Guest Reviews
- Kiersten (10/5): - Central location; great atmosphere; nice staff
- Gary (8/5): - On site parking was plentiful. Short walk to good restaurants and bars. The property is situated on a heavy traveled road and traffic could be heard throughout the night.
- Courtney (10/5): - Wonderful setting and even more wonderful staff. Can't wait to stay again. Couldn't ask for a more convenient location.
- Evan (10/5): - Loved this hotel for the price, decor and access to downtown Iticha. The The tv was also very nice and had access to all of the apps with a good sound system. The live jazz on Wednesday is also a plus. Another nice thing is the coffee maker. All in all this hotel is one of the best I have stayed in.
- Eric (4/5): - The Argos Inn was a big disappointment, as was the town of Ithaca. The man that greeted us at check-in had no sense of hospitality and seemed totally blasé; that put a damper on our stay. The room, vastly overpriced, was small and noisy, due to the loud patrons from the downstairs bar and the lack of soundproofing. Overall, the inn lacks charm and character, and has zero amenities. It parallels the center of the town unfortunately and a sense of urban decay floats in the air. Don't waste your time and money...
- Lynn (10/5): - The bar staff were excellent!
- Timothy (10/5): - Charming
- Diane (10/5): - Lovely Inn with beautiful rooms. Loved the atmosphere, enjoyed the bar and the jazz trio!
- Kelly (10/5): - Beautiful, unique property with a great vibe, comfy beds and beautifully appointed rooms!
- joanne (10/5): - Lovely, quaint and sustainable. Cool theme.
- solange (10/5): - Best hotel in Ithica Will stay again !
- Gretchen (10/5): - Beautiful space and tasty cocktails! Great coffee in the morning.
- Richard (10/5): Great - Great place. Really comfortable room with great character. Friendly staff and great location.
- Pete (10/5): - Loved the quaintness of the spot.
- Debbie (10/5): - The staff were extremely welcoming and helpful during out stay, even though they were working on the Christmas holiday.
- Barbara (10/5): - The Argos is a unique property and was a wonderful place to meet with family and friends. Staff were friendly and offered information about the property.
- Mark (10/5): - A quaint little getaway. Can't wait to go back. I wish they had informed us about their other venue next door. Very sad we missed that opportunity.
- Christina (8/5): - I really want to love Argos. Truly a wonderful concept. Visited last year and had a lovely stay so decided to repeat it. It was noisy. Partially from thumping music from next door, possibly. Partially from an inconsiderate group of people who were having a very loud conversation outside after 1am that went on for about an hour. The next morning, while enjoying coffee in the sunroom, I heard the laugh that I heard in the very early morning from outside. Turns out that it was an employee. How disappointing . They should know better than to be that disruptive.
- Rose (10/5): - Very unique, attractive, lots of character, walkable.
- Alexandra (8/5): - Stayed one night at Argos Inn during my first visit to Ithaca. Positives: very cool quirky decor in a historic building. The renovation was completed with high quality materials and thoughtful touches like the solarium self-serve coffee bar. Room was very clean! there is a lot with free parking. Negatives: I was assigned a room on the first floor, and it was extremely loud. This included bar noise during operation and dishwashing, guests in hallway, and all noise from guests beside and above me (coughing, walking, etc.) this is probably due to thin walls but also doesn’t help that the room door has a gap. Peacock room did not have a mini-fridge unfortunately. I would stay at Argos again, if guaranteed different room in a quieter location. I did relay this to the desk on checkout, and they recommend room 303 as the quietest.
- Karol (10/5): - Beautiful property and hotel, excellent location, wonderful staff… The vibe of the hotel, bar and warehouse is super eclectic and cool. Walking distance to so many things and easy in and out with the parking. We will definitely be back for another stay here. Thank you to everyone!
- Markus (10/5): - Absolutely lovely stay. Cannot recommend highly enough.
- Scott (10/5): - The Argos was built during the civil and it feels historical from the street. The Inn is beautiful and the staff was very helpful. Danielle at the front desk was instrumental in helping us find some breakfast, lunch, and dinner options that were superb. She was always interested in what we had seen and done each day which made it feel like coming home. The backyard outdoor bar is amazing and the Wednesday Night Jazz Trio was excellent. They paired very well with the pizza that we purchased from the truck on site. Great hotel, a little quirky, but well worth the stay!
