It is a fantastic place to stay if you are going to be in town for a week! Awesome location and parking is easy. You can walk to everything in town as you are almost right in the middle of it!!! Why stay somewhere else and have to find parking. ||||Owner is fantastic and easy to work with. He runs a great hotel and his staff is nice, too. Everyone that I met staying there was very happy. Had min refrig, air conditioning, microwave and FREE wi-fi. You can rent a house but I heard it was hit and miss as some people were happy and others hated the house they rented as descriptions were not always accurate. ||||Pricing is unbeatable, but as one reviewer mentioned this is not a Marriot or Hilton. But who cares, rooms were clean and laundry room downstairs makes it sooo easy not to have to over pack for the week. I would recommend getting some Tide Pods down the street at the General store. ||||There are only a few rooms so do not wait and if you are considering one of the other brand hotels, I would choose Hotel Pratt every time!||||Ask for CJ and he will take care of you and I know you will be happy like I was and still am!||||There are a couple of bars near by in case you want to hang out for the evening as both are great but if you are with the family you will not be bothered at all.||||If you are in town for baseball you are only 10 mins away from Dreams Park (I would exit right and take a right on Elm and left at Hwy 28...avoids any traffic on Main street) Maybe about 45 mins from All Star Baseball Park. Maybe 2 min walk from...
Read moreI had an extremely disappointing experience at the Hotel Pratt.
The booking process was shady and frustrating; I never received confirmation of the rate despite several promises from the owner, CJ. All calls go directly to his mobile phone, and he is always too busy to call back or send any written correspondence. To date, I have not received any written statement detailing the charges—only a significantly higher amount charged on my credit card statement than I anticipated.
The hotel is misleadingly advertised as it is not a hotel but an old apartment building set behind the original structure that used to be the hotel. My room had bugs, the walls were paper-thin, slow wifi, and the water was undrinkable. And don't park under any of the trees in the parking lot as the sap drips off leaving a nasty film on your car.
There are far better options in Cooperstown, and I feel completely scammed by CJ. I would not recommend this...
Read moreVery nice owners. They worked hard to accommodate our handicap requests. This small hotel is located in the heart of Cooperstown Village and within walking distance of the Baseball HOF, the #1 reason we were there. We booked the room thru Vrbo. The Vrbo app stated that "Pratt" had decks, lake, mountain views, and kitchenettes in the room. We thought what a wonderful place to spend vacation! We arrived at the hotel to find out none of the listed anemities were there! Shame on Vrbo for the fake information. Shame on the New Hotel Pratt for falsely allowing these claims on their property. We overpaid. Most of the village was closed and scheduled to open on or around May 1st. This wasn't mentioned on any of the numerous phone calls as I gushed with my excitement of being in the heart of Cooperstown for a couple of days. Enjoy the pictures of the view and...
