The room and bathroom were huge, clean and nicely decorated. It was nice having dedicated parking too. We didn’t realize that since it was end of their season, many spots were closed or only open certain days. Otherwise, we really enjoyed our stay at the Benjamin!

The property was beautiful. We loved the chalet that we stayed in, super comfy bed, beautiful views, no matter which one you stay in. Staff was very kind, helping us park our trailer, and being accommodating. Would highly recommend this little secret in Watkins Glen.

Our hosts, Charlie and Rebecca, were very gracious and gave us pointers for dinner locations. The room was very cosy and the breakfast scrumptious. Their coffee brand is worth trying even if you are not a coffee drinker

My husband and I stayed at Hotel Laurel for the weekend as it was our anniversary. We enjoy visiting the area and wineries at least once a year. The view from our room was absolutely beautiful. We had a complete view of Seneca lake and liked how close we were to downtown Watkins Glen.

Very clean, modern hotel. Breakfast is so good, with many fresh baked pastries and breakfast pizza. There is also a brewery right next door, so that is a bonus! Highly recommend.
