The Hotel Ithaca, the area's only independently owned hotel, is located 6.2 miles from Ithaca Tompkins Regional Airport, with complimentary shuttle service available. Situated in the heart of Ithaca, the hotel is steps away from eclectic shopping and dining options, as well as attractions like the Downtown Conference Center, Cornell University, and Ithaca College.

Spacious & Comfortable Rooms

The 170 guest rooms and suites at The Hotel Ithaca feature oversized windows with cityscape views, plush pillow-topped mattresses, and 310-thread-count linens. ADA-equipped rooms include open-entry showers, grab bars, and granite vanities. Many rooms have been recently renovated, offering modern amenities like Keurig coffee makers and flat-screen TVs.

On-Site Dining Options

Ithaca Social Pub & Grille serves American cuisine for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, with options like omelets, burgers, and seafood. The hotel's catering team prepares diverse menus for events, from elegant sit-down dinners to take-away lunches. A complimentary coffee and tea bar is available in the lobby.

Recreation & Local Attractions

The 3-star Hotel Ithaca includes an indoor heated pool and a fully equipped fitness center. Guests can explore nearby attractions like Taughannock Falls, the Cayuga Wine Trail, and the Discovery Trail's science and nature sites. The Finger Lakes region offers year-round outdoor activities, including hiking and boating.

Event & Business Facilities

The Hotel Ithaca offers over 6000 sq ft of event space, including an impressive ballroom seating 225 guests. A dedicated sports sales manager assists athletic groups with accommodations and meal planning. Business amenities include a 24-hour front desk, meeting rooms, and complimentary high-speed Wi-Fi.

“Hotel Ithaca bills itself as independently owned in the heart of the city, but I question the execution. While the location is indeed central and the event space substantial, reports of cleanliness and service quality give me pause. For business travelers or sports teams seeking reliable comfort, I'd advise exploring other options in Ithaca.”
