Enjoyed the unique experience of staying in an old style grand hotel well maintained and serviced. That we chose a premium room that was spacious and with a lake view probably contributed to our satisfaction.

Not for the typical traveler. That said, it's a beautiful setting, but the accommodations are a bit rough. Could be very stunning if they achieve their fundraising goals and renovate it from top to bottom.

Beautiful location on the Chautauqua Institute grounds. Beautiful lobby, porches facing lake, plenty of grounds to enjoy. The hotel rooms are in need of much refreshing. Cracked linoleum and severe sloping bathroom floor. Carpets very dirty and spotted. Due for updating. Do not count on eating at the bar and snack area in rhe lobby, not in the Heirloom Room for dinner. The three nights we were there, they had weddings and events. So were closed to hotel guests.

The hotel itself is quite lovely. Very old world 1890s era charm and craftsmanship. The room was pleasant and clean, very high ceilings and large windows. The bed was very comfortable. With all that said, the hotel was built before cars. It's very tight and we did not expect to have to park appropriately 1/8th mile away. We are perfectly capable of the walk, and they do offer valet parking and shuttle options. But I feel they should make that known for older folks. Also the bathroom, clean as it was, left me a bit disappointed. Everything worked, but the shower was sad. The staff we dealt with was mostly pleasant and helpful. If you wish to have a view of the lake, you want the East side of the hotel I believe
