Wasn’t anything like the pictures sadly. I got stuck in a room with an inside view and it was dirty and run down to look out the window. Room was very clean so housekeeping do an excellent job but very tired and needs modernising overhaul, it is like staying in a 70s hotel but to be fair some people like that feel so it just wasn’t to my taste Bedding cheap and poor quality so not a good nights sleep Staff very pleasant Great shuttle service with very friendly and helpful staff! That’s a really great feature and one that’s appreciated Wouldn’t stay there again

Close to the airport, with shuttle pick up, beautiful location on lake hood. Enjoyed watching the float planes land and take off..Restaurant was okay, not as good as I hoped…

Our room had an odd musty odor. The advertisement was far superior than reality. The kicker was that I called from the airport about leaving my makeup bag. They know who cleans on what floor... said it was not turned in. This was unacceptable since I called the same morning I checked out. This is probably the first negative review I have left... you can thank housekeeping for not holding staff accountable!!!

We appreciated the airport shuttle and cozy clean room. The view was wonderful as well. The only downside was having to wait to check in at exactly 3. If they could update that, it would be a smoother process.

We had a lovely stay at the Lakefront. The setting is beautiful, the room was comfortable and clean and staff were helpful. The free shuttle service was great and we took advantage of it from the airport, to downtown and to the train station. My only complaint was the coffee shop was unexpectedly closed but we were able to get coffee at the train station so not a big deal.

Not sure why this is listed as a VIP hotel. Our room was dusty and dirty. Garbage was heaped on the containers we could see from our room. Asked for a room upgrade as a VIP member and was told not available. Hotel parking lot was only half full at 11pm. Had to ask for our breakfast vouchers. Definitely not worth the money we spent.
