This place was wonderful! The crew was great, the restaurant was very good and it was a small town. We loved the walk around the lake, and enjoyed karaoke with the family at the restaurant. It is such a vool little place and a unique experience. Our family had a wonderful time here.

We loved the look of this hotel. The staff and owner were very friendly and helpful. We did not like that we reserved what we thought was two separate bedrooms, but when we got inside the room the bedrooms were open to each other. The beds were not comfortable. We also did not appreciate that the room was right next to a busy highway so we could hear every car that passed.

Stayed here on road trip heading west. Its a real gem- a totally unique building and hotel in a really lovely town. The hotel checkin was contactless but super easy and the room was unique in a fun and good way. Clean and big enough for one night.

I took my mother to Hotel Defuniak for Mother's Day weekend to enjoy some quiet and a touch of history. I read mixed reviews after booking and was hoping the negative ones were wrong. They were not. We stayed in the Presidential Suite, and it was definitely the worst place I've ever booked. When we walked in, there was dust so thick across the headboard of the main bed my mom was going to sleep in that I had to take toilet paper and wet it some just to wipe it off. Even the comforter had stuff all over the top. In the corner of the room between the main bed and the bunks was a large amount of sand where shoes has obviously been sitting, and the shag rug nearby was filthy. It had clearly not been vacuumed. Around the base of the toilet, there was dried urine in large amounts. Someone also left part of their glasses in the room that were still there, so that tells you how efficient "house cleaning" was. My mom was a great sport with things, but they got more interesting as the night went on and we fell alseep. Someone came into the room- literally through two locked doors. My mom heard the door opening and began waking in time to hear, "There's someone in here." They left, but really? Could not even report this because there was noone waiting when we checked in or out. And we left pretty quickly in the morning. The only plus was maybe Cafe Nola, but even it did not live up to what I had heard. It was good, but nothing that wowed you. The nicest part of our trip was Perla's.

the hotel is truly gorgeous. complete with its own restaurant bar. nice high ceilings, working A/C, etc. The only issue i really had was a room mix up, and the fact that all the staff immediately goes to work in the restaurant so you have to go looking for assistance if you have need of anything.

The hotel is within walking distance to restaurants and the cafe on the first floor was good. The staff there was friendly. As hotel guests, it was frustrating that there was no hotel staff to talk to - especially when we ran out of toilet paper. There was no extra in the room and calling the hotel didn’t get me to a person to ask about the TP. It would have been nice to have someone talk to.

We liked everything about it. The staff went above and beyond. The bed and pillows were wonderful. The room was spacious and comfortable. We love the historic look of the whole hotel. Walking to the lake and downtown restaurants and stores was close by. The attached restaurant was amazing. We will be back

There are many things to criticize, the main thing is the service or lack thereof by the hotel personal, you simply can never find them. I like though to keep this positive, the place does have a nice old style charm. The most positive thing itself is downtown Defuniak Springs, at this time of the year its magical. We enjoed a stroll around the lake tremendously, the lights are beautiful. We came here for the night from the nearby Panama City and came to the conclusion that our much bigger city doesn't offer this kind of festivities. Panama City likes to use Hurricane Michael as an excuse for it's lack of a anything nice this time of the year, anything you find is by individuals and not by the city. My closing words to the hotel, try harder.

It was such a beautiful historic hotel and area. I truly enjoyed walking around the spring and the quaint downtown. Unfortunately, it wasn't as pleasant a stay as I would've liked. The carpets in elevator and on stairway were worn and filthy. The couches and chairs in the lobby looked worn and the color concept needs updating. There are fake dusty plants in the lobby. And, I didn't have control over the thermostat in my room. It was boiling hot at night. I was given the opportunity to switch to a smaller room where the TV didn't work but ended up staying in my previous room. I tried to open the windows but the heater won. Suffice it to say I didn't get much sleep. This hotel has so much potential its a shame its not well maintained. All in all the staff was helpful and nice and the town itself along with the architecture were worth seeing.

The Cafe Nola was excellent, the staff was nice. The room was okay, as the second 'bedroom' was open to the first, and had a creaky, metal bunkbed for kids. Was too expensive. The shower was great, but the room was right by the main road with no 'block-out' curtain (so it was noisy and BRIGHT every time a car drove by. Access to the lake with the walking path was great. A mixed bag, really. I gave the stay a 4, but the room was a 3 and the food was a 5, so 4 is the average.
