“Charming retreat”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 February 2012

Stayed for two nights in December w/ my significant other and our two dogs. We loved the resort and will return. The dog-friendly rooms are fabulous, and the staff was friendly. They are eco-friendly which is appreciated, though having a steakhouse on premise is ironic. We enjoyed hiking the trails leading to the state park. Dinner at Moosewood is a must as is Ithaca Brewing Co's apricot wheat beer. Yum! The resort is romantic--though there were not many other guests. Thanks for a great stay--and for allowing our pups to come along w/ no add'l fee.

“Check in was not good but everything else exceeded our expectations.”

We went to La Tourelle for a night away. We arrived at 1pm to the August Moon Spa and at 3pm we headed over to check in. The front desk employee was nice but the manager on duty was very cold. We were told our room was not ready (had not been cleaned) even though 3pm is the check in time. They suggested we stay in a different room een though we made a reservation a while back for the room we wanted. They went and had the cleaners work on the room while we waited. The front desk employee did apologize and offered us a coupon for free breakfast for our troubles. Our room was ready less than ten mins later. It was a great room and the only trouble we had was fixed promptly. The wine tasting hour was great as well as the cozy fireplace. Other than the manager's attitude we had a great stay.

“Luxurious for Ithaca!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 January 2012

Enjoyed a romantic get-a-way with my husband at this Inn. The room was fabulous, very clean, absolutely charming with the in-room gas fireplace. The August Moon Spa was FABULOUS- they exist for well-being, not "bling" factor. I could have stayed at the spa all day!
The front desk staff could have been more accommodating by sharing details about the Inn, but that's my only suggestion for improvement.
Overall very comfortable, clean and welcoming. I can't wait to go there again!

“nice large room, great wine tasting”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 January 2012

We were three traveling together and were thrilled to get a room with a king, and a queen size bed and still have room for a sofa, table and chairs. We saw deer out the window each night and enjoyed a complimentary wine tasting of the local wines. The breakfast is fantastic.The bathroom needed some repair in the shower and the bathroom heater was very loud if we turned it on, still we enjoyed our stay very much and would highly recommend it.

Room Tip: If you like to see deer ask for a room with a view of the north lawn.

“Charming and cozy”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 January 2012

Heavenly bed, nice people...those are good things. It was nothing too special, outside of that. But that said, I don't think Ithaca has too many luxury options. so this is a decent place to come to, if you are not into motels or B&Bs. It is a bit pricey for what you are getting, but that seems to be the majority of Ithaca.
