    Hotel Lenhart has long been one of my favorite hotels. It's much, much different than any other hotels. It's old and dated but in the very best of ways. Entering the Hotel Lenhart is akin to entering a time warp taking you back over 100 years. Indeed the furnishings and décor haven't changed all that much in the last hundred years and the family that owned it back then still owns and operates it today. It's an all wooden structure, something that wouldn't be allowed today, but accordingly reserves all the charm of yesteryears. You won't find television in your room, no elevator to help you to the third floor and the stairs and hallways do creek under your foot but that's the way things were back then. One of the most enjoyable aspects of the Hotel Lenhart are to stop by their Lamp Lighter Bar, grab a drink and peacefully enjoy it and the beautiful view of Lake Chautauqua from their from porch just as folks did over one hundred years ago. In rating it, I've rated it not as a hotel but as a "historic all wooden hotel," and as such, Five Stars since old historic wooden hotels don't come much better than this. It' practically a one of a kind.

    This was our third stay at the Athenaeum, and we've now spent the last two years in Suite 8. We've…read morealready booked our return for 2027. Suite 8 has become our favorite room. It has its own private entrance and porch, and it's located right next to the Amphitheater. One of our favorite parts of the week is sitting on the porch in the evening and listening to the concerts without ever leaving the room. We still love the Athenaeum for its history, charm, and unbeatable location. Being able to purchase our Chautauqua gate passes through the hotel is another nice perk. They're printed and waiting for us when we check in, making arrival quick and easy. So why did I lower my rating from five stars to four? Housekeeping has changed noticeably since our first visit. During our week-long stay, the room was never actually cleaned. Towels were replaced and the trash was emptied, but the floors weren't cleaned, the bed linens weren't changed, and the room was never refreshed beyond the basics. We also ran into a maintenance issue. Although the shampoo, conditioner, and body wash dispensers in the shower were full, none of them worked. We ended up buying shampoo and conditioner from the Plaza store and relying on the bar soap provided by the hotel. Neither issue ruined our stay, and we'll absolutely be back. But for a hotel of this caliber, I expect housekeeping and basic room maintenance to be better than what we experienced this year.

    Beautiful hotel and view right on the lake. Love that the rooms were still using regular keys. We…read morecame for a wedding and eveything was set up nicely. Cocktail hour was outside and the Hors d'oeuvres were delicious. Service to serve and pick up plates at the wedding dinner was fast and efficient. Overall the place did an amazing job. Streets are so small but that's because of the amazing history behind the community. Would love to see this place during busy season but enjoyed our stay here a lot.

Great communication was had throughout the whole process. Our room was just perfect for what it was described as on their website. It was very comfortable and clean. We spent most of Sunday on a boat on Lake Chautauqua on a very beautiful day. We ate at EBC and were able to walk around this very quaint little town, which is just about an hour and a halfs drive from Buffalo. I would definitely recommend staying at the Bemus Point lodge to anyone that asks. Adam and Kristi have a great lodge and are making improvements to it since they've bought it a few years ago. They offer boat rentals, kayak launches, a courtesy boat slip is also available. It is a diamond in the making.

I changed my mind after receiving a marketing email from them. W O W! It really had me shaking my head. When we stayed, we reported so many things broken and unusable in our unit it got to be a joke. Important things like faucets and hot water. We HAD to laugh because we were stuck and they were barely responsive. We were there for a family funeral and didn't want to pile onto our family during a hard time. Whoever we were dealing with was super annoyed we found hot water and a working bathroom sink faucet important. Cabinets and faucets were literally falling off in our hands. One thing would break and we'd head into another area and pop...a cabinet knob would fall off. It was something I had never experienced before nor have I again with an AirBnB! To top that fun off, I had called probably a month before to cut our visit short by one night because we were going to need to get to the city to help our daughter move into college her freshman year. When I found that they hadn't canceled that night and had charged us, I contacted them and the person I spoke to said we never had the phone conversation and because I didn't have an electronic record and just trusted their "agent" I was out of luck and they charged me for the night anyway. Beyond lame. The audacity of their sending out their "friendly" solicitation message after their treatment of us during our stay and non-responsiveness afterwards was outrageous. So tacky! If you stay here, keep good records. Hopefully, they've fixed the many problems since our stay and have amped up their customer service (a LOT). I responded to their solicitation email and said basically what was above. Of course, no response. I would find another place, frankly.
