Good place too stay for anything you need to do in Watkins Glen or surrounding areas and beautiful views.
Eric, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We enjoyed our stay at the hotel, the view of the lake each morning was very nice. The room was large and the beds were comfy. The hotel is very close to Watkins Glen State Park.

Beautiful, clean, lake view balcony room

Staff is friendly and helpful. Room is spacious and clean. You can’t beat the view from the balcony. Highly recommend
Amanda, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great stay!

While the room was basic, all the amenities we could need were available. It was extemely clean and comfortable and the view from our balcony was beautiful. Having a lounge and restaurant with views was an added bonus. Very friendly staff.
Linda, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Clean, cozy room with a beautiful balcony. We also loved the communal deck space, which has a gorgeous view of the lake. We used the tables during the day and the fire tables at night.
Kristen, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The view of Seneca Lake was spectacular—a quaint, hidden gem.
Bill, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good, but expensive

It is an older hotel, but renovated. It was pretty good, but not worth the $136 plus it cost.
Kimberly, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Nice updated motel with great views

We (two adults two younger kids) came to Watkins Glen for race weekend and this was one of the last places available. We lucked out! This is a clean, comfortable motel with excellent views of Seneca Lake. Kudos to the new owners for breathing new life into the property. If we're back for another race we'll be back.
Casey, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful place to stay right on Seneca Lake. Friendly staff and clean room.

Earl, 1-night trip

Nice hotel

Hotel was just right. Had a great view of the lake and was easy to get places-but had to drive to all locations. Not a walkable area
Jill, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Rooms looked out to the Lake. Friendly staff that were helpful.
Rebecca, 2-night trip

We booked the junior sweet which was perfect for the two of us. Room was very clean, beautiful view of the lake.
Cassandra, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful property by the lake. Will stay again.
Heajeong, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The exterior of the hotel was a little worn but the room was clean and comfortable. We were disappointed that the deluxe queen room was on the ground floor and the lake view was obstructed by parked cars. It looked like rooms above us had a great view of the lake.
Dean, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Perfect view of lake from both room and restaurant. Friendly staff.
michael, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Clean, affordable and the most beautiful view of the lake from the private deck. Hosts were friendly and accommodating. Close enougj to everything! Looking forward to another visit
Kathleen, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great view!

The hotel and restaurant were good and in a very convenient location. The views were great! Our room was on the lower building in the back, while the room was clean the space next to it was not updated and appeared to be a work area.
Angela, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Stayed for 2 nights. The 2 room king was perfect as we had friends also staying at the hotel. After a day of visiting breweries, we were all able to get together and end the day hanging out in the living room. View of the lake was amazing and the location is perfect.
Steven, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The room was clean, the bed was comfortable, but the covers were thin with no additional blanket. The views were beautiful- This place has huge potential if the owners paid a bit more attention to the overall property appearance and the restaurant quality
Room view with outdoor seating
pamela, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great view of the lake on the balcony. Very private, clean and well appointed room. Parking was convenient and short drive to downtown shopping. The breakfast was very good at the inn, I would recommend for a reasonably priced motor inn in Watkins Glen.
Lorraine, 2-night trip
