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!

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

10.0 / 10.0
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.

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!
10.0 / 10.0
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.

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

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!

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!

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.

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.
8.0 / 10.0
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.
