What Guests Say About Cornell's Landmark Hotel

In the heart of Cornell. Excellent 👌.

In the heart of Cornell. Excellent 👌.

Every Cornell student, parent, and alumnus knows that the Statler is a gem. The views alone justifies anyone’s stay. At sunset the whole campus frame turns gold. I was in Ithaca for my dissertation defense and the hotel staff were so accommodating and encouraging. No off-campus property matches the experience. What sets the Statler apart, though, is the student staff. Every interaction, at the front desk, in the restaurant, with the valets, with in-room dining, carried the same quality (warm, attentive, quietly precise). You can feel the training, and you can also feel that they genuinely care about how the stay goes. The room itself is extremely comfortable and thoughtfully laid out, with good light and a proper work desk. The food is so many steps above hotel fare, and the cocktails are tremendous. Lastly, there is something lovely about being looked after by the next generation of hospitality leaders, on the campus where they are learning and growing into that craft. Highly recommended.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

This hotel is superb as always! The staff is super friendly and extremely efficient. The rooms are beautiful spot clean and quiet. The food options are great...from a spectacular breakfast buffet to a cozy bar for evening drinks and food while watching games on big screen TVs!
