Jenn and Madeline were fabulous hosts. Very friendly and accommodating! The breakfast far surpassed expectations, and check in process was seamless. We were able to walk into town easily (just be aware there is a bit of a hill if you walk back). Nice neighborhood, we will be back!
The bed was comfortable and breakfast was absolutely amazing. The location is very walkable to dining and shopping. There are so many beautiful hikes in the area as well. We definitely would stay here again!

The room was perfect. It allowed us to come and go and was just a wonderful little get away. Kenn and Madeline were so kind and hospitable and the breakfast was simply amazing. We can’t wait for our next opportunity to travel to Ithaca and stay at the Inn on Columbia.
The Inn on Columbia was fantastic. We stayed two evenings in this centrally located property in Ithaca. This was our first trip to Ithaca, Ken and Madeline were amazingly helpful. The breakfast is nothing short of phenomenal! All of the guests we met were very friendly and made for interesting morning conversations. The Inn is very comfortable, clean and you are made to feel welcome at all times.
Ideal location. Beautiful inn. And the best ever gourmet breakfasts. Loved the sparkling drinks in the fridge and the very understanding, accommodating hosts. Cant say enough good things.
Had a wonderful 3 days here. Madeleine and Ken, were excellent and helpful hosts, providing suggestions for walks, wineries and restaurants. The daily homemade breakfast was delicious and varied each day. We particularly loved the fresh homemade muffins and scones. Lovely touch to have access to complimentary snacks, fruit and drinks through the day as well. Great location, comfortable room and an easy walk into town.
We had to the most wonderful time at Inn on Columbia!! Our hosts were amazing, incredibly welcoming, friendly, and helpful. The carriage house was perfect. We highly recommend.
We had a wonderful time at The Inn on Columbia. Madeline and Kenn were wonderful hosts. We were visiting Ithaca College and the location was perfect. Breakfast was delicious and generous. We hope to return again someday.
The breakfast alone is worth a visit! Perfect location to access downtown commons and quick drives to the top nature areas and Cornell campus. This was our first visit to Ithaca and we will definitely return!
Our stay here was absolutely wonderful! The accommodation was extremely comfortable and the host went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Their warm hospitality truly made our trip special. The homemade breakfast each morning was a real highlight - freshly prepared, delicious, and the perfect way to start our day. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for both quality lodging and genuine local hospitality!
Beautiful, fresh, homemade breakfast that changed every day. This place had everything- great water pressure, easy parking, lovely conversation with the owners and their pets. Thank you Madeleine and Kenn for the recommendations and accommodations.
I definitely recommend a multi-night stay :)
Lovely, quaint inn, with relaxing atmosphere.
The hosts were very helpful and welcoming.
Madeline, the inn keeper, served a great breakfast. All in all, awesome!
