The Statler Hotel at Cornell University - Ithaca

The Statler is a luxurious way to enjoy all Cornell University has to offer. We were in town for an event on campus. Everything runs like clockwork here. Park with the valet then walk everywhere. The rooms are spacious and the beds are incredibly comfortable. Don't miss the stuffed French toast at breakfast. Yum!

This was a visit to Cornell on a college visit, which I highly recommend. The hotel is located in the center of campus so it is very convenient. It is a bit more expensive than alternatives off-campus, but for a day visit well worth it. The restaurant was excellent.

Excellent stay. Staff was amazing - cheerful, fun and enthusiastic.

Wonderful welcoming staff. The hotel has all of the amenities you expect from a large business hotel, but with the staff of a delightful B&B.

Hotel is actuallu on the Cornell University campus. Clean and very well run. Restaurants were good, one main and one cafeteria style that is mainly for the students at Cornell University.

Statler is probably one of the better hotels available in Ithaca. The other hotels close to Cornell are all old and in dire need of a re-do.

The wall-mounted hair dryer stopped working at regular intervals. I had to press the reset and test buttons multiple times to get it working again each time. Queen beds would be better than double beds, but you get what you pay for, I suppose.

We stayed at the Statler when my daughter graduated from Cornell University. The hotel was just across the street from Barton Hall where graduation ceremonies were held. The staff were very polite and attentive to our every need. The rooms were immaculate. We met friends and played games in the lounge the night before graduation. It was a perfect place […] to get together. Valet parking was the bomb. Would love to stay here again. Highly recommend. Read more

I spent two nights there last week. (I was between business engagements upstate.) The room is perfectly set up for working. All the trappings of a 5-star hotel, including Frette towels. Great view of campus out my window. Walking distance to Collegetown and its many restaurants. The hotel is run by students who are so eager to please and is overseen […] by Cornell's world-class hotel school. I cannot recall a more pleasant hotel experience. Read more

Even my English is not as fluently as English speeker, the Steller Hotel's staff still friendly and patiently to help me out, even though the transportation is a little bit complicated but the Steller Hotel shuttle Bus still help us to college town to catch up short line bus. I like the whole environment is so peaceful and quiet even during the heater […] is working. The Steller Hotel inside the Cornell central campus therefore I can easily walk around to explore the whole campus. Read more

The stay at The Statler Hotel at Cornell University was one of the best experiences I've had as hotels go. The attention to detail and service was what made the difference. The food at their restaurant, breakfast, lunch and dinner, was amazing. Nothing overly complicated, just good food! Very nice and helpful staff. Would definitely stay here again […] . Read more

Have a student at Cornell so this is the most convenient and nicest place to stay when visiting. Have stayed several times with varying condition of room and cleanliness. This time was exceptionally clean and room was in great condition. Didn't have much interaction with staff except valet, and they were all very accomodating and helpful.

Simply the best hotel in the Ithaca area!

Good, solid hotel experience with an on campus location great for walking. VERY helpful staff. Not an abundance of luxury amenities. I had a very nice room with a view of the clock tower, town, and lake in the background.

The room was nice, the renovated Regents lounge has a new look, and the hotel service remains quite good.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Most convenient for a visit to Cornell University. Beautiful views from a comfortable room. All appointments in the room were clean and appeared new. The staff more than made up in numbers and enthusiasm for any small service issues related to on-the-job training by the students who run the hotel.

The Statler Hotel is a wonderful place to stay. The convenience of the location to the school is incredible. The hotel staff was very friendly and the room was very nice. The bed was one of the best I've ever slept in - I didn't want to get up! The only downside was that the internet was spotty & I kept getting booted off, but it could have been because […] of the storm. Additionally, the hotel restaurant was great! Very nice decor and delicious, sizable portions. I look forward to my next stay. Read more

I would have given the hotel a "5" overall except that the fitness room was somewhat lacking, and I didn't really expect to have to pay for parking. But the hotel is scrupulously clean and the students that work there are anxious to please. My view from my room was spectacular!

Friendly, welcoming and professional staff. Beautiful view from our 3rd floor room. Comfortable beds.

If you want to visit Cornell and can afford the rate, the Statler is the place to stay. Everything was perfect, with one exception. We were in a room with a door connecting us to the adjacent room, and we could hear their television through the door/wall. Thankfully they went to bed at a decent hour...

Moved our daughter into Ithaca College and stayed overnight. We had a lovely stay. Clean hotel, beautiful upscale decor. Great view of Cornell's campus.

Our family of four had a lovely stay. The hotel staff is accommodating and friendly, the hotel is pristinely clean and quite pretty, great location to Ithaca College, our room was spacious with a gorgeous mountain and campus view. The beds were very comfortable, the bathroom was clean and nicely-appointed both in decor and amenities. The restaurant […] was pretty good, a bit pricey, with solicitous waiter. The name of the restaurant sounds Italian, but the food is definitely not. The refrigerator was ineffective, (used oil? vs. freon, per the nice visiting electrician), so we had to use an ice bucket in the fridge to keep things coolish. No freezer to re-chill icepacks for travel. A significant charge to park in garage. Priciest hotel out of 4 on our college-visit week, but a treat nonetheless. Read more

If you are visiting Cornell University, staying on campus at the Statler Hotel is the way to go. It is not only convenient but reasonably priced and the service, provided in large part by student's at Cornell's hotel school, is top-notch.

Hotel is located in the heart of Cornell University & has amazing views. Easy to get into town, although not walking distance. Room size was average and not new by any means, but comfortable.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Beautiful rooms. However, the internet service cut out after 10PM and the room would not get cool enough (July visit). Front desk personnel (students) made zero effort to "make it right" at checkout. Waiving the valet parking charge would have been nice.

Wonderful

The room was very comfortable. The staff was very pleasant and helpful with directions, recommendations and special food accommodations.

On our East coast college tour, my daughter and I stayed in many hotels. This was her favorite by far. To top it off, it is run by the students.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

We had a nice stay here, albeit a short one. For a hotel managed almost completely by students (as the top hotel management school, part of Cornell University, uses this hotel to train students), I was quite impressed. The valet service (which I could've done without) was a little scant and confused, but the desk service was exceptional and the room […] (a recently renovated king with a view) was quite nice. An easy walk to anything on or near the southern or central part of campus and very easily walkable to Collegetown destinations. Read more

It was a great place to stay. The room was very clean, beds where comfortable and the food was fantastic. a lot of the staff where Cronell students who are taking classes in the hotel industry so they were extremely polite and energetic. Tom

We went to Cornell for a college visit and were so glad we splurged a bit and stayed at the Statler Hotel. It is a step away from admissions, the bookstore and the rest of campus is easily accessible. The food was wonderful and the accommodations were clean and comfortable. We were also able to speak with students about student life, etc. The students […] were very professional and we had excellent service. Great choice! Read more

If you're visiting or have business on Cornell's campus, the location is definitely convenient. Within easy walking distance of Collegetown, but a little further walk for downtown Ithaca. I stayed with my teenage son during a recent college tours trip. Front desk was very friendly. Valet service was quick. Room was comfortable and clean -- including […] a recycling bin! Only slight drawbacks were shower (water poured from faucet while shower was running so tub fills up -- just a pet peeve), only 2 pillows on each bed (I'm sure I could have requested more but didn't bother), and we were unable to grab a quick breakfast on Sunday morning. The only option was a $20+ brunch buffet. The other restaurant was closed on Sundays. However, we stopped by College Town Bagels on our way out, and it was perfect. Read more
