We LOVE staying at The Hungry Trout! We ski Whiteface at least once a year, and sometimes go up for hiking in warmer months. This is the only place we like to stay. It's very cozy, clean, comfortable beds, and convenient to the mountain. Getting into Lake Placid is easy, too. Can't say enough good things about it. Although I haven't been there solo, were I travelling by myself, as a female I would have no problem staying here. (Normally, I would never stay alone anywhere with an outside access.)

We had a wonderful time, the hotel it's really close from Whiteface MTN if you like to go to ski. But the restaurant it's something else amazing food and atmosphere I really recommend this place. Hopefully they will update the hotel rooms a little bit they're not bad but they can be better. .
