Location was central - walking distance to Cornell University campus and Ithaca Commons was just a 3 minute walk. Reception staff was very friendly. Check in and out were a breeze. The hotel is housed in a house and it is well decorated. Our room was big and comfortable. Parking is ample. Extra point - the unlimited supply of coffee (from a good coffee machine) and tea and snacks in the solarium.

Charming, a European style bed and breakfast with the privacy of a hotel. Very close to Cornell and 3 min drive to Collegetown. The room was comfortable and well appointed. Bed was comfortable. Water pressure was excellent in shower.Beautful sunlight in the room. Loved the cappuccino/latte machine, filtered water, free and parking right outside.

If black out curtains are important, the shades are not as dark as a traditional blackout hotel room curtain. There is no closet but there is a rack on wall with a few hangers for jacket/clothing(it’s a new trend in hotels to save space) but if you like to unpack and have a lot to hang you will be looking at it and/or be limited. Location is great, a few minutes drive to Cornell and college town. No elevator and stairwell cld be difficult for some people (but only the top floor). I didn’t mind the extra exercise.

Beautiful unique property in excellent location, minutes walk from Commons and Aurora street ( aka restaurant row). Bedding is comfortable and clean ( King size room). Area is green with multiple indoor plants and outside lanterns creating an enchanting atmosphere. Espresso based coffee machine is making excellent quality product, variety of teas and small complimentary treats, fresh fruit and filtered water are a good added value.

This was our second trip to the Argos Inn. We liked it so much we wanted to go back. It's near a busy intersection but only minutes from The Commons shopping and dining. The Cornell campus, Arboretum, and several gorges are within an easy drive, public transportation, extended walk, or hike if you like. The rooms and common areas are uniquely furnished and comfortable. The front sunroom is bright and airy with plenty of seating for couples or small groups. Snacks, fruit, great coffee and tea selections are complimentary. The full-service bar and front parlor have ample space and is often a lively focus during weekly musical events. The outdoor grounds provide space for formal and informal gatherings. The staff was most accommodating and made our stay comfortable and enjoyable! We will be back!

The location is near a busy intersection so traffic can be noisy at times. But that wouldn't keep me from booking again.

Our room was lovely and spacious; the outdoor and indoor spaces were wonderful to sit in; the staff were very helpful and friendly; the bar was fun, served delicious and inventive drinks, and shut down completely by 10:30 but was noisy til then. The location was perfect.

On the warm spring days we visited the room got stuffy. I understand why the windows in our room were enclosed with plexiglass - they are vintage and may not be easy to open and close, and guests might be forgetful.

This inn is a gem, clearly run by people who care rather than a faceless corporation. Unique touches, beautiful design, great location, friendly staff. The room was quiet and just gorgeous - we loved the fresh flowers, prints and rugs, and the nods to the historic nature of the building while still offering state of the art climate control, a multitude of streaming options and a very comfortable bed. Also appreciated all of the sustainable practices. The cocktail bar on the ground floor feels sumptuous and friendly at the same time- not an easy feat!

Just a couple of small suggestions: small bites, like fruit or croissants to accompany the morning coffee would make a big difference. The room could also use a small luggage rack or somewhere to place clothes.

The Argos Inn is a gem in Ithica. The building and property are so unique, and it's so thoughtfully decorated. The staff were all very kind, warm, and welcoming. Morning coffee in the sunlit breakfast room made for the perfect start to every morning. The beautiful bar and lounge made for the perfect night cap to end the evening. The room itself was spacious and comfortable, and had everything we would need. The Inn is conveniently located, only short walk to downtown, to the Cascadilla Gorges, and to Cornell. On-site parking made making day trips to the surrounding area seamless. If back in Ithica, there is no doubt we could come back to the Argos.

This converted mansion is charming, filled with light, art, plants, and beautiful furniture and details. The staff were welcoming and friendly and really seemed to love working in this special inn. The night we arrived there was live jazz in the outdoor patio bar in the garden - magical! Our room was comfortable and well appointed. We would love to come back, staying here was a special experience.

We really enjoyed our stay. The staff were all very friendly. We appreciated the coffee area where there was also a big table to have your own food at. The bar has some events on that were cool (and didn't go on to late). The room was nicely decorated and spacious.

We had room 101, which is fully accessible so right by the entrance. It is great that that is possible but for us it was a downside because it meant that people passed a lot and the windows went out onto the terrace where people sat and had drinks so we had the curtains closed a lot. Not a big deal but also not great for what the room cost.

It was like staying in old southern home. Warm and welcoming.

We were in the third floor. The stairs were difficult to navigate with and without luggage. We had a suite, and wished they had a sofa to spread out on in the sitting area. We were out all day hiking so it would have been nice to have more comfortable seating in the room other than the bed. After checking in, we found that the shower did not work. Ree, the evening manager, was wonderful. She upgraded us to a suite and helped us take our bags up. She was a delight.
