Top Potsdam Hotel Reviews

Best Western Potsdam University Park Inn

8/10 Good

"No Kleenex anywhere, not even at front desk! I might of missed somewhere on description for NOT HANDICP assessible. I have MS very difficult to navigate stairs. Esp with luggage. I asked the lady at desk, if no elevator? A man standing at desk conversing with lady answered for her. He stated no. I said “ I am surprised as I thought it was law. I was polite. He very smart I walked away, turned my back to go up stairs, rudely stated “. By the way it is not a law”. I was startled and embarrassed. Instead, he could have offered to carry my luggage. Somehow I don’t think this is the first rude comment. I am hoping this person is not the manager, either way I go to NY often in this area, I will not go back despite friendliness of female staff and kindness. "

Bright 3-bedroom townhome in Potsdam walk to SUNY, Clarkson downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful home, very spacious and great for larger families. Host thought of everything, had towels, extra blankets and breakfast fixings stocked. She was very quick to reply to messages and so kind! We loved the living room for hanging out and motion sensor lights throughout the house so we could move around in the dark without waking everyone up "

Allen Falls Private Woodland Cabin on 30 acres

10/10 Excellent

"This lovely little cabin was so much more than we expected. It’s a small footprint, but efficiently laid out with plenty of space for everyone to relax. It was clean and comfortable and the manager was easy to contact. The little touches like locally made soaps and fully stocked kitchen (even the stuff to make s’mores) was the gold standard for rentals. We were not there very long, but did get to walk to the creek and spend a little time by the small pond listening to the tree frogs. One thing to note is that you walk through the little bunk area to get to the main bedroom. Not an issue for us as a family, but could be a little awkward for four adults. "
