Beautiful older hotel. Excellent staff. The restaurant has great food and a relaxing atmosphere overlooking the river. Walls are pretty thin as you can hear conversations in the halls and adjacent rooms.

A great hotel in a great location
Our three-night stay was truly rewarding ...with a well appointed and spacious room ( 101 ) , a warm and efficient service from all members of the team and the food was so good ( Including breakfast ) that we had our three dinners at the hotel with the extraa benefit of being taken care by Joey who is really the perfect host and the best possible ambassador for the Lakeside Hotel. Quality / Price ratio really good....We'll defnitely be back.