- olga (10/5): - It's absolutely a hidden gem. The front desk employees are very friendly. The building is a beautiful historic building with high-end touches everywhere. The rooms are renovated and spacious. The beds are super comfortable. There is a very cozy bar on the premises. The beautiful breakfast room serves delicious coffee and snacks. Would love to return.
- Tina (6/5): - The hotel is cool! Artsy cool vibes which we loved. Service at the front desk was good but when we went to the bar on the rooftop it was HORRIBLE! The guy behind the bar looked like he didn't want to be there at all and couldn't even give a little smile. I waited to be served at my table which was dirtyand asked if it was possible to please have it cleaned and he replied that i could sit elsewhere because they were understaffed (which they clearly weren't) i had to go to the bar and ask for my drink because no one was serving us. I also had a hard time joining someone at the reception by phone.... took a bunch of tries to ask them about the air conditioning that wasn't working properly. I wouldn't go back and wouldn't recommend.
- Melanie (10/5): - The hotel was super cute, had a great bar vibe, delicious coffee, was centrally located, and had amazingly kind, knowledgeable, and accommodating staff.
- David (10/5): - Beautiful space like I imagined
- Georgy (10/5): - Beautiful, cozy, relaxing
- James (10/5): - Unique boutique hotel, great helpful staff, room was great, enjoyed the cocktail bar! Would recommend it as the place to stay in Ithaca!
- Andrew (10/5): - Just a wonderful place. A place that you can see creativity and heart was put into it, not another cookie cutter corporate bland hotel. The price and value was great. The beds and room was comfortable, the bar was fun, and the coffee in the morning was nice to have. Thank you
- alyson (10/5): - Such a beautiful property. The outside bar with specialty cocktails was a nice touch. The morning, coffee and espresso bar in the sunroom were exactly what I needed! So quaint and charming. I would definitely go back. Walls are thin. Rooms can be a little noisy.
- Gina (10/5): - I loved this inn!
- robert (10/5): - Great property and staff. Available parking. Close to dining on The Commons.
- David (10/5): - Very nice and hip place
- Tom (10/5): - Stayed 2 nights in June. Beautiful building in a great location. Staff was helpful and amazing. Patio space is a cool place to hang out in the evenings and coffee here is great. Definitely recommend.
- Dan (10/5): - A delightful experience.
- Brandon (10/5): - Thank you!
- James (10/5): - Very unique property and would have liked to spend more than one night
- Jesse (10/5): - Gorgeous!!
- Gretchen (10/5): - Great spot!
- James (6/5): Noisy open bar - If you hope to sleep before 10:30 PM be advised that the bar "for guests" is not just for hotel guests. It is very noisy until the very public bar shuts down. Quiet hours were stated in the in-room guide and seemed to be enforced. But full disclosre ahead of booking would have been nice.
- Ariel (10/5): Great overnight stay - The Argos Inn is a delight. The rooms are beautifully appointed. The shower is great. I like that the floor was heated.
- Harpaul (10/5): - Excellent service, spacious room, wonderful bar but no dining facilities. Will definitely stay again.
- Alice (10/5): - It was beautifully decorated everywhere on the property. The room was cozy and lovely as well.
- Elisabeth (10/5): - I loved this beautiful inn in the heart of Ithaca and all the staff were very nice and responsive people.
- Gregory (10/5): - As you might expect from a boutique hotel, the staff was extremely gracious, cordial, and helpful. Our room was one of the smaller ones but just right for a two-night stay; nicely appointed, updated, and attractive. One of the best features is a room adjacent to check-in with a large table and a top of the line Jura coffee and espresso machine. I could have stayed there all day. Five minutes away from a nice shopping area with interesting shops and second-hand bookstores.
- Shannon (10/5): - We have stayed at the stylish, elegant and comfortable Argos Inn a number of times, and in several different rooms, and it is always a treat!
