Great stay, not-so-great rate.

Experience was great, but at $250 for a single night, it was very expensive. See full review

Don't get room you asking for

I was disappointed after confrimed with the hotel so many times before I arrived that I would arrive late at night and requested to stay in a non smoke room. They still put me in the smoking room and lie to me that it is a non smoking room!!!!!!!!. The smoking was so strong. I requested to change the roon right away but there was no room avialable!!!!! They just came to the room and sprey the refreshener. I found out myself in the morning Tthat this was a smoking room and request to move to the other room. Other than that the hotel is good

Fantastic Hotel

It was one of the best suites we have ever stayed in. It was more expensive than other hotels in the area, but we did not spend a penny more while we were there, because of the free breakfast and afternoon buffet. My husband and 5 year old granddaughter had the pool and hot tub to themselves, the rooms were beautiful and immaculate. Full kitchen with coffee set up and even popcorn.

I'll be back!!!!!

After picking my daughter up from ASTA string camp we stayed in Ithaca to play, and what a great time we had! The hotel was fantastic - the room was spacious and beautiful. The staff was very attentive to our needs, and the gem of a surprise was the complimentary meals!!!! Breakfst included 3 hot chafing dishes and other yummies....and the evening meal was also delicious. If that wasn't enough, we had a choice of wine or beer with the dinner meal! And all complimentary!!! I don't know how they do it - and all at a comparable price to the other 'hotels' in town. We joined the Hilton Honor program before we departed --- because we will most definetly be back next year!

Take a trail ride with Cayuga Lakeside Stables!! It was the most naturally authentic trail ride we have ever been on! They don't try to cram you into a large group ride.....it was just me and my daughter!

Homewood suites

Clean and quiet room. Good use of space. Kitchenette with dishes and POPCORN! Plus the weekday dinner and AM breakfast meals What more can you want when traveling on business? As a vegetarian traveller--I would have liked more vegetarian meal choices. Fortunately, the Moosewood restaurant wasn't too far away by car.
