Excellent Service, Clean Rooms

Loved my stay here. Everyone was helpful and accommodating. I will come back again for leisure and for business. Valet was fast. Front desk was prompt and efficient. Rooms were very clean. Cornell Campus is lovely.

Wonderful hotel with friendly staff!

I spent the night at this hotel for a conference I was attending on-site. All staff were very friendly, check in was quick and the rooms were clean and spacious. Food at the bar was wonderful and the staff were helpful. It is a little pricey, but you are paying for good quality service and food. Location was wonderful for any Cornell event. Valet was affordable and the people working there were friendly, never took more than 10 minutes to get my car. Definitely recommend!

Accessible -- as long as you are not planning to sleep here!

I use a wheelchair, so I’m writing this review from that perspective. The Statler is a training facility for the Cornell University hotel school. Students learn the ropes of hotel management by working in a variety of positions from valet parking, front desk, in the restaurants. As such, service is somewhat uneven, if enthusiastic, but that’s understandable. Because of my disability, travel presents many problems. I can only walk short distances; it’s difficult for me to rise from a chair, bed, or toilet; and I’m in a fair amount of pain. I have to plan very carefully. My nightmare is being stuck someplace, far from home, unable to function. There was an important conference at Cornell that I very much wanted to attend. The Statler website is very specific about accessibility. The width of doors, accessible pathways, and details of the shower are all set out. Somewhat confident that a hotel school would portray itself accurately and even be an exemplar for commercial accommodation, I booked the two-room accessible suite. The heights of chairs, toilets, and beds are important. Too low and it is difficult or impossible to rise from them. Too high and one can’t get on them. We were told that the bed in the accessible suite was 26½ inches high. That would have been doable for me. Unfortunately, as soon I walked into the bedroom, I knew there was a problem. The bed was at my hip...

Awesome experience.

I came here last month to visit my youngest son at Cornell University after attending a conference in Columbus, Ohio. This is not my first coming to the hotel. My family and I stayed here every time we're here in Ithaca. I arrived almost after 11 pm. on Friday evening night and all the staff were very attentive and helpful. My room didn't have to view, which I didn't mind, and I already expected it because the hotel is packed that weekend because of an event going on at the hotel. The bed was comfortable, and the room was large enough.
