Skaneateles Suites

Great price /​Twice as nice !!!
I love this place! I was in the area to visit my daughter in January and stumbled on this wonderful place and had no hesitation about returning again this weekend for my daughter’s wedding.
Friendly and responsive staff. Excellent spacious accommodations, complimentary snacks, with kitchenettes and coffee making supplies and even instant oatmeal for a cozy breakfast. Lovely setting with up to date TV and wifi features. Each bungalow is unattached to neighboring rooms so there’s no sound of people thumping around above or beside you; no doors slamming. No traffic noise to speak of either. Convenient location less than 2 miles from town center.
I highly recommend Skaneateles Suites on its own merits AND as a winning alternative to the more obvious and overpriced places.

My wife and I are staying in Bungalow 5 as I write this. We’re in a clean and near brand new unit with kitchenette just outside of Skaneateles. Nice big single room with fold-​out couch, small eating (or working) area, nice firm bed, nice outside patio, clean bathroom with a jacuzzi-​type tub. We’re staying midweek, and the price is sweet. Very sweet.
You want charm? Find an inn, pay twice as much (or more, much more), and imagine you’re in a world that really doesn’t exist in most inns. Or B&Bs. Or outside your mind.
Tell you what. Stay here, save some bucks, imagine you’re at an inn, and then enjoy the clean room and bathroom, the free Wi-​Fi, the cable TV, and then every 15:00 or so, just pretend you’re having a real conversation with someone who’s staying at the same place you are. Then go into Skaneateles or anywhere else in the area to experience real life. Capisce?
By the way, if you’re looking for valet parking here, you’re in the wrong state of mind.

I stayed in the bungalows of Skaneateles Suites when in town for a wedding back in the summer. I had booked online (this being one of the few places in town where I could actually book and confirm a room online) and so didn’t have much idea what to expect. I was very impressed with the bungalow and the way that the hotel is run.
The personalized letter explaining details about the facilities and area was much appreciated and check in was super-​simple. The room itself was clean, so spacious, and clearly well taken care of, it’s not luxe, but is quite well-​appointed. I only wished I wasn’t traveling alone with a heavy schedule of events so that I could have taken advantage of the jacuzzi.
Other high points for me were the free snacks and beverages, including microwaveable oatmeal so I didn’t have to worry on the breakfast front, the easy wifi that allowed me to stream video from a baby shower I was missing back home, and the proximity to town and the wedding.
The owners clearly take pride in their property and take great care of it and their guests. If I’m ever in the area again I’d stay here in a heartbeat!

cute bungalows with private patio. Just outside of the city.
Friendly staff.

We really enjoyed our stay at the suites! We were traveling with 2 dogs, and the mowed yard behind the suites was a great place to walk them. The suite was immaculately clean and well appointed. We loved our private patio where we could relax and enjoy the beautiful landscaping. The friendly, attentive staff was readily available when needed.
The only issue we had was regulating the a/​c during the night. A ceiling fan would have helped.
We will definitely stay at the suites the next time we visit Skaneateles!

This review is for the bungalows, which are great because they are separated and there is no noise from rooms next door.
There are so many fantastic things about this place, so I will list some. 1) They allow dogs! And provide treats when you check in. 2) There is a lot of grass and space around to walk if you do bring a dog. 3) They give you snacks, sodas, and orange juice in the room. 4) They leave a detailed/​helpful letter with ins and outs of the place, the town, etc. 5) You don’t have to go in the office to check out, they will just run your card on your check-​out date 6) The website is okay, and you can books rooms online. 6) The rooms are clean and come with cable, fridge, kitchen space, sitting area AND a private little patio area 7) I didn’t actually meet anyone because I arrived late to check-​in, but from the letter and a phone call they seem very nice.
The only not-​fantastic things were the water pressure. The water pressure in the shower was so bad, just a trickle. This was true throughout our stay, anytime of day or night. And I love a good shower.
I would definitely stay here again on my returns to Skaneateles.
