Perfect location for people visiting Cornell/ Ithaca, the Woman at the front desk was amazing and very knowledgeable and was a great welcoming to our stay. The lobby/ lounge was very comfortable and made you feel like at home. They also had some very cool convenient drinks on tap that you could scan your room card and get a drink that would just charge to your room!! The room was very modern cozy rustic, very clean and just overall a great experience, am excited to stay here again in the future!!

Deserves its 5 stars! Great access to Cornel's campus at competive prices. We very much enjoyed the room, the shower, and the card access tap wall. Had a great time, would come again.

The Dorm Hotel is the place to stay when staying in Ithaca if you haven't tried it yet! The hotel is 1 block from Cornell campus and just a couple blocks from the center of downtown. The Boutique feel of this hotel is was so cozy and different from the cookie cutter hotels that are typically offered. The staff was amazing and the rooms were immaculate! I suggest giving The Dorm Hotel a try the next time you book your stay in Ithaca!!Food & drinks: Self serve beers and wines on tap in common area!

Friendly staff, great location, clean room, and quality lobby full of self-service amenities. If you are a heavy sleeper, this hotel is for you.All that said, I stayed for 4 nights in town on business and was lucky if I got more than 4 hours of sleep at night. The walls are so thin you can hear every person on your floor enter their room. Woke me up multiple times a night. Spoke to the front desk, and they said it would be similar in any room as it is a 100 year old building. So, in 100 years, no one thought to add sound dampening insulation to the walls or hydrolics to the doors to prevent them from slamming. None of that is to mention the consistent hum of the elevator or the gurgling from the hvac unit that you can turn off.I don't understand how this hotel has such high reviews as it fails its most basic function of offering a place for people to sleep.If they fix the multiple sound issues, it would be a fantastic hotel on the mountainside of Ithaca.

I booked two nights the first night I came to the room 11 PM and the showerhead was on the floor. I didn't want to bother the crew so I took a quick shower.Next night, the air condition was making a noise so hard. It wakes me up a few times and ruin my day. I was so tired.I went to the reception and told her about it, and the nice lady offer me a discountThen, when I left the reception, I saw on the counter earplugs that they give away complimentaryI assume they know about noise problems in the nights.And then, after a few hours I got to respond of we're not gonna give you nothing from the owner and hang up on meVery very rudeDon't waste your time on a place that not respect you as a guest and treat you like they don't need you anymore

For the most part I liked my stay here. Here are my only complaints:1. The AC filters were caked with dust. I ended up cleaning them myself in the sink.2. The lighting controls on the high-tech wall panel didn't work.3. There were only 2 pillows per bed and no extras available.4. The room got loud with nearby occupants early in the morning.5. The lotion available in the room had milk in it making it not cruelty free.

We had a wonderful stay at this site and spent two nights there. The hotel is comfortable and close to both the campus and city center. Although the website of the hotel mentioned that there was only tight parking space in the backyard, it was uncomplicated to park our rented Toyota 4Runner.

We loved our stay at The Dorm Hotel, spending three nights there in early July. The proprietor was very friendly, the rooms clean and modern, and the location a great point of departure for anyone spending time in Ithaca or at Cornell (just be prepared to walk up the big hills.) Bonus points for commitment to the theme. The EV charger was also a great perk for us. No complaints: we’ll definitely stay here again.

Enjoyed our two-night stay at the very cozy Dorm Hotel with great location in the middle of the beautiful Cornell facilities. Service was great, with free morning coffee, and the opportunity to do laundry. We were recommended good restaurants and spots to see in Ithaka. The rooms left nothing to be desired, and we hope to return one day.

I was pleasantly surprised when staying here. Great location on west campus. Definitely not the Hillside Inn of old. Small rooms but good service. Very comfortable.

Really enjoyed the night we spent here - rooms are small but well thought out, with many modern touches. Self-pour beer and wine by the ounce was nice. We were told parking would be tight but didn't have a problem, at least that evening.

I had a great night's sleep at the Dorm Hotel. What a cute place to stay on the edge of campus and it is an easy walk to all parts of Cornell and a short walk to downtown Ithaca. Very cute interior and comfortable mattresses. Also, EV charging was a great perk!
