If you want to visit the cutest town with friendly people at the hotel and the shops, this is the place to stay. The hotel is walking distance to restaurants, bars, boutique shops, antique shops and entertainment. We never had to use our car and there’s a free ride app to take you around the town too. The hotel has 3 restaurants and gorgeous scenery surrounding it. We loved it!

Hotel is awful. Terrible condition. Worn out. Badly in need of total makeover. Rooms are disgraceful. $350/night & room was crap: filthy carpet, worn out furnishings, no hot water, 1950s style bathroom. What a rip off. I wouldn’t let my dog stay there. Food & bar was way below par. Room wasn’t ready & we arrived 1hour ahead of checkin & still couldn’t have our room ready by check-in time. Hotel should have paid us to stay there. Liquidate it & sell to a real hotel management business. If asked, I’ll share our terrible experience.

Room was apart from main Inn. I booked because I wanted to stay in main Inn. Room was minimal. No chair… toiletries for 1 person not 2. Spoke to desk staff about my desire to stay main inn. Was blown off and told location had same features as inn. It did not. Most disappointed.

Overall, I would stay here again if I went to an event in Mount Dora. The hotel is ideally located within walking distance of everything, it's clean, the grounds are beautiful, the staff is friendly. Weather was too cold to enjoy the big porch with rocking chairs and lakefront viewing, but that was just mother nature. The hotel is "vintage" and is staying with that theme, which is okay. Got no problem with that, however the room, for as much as it cost per night needed some updating - carpet is old and dingy, bedspread was too "grandma" for me, and very little artwork on the walls. Seems as though they could do much better in the rooms. Having said that, the king bed was super comfy, towels clean, etc.

The staff was wonderful, helpful and friendly. Can't beat the location for visiting Mount Dora. The rooms could use some updating. Not much room to keep bathroom sundries (pedestal sinks and narrow shelves in medicine chest), and limited storage in rooms. But overall a very pleasant stay.
