What a fabulous hotel! The room, Jacuzzi tub, firepits, views, restaurant food, service... everything was top notch! We loved the location for checking out some of the nearby falls, towns, and restaurants. The Gorge is a 7 minute walk from the hotel and well worth a visit! Highly recommend this hotel!

The motel is located on the main street in the downtown. We were able to walk to the Watkins Glen State Park and easily tour the gorge. This is a big plus if you are intending to hike the gorge and you will save the $10 parking fee at the park. There were lots of good restaurants within walking distance. There is an outdoor pizza restaurant on the premises where you can eat your pizza at tables at a shaded patio and watch the pedestrians and traffic go by. There is also an ice cream parlor that seemed very popular in the building. Customers can sit in comfy chairs by the lawn to eat their ice cream. Although, the motel is on the main street, our room was quiet. We were pleasantly surprised by how large and bright our room was. We were able to park right beside our room.

Hiking in Watkins Glen State Park was superb! The town is beautiful, with some nice walking around near the pier, good coffee shops and dinner restaurants. We especially enjoyed the large Italian restaurant, Jerlando's which had an extensive menu, large portions, and tasty food.

We came to see the the Watkins Glen State Park (worth a visit!) and our stay at the Watkins Glen Motel is very close to it (walking distance). It is a popular park and busy with many people. The hundreds of steps throughout the park give a good workout!

The Vintage Grand Prix weekend at Watkins Glen was on our bucket list for several years, and it was very much worth the wait. The Friday events included the vintage race through the downtown, and it was amazing to see all the old race/sports cars thundering down the main drag. The historic recreation of the technical inspection of the pre-war cars at Smalley's Garage was the highlight of Friday's events. It was awesome to be able to walk the stunning falls in the morning, browse the shops in the afternoon and view the vintage race at 6pm. The array of bars and restaurants with so many cuisine choices was quite amazing for such a quaint business district.

Beautiful town that we are planning to visit again in the near future. We felt our weekend stay was too short. There is more to enjoy that just the gorge and waterfalls at the State Park (which in and of itself is a great experience). We stayed at Lakeside Resort which is top notch. Watkins Glen has several restaurants which are high quality. Even the cafe of the State Park served delicious sandwiches. Several vineyards are accessible from village. Corning is also close by and the Museum is worth a visit.

Even in winter, the waterfalls and lake are beautiful.

Even in winter, the waterfalls and lake are beautiful. Expect most of the main trails to be closed, so plan a few extra things to do. Walking around the town and shops, walk along the lake at state parks, visit Corning Museum of Glass, ski, tube or ride a mountain coaster are all within great distance!

Comfortable and quiet, good beds and shower, everything I needed. Walkable to everything in downtown WG, and easy access to the track. I've stayed at most of the hotels/motels in WG over a lot of years, most of them don't seem to put a lot of effort in, but this was a pleasant surprise. I stayed here more than 25 years ago and it wasn't great (didn't care in those days), happy to report that it has been renovated since then and has improved greatly. The staff that I came in contact with were friendly and easy going too.

The location of the Inn hotel is very nice overlooking Seneca Lake. The proprietors were very friendly and helpful. The balcony was a nice touch, but here is no barriers on the balconies for each hotel unit, which was a privacy issue. The motel unit was clean, but definitely older. I appreciated the refrigerator and the microwave. Good water pressure and temperature in the shower. My only issue was with the foam mattress, which I found uncomfortable, but others may like. I prefer inner spring mattresses.

I was happy with this 2 star hotel, I only stayed for couple of nights whilst driving through the region and mostly picked this for location and price. Location is great, very close to Watkins Park for walking and close to the lake and town, all within walking distances. The prices were reasonable.
