The property is in walking distance to the beach and lighthouse. We were able to enjoy the sunset right after supper. It is updated, clean, and with friendly / helpful staff. There are also plenty of gift shops & restaurants nearby. Two thumbs up !

It was clean. No ironing board. Not many room amenities really. Shampoo and conditioner in a small squeeze bottle. Had to go downstairs to get anything, like ice or a second towel.

The food at the restaurant was great . The server was attentive to our needs . The room is good but needs a few updates especially in the bathroom . The door was hard to close and the shower curtain fell off while I was taking a shower . But otherwise we had a good stay .

Restaurant wasn’t open. Should have sent a message apologizing/alert, We had the smallest bathroom I’ve ever seen. We also got the smallest room on the property. Not a great value. Will look elsewhere, the next time we visit Frankfort.

Lovely place to stay!

Have stayed at the Frankfort Hotel 3 times! It’s charming! Every room is decorated differently, as seen on the website. Staff are friendly & attentive. Parking is on-site & free. Room & common areas are very clean & quiet. It’s an easy 5 minute walk from the hotel to the Lake & beach in one direction & to the shops & restaurants on Main Street in the other direction. Can walk all the way up & down the busiest section of Main Street without moving your car. It’s a lovely place to stay!

Delightful with a perfect location

Excellent little hotel right in the center of everything Frankfort has to offer. It is next to a theater and a brewery. Just a block from coffee shops, ice cream shops, and cafes. And only 2 blocks from the beach. The place has a unique style and every room is different. Our room was clean, spacious, with a great stone-tile shower. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We were staying the weekend for a friends wedding celebration. I would definitely stay here again.
