Seneca Clipper Inn, hotel in Watkins Glen

Just 25 minutes’ walk from Seneca Lake, this motel is 1.4 km from Watkins Glen State Park and 8 km from the Watkins Glenn Race Track. Free WiFi is available throughout the motel.

Perfect location the harbor is a leisurely 25 minute walk down through town. The inn is located right on the main strip and right next door to a grocery store and liquor/beer store. The room has everything you need for a few night stay even a little table and chairs to eat at. Loved the comfortable bed as well. Everything was clean and modern definitely more updated and better looking than the old pics on Google. Amazing value for money as every other stay is much more expensive in the area .

    Watkins glen state Park, Havana glen Park both have amazing scenery and waterfalls. The state park is definitely a two hour plus hike all around and is worth every step. Havana Glen is a very short walk can be done in 30 mins however you are walking right alongside a gorgeous multi level waterfall. The town itself is gorgeous and clean very quaint and boutique like. The harbor front was absolutely stunning with endless views of Seneca Lake and a gorgeous boardwalk to take in all the views. Highly recommend Lakewood Vineyards when driving along the wine trail. Everything is so close together from the parks to the wineries. Watkins Glen is truly a magical place . Recommend a minimum of two days to explore the main attractions at a leisurely pace

    Very nice, clean town. Felt very safe walking at night.

    Very nice, clean town. Felt very safe walking at night. Trails at the Glen were very nice walking, very scenic. Make sure to inquire about trail closures though. Gorge trail closes early November but South rim was closed for maintenance this time.

    The Gorge trail is something you need to see.

    The Gorge trail is something you need to see. You can take all the pictures you want, but it doesn’t portray just how mesmerizing it is. We went early in the morning and hardly anyone was there and we were able to take our time and enjoy it, but by the time we headed back up the gorge, it was crowded. If you are staying in town, and looking for a good restaurant, Jerlandos Italian restaurant is a great option. Very reasonable prices and the best garlic bread. If you like the old motor courts, then you’ll like Gorgeous View Motel. Very basic room, but clean and has a microwave, fridge and coffee pot in the room. Driveway up to the room is a little sketchy, but you have a nice view of the lake from your porch. After you visit Watkins Glen, a few miles down the road in Montour Falls is a waterfall right in town. It’s worth making a detour to see it

    There are so many wineries! One could spend days just visiting wineries. The town is quaint. Lots of restaurants to choose from. My only disappointment was that i didn't have time to see the falls.

    There is a huge variety of experiences available in Watkins Glen, from hiking, boating and swimming, to shopping and dining. Hiking the state park is an awe-inspiring experience, and dozens of wineries nearby offer tours and tastings.

    Absolutely spectacular. Biucket list place to visit.

    Absolutely spectacular. Biucket list place to visit. We spent all afternoon hiking in the Glen. The waterfalls and trails are beautiful. Get the shuttle pass. Start at the north lot and hike down then use the shuttle to go back up and do the rim trails. Use the shuttle to go back up again. The ice cream at the north lot is excellent. Wear anti slip hiking boots. everything is wet. Try to go on a non race weekend. It was a little crowded and of course not everyone is polite. People can get crazy with their selfie sticks. Defintely wirth a trip. Great little town and jump off point to do the wine trail around Seneca lake.

    First of all, you are booking a 2 star rated motel, so keeping your expectations with that in mind, it was great. We stayed in a room with two beds. Room was quite spacious. It had a bar fridge and microwave. Man and lady there were friendly, view facing the lake was great, place was clean. Two chairs and table for us in the room, and table and two chairs on our balcony overlooking the lake. We sat out there with our drink. Coffee at breakfast was very good. Located about one mile from Watkins Glen gorge. We would stay there again.

    Breakfast was perfect - Dining with the other guests made it really special, talking about our days ahead, and getting to know people from all around the States, as well as the hosts. Watkins Glen, and Lake Seneca - are excellent places - Wineries, Breweries, boat ride, as well as hiking on the trails kept us busy during our stay. Really enjoyable stay

    The location was ideal ... we were in the town specifically to hike at Watkins Glen Park, and we were able to leave our car and walk to the trailhead from the hotel. Also, good grape pie across the street. Friendly staff. The breakfast was packaged danishes and cinnamon buns, but better than nothing, and we were glad to have coffee.

    Beautiful, clean hotel that was in the perfect location for a relaxing weekend in the Finger Lakes. Super comfy room and hotel was central to endless wineries/breweries along both sides of the lake. Walking distance down to the harbor and downtown Watkins Glen restaurants. Couldn’t have asked for a better weekend here :)

    I was happy with this 2 star hotel, I only stayed for couple of nights whilst driving through the region and mostly picked this for location and price. Location is great, very close to Watkins Park for walking and close to the lake and town, all within walking distances. The prices were reasonable.
