Beautiful property perfectly located between Watkins Glen and Ithaca. Easy check-in, free onsite parking and wonderful communication. The estate itself is gorgeous, no detail spared, we stayed in the Classic Double/Twin room (2 beds). The space was great and came with a private bathroom within a couple steps of the room. Don't hesitate to book, we can't wait to come back. A true gem.

We absolutely loved our stay here! The room was spacious and gorgeous! Loved having a soaking tub in our room, along with robes which was such a nice touch. The downstairs was absolutely beautiful as well as the outside. It was such a cute little spot in a very small town. The hotel is within walking distance to all the shops in town, sadly most were closed by the time we got there. It’s also just a short drive to Ithaca and some NY state parks which was the reach for our trip. I would definitely stay here again!

One of the best hotels ever!
Excellent hôtel all around. The service was great. We asked ahead of time if we could check in early since we had a wedding at the same time as check-in. She kindly got us in early, and I cannot thank them enough for accommodating us. The room and hotel are gorgeous with so much character. It is one of the nicest hotels I have ever stayed at, and I travel a lot for work. The location is good because it’s close to the little downtown of Trumansburg and maybe 20 minutes from Ithaca. I highly recommend!

First Class !
Talk about decorating knowledge and attention to detail. 13 Elm gets an A+!You May just be inspired to enhance the interior of your home! Impeccable taste in furnishings and a warm welcome ambiance comes to mind . We want to return and will be sure to tell friends about our memorable stay. Being a piano player, the Grand in the living room is a special touch! Please don’t hesitate to book and create lasting memories of your own.

Upscale, gorgeous property in charming small town
What an exquisite property— the grounds, the house, the decor! The room is luxurious but only lacks in having a table to set things on (the closet is very small, too), but the room makes up for it in every other way.
It was self check in with no host on site but communication was excellent and the next day, my husband ran into one of the managers, Nicole, who was a darling— so sweet and friendly and helpful.
Trumansburg is a charming, very small town and 16 Elm is one of the nicest inns we’ve ever stayed in-- a real treat! We would return in a heartbeat!

16 Elm is an elegant historic 19th century home well presented with great attention to detail with many historical furnishings, lamps, paintings etc. The living room, parlor, library were very interesting to explore. The guest room was very comfortable with elegant finishings and clean bathroom. Everything you might need is provided, even a complimentary cocktail.
