Stayed on golf package with my wife. Played at Traditions (The Glen), Conklin and En-Joie. Traditions booked everything, tee times and all. Paid one fee at the hotel, nothing due at courses. Traditions is actually more convenient location to the golf courses than staying downtown Binghampton. Staff was great, super friendly and helpful. Hotel was nice, tons of history - was former IBM country club. The king room was smaller compared to Double Tree where we have previously stayed, but very clean and comfortable. Golf course just feet away, was in very good condition especially considering the near constant rain the area has had since last fall. Free hearty continental breakfast had something for everyone. There is a small bar with limited hours (or you can go over to pro-shop bar/grille) and they offer dining on-site but we did not dine there as we had other plans for dinner. SPA was very nice. We did the Salt Sanctuary and Steam Shower. Quite nice and reasonably priced. The downside vs. downtown Binghampton hotels is you have to drive to restaurants or bars, but they are all 15 minutes away. The other thing to consider is Traditions does lots of weddings, so weekends might be crowded and noisy compared to the weekdays which we did (Wed, Thu, Fri). I would definitely stay at Traditions again. We had a great time there.
