Hotel room was very clean. They left an envelope with our key in it , so that was great. No contact with staff but we have been here before so we know where things are. We like staying here at the pines.
Hotel/Rooms are outdated but charming. Room was clean and was perfect for a one night stay that wasn’t too expensive. Beds were nice. No fridge or microwave in room. Would stay again - great location.
Close to main st and easy to access for day hikes and activities

3 foot electric baseboard heater for a 20x22 room with no heat in the bathroom and 10 foot ceilings, no elevator for a handicapped family member, huge initial flight of stairs then 2 1/2 flights. Had to find another place, will seek reimbursement

The Pines was a great stay for a few days in Lake Placid. The hotel was dated but clean and charming. Location was excellent for accessing shops and restaurants.
It’s pricey for an ancient, outdated place but it’s clean, the AC is freezing cold and the showers are hot. The bed was comfortable, it worked well for one night.
We booked this last minute because it was close to the wedding we were going to. The staff was very nice and attentive but our room reeked of smoke and there were stains all over the carpet. We’re also pretty sure we saw a ghost. I wouldn’t stay here again.
