We stayed in the Railroad Inn for one night last August and two nights this August, and are impressed with the clean room, helpful staff, breakfast cereals, and ample parking. Best of all is the location, a short walk from the Baseball Hall of Fame. We strongly recommend the Railroad Inn in Cooperstown, NY.

Super cute property. Very clean & comfortable. While a little pricey it's proximity to downtown Cooperstown & the Baseball Hall of Fame made that worth it.

We went as a couple just to see the Baseball Hall of Fame. We had no idea how many things there are here! The staff at the hotel advised us of all the things around us and the history of the town. Our hotel was a short walk from EVERYTHING in either direction. The amount of details regarding Railroads in the Railroad Inn was INCREDIBLE! I have a real love of trains and this hotel does not disappoint! So clean! Snacks and beverages available all night long. A nice place to kick back like a B&B either inside or outside. Also deer all night long steps from the door. So cool for these hardened city folk!

A nice surprise from our usual hotel rooms. Nice, quiet, and staff were friendly. Cooperstown is a beautiful town and home of the baseball hall of fame which was our primary reason for being there. Highly recommend the Railroad Inn
