Did not receive daily housekeeping. Asked for clean towels did get 2 bath towels and was told someone would bring us hand towels and face clothes which we did not receive. Had to get our own coffee for the following morning from the office. Cleaning products were very overpowering…. Anyone with sensitivities would not do well. On a positive note the beds were comfortable. We did not feel comfortable here so we left a day early.

Hungry Trout Resort is definitely overrated. There’s no microwave in the room, no lunch service available, and WiFi connectivity is poor – expect frequent drops. The room lamps didn’t work properly, making the stay inconvenient. Despite being advertised as a resort, it feels more like an average motel that shouldn’t cost more than $70–$75 per night. The furniture is outdated, and yes, you might even spot spider webs in the room corners. The photos online are misleading – while it promises a mountain view, 50% of it is blocked by trees, so don’t expect a clear scenic experience.

Nice clean room, comfy bed, good shower, nice pool & swings. Pillows were hard. Grounds were more rustic than the website photos. River was far away. It was not a “patio room,” just a small bench by the parking space. Not “mountain view,” just grass and trees. Restaurant was closed. But good price and ok location. Nice owner.

Beds were crazy noisy - husband lifted mattress and the mattress sits in 1/8-1/4 inch paneling/ply wood that is screwed to framing. Owner said no one ever complained about it - Our entire room woke every time someone moved in the bed so we all slept horrible. There was some mold you could see in the windows etc, pretty outdated. But it served the purpose we needed it for.

Nice clean an

We’s been wanting to stay here for 30 years, and took a long weekend to do so. The Hotel was nice, clean, quiet and comfortable. We wanted to avoid Lake Placid due to the Can Am Rugby games and found this location perfect. It was close to Whiteface and its trails, close to alot of fishing spots, and had a clean pool and recliners to relax with at the end of an active day. The Fly shop is also amazing, and staffed by friendly and knowledgeable staff. Calling the Hotel a “Resort” is a bit of a stretch, but for the $$ we were happy overall.

Unfortunately, we were unaware that the restaurant would not open till Wednesday and was not prepared for that. We brought our dog, so the restaurant would have been beneficial for our stay. Since he go where we go. There is no access to the creek/river. Steep hill. For our vk that was not a wise choice for us staying at HT
