I will be spending two weeks in Rochester on business next month. Any locals have any advice on where to stay? I am hoping for a area with pubs or other cool hang outs withing walking distance from my hotel. My company is paying for my room so I'm not looking for budget lodging just for an area that will be fun to stay in. I will be working in Victor, but I don't mind driving a bit to get there in the AMs.

Any advice? Any suggestions for things to do? I was last in Rochester in 1988 seeing the dead, so I have no idea what the area has to offer.

Thanks!

depends on what your looking to do..but try the holiday in...start in the lounge...most people are friendly...and would guide you from there...bring your snow mobile...

go with the clarion hotel (great sauna) right downtown ez access to chill bars and the club on water st. and the water st. music hall good luck

Thanks Jeph- I ended up staying in Henrietta. Only three more days to go until I return to the 40 below Alaska weather. It's way to crowded here for me.
