Our group rented 3 rooms for conference which were very clean & reasonable. Rooms had sheets that were soft, pleasant-earthy or pastel shades with nice fluffy pillows & comfy beds. (not the normal scratchy white linens) Although 1 of our 3 rooms seemed to be a Full size we were assured it was a Queen size. No Fault of the... More

This is our second time staying here for NCAA Hockey Championships. It is a nice clean place, well kept, and family owned. Rates are reasonable, rooms are comfortable, and it affords a great view of Main Street and Mirror Lake. They do not serve any type of breakfast (coffee is available) but it's a short walk to many eateries. Very... More

We stayed in the cabin. It was awesome. Clean, and large. We only had 2 couples and had 2 extra rooms. The best part was the location. Right next to Olympic Center. Awesome view of lake. The staff and owner were very friendly. We had a great time sitting by the fire place overlooking the lake with the mountains in... More

Last Fall I drove up to Lake Placid with several friends to go hiking Cascade and Porter Mountains. My boyfriend had stayed at the Mountain View Inn before and said that he knew there was a cottage on the property we could rent. We did so, and we loved it. There are 3 bedrooms and a very large downstairs room... More

Mountain View Inn is a great location within walking distance of everything downtown. It is very clean and reasonable compared to other hotels in the area. We have stayed there 3 times and enjoy the "Mom and Pop" kind of atmosphere.

Perfect location, walking distance to many restaurants and winter activities including the olympic skating oval, pickup hockey on the lake and the tobaggan chute. The motel room was clean and comfortable, and the property seems to be kept in good condition. Great value.

Staying here for family day weekend I can stay this is a case study in how to keep a hotel in good shape. Everything wasn't brand new, but it was all in excellent condition and well taken care of. In fact it's probably one of the cleanest places I've ever stayed in. Sometimes you get a feeling when you're in... More

We and another couple stayed in our favorite hotel. Excellent accommodations as always. Quiet both evenings and cozy as ever. Perfect location and close to everything we love about Lake Placid. The only thing we dislike is having to leave. See you soon. thanks for everything!! Andy/Donna- Paul /Yvonne

While the location is great, the room and service was disgusting! The Mold smell in the room is a health hazard. It was disgusting! The front desk employee ran to turn on the heat before we entered the room. Once I entered the room, it was obvious that he did that to dry the moist & moldy air. The most... More

We appreciate your review. It does seem strange nothing was mentioned about the mold (where?) or bug until the issue of the second night was mentioned. One of our busiest week-ends we were called at least 5 times during the day to see if we had re-rented the room as we always refund if we can re-rent the room. After... More

This motel is in a great location in Lake Placid! It is convenient to everything and the staff is very friendly! The rooms are clean and comfortable.