- Jesse (10/5): - A lovely property. Wonderful public spaces, large lovely rooms. Really a lot of character. Nice focus on sustainability - recycling, real glass and no plastic anywhere. On-site parking. Just steps to downtown and restaurants. Two points to note. First, the Argos has a very lively and charming bar. The ambiance and drinks are excellent, but the noise levels can be high in the rooms, until closing time at 10:00 am. Second, while there is excellent coffee and tea available 24/7 (a very fancy Jura machine that makes excellent cappuccinos), there is no breakfast. Plenty of places to walk to, but nothing on-site.
- Leah (10/5): - What a lovely guest house. We enjoyed our stay and the proximity to downtown.
- Melanie (10/5): - Staff is very friendly and attentive. Coffee was delicious. Bar area is lovely, and all the amenities and furnishings are well-appointed.
- Elizabeth (10/5): - Great location and wonderful ambience! Staying during the week days was especially fun with the jazz night on Wednesday!
- Debbie (10/5): - The sun room and coffee in he morning were wonderful!!!
- Michael (4/5): Eh. - This property did not meet expectations for a few reasons: 1) the hotel felt more like a “bar with rooms upstairs” than a “hotel with a bar”. While the bar closed at 10:00PM…there was loud talking and laughing until near 10:45PM. 2) the room was quite small with barely enough room to open suitcases and maneuver. 3). The grounds were muddy and not impressive…including an unpaved parking lot. 4) Lastly, while the room was clean, my wife found the pillow to be too firm and not sleep-worthy.
- Joseph (10/5): Absolutely Lovely - One of the best Boutique hotels i ever stayed at, Very clean, beautiful rooms with a personal touch, excellent personable staff, and the specialty drinks they created were absolutely perfect. Will definitely stay here again.
- Danilo (10/5): - The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. The furnishings and fixtures were tasteful and functional. We especially appreciated the heated floors and the versatile shower hardware. Having the bar downstairs was fun and convenient. It was an intimate yet lively space. There would sometimes be a live band performing and it was nice being able to sit and listen in cozy sofas and armchairs. The bartenders served up some interesting and tasty drink options, both alcoholic and nonalcoholic. The staff was friendly and helpful. We also enjoyed the solarium room and the self-serve coffee machine. It was a delight being able to choose from a variety of options, including cappuccino, cafe macchiato, cafe latte, and espresso, all at the push of a button. They even provided teas and orange choice in small mini fridge next to the coffe maker. Every morning, we’d walk to the local deli down the street and pick up some breakfast items to take back and enjoy with our coffee and juice in the solarium, before we’d head off on our adventures for the day. The inn was conveniently located close to downtown and Ithaca Commons, so we rarely had to drive anywhere, except to visit the many state parks and wineries in the area. Overall, we had a very pleasant stay and would highly recommend The Argos Inn to anyone coming out to Ithaca and the Cayuga/Seneca Lake area
- Ed (8/5): - Interesting place! Old world charm with trendy decor and drink menu. A couple quirky room things (light bulb out, remote wouldn't turn TV on) and felt the hall door to overnight guest area should have been locked during bar hours. Also wish bartenders were able to make off-menu drinks (espresso available in solarium, martini on the menu, but can't make espresso martinis???). Staff was friendly and responsive. Walkable to Ithaca Commons. Overall, a great option when staying in Ithaca!
- Donna (10/5): - Staff and service were first-rate. The bar on the first floor was convenient and cozy. Our room was clean, spacious, and comfortable. Staff made every effort to accommodate requests. There is no elevator, but front staircase is solid, has a good bannister, and is not too steep; for most, it can be navigated without too much effort. Outdoor yard at hotel and next door event area can use landscaping and trimming, and due to current road construction in the area, getting in and out of the parking lot sometimes requires maneuvering. However, parking is right outside the door, and there is a nice lighted area on the patio and in the back for enjoying drinks and conversation. This is an older property that is generally well-maintained and offers plenty of amenities like complimentary coffee, tea, cocoa and goodies - and a microwave - always available in the solarium on the first floor, and freshly-picked flowers every day. It is immaculately clean and retains an old-world charm that makes staying there a pleasure. In addition, it is within walking distance to shopping, entertainment, and a wide variety of dining choices. It is near waterfalls, gorges, museums and colleges, with nearby Cornell University offering a gorgeous arboretum and well-maintained botanical garden as part of its horticultural program. There was more to do than could ever be done, and we loved it all! Argos has become an old friend, and we hope we can return before long!
