The Spotlight on La Tourelle Hotel & Spa

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
  • Couples making it a romantic music weekend
  • Fans looking for a quiet, spa-like recovery after a loud night
  • Budget-conscious travelers who appreciate free perks like parking and WiFi

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.

Too noisy to stay due...

Liked: Personnel were very helpful and friendly
Disliked: The 2 room apartment was inside the remade barn with very squeaky doors. When we stepped in to the apartment the smell was very heavy. The smaller room was impossible to breathe . It was only 1 AC for the whole apartment in the leaving room!!! Bedrooms had very noisy fans impossible to sleep with. The temperature was very high at the time we stayed up to 94-96F It was very hot to sleep even with doors open to leaving room !2. Nowhere to hang clothes in the second bedroom and no dresser. 3. No hanging shelves in the bathroom where you can put soap, shampoo etc. All bottles should either be kept on floor while taking shower or outside the shower which is very inconvenient . 4. No broom to clean the dirt on floor 5. No sponge for washing cups6. Couple cups were dirty and we had to rewash them. Coffee supply was good and coffee was good .7. The most important reason why we had to leave / check out early is due the high noise from the construction below our apartment. It was impossible to stay due to the drilling noise. We had to leave earlier. The only reason I gave 2 stars but no 1 is only because the stuff was nice and helpful

Lovely little hotel

Liked: Everything was excellent about this hotel, we wished we had stayed longer. The staff were friendly and very helpful with information about the area and restaurants. We decided to stay and eat at the hotel and the food was surprisingly good. The room was clean, and the beds were comfortable. The walk at the back of the hotel (The buttermilk falls state park) was worth doing.
Disliked: Nothing

Very comfortable stay near Ithaca...

Liked: Very spacious and comfortable room. Well-appointed bathroom with plenty of hot water. Filtered water bottle taps. Well maintained coffee and tea station in lobby. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Nice spa gift shop. Relaxing outdoor seating.
Disliked: Just a couple minor areas for improvement: Hair dryer needs replacement, would have been nice to have a small freezer in the mini fridge to chill ice packs.

Disappointing

Disliked: The breakfast that was offered, a poor selection of products laid out on the bar .No proper plates , dishes or cutlery just cardboard plates and plastic knives and forks.The images show on your Web site at the time of booking didn't reflect reality.Also the cost of the accommodation we feel was far beyond what it was worth.
