Everything was great in the check-in process and the room. However, we were on the 2nd floor and it was a snowy, cold weekend. So the stairs going up were snow-covered and needed to be cleared of ice and snow build-up. Especially for us old folks!

8/10 Very good

The area in the back would have been very nice if you are traveling with a group/family. We didn't know about the use of canoes until to late in the day for us to enjoy. The room was clean but a little on the small side. I personally don't like the no staff check-ins where they send you a code and there is no one in the office. But, we did not have any issues while we were there.

Incredible! Must stay.

Our stay at Placid Bay Hotel was absolutely amazing! The location is perfect and right on the lake. We stayed at the country comfort cottage and it was super spacious, clean and comfortable! Service and communication was excellent. We can’t imagine staying anywhere else during a trip to lake placid. We will be back! Thank you!!:)

I love this hotel. I like that you don’t have to formally check in ; I was super exhausted when I arrived and having the key code for the room was ultra convenient. The room was cozy and comfortable; it had everything I needed for a great night’s sleep. Bed was perfect… I will definitely stay here again !
