    We stayed here overnight while we were in the area. I called the morning of arrival and asked if…read morethey could have our room ready before the normal check in time since we had an event to attend an hour later and we didn't want to rush getting ready. They said it wasn't a problem and the check in process was very easy with the manager behind the counter upon arrival. Our room had two queen beds, a fridge, microwave, a TV, drawers, and a bathroom with a shower. My daughter stepped on a couple small pieces of glass and pebble stones that was stuck on the carpet in the room and ended up getting a small cut. We addressed it with the staff and let them know since it was very hard to find in the Berber carpet and we had to run our hands in it really good to find what it was. The vacuum cleaner may not have picked it up when they cleaned the room prior since it was stuck in there really good. The continental breakfast is always a nice touch. There was a selection of coffee and juices for the beverages. The food items consisted of a waffle bar, different types of pastries, and breakfast foods to choose from.

    Just writing this as it's obvious that this hotel has had a remodel and maybe a change of…read moreownership. Most of these reviews are years old. It's now the Hampton Inn by Hilton now (maybe was before, don't know) . The rooms are gorgeous. Updated, lovely amenities, nicely decorated, quiet AC, black out pull down shades and light filtering shades, glass barn door sliding shower door, (no nasty shower curtain) large full size mirror, super comfy bed and pillows, nice TV, desk, charging outlets on both sides of bed, mini fridge and micro with in room coffee service. Quiet. Nice staff. Used the phone check in and they have a digital entry key so no need to stop at desk and a tap on phone opens the room door, no more little plastic cards. In its class of hotels and in central Florida 5 stars. Also the little restaurant The Next Corner Tapas and wine bar is excellent. On Owen Street just across the Sugarland a block down on left side. Dint be put off by the weird exterior. Pix below of restaurant, just woke so our room is too messy for pix

    I booked on Priceline, got the largest room available, they called it Apt 1…read more Went into the room and it smelled of mold and mildew. Property full of drinking farm workers. Couldn't breathe so I checked out and went down road to Hilton. Priceline and hotel would not refund the money, shame on you Priceline, long time till I consider using your service.

    The town of Clewiston is located on the southwest bank of Lake Okeechobee, the largest freshwater…read morelake in Florida. It was named for Tampa banker A.C. Clewis, who financed the extension of the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad through the area in 1922. In 1932 Clewiston was incorporated and laid out according to the plans of the Southern Sugar Corp who wanted a showcase city to serve as its headquarters. The town has the nickname "America's Sweetest Town" because of the U.S. Sugar Corporation headquarters here. The Clewiston Inn is the oldest hotel near Lake Okeechobee. The Inn was first built in 1926 by architects L. Phillips and Edgar S. Wortman in a two story Classical Revival style along the waterfront of Lake Okeechobee. The hotel was constructed by the Clewiston Company, the community and real estate development arm of Bror Dahlberg's Southern Sugar Company. Southern Sugar went into bankruptcy during the Great Depression and sold their assets to United States Sugar Corporation which was founded by three former General Motors executives. The hotel survived the 1926 Hurricane and the 1928 hurricane that killed over 4,000 people when Lake Okeechobee flooded causing many people to drown. The hotel was destroyed by a fire in 1937 but rebuilt in 1938 by U.S. Sugar Corp. with thick concrete walls braced with extra thick steel reinforcing rods the could withstand any future hurricanes. U.S. Sugar Corp used the inn to house company executives, customers. and visiting dignitaries. President Herbert Hoover stayed at the inn when he dedicated the Hoover Dike built around the lake, to provide flood control after the devastation of the Hurricane of 1928. One of the most stunning features of the hotel is the the Everglades Lounge and Bar which has a 360-degree wildlife mural covering all four walls of bar. The mural was made in 1945 by artist J. Clinton Shepherd who recreated the animals and plants of the Everglades. He stayed at the Inn for many months and made daily trips into the Everglades to sketch the flora and fauna. The historic mural alone makes this a 5 star visit. I love a good ghost story and the Clewiston Inn has it's share. There have been a number of paranormal investigations here and it's believed there are four spirits who never checked out. They include Anita Conklin who lived at the Clewiston Inn in room 225 and died in 1994. People have reported having their hair pulled outside the room. Other guests mention room 118 where there have been reports of a woman in the window. In 2007 the U.S. Sugar Corporation sold the Inn to Big Lake Hotels. In 2011 the Big Lake Hotels Corporation sold the Inn to Clewiston Hospitality LLC. It is an Americas Best Value Inn. On February 21, 1991, the hotel was added to the U.S. National Register of Historic Places. The five stars is for the historic value of the hotel as I have never stayed or eaten here. The manager caught me peeking in the window and even though the inn was closed he graciously allowed me inside to look around. I got a brief glimpse of the famed Everglades room and even though the light wasn't on I was suitably awed. Returning for a drink at the bar is now high on my list of post corona activities.
