Check in was a breeze. The place was beautiful. Loved the old Florida style. We stayed in the Sunset Cottage - third floor. Room was very comfortable and the A/C worked GREAT! Bathroom was spacious! So easy to get around the immediate community. Wish we could have stayed longer!

The property is beautiful, right on the lake and right in downtown Mt. Dora, so walkable to all restaurants and shopping. But because it’s an historic inn, rooms do have a very musty old smell, and the individual ac units in the rooms do not cool down rooms enough.

Lovely oldest running hotel in Fl. Just a special place in Mt Dora. Breakfast on the front porch overlooking beautiful Lake Dora. Walk to shopping and restaurants. Huge pool. Very quiet with great accommodations. Beds were comfortable. Baths were clean and upgraded yet still the old feel of an almost 250 year old facility. A nice getaway.

Love everything just wish they had mini fridge and coffee maker in room. Morning coffee in the lobby is a nice touch but this does mean getting dressed walking downstairs and across the courtyard for a cup of coffee. Staff is excellent!
