The restaurant leans into Lake…read moreGeneva history in a way that's really well done--photos, cruise captains, and memorabilia throughout. I especially enjoyed the Lake Geneva Playboy Club items. That said, the overall experience didn't match the price point. We went today around 2:00 PM as a party of two, and service was slow despite only about five other occupied tables. The biggest issue: we were initially brought the wrong bill (another table's), and after about 15 minutes, we ended up having to find someone to correct it. Food was average for the cost. The fish tacos were fine but nothing special. The meatloaf was a single slice with less than a cup of potatoes--felt sparse on the plate and could have used another side or component to make it feel like a complete entrée. With one glass of wine, we were around $60, which would be easier to justify if the service and food execution were sharper. One note: while it's "on the lake," the views are fairly limited at lake level--you mostly see piers and the cruise boats--so for us the main draw was the ambiance inside. Unfortunately, the ambiance couldn't make up for average, overpriced food and a service miss. If you go, go for the atmosphere--just set expectations accordingly on value and service.

Everything about this place works together to make you want to return again and again. First of all, it's a live music spot. And that's the focus of everything. But what a spot! Great comfy seats, not a bad spot in the place! The music is never too loud, but it's not so soft you think you're watching TV at your grandpa's place. The bands are generally cover bands, but the owners go to great lengths to find only the most professional cover bands. We've seen impeccable renditions of the Eagles, Supertramp, Allman Brothers, Rolling Stones, Styx, and more! There have been no disappointments yet. Still to come this summer: Chicago and Journey. Yes, I'd rather see the originals, but let's face it - half the bands we love are so old now they'd rather be doing what we're doing: enjoying our retirement. So leave it to the next generation of talented musicians to grab these charts and start wowing us with their ability to rock! You WILL love this place. From the free bottle of water when you arrive to the freshly baked cookies at intermission to the Dove bars as you exit. The owners greet you at the door and their ticket guarantee is unmatched -- have to cancel your seats for the show? They will give you credit to another show, no questions asked!

I was incredibly nervouse for them as the lawn was not yet completed and the insides still smelled of chemicals. Alas, my fears were not needed, they pulled it off and in style. The service was good. The interior beautiful. And having an outdoor patio was a great escape when the inside became loud. Great venue for a wedding.

I had an outstanding experience at The Abbey thanks to Illeyana--also known (and now forever…read moreremembered) as Ms. Goldfish. From the moment we walked in, her energy, attentiveness, and genuine friendliness set the tone for the entire visit. She was on top of everything--quick service, great recommendations, and always checking in without being overbearing. It's rare to find someone who makes you feel both taken care of and completely relaxed at the same time, but Illeyana nailed it. The nickname "Ms. Goldfish" fits perfectly--she kept things fun, memorable, and just a little bit legendary. If you're heading to The Abbey, do yourself a favor and ask for her. Customer service like that is hard to come by. We'll definitely be back!

This resort has taken a significant downturn within the last 10 years. It truly is work to stay…read morehere. The best part of the trip was the time we spent outside of the hotel. From the moment we got here we were inconvenienced. 1. We checked into our room and there was no hand soap, tissues, or conditioner. 2. There are only a few entrances to the resort instead of having an entrance to each building to make it easy to bring stuff to and from your car. 3. The gift shop is crazy expensive, bottled water is almost $4 a piece and a case of beer is $80. 4. The TVs in the room are completely locked down and you're unable to screencast Netflix. Your choices are 30 basic channels of infomercials and $25 movie selections that are mostly from the 90s. 5. The room service for food ends at 10pm and the vending machines were bare, there is no where to go for a late night snack. 6. If you go to the restaurant to order food to go, they won't do it. They'll refer you to calm room service for your room forcing you to leave a tip. 7. If you want a cart to bring your luggage to your car, a bellhop has to supervise you and watch you do it the whole way. 8. On our last day the boiler was down and there was no hot water to take a shower before you check out. 9. We asked for a plate at the front desk to warm up food in the microwave (only one shared microwave is available for each building), and they couldn't find any. In short, this place is like a glorified motel 8 that doesn't truly respect their customers. Their operations are only convenient for them and nothing about the stay was easy. We almost felt like we were in a prison. I did enjoy the stay 10 years ago but we were very disappointed by how it is currently ran.

We'll, God more than delivered - the northern lights occupied the entire west side facing lake Como, with an intensity that the lights were visible to the naked eye.

The staff is more than impeccable especially the front desk manager Anna Simms. The grounds are beautiful overlooking lake Como. It's close to downtown lake Geneva.

There is a shift that takes place as you leave outside life on the road behind you for just a little while. It is a true retreat, for however long you are able to stay.
