La Tourelle Inn & Spa

8/10 Good

"Breakfast could be better. Inconsistent menu items each day with little oversight to restock."

Inn at Taughannock Falls

10/10 Excellent

"Our room wasn’t quite ready for us at check-in time, but Shelby managed the delay well by offering us a complimentary drink at the bar. While the breakfast staffing was a bit minimal, but they were super nice and efficient. The South Forest room was cute and clean, and the temp control was perfect. All around nice stay for three nights."

The Springwater Inn

8/10 Good

"When you first pull in, you might second guess your decision. Our room was really spacious and beautifully updated. Check in was easy and friendly. I always appreciate a breakfast offering even if it isn’t anything elaborate. We stayed for two nights and my grandfather ended up booking his own room separate but they were able to give us rooms next to each other and on the first level! I found the location convenient with plenty of parking and it was all around a great stay! My only complaint was the beds themselves were really hard. There was a little bounce but it reminded me more of sleeping on a futon mattress. For short stays I would absolutely return but if I were staying for more than I few nights I might need a softer bed. In Ithaca we loved the museum of the earth, Milkstand restaurant and visiting Cascadilla gorge and the Cornell botanical gardens! Thank you for the great stay!"

Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Ithaca

8/10 Good

"Hotel was situated in a good stop. Close drive to Robert Treman State Park. You can walk to Buttermilk State Park. Close drive to Watkins Glen Falls State Park. Close to Cornell Botanical Gardens and Ithaca town. Rooms were clean, staff were helpful. Breakfast was good. Just thought it was silly that they charged $4.17 plus tax for parking. Overall my stay was good."
