We stayed at the Wendt for one night while in Hamilton. We are not normally B&B people, but the town is so charming, I think we would at least stay at the Inn next time. Was a good value, but does not have any frills. Again, service at front desk was pleasant and would be good for a quick overnight... More

My daughter and I traveled to Hamilton to see Colgate University. It was just overnight and I was certainly not looking for a place with "amenities". We just needed a place to sleep. I am used to staying at national chains, like Hampton Inn, but there are no such places nearby. I was also looking for a place conveniently located... More

We visited Colgate University with our daughter, her friend and her friend's parents. We shopped online for a place to stay as we have never been to that area before. Trip advisor reviews were good and the upscale hotel in area was booked. The remainder of choices were b and b's which we don't like. We arrived late and were... More

Stayed here one night about a yearsago. Was underwhelmed. Seemed like a cheaply built, put up in a very short time to house parents of Colgate University student. May be the cheapest place to stay in Hamilton, and it feels like it.

...and you want to stay in Hamilton this this place is okay for 1 night, no more than 2. The local lodgings are all well overpriced. This one, based solely on cost, was the only reasonable choice. If I was to travel to the area again I would simply stay in Oneida or Utica. The hotel was clean. It is... More

We've stayed here several times. It's perfectly adequate for a night or two and better than many of the other places in the area. As other reviewers have noted, it's very convenient to Colgate. I think sometimes people expect too much of a motel located pretty much in the middle of nowhere. We would stay here again.

The bedding is like sleeping on a bed of nails. Hotel is so cheaply constructed that you will not be able to sleep as you can hear other guests in rooms next to you as well as hearing the guests upstairs walking around.

We had a very comfortable stay at the Wendt University Inn while attending our daughter' s graduation from Colgate this past Sunday. While this inn is nothing fancy, it has everything you need to be comfortable and the location can't be beat. We were minutes away from the campus. I would definitely stay here again.

Have stayed here a couple time. The place is okay. Nothing special. Walls seem a bit thin, can hear a lot of noise. Breakfast is provided, but is just okay. Not a lot to chose from

Headed to Hamilton NY for a friend's wedding. There are really only 2 options- this and Colgate Inn. When I called to make the reservation the hotel was booked (so was Colgate Inn). I asked to be put on a waiting list, she said she did but each time I called back it was like the first time. After several... More
