My family and I recently stayed at La Tourelle for a long fall weekend. I would describe it more as an Inn than a resort. The building and grounds are charming in a down to earth, well loved kind of way. Our room was good sized, older but clean, and comfortable. We had a lovely view of the back grounds... more

From the moment we entered the hotel we were made to feel most welcomed. The bedroom was a good size and had everything we required. The grounds were so relaxing, so many spots to sit and relax. Breakfasts were another great find, everything so fresh and enjoyable. more

Prior to my trip to Cornell University I reviewed the various hotels. I chose La Tourelle Resort because I did not want a hotel on campus. Their website and brochure show a relaxing and well kept facility. Well, honestly it's not. The staff was one woman in the office that had an undergrad in education. I found her often on... more

I don’t speak French, so I think La Tourelle must mean “fantastic place” because it certainly is that – and more. My wife and I spent two wonderful days there celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary, and I’m already making plans to get back there soon. The white, two-story inn (which looks like it was transplanted straight from Burgundy) is perched... more

My husband and I celebrated our annivsary by staying at LaTourelle. We entered the inviting lobby and were immediately greeted by a staff member. Check in was easy, and we were taken to our spacious King Bed Fireplace Room and shown the features. We were second floor, overlooking the beautiful countryside behind the inn. Wood floor in the bedroom, high... more

Despite pretty mixed reviews at TA we booked a roomand were rewarded with an excellent stay. Our king room with gas fireplace had a perfect view of the sunset and mountains. Sampled the local wine at the complimentary happy hour and had a nice breakfast in a beautiful room. Skipped the stuffy overpriced French restaurant and had tapas in town.... more

I really enjoyed my stay La Tourelle Resort, and could even conceive of returning, but I believe it is overpriced for what it is and most of the resort is sorely in need of a makeover. Know going into it that this is not a big, shiny commercial resort. When we checked in on a Saturday afternoon, the general manager... more

Had high expectations, but was thoroughly disappointed. The drive in was scenic and beautiful, but once past the front doors everything was anticlimactic. One of the reasons for staying there was information from a brochure we picked up, indicating a plunge pool. Since it was a 90-degree day my first question was where is the pool. We were informed upon... more

My husband and I so looked forward to our two night get away only to be totally bummed and disappointed....so much so that we cancelled our stay and went to another inn. I found the resort on line and I must say the website is so well done....it does not realistically reflect what is really there. I booked two nights... more

Staying at La Tourelle was less like staying at a hotel and more like being invited into someone's home. The entire staff was extremely helpful and friendly and the accomodations were very comfortable and clean. The only thing that could have made the room more convenient was maybe a microwave. My husband and I booked a Wine Extravaganza weekend which... more
