Beautiful grounds. Lovely historic hotel. Needs an update inside. Carpets and furniture are in really bad shape. Great view and location for a visit to the lovely town of Mt. Dora.

We were visiting friends in the Mt Dora area and they told us to try this historic beauty. The building was lovely. Staff was welcoming and efficient. The room was fine for an old structure with beautiful decor. Unfortunately, the floor in our room along with the bed and even the sink faucets were squeaky which got annoying. I guess old allows squeaky but it got annoying. We did not try the restaurant because we were visiting our friends but it looked lovely and you could dine indoors or on their front porch with a view of Lake Dora. We would stay here again on a future visit. Only reason for my 4 rating was the squeaks but probably no way around that on a wood structure this old,

Beautiful, old hotel right on the lake in Mount Dora. She was showing her age but her charm made up for it. I was looking forward to the pool, unfortunately the water was the same temp at the air. Hot. 🥵 not refreshing at all. It looks like they have started a pier renovation/ improvement, but they seemed to have stopped mid way through, such a shame as it looks like it will be lovely when/if finished. It's within walking distance to everything in town so that is also nice. Despite the bathroom door not having any hardware, the water barely trickled out of the sink and the creaky bed, I would still stay here again

We spent a spectacular two days at Lakeside Inn for our 40th anniversary. The manager Mr Hansen made sure everything was special for us, including our Lakeview room, restaurant recs etc. He made sure the flowers I had delivered were in our room when we arrived. All the staff was so nice and it was special being in such an historic beautiful inn.

We stayed memorial day weekend for a family wedding. At first glance it seemed a 10 out of 10. Our suite room had an infestation of termites. When brought to the attention at the Front desk they said they get sprayed weekly. Well clearly spraying isn't helping! They offered to have housekeeping come vacuum them. Within an hour there was 50 more. I resorted to going and buying spray and fumigated the room. Had I not been there for a wedding with 20 other family members in town from out of state we would of been out of there! Staff at restaurants were the most unfriendly service staff ever! Property itself is beautiful that's all I can say!

We came here with a large group for breakfast. It is a pretty, historic little hotel near the downtown area of Mount Dora. The staff are very helpful. The breakfast is delicious, but there are not too many options on the menu. Definitely worth a visit if you are nearby.

We selected a king lake view room. Yes, a lovely view. However we were in the basement. First day it rained. The room flooded 1” on the floor. There are towels everywhere trying to clean up the messThe room was poorly appointed. Like they just threw a few mismatched furniture in at the last minute.Nothing like the picture at all. Smell was musty. This room must flood often. They offered us another room . It was like a shoebox with no view. We elected to stay in our view room, hoping it wouldn’t flood again. There was a dead cockroach outside our door which was never cleaned up after I mentioned it to the front desk. It was not easily accessible at all. I think 5 flights of stairs through the building or an outside path to a creepy back door to the maintenance room then a narrow hall way to our basement room. Not quaint . We were so disappointed. This room should not be used. We were able to see the view rooms on the floor above us( cleaning crew let us peek in) they looked very nice.

The food was absolutely delicious and very reasonably priced. The view of the lake from the porch was simply perfect — a serene and beautiful setting that made the meal even more enjoyable. The service was truly outstanding. Our server, Tiffany, was incredibly friendly and attentive, checking in on us throughout the meal to ensure everything was just right. She took the time to ask where we were from and even offered recommendations for places to visit around town, which added a personal and thoughtful touch.
