amtrak station also makes it convenient for those arriving by train, and it's a pleasant place for strolls along the river or exploring local art galleries.

For those planning to visit the nearby attractions like Mystic Seaport or the casinos, staying slightly outside the immediate downtown, perhaps along Route 1, offers good value.

The best time to visit New London is during the summer months, from June to August, when the weather is warm and ideal for enjoying the coastline and outdoor activities.

During this period, you can expect average daily temperatures ranging from 20°C to 27°C, with plenty of sunshine. This is great for exploring the beaches along Long Island Sound, such as Ocean Beach Park, or taking a ferry to Block Island or Fishers Island for a day trip. The warmer weather also makes it pleasant for walking around downtown New London and enjoying al fresco dining.

For those who prefer slightly cooler temperatures and fewer crowds, late spring (May) and early autumn (September to early October) are also excellent choices. The weather remains pleasant, typically between 15°C and 22°C, and the vibrant autumn foliage along the Thames River is particularly scenic. You'll find it's a good time for exploring the historic sites without the peak season bustle.

While New London does experience cold winters with occasional snow, the festive season in December offers a different kind of charm with holiday lights and events.
