Top Cornell Botanic Gardens Hotel Reviews

The Springwater Inn

8/10 Good

"Nice, small hotel. Ok breakfast. Overall we got what we needed."

Ithaca Marriott Downtown on the Commons

8/10 Good

"I really wanted to give this hotel a five-star rating. Unfortunately, I was assigned a room with a connecting door, and the young guys staying next door were extremely noisy, yelling and screaming on and off until 4:00 AM. When I first complained around 1:30 AM, the front desk kindly sent up earplugs and asked the guests next door to keep their voices down. Unfortunately, they didn’t seem to care, and the noise continued. At that point, I didn’t bother calling again. My only advice to future guests is to avoid connecting rooms whenever possible, as you never know who might be staying next door. It’s unfortunate that an otherwise pleasant stay was affected by inconsiderate neighbors. I appreciated the front desk’s efforts, but it was still a very disappointing night."

The Dorm Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I loved the concept of the hotel, it has a nice and cozy ambiance. The location is conveniently near restaurants, shops and trails. I would recommend staying in this hotel."
