The Golden Arrow continues to be our favorite hotel in our travels. We have traveled in many states and no where compares with the excellent service and down to earth home like experience that you have while staying at this resort. This resort used to be a Best Western and decided to break away. I know of no other resort... More

We have been staying at the now family-owned Golden Arrow on relaxing weekend getaways for years, beginning way back when it was affiliated with the Best Western chain. Its central location means that after driving through the Adirondacks we can leave the car in their parking lot or covered garage and walk wherever we want to go – Olympic skating... More

We come here every year for a week of xcross country skiing with a group of 30 people. They handled our accomodations very efficiently and always with a smile. Would not stay anyplace else when in Lake Placid! More

On the plus side: nice room with light pine furniture, good soundproofing, attractive black out curtains that worked, working fireplace, overall very comfortable. We really appreciated their efforts at being "Green" and for... More

The best thing about this hotel is the location, right on the lake and in town, close to shops and restaurants.The ski hill is 9 miles away. This was probably a great hotel in 1980, when the Winter Olympics were held. Now it's dated, rooms have very old and noisy heaters/AC, old couches in the front desk area, old carpets.... More

Our recent stay at the Golden Arrow Resort was a bit disappointing. We stayed for one night and were excited about the prospect of having so many amenities in one place. We found the beds in the room to be of extremely poor quality. The rooms were clean, but VERY uncomfortable to sleep in. The only place we tried was... More

We stayed here for a night while attending a skating event at the Olympic Center. As others have noted, this hotel is right in the center of Lake Placid. This means it's convenient to the Olympic Center and the shops -- but also means it's not really a quiet retreat. For example, we ate dinner in the hotel restaurant. The... More
