I had a fantastic stay here! The hotel was clean and had great facilities, including a beautiful lobby, bar, dining room, and a patio with fire pits. The location was perfect, with Main Street just 200 feet away. It was convenient to explore this town's ambiance and enjoy a mini family reunion at the Harbor. I also loved how close the hotel was to Watkins Glen State Park, which was absolutely stunning. Additionally, the short drive to nearby wineries and breweries was a definite plus. The staff was friendly and accommodating, even upgrading my room so I could stay near my friends. The breakfast was delicious too.
Was all great.
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at this hotel. The spacious bedroom area with plenty of seating and a table was a great feature. The beds were comfortable, and the fluffy pillows provided a cozy night's sleep. The heated indoor swimming pool, hot tub, and fitness center were all easily accessible and well-maintained. Additionally, the location was perfect, with easy access to restaurants in town and many Finger Lakes attractions.
Nothing not to love.
We had a fantastic stay with breathtaking views of the lake and marina. The hotel's location was perfect, as it was within walking distance to the state park and its 19 waterfalls. The hotel staff was attentive and provided helpful suggestions for places to visit in the area. The room itself was beautiful, with hardwood floors, a large shower with great water pressure, and luxurious bedding. We also appreciated the daily coffee service outside our room in the morning, as well as the afternoon snacks and water in the lobby. the hotel facilities and cleanliness were top-notch.
All was good.
