This place is a gem. A wonderful spacious room, very clean, good central heating, renovated immaculate bathroom – all this in the upgraded standard room. I couldn’t have asked for more, especially for around $100 per night for my family of three. I didn’t take any pictures because it looks exactly like the shots on the website.
One of the things I liked about Art Devlin’s is that the motel has a personality of its own, much more character than a chain hotel. I think the place embodies some of the character of Lake Placid.
The staff were helpful whenever I asked them for a taxi, directions, maps etc. While I was there, they found a lost glove and tried to track down the owner. Very thoughtful.
The location was perfect for us. Though slightly out of town, it was a lovely walk to “the village centre” and we had a chance to check out the main street. After we hired a car, we found that it made no difference that the motel is a few hundred meters from the centre when you’re driving.
There are plenty of eateries in the immediate vicinity, including the Lake Placid Pub and Brewery (great beer and free popcorn). We also loved the Dancing Bear at the other end of Main Street. And we loved Art Devlin’s!
