You cannot get a better rate at this location with this view! Right smack dab in the center of town. Clean room, great staff! When we saw how expensive other hotels were, with poorer views of the lake, we thought you must be crazy to stay anywhere else. Next time we go to Lake Placid, this is the place where... More

I've stayed at the Mountain View about 10 times (maybe more, time flies!). Every time it is the same...great location, great room, reasonable price, nice firm bed, immaculately clean and wonderful staff. It is right in town and you can walk everywhere. No parking to contend with. I will go to the Mountain View every time I go to Lake... More

Our group rented 3 rooms for conference which were very clean & reasonable. Rooms had sheets that were soft, pleasant-earthy or pastel shades with nice fluffy pillows & comfy beds. (not the normal scratchy white linens) Although 1 of our 3 rooms seemed to be a Full size we were assured it was a Queen size. No Fault of the... More

This is our second time staying here for NCAA Hockey Championships. It is a nice clean place, well kept, and family owned. Rates are reasonable, rooms are comfortable, and it affords a great view of Main Street and Mirror Lake. They do not serve any type of breakfast (coffee is available) but it's a short walk to many eateries. Very... More

We stayed in the cabin. It was awesome. Clean, and large. We only had 2 couples and had 2 extra rooms. The best part was the location. Right next to Olympic Center. Awesome view of lake. The staff and owner were very friendly. We had a great time sitting by the fire place overlooking the lake with the mountains in... More

Last Fall I drove up to Lake Placid with several friends to go hiking Cascade and Porter Mountains. My boyfriend had stayed at the Mountain View Inn before and said that he knew there was a cottage on the property we could rent. We did so, and we loved it. There are 3 bedrooms and a very large downstairs room... More

Mountain View Inn is a great location within walking distance of everything downtown. It is very clean and reasonable compared to other hotels in the area. We have stayed there 3 times and enjoy the "Mom and Pop" kind of atmosphere.

Perfect location, walking distance to many restaurants and winter activities including the olympic skating oval, pickup hockey on the lake and the tobaggan chute. The motel room was clean and comfortable, and the property seems to be kept in good condition. Great value.

Staying here for family day weekend I can stay this is a case study in how to keep a hotel in good shape. Everything wasn't brand new, but it was all in excellent condition and well taken care of. In fact it's probably one of the cleanest places I've ever stayed in. Sometimes you get a feeling when you're in... More
