Top Ithaca Hotel Reviews

The Springwater Inn

The Springwater Inn

8/10 Good
"Room was super clean and modern. Staff were friendly. We were 5 minutes from the Cornell Botanical Gardens/Dairy Bar. (On the more rural part of Ithaca, but 10-12 minutes from downtown by car). Breakfast was free but very basic. Two kinds of cereal, whole milk, white bread, white bagels, mini blueberry muffins. yogurt, bananas and condiments. I would definitely stay there again if we were in the area, although it would be great to have a few more options at breakfast."
