Make the Most of Your Rochester Stay

A legacy of innovation and culture

Rochester earned its place in American history as the nation's first boomtown, powered by the Erie Canal and transformed into a global center for imaging and optics through Kodak, Xerox, and Bausch + Lomb. That innovative spirit lives on—the Strong National Museum of Play houses the world's largest collection of toys and video games, while the George Eastman Museum preserves the founder's mansion alongside the oldest photography collection anywhere. Frederick Law Olmsted's Highland Park showcases his landscape genius, particularly during the Lilac Festival when over 500 varieties bloom.

Distinct neighborhoods worth exploring

The city's walkable districts each offer something different. Park Avenue delivers a sophisticated urban village with sidewalk cafes beneath Victorian architecture, while the Neighborhood of the Arts anchors the cultural scene around the Memorial Art Gallery. High Falls provides the dramatic centerpiece—a 96-foot waterfall tumbling through downtown, best viewed from the Pont de Rennes bridge or Genesee Brew House. For dining, REDD brings Michelin-starred chef Richard Reddington's California-inspired approach to New American cuisine, while the century-old Public Market remains the place for artisanal local products.

Convenient access to regional attractions

The airport sits just 4 miles from downtown. Rochester serves as an ideal base for exploring Western New York—Niagara Falls lies 90 minutes west, the Finger Lakes wine region stretches south within an hour, and Letchworth State Park awaits 45 minutes away. Whether you're here for business or exploring the region's natural beauty, Rochester delivers substance without pretense.
