Hotels in Ithaca, NY

Ithaca is at the heart of a comprehensive bus system run by the Tompkins Consolidated Area Transit (TCAT), which operates 34 routes, mostly seven days a week. The downtown area is served by many bus routes (10, 11, 14, 17, 20, 21, 30, 31, 31, 51, 70 and 72), all focused on an area called the Commons. Hotels in Ithaca close by include Ithaca Marriott Downtown on the Commons and Hotel Ithaca. The Ithaca Tompkins International Airport has a string of Ithaca hotels that are well connected to public transport, including Homewood Suites by Hilton Ithaca and Courtyard by Marriott Ithaca Airport/University. Bus Routes 32 and 72 will get you to the area.

Prospective college students on the prowl to find cheap hotels in Ithaca can start with Super 8 by Wyndham Ithaca on North Meadow Street downtown, or Quality Inn Ithaca – University Area near the Walmart Supercenter. The latter can be reached using Routes 11, 14 and 15. Ithaca also approximately marks the halfway point between New York and Toronto, but only if you’re taking a slow drive either way, as the town is quite far from the nearest interstate highway, I-81. So, if you need to meet someone halfway between the largest cities in the US and Canada, or you need to break up your trip, this is a good place to be. Trip Hotel Ithaca is near Hew York State Route 13, which will re-connect you to the I-81, and offers free breakfast, Wi-Fi and a shuttle service. If you’re a nature lover, then try the Rodeway Inn & Suites near the Buttermilk Falls. Route 67 takes you to the Falls but you would be better suited to have a rental car here, available through momondo.

Ithaca hotels downtown, such as the Hilton Garden Inn Ithaca right near the Commons, offer access to many food and drink options. Mahogany Grill is a steakhouse close by, as is Ithaca Alehouse Bar & Grill and Taste of Thai, which does take-out. These are easily accessed due to the many bus routes that converge on the downtown area.
