The award winning William Henry Miller Inn is located in the heart of downtown Ithaca. Built by Cornell University's first architecture student, the details are stunning--chestnut woodwork, Tiffany stained glass, original shutters. Our full breakfast features all homemade breads, homemade English Muffins and bagels accompanied by homemade jams. Our evening dessert buffet is the perfect way to end the day. We are happy to accommodate dietary requests. Within walking distance of fifty restaurants, Cornell University, Cascadilla Gorge and just a short hop to Ithaca College, we are really central to everything. Providing concierge service and a business center, parking is right on site. Parking and wireless are included in the rate. Proud to be a member of Select Registry and Lynnette Scofield received the Innkeeper of the Year Award by Select Registry.

We stayed at the William Henry Miller Inn to celebrate our anniversary, and we thoroughly enjoyed it! The Sanctuary room was very clean, spacious, and comfortable, and the bathroom was huge. We enjoyed the evening desserts, and breakfast was both delicious and plentiful. The Inn is within walking distance to many restaurants, as well as nature trails & waterfalls. The innkeeper and staff were friendly and helpful, and we were more than satisfied with our visit. Definitely recommend it for a lovely historic place to stay!

The location, the hospitality and the accommodations are perfect. We traveled with our dog and were able to book the suite in the back Cottage that allows pets. The suite was spacious and comfortable. As noted by others, the Inn is right by the commons and walking distance to shops, parks, falls, restaurants, etc. Amy is a wonderful host!

Lovely old mansion. Furnishing a bit boring but lovely hardwood everywhere! Very efficient operation though I really missed not seeing anyone. No contact checkin worked well. The nightly desserts were divine. Great communication with the Innkeeper. Would definitely stay again!

I had the most lovely time with my spouse at the William Henry Inn. Located a block away from the Ithaca Commons it’s the perfect location. Breakfast was to die for. The coffee was spectacular. The desserts were decadent and delicious. 10 out of 10 recommend. The innkeeper Amy was so hospitable and accommodating. We had a lovely breakfast server named Lilly who was an absolute delight.

My mother and I met my sister in Ithaca for an over night. I am very particular about ADA rooms for my mom. Many have just enough room for her wheelchair. The William Henry Miller Inn has so much more room that we were able to enjoy each other’s company but still able to retreat if needed. My sister had the adjoining room in the carriage house. Her room had a separate sitting room where we gathered and had our snacks/meals. We are already planning multiple stays. Because of COVID our breakfast was delivered to our door. The food was fantastic. I’m not a breakfast person but I ate everything. The rooms were clean and well stocked. Right down to the real wine glasses and openers. Photos are of the ADA room and food in the sitting room in adjoining room.
