This spacious venue is specifically designed to host large-scale holiday programs, offering a blend of modern hotel amenities and traditional Jewish hospitality. Conveniently located just an hour away from New York City and North Jersey, it provides an accessible escape for families looking to celebrate Passover in a professional and spiritual environment.

For the 2024 season, the hotel transforms into a vibrant hub of activity, centering on high-end culinary standards and significant rabbinic presence.

With a commitment to both physical comfort and religious observance, the facility is well-equipped to handle the unique requirements of a full Eight-day Pesach program.

About the area

Located in the heart of Fairfield County, the Armon Hotel sits in a region characterized by its suburban charm and proximity to the Long Island Sound. This area of Connecticut has long been a favored location for Jewish retreats due to its quiet atmosphere and easy accessibility from the major Jewish centers of the Northeast. The hotel’s position allows for a quick commute for residents of Rockland County, Brooklyn, and the Five Towns, making it an ideal choice for multi-generational families meeting from different states.

The property is situated within reach of various local synagogues and established Jewish communities in the Stamford and Norwalk areas. While the Pesach program is self-contained with its own Shul and religious services, the broader Fairfield County area is home to a growing Jewish infrastructure. Guests benefit from the peace of the Connecticut suburbs while remaining closely connected to the urban resources of the Tri-State area.

Being situated in the greater Tri-State area, the hotel is within an hour’s reach of major Jewish hubs such as the Five Towns, Monsey, and parts of New Jersey. This central location makes it a convenient meeting point for families coming from different directions. The surrounding Connecticut landscape also offers local attractions for children, including parks and entertainment centers, complementing the intensive on-site program.
