Winvian Again Sparkles with Two AAA Five Diamonds

Posted on February 19, 2020

Connecticut’s idyllic northwest corner continues to be the home to the state’s only sparkling ‘Diamonds’ in the ring of outstanding restaurants and lodgings that AAA recognizes annually for world-class service, facilities and amenities

 

For the 10th consecutive year, Winvian of Morris has earned two Five Diamond Awards – one for its property; the other for its restaurant.

 

An unusual 113-acre property and dining facility with 18 cottages featuring varying themes, Winvian employs an experienced highly qualified staff to provide the custom service luxury hotel guests expect by delivering unmatched guest comfort with extraordinary accommodations, personalized amenities and outstanding facilities.

 

Winvian joins eight other Litchfield and Fairfield Connecticut restaurants and accommodations that are part of AAA Northeast’s service territory that have earned AAA’s highest accolades for restaurants and lodging.

 

“These Fairfield and Litchfield County properties are truly the best of the best and we’re quite fortunate to have 10 ‘Diamonds’ right here in AAA Northeast’s own backyard,” said Fran Mayko, AAA Northeast’s spokeswoman. AAA Northeast’s territory covers Litchfield, Fairfield, and New Haven Counties.

 

In AAA Northeast’s territory, the following restaurants and hotels measure up to AAA’s 2020 Five and Four-Diamond standards. The numbers in parentheses indicate the number of years the facility has earned its Diamond rating:

Each year, AAA inspectors visit more than 60,000 properties across the United States, Canada, Mexico and the Caribbean, using the Diamond rating system to guide AAA members when choosing places to stay and eat.

 

Of the 27,000 hotels and 30,000 restaurants inspected, only 119 hotels and 67 restaurants have earned a Five Diamond designation which are known for world class luxury, amenities and leading-edge cuisine; while 1,700 hotels and 683 restaurants have earned a Four Diamond designation.
