Nothing.

The breakfast was fresh cooked. Great selection of muffins. Beautiful glass covered room

All was great

Wonderful vintage charm, big rooms, very friendly staff.

The electronic lock to my room didn’t work, but I was fine with using the key.

Beautiful, and private! Comfortable bed and great jacuzzi!

It’s a beautiful historical house! We can see the fine works. The rooms are very comfortable. The breakfast is 5 stars! We enjoyed it.

The floor needs to be fixed a little better.😊

We had a truly lovely stay at the Benn Conger Inn. From the moment we arrived, we felt warmly welcomed. The lady who greeted us was incredibly kind and made our experience even more special by preparing a fresh breakfast for us every morning - something you do not always find, and it really made a difference. The hotel is located in a quiet, small village, which added to the peaceful atmosphere. Sometimes it's not about the rooms or the building - it's the genuine hospitality that makes a place memorable, and this stay was a perfect example of that.

A beautiful Inn with great staff and a wonderful breakfast.

A little pricey for the location

Top notch place, comfort and value. Breakfast was delicious and homemade. All the essentials for a hearty, great start to the day breakfast. Location was fantastic for us since we wanted to explore all the things the two largest Finger lakes have to offer. Best of all that stands above everything else is their personal touch and hospitality. One particular moment sums it all up. My wife had accidentally left some personal items behind. We were already so far away that couldn't go back, but Drew at the Inn was able to track the items down and personally went down to the post office to ship them to us! That's a personal touch I really didn't expect but I should have actually, since the moment we stepped foot at the Inn it really was a white glove experience from the start and of course even after we left! Lori was an amazing host as well and we felt immediately at home with her, in fact it was her childhood home, so no wonder she and Drew treat everyone as true guests to their home. Thank you Lori and Drew!

Everything was absolutely wonderful and breakfast was delicious. 😀

The only thing was there were no spoons in the room to stir coffee and there wasn’t any regular sugar.

Everything was perfect upon arrival. Shelly made sure we were comfortable and was extremely helpful and attentive. The property was very quiet, great for a good night's sleep after hiking. We were in the Dempsey suite and enjoyed the porch with a view of rabbits and deer in the morning and evenings. Breakfast was delicious. Depending on the day there was a combination of fresh fruit, muffins, waffles and cinnamon bun French toast, as well as eggs cooked to order daily. The location worked great for exploring all the lakes and state parks in the area. Ithaca was 20 minutes away for any type of restaurant or store one would need.

The only suggestions to make a great stay even better, would be to have a variety of pillow options and to have a non-pork/beef breakfast meat like turkey/chicken or veggie sausage on hand for guests who don't eat pork/beef. These are things that have been available at other places we've stayed.

The staff was helpful, showed us to our room & gave history of the property. The room was beautiful, comfortable and relaxing. Breakfast was delicious.

Sidewalks in front of the house were old and uneven, not the fault of the Inn.

We stayed two nights at this beautiful estate inn, and from the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by Shelley, the concierge, who is truly the heart and soul of this one-of-a-kind place. She personally introduced herself, gave us a tour of the property, and made sure we felt right at home. Each morning, we were greeted with a delightful spread for breakfast—fresh fruit, muffins, warm cinnamon bread, and a variety of egg options, all beautifully prepared and delicious. The inn itself is decorated majestically, with elegant paintings, unique artwork, and antique furniture that gives it a charming Victorian feel. Our room was no exception—beautifully appointed with vintage touches, comfortable beds, and kept impeccably clean. Between the exceptional service, the enchanting atmosphere, and the overall comfort, I truly wouldn’t stay anywhere else when visiting the area again.