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Very clean, pleasant staff great bar
- Verified traveler (6/5): Meh - They are understaffed, so we had some trouble getting the keys and getting checked in (we arrived just a little after 8 pm and they didn't have anyone available after 7 pm, and calls to the On-Call Manager were not answered). Once we did get in, the room smelled very musty and was a bit dusty. We understand it's an older property, but we didn't feel it was as well maintained or cleanly as it could be. Frankly, we were very unimpressed, couldn't understand why it has higher ratings, and wouldn't recommend staying here.
- David (10/5): - solid place, great bar
- Elaine (10/5): Beautiful historic hotel - Amazing stay! Beautifully decorated historic hotel. Great service too. When they were told by the city that we would lose water they gave us lots of extra bottles of water and sent us notifications. They also gave us a discount. Turns out the water didn’t actually get shut off.
- Camille (8/5): - It was clean and quiet. Newer air conditioners was efficient and not too noisy. There should be mini fridges in each room. The desk clerk could have been a little more helpful/knowledgeable for directions, etc.
- Bailey (10/5): - The Inn itself was amazing! We loved the unique decor, we had a great time enjoying the bar outside at night and then had a quiet cup of coffee in the beautiful, sunny sunroom in the morning. The only thing that wasn't perfect was the bed, which we both found uncomfortable; the mattress was quite stiff and the pillows were small and not supportive. But other than the bed we loved everything and would stay again (but would choose a different room and hope for a better bed)!
- Elaine (10/5): Beautiful stay with top excellent service - Beautiful hotel with vintage furnishings.
- Jaki (10/5): - The Argos Inn was a wonderful stay. The rooms are comfortable and homey and the lobby bar was a great space to hang out. We also had drinks in their Warehouse bar space across the parking lot which was a lot of fun. Its all in easy walking distance to the Commons -- would definitely stay here again. Thanks!
- michael (10/5): - Excellent stay
- Terry (10/5): - Fantastic feel and decor.
- Corey (10/5): - Pretty, inviting and great ambiance
- Lauren (8/5): Would have been 5 Stars but... - Overall the Inn and service were top-notch, with the only exception being the $30 charge for the Daybed linens. On the Hotel.com site, they only say there is a charge for a rollaway bed/cart, the daybed was the reason I book that specific room.
- mahrina (10/5): - Beautiful & reminiscent of a beautiful bygone era with modern conveniences
- Richard (10/5): Amazing Architecture - Beautiful old building that has been modernized. I really enjoyed my stay. The architecture is amazing with 12 feet high ceilings in every room. Winding staircases, plenty of sitting rooms. We enjoyed exploring the place while having a nice glass of wine.
- Kimberly (10/5): Quaint, Unique Inn in Funky Upstate NY Town! - I absolutely love the Argos Inn! This was my 2nd time staying there, and I want to come back again! It is quaint, adorable, and the staff are really great! I love the little bar inside, and the drinks are yummy! I highly recommend the Argos Inn!
- Mahkameh (10/5): - Argos Inn exceeded our expectation in all areas. This historic building was very tastefully renovated and decorated and the rooms and the common areas were simply beautiful and cozy. The outdoor area and the bar was multi level and settled in the woods. Service was perfect. We will only rebook this inn when we travel to Ithaca in the future.
- Ken (10/5): - Terrific place. Will stay there again.
- Emiko (10/5): - So precious. Such attention to details for both the space and service. Fantastic styling in and surrounding the beautiful building. Felt welcomed and super comfortable, I loved everything, especially having a latte in the sunny solarium in the morning. (Ok, actually had 3 cuz it was so nice to be there :D) Enjoyed a creative cocktail at the wonderful outdoor bar on a nice summer night, too. Can't wait to stay again!
- Kevin (10/5): - Wonderful inn. Gracious staff in well designed spaces.
