What a charming B&B in Watkins Glen....perfect when touring the wineries. Sally is a wonderful host, making sure all her guests' needs are met. The rooms are quite quaint and each bedroom has its own bathroom (not necessarily ensuite). What can I say about the breakfast except....DELICIOUS! Can't wait to return again.

Friends of ours suggested a B&B for our wine tasting weekend. I was very pleased with Marmalade Cat. I really didn't know what to expect. This place was very warm and the innkeepers were very friendly and knowledgable of the area. Sally was very interesting and answered our many questions about the area and how she came to this area...

Stayed at the Marmalade Cat B&B while touring the Seneca Wine Trail with friends. From the minute you arrive you are made to feel at home. The B&B is clean and well kept. If it weren't for the friendly cat that waits to greet all that enter you would never know that there are any pets. The hostess, Sally, is... More

We stayed at the Marmalade cat for two nights Labor Day weekend. It was a lovely, quirky B&B with delicious food and fun decor. The innkeepers were incredibly friendly and helpful. The B&B is located in an ideal place - blocks from the downtown shopping and Watkins Glen State park and Seneca Lake...about a five minute walk to all. Also... More

We stayed for one night in July, having driven from JFK Airport, we unfortunately arrived very late, but Sally was there waiting to welcome us with a friendly face and a welcome drink. The room was wonderful, like a little piece of Victorian England, and very comfortable. The breakfast next morning was delightful and extremely nice. We have stayed in... More

My gf and I stayed at the Marmalade Cat B&B and it was extremely pleasant. Sally was welcoming and informative without being overbearing. We really appreciated her suggestions and especially enjoyed the great breakfasts. Sally went out of her way to ask about food preferences, etc. and made me a special breakfast different from others (I don't eat eggs.) Very... More

My daughter and I drove up from Manhattan to attend The Farm Sactuary vegan Thanksgiving that weekend. Martin greeted us, and made us feel very comfortable, delightful fellow! Later that day we met Sally, the two cats and the dog, very fun welcoming committee. Sally went out of her way the next morning to make us a delicious vegan breakfast,... More

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our New Years sojourn at the Marmalade Cat. Located in Watkins Glen, it was the ideal location for touring the Seneca Lake wineries (which we also enjoyed), and was still close to many amenities (restaurants, shops, etc). The breakfast was AMAZING and customized to our tastes. Really it was such a comfortable stay!

The Marmalade Cat is a taste of England in the heart of the finger lakes. This bed and breakfast in Watkins Glen is at the base of Seneca Lake and only minutes away from the breath taking Watkins Glen Gorge. It's central location makes it the perfect starting point to begin your magical mystery tour into the delicious world of... More

I was looking for a brief escape from the hectic everyday pace. Walking into The Marmelade Cat immediately settled me into "relaxation". The aura was beautiful, comfortable and inviting. The breakfast was superb and served in a regal setting that would make anyone feel royal. The Victorian detail throughout the inn gave me a mini-vacation into another era in another... More
