Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Ithaca

10/10 Excellent

"Room was clean, lobby was clean and inviting. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The breakfasts were great - great selection and very tasty. Parking was close to front entrance and felt safe. Bed was a little soft; I like it firm - the only negative I have."

La Tourelle Inn & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"The property is beautiful and well maintained. Our room was huge, very clean and comfortable beds/pillows. The bar/restaurant was nice and food was good. Very friendly and helpful staff.
