Cheap Hotels in Bridgeport

The city of Bridgeport is located in the Southwest part of the state of Connecticut, and is the city with the largest population. One of the reasons for the large population is the city’s proximity to New York City, making it something of a bedroom community for the businesses in New York. Additionally, it is located on the coast of Connecticut, making it a pleasant place to visit as well as live. Because of this, there are a few cheap hotels in Bridgeport you can choose from.

To be perfectly accurate, only one of the cheap hotels in Bridgeport is actually within the city of Bridgeport – other than that, there are several cheap hotels in nearby towns which make getting to and from Bridgeport (not to mention New York City) easy. If the Bridgeport hotel is full, check the nearby cities of Stratford and Fairfield. Bridgeport was once part of Stratford, and parts of the area were also once part of Fairfield – so you may not even notice that you have gone from one city to another.

The main tourist attractions in Bridgeport are the Klein Memorial Auditorium and the Barnum Museum. The Klein Memorial Auditorium is not exactly a tourist attraction in and of itself, but there are regular concerts and performances held there which make it the cultural hub of the city. The Barnum Museum celebrates Bridgeport’s most famous son, circus founder P.T. Barnum, and is right in downtown Bridgeport. Additionally, the city has several parks and beaches along the coast, and is within easy day-trip distance of New York City.
