What a gem! Set behind a Dunkin and CVS abutting wetlands, the Garrison surprised me. Recently updated rooms, well-appointed bathrooms, and good water pressure. Quiet. So many little touches and amenities throughout. Polite and helpful staff. And the Halloween decorations were truly extraordinary.

We love staying at the Garrison! The rooms are large, comfortable, quiet and clean. The pool was a little chilly but large and very clean. The breakfast was great - lots of options! We enjoyed the free afternoon popcorn and relaxing in the spacious lobby areas. The staff is cheerful, friendly and efficient. We’ve stayed here several times - it’s always our first choice when visiting Dover!

Best value we’ve found in the area…much nicer rooms and better breakfast than the Durham option and just a short drive to UNH. Tesla chargers right outside if you have an EV that’s compatible (unfortunately mine is not yet so I had to go 2 miles down the road to the Circle K to charge, but I’m use to that).
