Top Watkins Glen Hotel Reviews

Meadow Court Inn

8/10 Good

"Our first room 242, lost power along one whole wall, no TV, no lights. Kind staff tried to reset breaker but no luck! We were given a new room 241, all good except lights in bathroom didn't work. We will be back, great staff and great location for us!"

The Anchor Inn and Marina

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was most helpful and polite. Our room with a balcony, over looked Seneca Lake. Something we found most enjoyable. Sitting on the balcony and having dinner and chatting with other guests. We will surely recommend this venue to friends and we will come back next year. It is a 2 minute car ride to the main strip, where the shops and restaurants and the park is located. Not to mention, its less than 15 mins to Watkins Glenn race track."
