Absolutely the finest place to stay in LP. I never stay anywhere else and for good reason. Carol welcomed us with open arms like she always does. She always makes us feel as though we're her finest customers. In the middle of town, the great view and relaxing on the balcony with my paper and coffee in the morning makes... more

This is probably the best place to stay in the middle of Lake Placid if you are looking for value and great location, as well as a very friendly staff. The rooms are very clean and updated, despite what some of the previous guests have said. Most hotels do not offer refrigerators and microwaves like the Mountain View Inn does.... more

I recently had the opportunity to visit Lake Placid and stay at this wonderful motel. The accomodations were great, the view outstanding, and all was done in a very personnal and homey way. Location is right in the middle of town, you can walk to almost everything there is to see and do. Great location, motel, and people. more

This Hotel is a very well groomed inn. The Staff is out cleaning snow and ice all day and night. This is a well run, safe hotel and the value is great compared to the rest of inns and hotels. This review is from someone who has stayed in hotels 30+ nights in the past 4 months.. more

Upon booking this hotel, we spoke directly with the owner (Carol...sp?) who stated she arranged our room to be near another group in our party. The cost was fairly in expensive at $450 for 3 nights stay. HOWEVER, there were three different rates given to the three rooms rented by our party ours being the most expensive. We did not... more

Very nice room. Clean as could be. Loved the balcony despite the spiders. Need exhasut vent in bathroom...the steam, heat and odor made for a difficult start to the day. Bring earplugs on the weekend...noise from bars and partygoers on mainstreet kept me up till 2AM. Just started to fall asleep when the loud street sweeper kicked in around 3AM.... more

We love staying here in the heart of the Olympic village. Each time we come we are treated very well by the owners, Carol and Vic. The room is spacious and clean and the view of the mountains breathtaking. The Olympic center is a very short walk from the inn and with my husband's early morning figureskating lessons, it makes... more

I've stayed anywhere from one to four times a year at the Mountain View Inn since September of 1995. That's a lot of visits! The owners, Vic and Carol Kraus, have always been gracious hosts--and I now count them as friends. The location of the Inn right on Main Street is great, the rooms are always kept spotlessly clean, and... more

Ok, so I did choose this hotel very quickly, based on location, which was ideal, but that is where the pluses for this hotel end. Our stay was marked by incredibly rude treatment from the staff from the moment we walked in the door. They were not considerate regarding their limited parking situation and did not provide simple amenities such... more
