It's a nice hotel. The property is well kept and the staff friendly. My slight negatives are the bedding is far from first rate. Pillows were hard and the sheets were rough. Also the continental breakfast was $7

This is a great place to stay in Ithaca. It’s about 10 minutes from the town center but it feels like you are in the country. Lots of open space, beautiful grounds, nice sunset views, and friendly staff make it a relaxing and enjoyable place to stay.

My opinion is influenced by recollections of what this property used to be under the former owner. It started out as a very upscale property (it used to be in the Relais & Chateaux group), and it was an "experience". I hadn't stayed here in about 15 years and now it's a clean, modern, friendly but completely non-descript, standard, property. It was a good value for the rate, and I would stay again.

Lovely hotel

Beautiful property. Clearly had been renovated recently - our room was spacious and beautiful. Friendly staff. You can walk to the trails behind the property to see waterfalls (and arrange for pickup by the hotel if you don't want to walk back). We did not get a chance to use the spa.

Excellent stay and experience.

I have been a frequent visitor of Ithaca lately as I adopted a dog with a multitude of medical issues and he goes to Cornell for treatment. I wish I had stayed here every visit. However, given that I stayed in 5 other hotels in the area I can pretty confidently say that LaTourelle is one of the best. From the staff to the people that stay there it was a fantastic experience. They more than accommodated Gandalf and I - they welcomed us and fussed over him. The spa is also a wonderful luxury, a not to be missed experience. There are also hotel activities. I can’t say enough. Would recommend to anyone.

Not perfect but really nice and perfect location.

The AC in our room didn't cool properly and the room was so humid our paperbacks curled. The shower was constantly running so our bathroom was hot and steamy. The staff was made aware of this problem. It wasn't so bad we would ask for a different room but it was less than perfect. Otherwise it's a great place. The old charm is comfortable. We would return in a heartbeat.
