Best Western - accommodation in Montour Falls

We recently stayed for an impromptu anniversary date and fell in love with this historic inn. When we travel we try to find places just like this and this one is probably one of the most stunning pieces of history, lovingly maintained in its original glory we’ve ever stayed at — every detail felt like a beautiful step back in time. The location is unbeatable and we ended up staying right at the inn instead of our original plans to explore the area. The grounds are beautifully maintained and the outdoor dining and fire pit seating areas kept us there for drinks, dinner, and after dinner drinks! The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Everyone was warm and helpful. We hope to make this a yearly tradition and maybe even stay in one of the rooms that are currently being added!

Honestly, it's one of my best hotel experiences so far. My wife and I stayed here for the 4th of July weekend to hit up Watkins Glen State Park, among few other Finger Lake and Falls. We didn't realize the hotel was smack in the middle of Cornell University until we arrived. We ended up doing some walks on the campus and came to realize how beautiful and neat the campus was. We really appreciated the camous location and a great view of Ithaca and the forest from an elevation. Seems like the hotel had many of the hotel management students from the university, which was interesting. The folks from the front, valet, and restaurant were all extremely courteous and professional. They were the most friendly bunch! The room was clean and spacious, and the bathroom water pressure was good. (Although our kleenex got super damp and wet for some reason). Thought the AC was a bit musky and too loud but got used to it, no problem. 2nd floor restaurant is decent and elevators pretty fast. Overall my wife and I had a very pleasant stay here and would recommend it to anyone visiting Ithaca area!

Nice for July 4th Fireworks spot !!!
