Great quaint spot

Review of Tunnicliff Inn
4.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 29 May 2021
We enjoyed our stay here. Close to everything, very charming! Can’t wait to stay again. Prices were reasonable, so we will be able to come back multiple times my friends stayed elsewhere and weren’t as happy as we were. We ate at the Pioneer Patio, and they suggested we stay here. Glad we decided to stay! We will be back!!

We were in town for a getaway weekend and to visit the Hall of Fame a d wanted to stay somewhere close. As a was making our plans I came across this historic hotel which is more like a bed and breakfast in my opinion. It's an old building from the 1800's so it has character and charm. Yes the floors creak and may have some uneven spots but it's part of its charm. We arrived on a Friday night and checked in to a happy gentleman that explained everything to us as far as our room, parking, breakfast etc. We got to our room to find a huge king bed which was very comfortable. Our room had furniture that reminded us of a past era in its design, but the room was very quaint. For breakfast each morning we had a cooked to order breakfast which was choose off a printed order sheet, eggs, bacon, toast with butter, home fries, muffins, coffee and juice were my selections each morning. Breakfast was hot and tasty and in front of us in about 5 minutes, very quick. If you're looking for a place that's close to everything in town this is it. We loved it, walking distance to everything we wanted to see and do. All in all we loved this place and would gladly stay here again. A nice place with character plus friendly service, clean and comfortable, a real gem in our book.

If you are in Cooperstown during the Halloween season, this is a place to visit. The manager goes all out to decorate (inside and out) with some amazing pieces - ghosts, witches, etc. You name and he has it somewhere. Several of the pieces "talk"! A great place to stay as you are a block away from the Hall of Fame. A great breakfast that adheres to the correct CDC guidelines. As scary as this year has been the Tunnicliff brings out some things that will make you smile. Check it out!

My husband and I stayed at the Tunnicliff on our recent trip to Cooperstown. Let me say, the breakfast was the deciding factor for my husband but the old building was my choice as I love architecture. That being said, check in is at 4pm but if you arrive early and space is available, they will let you park in the back. We listened to the manager explain all the details of breakfast, our room, the steam coil heaters and the air conditioning as well as the ceiling fans. The climb up the two flights of steps was interesting. Every part of the Inn is clean and orderly from the top floor all the way down to the bottom. IF you have any kind of problems with steps, there are two rooms on the "ground" floor but you will still have to climb up a few steps be they at the front door or the back as well as the step or two between the small lounge to the front desk.

I saw a review claiming there was a ghost in room 206, but it never bothered us. We didn't experience water turning on or anyone in the hall. We could, however, hear one of the other guests in their room talking around 10pm. Keep that in mind if you don't want to be heard as the walls are somewhat thin.

This is the perfect place to stay if you want to be close to the HOF, stores, lake or restaurants. Well worth the price.
**NOTE** we stayed during the "pandemic" and had a modified experience with breakfast but found all the servers to be very kind and helpful as well as efficient.

Room tip: IF you have problems with steps request the first floor rooms, there are only two (2) and you will have the least amount of steps to climb.

Could not be more handy and familiar. Relaxed from checkin to checkout it is
easy just to wander all over the town while you wait for baseball's Hall of Fame
to open only a block away. The rooms are comfortable and reasonable. The
building is a bit odd but it is old and been around too.

Room tip: Read review please
