Traditions Hotel & Spa, Ascend Hotel Collection

Nice night away. The hotel is an older building which lends to its own type of charm. Staff was friendly and helpful. Room was small but comfortable and clean. Wi-fi and water temp were so-so. Area surrounding has many restaurants, shopping, and things were easy to get to.

Friendly staff.

Great stay for class reunion group. Would definitely stay again

Loved everything about this place, nice breakfasts too!

I had a great stay at this hotel. I have stayed at several hotels whilst traveling and they were very accommodating and friendly. I was late to check in and they very understanding as I was driving up moving from another state (Virginia) on my way up to Vermont and got a bit backed up and behind schedule since I was still packing everything up. Anyhow, I would definitely stay here again if I was ever in the area. It was quiet, very clean, the staff was very friendly and understanding and they offered a wonderful breakfast complimentary with scrambled eggs, loads of bacon, various cereal options, fresh homemade waffles, fruit, bagels, and more. I love breakfast so I definitely partook in that offer. If I had more time, I would have visited the spa. I am not sure how costly it is, but it would have been worth looking into because I am a big fan of deep tissue massage. What was nice was that they actually offered the spa products as the bath products to use in the room and they were pretty good I must say. Overall, I had no complaints. Everything in the room functioned properly, cleanliness was five stars, and it had this old colonial 17th-18th century charm/aesthetic to it that made it feel inviting and quaint. It was a nice escape from modern day living and I felt like I was at an elegant bed and breakfast feel versus a corporate style hotel which nothing wrong with those. Sometimes an escape to a rolling hill country side cottage trumps the 20th century 80 story skyscraper.

This has become our favorite place to stay in the Binghamton area. We're here once a year or so to see family. We like the quiet, the walking paths and the view over the valley especially in fall when the colors blaze. We like the building's character - not a soulless beige box - and the old photos of its history as an IBM retreat. We like the location, 2 minutes from a Wegman's with a great cafe, and the local ethnic restaurants. The included breakfast buffet is by no means fancy (the expected eggs, bacon, sausage, waffles) but still a step above average: the fruit salad is fresh & pretty, the yogurt is Chobani, the bread & bagels have heft. And the tables have white cloths and real silverware. My very favorite highlight is the treat of an actual bathtub soak after a long day's drive. I hope they never tear them out for just showers like so many places have. Everything is clean, though some edges show the patina of time. The service is pleasant and well trained. Never tried the spa or golf but they seem popular. We appreciate their reliability & we'll keep coming back.