- David (10/5): - Everything I've already listed. I would ask that Argos supply sufficient clothing hangers.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Right in downtown - Place was nice and unique. Bar downstairs served interesting drinks.
- Ashley (6/5): - The property and hotel are beautiful! However, your room is right above a bar! It is LOUD! They had a private event on Friday, so we’re not allowed downstairs - would like to have known this when booking! There is zero hotel safety anyone can walk in or walk up stairs they do not check! We found random people hanging out upstairs in the common area. Parking is limited when they have a function. Loud guests after 2am and staff does nothing to quiet them. You can hear every noise throughout this whole inn. Save your money and book at the Marriott down the street
- Timothy (8/5): - A lively interesting place easy to walk to grab a bite and easy to get in and out of town.
- Patricia (10/5): - Argos Inn was a totally unique, super-cool place to stay. We loved it. Everything was perfect - communication, decor, ease of check in/out, cleanliness...truly a remarkable place to stay.
- Amelia (6/5): Chic but loud first floor rooms - This hotel is absolutely amazing in almost every way. The rooms are chic, the outside space is beautiful, the bar is fabulous. On-site parking is very convenient. The only downside to the place is the rooms on the first floor. The outside bar is located right outside the windows and therefor make it very loud at night until the bar closes. If you don’t mind staying awake until midnight, otherwise make sure to book a room on the second floor.
- Mark (8/5): - If you love old victorian ambience, this is the place for you. I recommend it for a romantic stay, or if you a re a solo business traveller. Each room is unique, and if you value your bathroom experience, I find the rooms to be super clean, and the showers exceptional for a hotel. The place is quiet, the staff is friendly but reserved.
- William (10/5): - A beautifully restored home! The room was clean and very comfortable with beautiful period details. I can't wait for the bar downstairs to open!
- Elizabeth (10/5): - Every detail was considered. Beautifully designed and so charming.
- Oleksandr (10/5): - Very unique, clean and nicely located-some two minutes walk to Ithaca downtown, about 4 to State Theater. Surrounded by all kinds of dining-from Domino’s to expansive lounge bars. Very relaxing atmosphere in the room and lobby. Height-end appliances and furniture.
- Marilyn (10/5): I shall return - Lovely room, nice staff and 24 hour access to coffee, tea, and hot cocoa. The bar in the inn was closed for now but there's a cozy bar on the other side of the parking lot.
- rosemary (10/5): argos inn - wonderful - Argos Inn was beautiful. Rooms were very comfortable. Exactly what you would expect. The coffee and treats were amazing - I would highly recommend to anyone traveling to Ithaca
- Fred (10/5): Great classy hotel - Fantastic classic hotel in a beautiful old mansion. Lots of nice touches.
- Anina (10/5): - Everything! Great style
- sheila (10/5): Great place to stay in downtown Ithaca - High quality as always. We’ll stay here again next time we’re in town. Our favourite Ithaca hotel.
- Robert (8/5): - Beautiful place, very cool. Noisy, especially since the heating/AC was being replaced and we had to open a window to get the temperature down from 88.
- Robert (10/5): - Desk clerk provided us with extra blanket and recommended restaurant to eat at for dinner.
- Robert (10/5): Cute, cool small hotel - Amazing boutique hotel. Room was clean with beautiful decor. Loved the coffee/espresso machine. Very cool outside bar area that was open until 11 during a recent stay. I would go back again if I was in the area.
- Mary (10/5): Early Fall Stay - We enjoyed a two night stay and were very pleased with the room size. We enjoyed cocktails from the bar and the staff was all so friendly. Location was great for shopping and dining options.
- hector (10/5): - Loved it. Next time in Ithaca will stay here again
- cillian (10/5): - Had great charm and character but did not lack desired modern facilities
- Jacobo (10/5): - The whole hotel place is beautifully done!
- Maribeth (10/5): - A beautiful property. So close to Ithaca Commons and has a quaint outdoor space to have drinks right on the property. The staff is awesome and ready to take care of any needs. So friendly, fun and accommodating. Had such a great time relaxing with my husband, taking drink recommendations from the bartender and enjoying the time here.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Beautiful and charming property. I wish we were able to stay longer than one night.
