Great place to stay for some peace and quiet. Very large room! Food and service wonderful. About 25 min to Cornell/Ithaca downtown. Only minor issue was the lowish water pressure in tbe shower, otherwise fine stay.

We loved this B&B. I am super picky about my room, bathroom, food, and bed and generally don't like B&Bs; however, this one, I will return to for sure. We loved the history behind this B&B and we were nicely greeted upon arrival, given a nice tour and explanation of property. Our suite fit 3 adults nicely, air conditioned, and the bathroom was a decent size. It was perfect for a night/day when we had to visit a local college. My husband and I will always check this B&B for availability any time we visit our son at school. The icing on the cake was the breakfast in the morning - you do not get this service at any hotel! We will definitely return.

Best breakfast I have ever had at a B&B! Casually sophisticated served in a great old mansion from the 1800's with a great history. The room I stayed in was comfortable and had the quietest air conditioning I have ever had anywhere. The gas fireplace made the room! Surprisingly quiet neighborhood too! Kudos to Drew and everyone at the Benn Conger Inn. My 6 night stay was great and I was happy I was able to pass on to you a new cooked egg technique.

My husband and I booked our stay pretty last minute, and we were so glad we did! Benn Conger Inn was a lovely property with kind, inviting staff. The room was perfectly clean with a view to the quaint backyard where we could enjoy the fall foliage and even spot deer passing through. Breakfast was absolutely phenomenal-- fresh baked muffins, local coffee, made-to-order omelettes, and more! It was a quick drive to surrounding larger towns as well. Overall would absolutely recommend.
