Connecticut Convention Center Reviews

Very nice event center, it could be much more business productive if we had the Governor in place...

Convention Center was neat and clean. It offers food and beverages on the lower level as well as on the convention floor.

The big building allows for many events to go on at once. As far as I can tell, it is kept tidy especially for being such a big place.

Awesome facility. Very clean. Nice space. Tons of bathrooms!

This is where I go for connecticon. It is very decent at the time.

I attended the Hartford Flower show on the 21st of February at the Ct. Convention Center. There was ample parking, easy ticket purchase, and easy departure from the garage.
I have not experienced any other event there.

Some good events here. My only complaint is a lot of the events are cash only for tickets.

It's a convention center. Bathrooms are clean. Parking is a little weird garage is next to building but no real easy way to get to exhibits from garage. Cold and windy walk.

I recently attended a conference here and it was one of the better conference venues I've been to. I only wish I found a coffee shop inside. Maybe it's there, so I won't take away stars for that. But this location had tons of places to unwind after sessions and work spaces when needed.

Spacious, clean, good lighting and sound system. Could use more in house food service choices for events and definitely needs another coffee shop or two. Parking is very close but expensive.

Awesome building and lots of great restaurants nearby. It is in a really nice part of Hartford with history, too.

ConnectiCon. Need I say more. That poor place gets turned upside down but they are very good about the big crowd of creativity that comes through there for the long weekend every July. I give them credit

My daughter finally got her first tattoo at Tommy's Tattoo Convention!!

I took my kids for the Lego event. Very well organized.

Went to my granddaughters cheerleading competition. Not much to say about center. Big and pretty easy to get around.

Very nice & large, accommodates large crowds well, parking is difficult with one entrance for everyone arriving for same time

Bridal expo was good. Could have had more vendors but nice mixture of options.

Most recently attended a RV show. Amazing how many fit in there.

Nice space for retro world expo this year with good sized panel rooms. I was able to bring in an empty water bottle to refill as well. The only downer was the limited seating in the cafe, though they didn't seem to be restricting anyone from bringing food onto the expo floor.

I went to the flower show. It was set up nicely with many vendors and several gardens displayed for ideas.

We had an awesome time. We went on a Friday, early so it wasn't too crowded.

It was nice and big. Great staff and the bars were pleasant

Went to a convention bought a lot of stuff I didn't like go to much of the area but it looks really nice. Got them nice rugs LOL.

Really convenient to get in and out from the I91, convention, hotel , restaurant, science center and downtown Hartford all at hand. Nice place to be.

Well organized event, with professional facilities.

Clean, large area. Always liked Convention Center. Parking super easy across the street in the garage. Several area restaurants to eat at after.

Attended a corporate gathering here. I never expect the food to be very good at those things, especially when there are ~500 people. But the catering was actually quite good! The catering staff was very friendly and helpful. The room didn't get stuffy even after 10 hours.

Nice experience. No sales people to avoid. Looked at many brands and listened to other customers opinions of their own vehicles. Still not sure what get

Super clean professionally run facility designed to accommodate family and senior citizens highly recommend booking events Ray Connecticut

Cold! Spent 3 days there, shivered the whole time. No free, fast WiFi. Disappointing

As a vendor at the fall home show I was very pleased. It was productive, it was clean, and staff was very friendly.

Easy to get to, easy to park, nice meeting rooms and interesting architecture.

Went to discover the dinosaurs exhibit. The convention center had close parking to the center. It was reasonably priced. The center itself was very large for various events. It was well kept and clean in the bathrooms. Overall a nice center.

Huge clean facility for events, there is a lot of parking and good restaurants in the area. The immediate neighborhood seems safe and clean, and I have never encountered bad traffic getting to events hosted there.

I've only ever been here for ConnectiCon, but the venue is spacious and really great - it has everything you need at a convention!

Opportunity to earn money, good business, excellent electricity prices. I love!!

Huge facility, great for larger events. Food options are limited and overpriced.

Went for Hartford flower show. Nice gardens but many vendors which had nothing to do with gardening

Wonderful place. Clean and well kept. Even the bathrooms were nice. Food was also good.

I attended the Connecticut Convention Center for Hartford National College Fair. It was my second time attending. There were over 300 colleges there. I served as a financial aid educational counselor answering questions at the booth where there were other college support advisors from different organizations. The Connecticut Convention Center was extremely accommodating. I had no problems parking or trying to figure out where the event was happening. Everything was laid out very clearly. The registration process was extremely smooth. They were people that would come to me first and asked me if I needed help and would show me/walk me to where my booth was in the event area. They offered refreshments, Wifi access, and asked if there was anything else we needed as some were doing presentations and workshops and may have needed extra things like computer access or use of a projector, etc. A person even came around and gave me a validated parking ticket so I'd be able to leave the event with no problems because parking was free as I was a volunteer for the event. But that showed extra care and effort passing out validated tickets because I could imagine, some people rushing and packing up everything for their college tables and may have forgotten to grab their parking ticket out of their car. No complaints at all! A+ all the way.

Go here every year for CTCon. It's spacious with many rooms for events and panels. The only thing that could be different is the food inside. It's usually hit ot miss with quality.

Fantastic convention center! The rooms were beautiful and there was plenty of parking outside as well. The center layout was easy to understand and I didn't find myself getting lost.

Went for the home builder show. Going through the parking garage was a hike due to the way the event staff directed us.

Excellent space for large events.
Ambit Energy with # Simulcast2019 was great. We are going for our

it was alright but the parking garage was annoying because there was no simple way to exit it. you had to roll around every single floor all the way down.

A great space with very few good conventions,and the price of parking is too high.

A solid space for any convention. Lots of events happening throughout the summer, & many opportunities to volunteer and get in with the behind the scenes action.

Ample parking, easy on and off the highway. Large facility and clean.

The convention center was clean, easily accessible, and overall I had a great experience.

I did find the staff that supported the lunch sessions during the conference I attended, to be very rude and generally unhappy. That was unfortunate. They spent most of their time guarding the beverages to be sure each person only took one (which I completely understand, as I have hosted events before and that is a huge hosting cost), but they never smiled or greeted you. If I said hello, they essentially just glared, or maybe gave me a head nod.

Of the hundreds of conferences I have attended, it is also at least tied, if not the winner, for the coldest event room I have ever been in. Definitely bring layers! I was so frozen by the time I got back to my hotel room each night, that I could not get the shower water warm enough, to thaw myself out. I cranked it up as hot as it would go, and literally stood under the water for 10 minutes, just trying to stop shivering.

Everything went pretty smoothly overall, and I enjoyed the conference.

A great facility for big events. Very well planned event.
