Chris Oct 15, 2025 06:24:25 PM
Summary: Valet service was quick and professional
Gul Oct 14, 2025 10:34:46 PM
Summary: Obviously the most convenient option if you have business at Cornell, but you pay up for that. It's a nice hotel; I would say 4-star quality. Note that the "queen" beds are NYC-style; i.e. they are barely full sized, let alone queen. It's surprising to find that in a place that doesn't have the space restrictions that NYC hotels have. Even though our room (#507) was two doors down from the elevator, it was so quiet and I was never bothered by any comings and goings; I usually am. Even-numbered rooms look out towards Sage Hall and the front of the building, and probably have nicer views. The one small annoyance is there is no covered/garage parking. Not an issue in nice weather but in the winter it would suck. There is a small lot up the road that you can either self-park or valet, for $25.
Michelle Oct 13, 2025 11:29:35 AM
Summary: Very convenient to be right on Cornell campus for college tours. Very friendly staff
Michael Oct 13, 2025 02:08:12 AM
Summary: Nice hotel in the heart of Cornell’s Campus.
