I have stayed at the Statler 3 times while visiting the campus. I have consistenly been impressed with the positive attitude of every student I've encountered working there. They want to satisfy you. During my most recent stay they upgraded me to a top floor room with sweeping views of the campus and Lake Cayuga beyond. I was moving my... More

This is the training hotel for students at the School of Hotel Administration. The students are bright and enthusiastic and try to be as helpful as possible. The food is quite good and the rooms are nice and very functional. The gym could be expanded, but you can pay a small fee and use the more extensive school gyms nearby.... More

Although this is not a 5 star hotel we were extremely impressed by the positive attitude and great service by the staff/college students. A bit pricey for the area but enjoyed stay and extremely convenient if you are visiting your kids at Cornell.

We stayed at the Statler Hotel at Cornell to take a campus tour. The Hotel is an excellent location to tour campus and to walk to "college town" for morning bagels. It is convenient to have valet parking and be centrally located to tour campus. The room was average size. It wasn't too small nor too large. It had a... More

Everything about our stay at the Statler surpassed our expectations, other than the slightly dated rooms, but they were clean and comfortable, and the service more than made up for the lack of luxury in the accoutrements. Everyone we encountered provided A+ service -- can't think of a hotel on earth where we have had better service, from the check-in... More

The hotel is run by the School of Hotel Administration. First rate service and gourmet food in their restaurant, Taverna. Stayed there b/c my son is a student there. It can be very difficult to get a reservation when there are key sporting events or graduation, etc., but if you can plan ahead it is well worth it. Many/most staff... More

Love that it's location is convenient to the Cornell campus. Love that the students from the Hotel school run it. Coffee is wonderful. Food is good. However, this is not a luxury hotel. Perhaps only when compared with other choices in ithaca. the rooms are clean and nicely decorated, but small and lacking the details that are expected at luxury... More

The Statler is centrally located on the Cornell University campus and provides excellent service and comfort. It is a thrill to witness the array of undergraduate students from the Hotel School managing many aspects of your stay. The food is delicious and attention is paid to helpful details like specific directions to events/locations. The rooms are lovely and the beds... More

My daughter and I recently stayed one night at the Statler Hotel during a campus visit. Upon our check-in we were met by several very helpful and friendly staff members. The valet was first to greet us, he allowed us to leave our car at the curb while we checked-in and gathered our suitcases. He was also very helpful and... More
