Ulasan The Village Inn of Lakefield

We booked a one night stay, August 23/24, by phone on July 24/24. I requested a top floor room and asked if there was a water view available. I was told no water views but was offered a double queen with a balcony view onto the street which I was happy to accept for approx $180.00 a pm. We were unfamiliar with the hotel and were in the area for a family memorial. We checked in and were sent to the top floor only to discover we were in a parking lot view room with no outdoor space. I returned to the front desk to say there was an error with our reservation only to be told there was no mistake, it was my fault as I hadn’t checked our reservation through,y and didn’t catch missing Balcony designation. We would not have accepted the parking lot view room if we had known. I actually had to call back to the Inn the pm the reservation was made to prompt them to send the email confirmation and that was what I was focused on at the time. I was told our $ could be refunded and we could go elsewhere. Considering the sensitive nature of our visit to the area that wasn’t an option especially on a summer Friday afternoon. I feel that our unfamiliarity with area was taken advantage of and we did not appreciate that at all. Also, besides the poor view, the pillows were terrible, A/C very noisy which disrupted sleep, TV extremely small and accessing hot water was very impossible. The room was clean enough and they allowed us to check in early.

This is a great property situate in a beautiful little town. We choose to stay here rather than with the chain hotels in Peterborough because it was in a quiet setting. The rooms are updated, A/C, shower etc. were all in good working order. Reception staff was very friendly and helpful. The continental breakfast (part of the room charge) is a true continental breakfast. The cranberry orange muffins and cinnamon pastries were really good (fresh and tasty). Good coffee with a selection of teas and hot chocolate were available. There were yoghurts and some fruits available and you could make microwave oatmeal. I would suggest requesting a room at the rear of the property. We were at the front of the building and vehicular noises started with the morning traffic. We would definitely return! It reminded us of visits to Stowe, Vermont.

Very friendly and professional staff, always ready to help. Rooms are spacious and comfortable. They specially take care of hygiene and sanitation. Breakfast was reasonable and served in a nice comfortable area. Overall great service and good value for the money.

Centrally located. Room clean - disappointed many hotels etc., including this one are holding on to the COVID excuse of not making the bed at all or providing fresh towels, unless you ask. The showerhead is antiquated - needs changing. The front desk staff, especially in the evening was terrific and very professional, friendly and helpful

We chose Village Inn as we wanted to be away from the other big brand hotels and crowds in Peterborough. The parking was free and secure behind the building. We chose a room on the parking lot side which was much quieter than the busy street side. The beds were comfortable and the room had all the standard hotel amenities. The breakfast was nothing to write home about - muffins in plastic wrap, fruit cups and yoghurt, but we were there to sleep and was not there to eat the food anyways. There are plenty of good restaurants nearby to have a good breakfast.

A lovely Inn with charming rooms. Me and my sister needed an escape from the city, so we decided to drive to Lakefield in the Kawarthas. The front desk staff were very courteous and quick with our check-in. Our room was quite spacious, and had really beautiful decor. There was continental breakfast in the morning, lots of coffee, and a quick & easy check-out. Lakefield is a very small town, but there were some cute shops to explore, and also a provincial park a short drive away. I would definitely love to come back here.

This Inn was recommended by a family member, and boy am I glad she did. We kinda called last minute, and we’re lucky enough to get a room. It’s not fancy, but is very clean, very comfortable, and very cutely done. Bed was very comfortable..and tho the free breakfast isn’t big or fancy…it’s got all you need. The lobby area was busy, so we just took ours back to our room. Many thanks to the very friendly staff. It was OUR pleasure to stay here.

Just happy to get away. It was a road trip and we visited surrounding towns like Bobcaygeon and Lindsay but always came back to Lakefield for meals. Hotel was comfortable, clean and parking was safe. Friendly staff that always ensured we were enjoying our stay and visit to Lakefield.

Everything was great with the exception of the skimpy breakfast counter. Good parking, clean room and great location. We were on our way to Brockville after visiting friends in Buckhorn so we were very pleased to find this accommodation so close to Buckhorn.

Well located small, boutique, family run hotel in the centre of town. Room was very clean. Hotel updated during the recent covid slowdowns. Our room on the ground floor had a front porch on the sidewalk. Would be wonderful in the summer. Walking distance to shops, restaurants (especially the Loon at the north end of town), groceries (there are a few plates and bowls etc in the room), beer and wine, and the river bank. Only a very limited continental breakfast but there are breakfast restaurants in town of you need something more. Tons of parking out back. Would not hesitate to stay here again.
