Argos Inn - Ithaca's Boutique Hotel

It was beautifully decorated everywhere on the property. The room was cozy and lovely as well.

I loved this beautiful inn in the heart of Ithaca and all the staff were very nice and responsive people.

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!

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.

Staff is very friendly and attentive. Coffee was delicious. Bar area is lovely, and all the amenities and furnishings are well-appointed.

Great location and wonderful ambience! Staying during the week days was especially fun with the jazz night on Wednesday!

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.

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.

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
