The hotel is nice. The service was the best part. We had an issue with our AC unit in the room and they immediately found a solution. Everyone we interacted with was extremely friendly. Definitely recommend this hotel if you’re wanting a quiet getaway.

The Lambuth Inn is a charming property with peaceful, landscaped surroundings. All staff were friendly and kind. Housekeeping is only available upon request, which I wasn't informed about, so I returned to an unmade bed. My upgraded lake view room was disappointing due to condensation between window panes and obstructed view from rotten balcony wood. The AC unit appeared dirty, so I didn't use it despite the warm weather. However, the Easter Sunrise Service across the street was beautiful, and the breakfast buffet at the Lambuth Inn was delicious.

It’s quite a gem

You know it’s an older hotel that has been maintained and really is just a lovely place to stay in. Ironically, we walked in to see Santa last night, which was a huge plus.

Perfectly acceptable

Pleasant place with easy parking. The room was small with no view but a great price. The gentleman working the check out desk had no information about breakfast options - even the breakfast in the hotel. I felt we were interlopers on a larger group.
