Inn at the Fairgrounds Syracuse

This hotel is easily accessible from the highway, and also is provides you a way to stay somewhere relatively cheap without staying in the city of Syracuse.

It's only a block from the fairgrounds, so it's nice if you're going to the Fair (although it'll be really noisy then), but you're also close to the Carosel Center, and only about a 10-15 minute drive into downtown (Depending on the traffic/time of day). It's also a great place to stay if you want to take day trips to the Finger Lakes, Skaneatles, etc.

They have dataports/high speed internet and satilite tv in each room, but I guess that's become standard in most places.

They also have a health/fitness facility - also standard in big hotels, I guess.

You can make free local calls up to 30 minutes.

Unique Quality: Rooms are large, beds are comfortable. You can't ask for much more than that.

They have a nice restaurant on the premises. The food there is good, and they have lots of NY State wines.

They also serve a complementary continental breakfast with lots of choices for food!

Directions: Take exit 7 off of Route 690. Turn right at the end of the exit and go 2 miles.
