I got one or two names of places today at the NHMS DE but I have of course forgotten them!

I am heading to the Zone 1 WG event next month and am looking for some nice hotels in the area. A spa would be a bonus for my wife! And yeah I know I should have done this when I signed up for the event!

TIA

A very nice place with an excellent restaurant and even room service is the Glenora Inn, about 8 miles north of town. In town there is the new Harbor Hotel.

Yeah, lakeside view only $500 a night. The bar was empty and the waitresses were fugly. Otherwise it's a fine establishment.

Its a bit rustic in the Glen.

There is Corning.

We're staying in the new Harbor Hotel. Looked good when it was under construction the last time we were there. We aren't paying $500 a night. Far from it.

See you there.

As of two minutes a go, at www.watkinsglenharborhotel.com a "lake view" room is $245/night. Village view room is $225/night. Not inexpensive, but also not "$500". Several friends have stayed there when taking spouses/family to WG, and all spoke highly of the experience, including the restaurant and outside dining.

When I attend a WG event without my wife, I stay at the Falls Motel, which is clean and cheap.

Try the Seneca Lodge.

City slickers don't like it too much, but there's very good food, a place for kids to play and it's very near the track. The ambiente is without peer for miles around.

If you really are a city slicker, stay at the Belhurst Castle in Geneva, on the north end of the lake.....if you take the thruway from the east, ( quickest if you are coming from Boston area) you come through Geneva on rte 14.

Thanks for the input everyone!
I ended up booking the new Harbor hotel.
Hopefully I'll see some of you there!
