The location is perfect, right on the lake and by down town center, shops and great eating places. Pool overlooking the lake 👍. Very peaceful. Only negative, windows need cleaning so you can enjoy the view.

I loved every moment of my visit to the Lakeside Inn. I was immediately and warmly greeted at the check-in counter, which was so nice. Later, the server at Tremains Tavern was very hospitable and made great recommendations (the tomato pie was amazing!). Housekeeping staff was efficient & always greeted me as I came & went from my cottage. My room was very clean, nicely furnished, and comfortable. I am already looking forward to my next trip!

It's nice for what it is. Great history, breathtaking photo opportunities and just steps away from downtown dining. Cons : Very small room, no microwave or coffee maker (yes there is a restaurant on sight, but not having a mini fridge for my medication was a huge negative) The ice maker not working and having to walk to the office for ice (which is across the street in another building ) is extremely inconvenient. Pros: plenty of parking, location have food you can walk to, lots of history, not bad for the price

Outstanding location and a lovely property. However, the furnishings in the rooms (and the lobby for that matter) are severely outdated. Hallways also had a musty odor. No coffemaker or refrigerator in the room.

The Lakeside Inn is a lovely old inn with beautiful lake views and a great place to stay because you can park and then walk around Mt. Dora to restaurants, shops, and entertainment. Because it's "old" it does need some renovation but the grounds are beautiful.

The hotel was very charming and relaxing had two bars and a restaurant and a kept pool overlooking the water with boat charters available. Once we park the car, we did not have to move it at all. We were within walking distance to everything.

2-night trip

10/10

The hotel has an excellent location, we stayed before and love it! The main hotel is older, the tub was a bit peeling, and one of the mattresses was lumpy but when I told the desk, they were glad it was brought to their attention. They can't fix what they don't know is broken. The grounds are lovely and on the lake.

It was a wonderful couple of days away. Hotel is lovely. Staff very friendly and efficient. Only thing I didn’t like was the thin blanket on the bed.
