Relaxed Boutique Charm Minutes from Ithaca’s Music Scene

La Tourelle Hotel & Spa blends rustic elegance with local charm in a serene Ithaca setting. Just a short drive from downtown music venues and college campuses, this family-owned hotel offers a peaceful retreat with all the comforts of home—plus a full-service spa to unwind after a night out.

With free parking, complimentary WiFi, and cozy, well-appointed rooms featuring flat-screen TVs and coffee makers, La Tourelle is a welcoming base whether you're here for a quick weekend or a music-filled getaway.

Why Concert-goers love it

This hotel hits the right note for concert-lovers looking for a calm place to recharge. It’s close to popular Ithaca venues, yet tucked away enough to offer a quiet night’s sleep. The shuttle service (available with advance request) makes late-night returns easy, and the flexible 3:00 PM check-in means you can settle in before the show. Taxis and rideshares are also readily available for getting to and from events.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends who want a mix of music and nature
• Solo travelers catching a dream concert in Ithaca

• Fans looking for a quiet, spa-like recovery after a loud night

Food and Drink Options

While there's no late-night room service, La Tourelle serves up a delicious on-site breakfast—ideal after a late night out. The lobby bar hosts a daily hospitality hour from 5–6 PM with local wine, beer, and spirits, and you'll find plenty of walkable dining options nearby in Ithaca.

Nightlife Options

Though the hotel itself is more serene than party central, it offers a cozy bar perfect for a pre-show drink. You're also just minutes from Ithaca’s energetic downtown, where you can find live music venues, bars, and lounges to keep the night going.

What People Say

Guests love the friendly staff, tranquil atmosphere, and perfect blend of comfort and character. Many reviews highlight the clean rooms, spa-quality showers, and the added bonus of a backyard hiking trail to Buttermilk Falls.

Areas for Improvement

The hotel’s location is slightly outside downtown, so you’ll likely need a car or ride service to reach most venues. Also, while the vibe is peaceful, if you’re looking for an all-night party hotel, this may not be your scene.

The Bottom Line

La Tourelle Hotel & Spa offers concert-goers a cozy, quiet, and convenient home base with just the right amount of local flavor and post-show relaxation.
