Such character and history at the Lakeside Inn. There is nothing modern about this place and that is what we love. Staff is extremely friendly and you are in the best location to walk everywhere. We will always stay here.

This was our first stay at this hotel, and we enjoyed it. Beautiful setting in a historic venue. Restaurant was good. The rooms are dated (as you would expect from a historical building) but adequate. Our bathroom sink had no water pressure but the toilet and shower were good. Hotel staff were friendly. I recommend the sunset cruise on the lake. We would go back again.

Great location. Really felt like an “Old Florida” place. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Room was in the old part of the Inn. Carpet was a bit worn. Ran out of hot water - was tepid. Otherwise a nice stay in great town.

The staff is very friendly and helpful. You have to be prepared for a 125 plus year old facility. Its very nice however not always quiet. Thin walls and a adjoining bathroom that you could hear everthing from did make it somewhat strange. Overall it is a very nice experience with beautiful grounds!!

Great location, just okay rooms
You are definitely paying for the amazing location and the historical charm. It is within walking distance of downtown Mount Dora and on the lake which is great. The rooms definitely show wear, the bathrooms require multiple flushes. Some of the quirks are charming such as using an actual key to get in the doors and the old time bathrooms. But mostly just seems like benign neglect to the room. Especially for the price you are paying. Would be more comfortable and have more amenities and cheaper at a Fairfield inn, would just not be as conveniently located.

I booked a stay for 3 nights nights for a family of four. I understand that this is a historic hotel however the conditions inside the room is very poor. The carpet is extremely old , sticky and even wrinkled. The little furniture there is, is very old and wobbly . I got a standard room with two double beds. Only 3 drawers for cloths and one small night table drawer , no chair, sofa or desk . I stayed in the gables building perhaps the other buildings are better. The shower had very low water pressure and the room very noisy. The beds were lumpy and linens extremely old . For the good , everything outdoor is fantastic . Very beautiful. The boat tour is great and they let you bring in drinks. Dinning is plentiful and walking distance. Too bad the rooms are not good.

Beautiful property, very historic and beautiful from the outside. I think the inside needs work to be more comfortable and still keep its charm. Room was musty, air was loud, absolutely no counter space in the bathroom and the bedding needed upgrading. It’s the second time we have stayed…can’t beat the location and views!
