Watkins Glen Harbor Hotel, hotel in Watkins Glen

Located in Watkins Glen, 20 miles from Glenn H. Curtiss Museum, Watkins Glen Harbor Hotel provides accommodations with a fitness center, free private parking, a restaurant and a bar.

We enjoyed the pool and hot tub as well as the outdoor fire pits. The water was warm in the pool and hot in the hot tub. They were very popular at the time of our trip. The wine trail nearby is amazing and the town of Geneva is not to be missed.

    Watkins glen state Park, Havana glen Park both have amazing scenery and waterfalls. The state park is definitely a two hour plus hike all around and is worth every step. Havana Glen is a very short walk can be done in 30 mins however you are walking right alongside a gorgeous multi level waterfall. The town itself is gorgeous and clean very quaint and boutique like. The harbor front was absolutely stunning with endless views of Seneca Lake and a gorgeous boardwalk to take in all the views. Highly recommend Lakewood Vineyards when driving along the wine trail. Everything is so close together from the parks to the wineries. Watkins Glen is truly a magical place . Recommend a minimum of two days to explore the main attractions at a leisurely pace

    Very nice, clean town. Felt very safe walking at night.

    Very nice, clean town. Felt very safe walking at night. Trails at the Glen were very nice walking, very scenic. Make sure to inquire about trail closures though. Gorge trail closes early November but South rim was closed for maintenance this time.

    The Gorge trail is something you need to see.

    The Gorge trail is something you need to see. You can take all the pictures you want, but it doesn’t portray just how mesmerizing it is. We went early in the morning and hardly anyone was there and we were able to take our time and enjoy it, but by the time we headed back up the gorge, it was crowded. If you are staying in town, and looking for a good restaurant, Jerlandos Italian restaurant is a great option. Very reasonable prices and the best garlic bread. If you like the old motor courts, then you’ll like Gorgeous View Motel. Very basic room, but clean and has a microwave, fridge and coffee pot in the room. Driveway up to the room is a little sketchy, but you have a nice view of the lake from your porch. After you visit Watkins Glen, a few miles down the road in Montour Falls is a waterfall right in town. It’s worth making a detour to see it

    There are so many wineries! One could spend days just visiting wineries. The town is quaint. Lots of restaurants to choose from. My only disappointment was that i didn't have time to see the falls.

    There is a huge variety of experiences available in Watkins Glen, from hiking, boating and swimming, to shopping and dining. Hiking the state park is an awe-inspiring experience, and dozens of wineries nearby offer tours and tastings.

    Absolutely spectacular. Biucket list place to visit.

    Absolutely spectacular. Biucket list place to visit. We spent all afternoon hiking in the Glen. The waterfalls and trails are beautiful. Get the shuttle pass. Start at the north lot and hike down then use the shuttle to go back up and do the rim trails. Use the shuttle to go back up again. The ice cream at the north lot is excellent. Wear anti slip hiking boots. everything is wet. Try to go on a non race weekend. It was a little crowded and of course not everyone is polite. People can get crazy with their selfie sticks. Defintely wirth a trip. Great little town and jump off point to do the wine trail around Seneca lake.

    The location of the Inn hotel is very nice overlooking Seneca Lake. The proprietors were very friendly and helpful. The balcony was a nice touch, but here is no barriers on the balconies for each hotel unit, which was a privacy issue. The motel unit was clean, but definitely older. I appreciated the refrigerator and the microwave. Good water pressure and temperature in the shower. My only issue was with the foam mattress, which I found uncomfortable, but others may like. I prefer inner spring mattresses.

    This beautiful B&B with a lovely view of the lake was perfect for our first post COVID trip to celebrate our anniversary. Jim and Kristine were perfect hosts who went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable, easy, and enjoyable! Their suggestions were spot on and the breakfasts were extraordinary! The whole place was spotless and comfortable. The location was perfect with town and the Watkins Glen State Park within comfortable walking distance. Will stay there again for sure! Great value!

    Owner was very helpful, informative and accommodating. Told us about the town, where customers have said they liked to eat. Allowed us to keep the car in their parking lot for several hours after checkout, so that we could go hiking in the Watkins Glen state park, Excellent location - across the street from the park entrance, and a few short blocks' walk to restaurant area and the lake marina & park. Room was clean and well-kept.

    The view of Seneca Lake from our room was great. The food at the hotel was very good. I loved the pool. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Walking distance to Watkins Glen State park and restaurants in the town was very convenient. The bed was very comfortable. Our room was spacious. My wife loved the long lounge couch. Complimentary Starbucks coffee was great to wake up to.

    Breakfast was perfect - Dining with the other guests made it really special, talking about our days ahead, and getting to know people from all around the States, as well as the hosts. Watkins Glen, and Lake Seneca - are excellent places - Wineries, Breweries, boat ride, as well as hiking on the trails kept us busy during our stay. Really enjoyable stay

    The hotel is located close to Watkins Glen town and state park. The is a large terrace as well as a shred playroom. There also many wineries close by. The room was very large, but the whole place is definitely ready for an update. Breakfast was very simple and included fresh fruit and cooked eggs, but bagels and bread were not very fresh.

    The location in Montour Falls is very convenient for a visit to Watkins Glen State Park, roughly 2 miles north. Across the street from the motel is an entrance to a rail trail hiking/biking path that leads right into the city of Watkins Glen.
