My room was on the first floor, along the road connecting the two parking lots. Very noisy. The vanity had a large crack in it, as did the ceiling above the bed. The linens were thin and yellowed at the edges. There was a connecting door to the adjacent room which was warped and couldn't be properly locked. At $200... More

Stayed here April, 2013 for a conference at Cornell. The hotel offers a free shuttle from and to the airport and to Cornell. I was fortunate to get Dannelle as my shuttle driver. She is a local and was able to share a lot of information about her hometown. The other hotel staff were quite friendly as well and were... More

I was recently stayed at Holiday Inn Downtown Ithaca for a conference at Cornell University as the Statler was sold out. The lobby is great, they offer free wi-fi and free parking on location. A shuttle if offered; but that seemed to be hit or miss. The hallway corridors are dark to dingy, the rooms are questionable and have a... More

I have stayed at this property many times over the years. Great staff and a great location. I had a room in the tower. Great view of Cornell University. Huge windows...plenty of light. Room was clean and super comfortable. Free Wi-Fi and parking. Great location near the Commons.

My husband and I have stayed here several times. We usual visit Ithaca at least once a year for the huge used book sale (visit booksale.org for more info), sometimes staying overnight, sometimes not. When we do choose to spend the night, we like the Holiday Inn for its extremely convenient location--it's right next to The Commons, and area full... More

We stayed at the Holiday Inn Downtown Ithaca the Saturday night before Easter. We had reserved a 2-Bedroom Suite, but it was not ready when we arrived to check-in. Josh was on duty at the front desk and he offered us an option so we would not have to wait...2 adjoining rooms on the first floor, and he would have... More

Picked this hotel because the location works well for Cornell and they have on site parking. Room was ok. Definitely in need if renovation. Everything feels old and worn. Luckily I had seen reviews of this hotel and got a tower room. Very tight for 4. Bathroom needs major renovation. Staff seems somewhat clueless. Asked for a rollaway when we... More

As a regular traveler to Ithaca for business, I choose this hotel due to its convenient location to downtown. Up in the morning and getting ready to shower, notice the tub is backing up so I check the drain. I pull out a chipmunk-size hair clog - unbelievable!

They stuck me in the oldest part of the hotel, the old motel-style rooms that now have an enclosed hallway to protect you from the elements. But not the cold. Room was dated, carpet too--with stains and obvious mud and dirt marks. For the most part the bathroom and room were otherwise clean. Heating unit was loud. For about the... More
