Very slow draining tub.
Ed G.

My 13 year old son nicknamed this place the Tiki Toilet. He's not too far off. The bathroom in our room was disgusting and not clean. The toilet seat had a pice of used toilet paper stuck to it and the floor was grimy with debris in various corners. As an added bonus the tub was very slow to drain. Overall the hotel is very run down and in need of a major overall. The only bright spot was the friendly staff. If you're looking for a nice clean place to stay move along this place ain't it.

This resort offers two very different sides: the hotel and then the motel. We booked the júnior suites in the hotel which included 2 Queen size beds, a microwave, small counter top with sink, separate area with pull out couch, jacuzzi tub, hair dryer, safe, coffee maker, and outside patio. (Sidenote: Always book for the hotel side as the motel dwellers encountered an issue which left them without running water.) We arrived early but were not allowed to check in until an hour prior to check in. We were able to use the indoor and outdoor pools as well as other facilities in the interim. Skip the indoor pool as it's mostly used by the kids and why would you want to be indoors in the glorious summer heat? The staff was friendly and very informative when asked. They generally give you your space-- which I like. There is an extremely cheap breakfast option on-site which you should take advantage of. It will not blow you away but it is composed of the basics so that you can be on your way. Btw their coffee is amazing! Again, this place is not the Ritz but the beds are super confortable and they are genuinely interested in making your stay the best it can be. It is close to the Lake although a bit on the Edge of the town. This worked for us as we didnt want to be in the middle of the commotion so that we could do our own thing. It would be nice if they advertised their karaoke and other evening events more but we definitely made the best of it. Dont forget that the polynesian show can be purchased WITHOUT the dinner option! See ya there!

I stayed here for a few nights and it was a decent place. I'd stay here again since the location is a decent walk to the lake and easy access to the pier and beach. ** please note that parking near the beach can cost $8 an hour by the Around the World mini Golf. $15 for the whole day at the parking lot across from the pier or $10 with a proof of purchase from the boat tours ** Also the walk to the main strip isn't bad for those that enjoy a lengthy walk. The outside was kept clean and looked inviting. The scenery was nice and relaxing. As for the room, it could have been much better. The bathtub had two bars of soap left over from the prior occupants, the telephone wire was exposed hanging out from the wall (it wasn't even plugged in) and the night table wasn't sturdy it wobbled when you'd put anything on it. Also my main issue was that none of our towels would dry in this room. Even with the vent on in the bathroom. The towels provided are 85% polyester and 15% cotton which explains why they don't dry very well. I followed other occupants with hanging them outside to dry on the chairs and fence. Also the Wi-Fi wasn't consistent and I gave up and just used my data since that was more reliable. Also the ice machine never had enough ice. We went out at 11:30pm there was only one cube then the next evening around 6pm and there was only a cup of ice available. The resort offers $5 vouchers to anyone that selects their eco-friendly option to not have the housekeepers to remove the sheets. This saves on the cost of water and etc. However it appears that by excepting the offer, that means no housekeeping at all. We needed to call the front desk for new towels once the towels never dried after two days. Then housekeeping never can by to change the garbage and every night we needed to remove our garbage into the can outside of the room. They determine the vouchers from he length of your stay. I accepted the offer and received the vouchers for use at the restaurant. We mainly only ate breakfast at the resort. The menu is basic and not much of a showstopper but the food was decent and came out quickly. The waiter and waitress we had during our stay were nice and friendly. There was no issues redeeming the vouchers which was a huge plus. The outdoor pool was 4ft to 5ft and was a lot of fun. They provided pool noodles and extra towels were placed on the table for anyone who might need them. There also was a 12 inch deep pool to the side of the main one with is great for kids that are small. The indoor pool looked awful and very uninviting. Right next to the outdoor pool was a recreational area for a BBQ with picnic tables and a small jungle gym for the kids to play on. Overall there were a hits and misses with my stay although after writing my review and reliving my trip I would stay here again. My family enjoyed themselves even with the small hiccups. There is room for improvements

Place is Worn down. We came on Memorial Day weekend they weren't ready for guess obviously. The outdoor pool wasn't ready wasn't ready on a Friday and still hadleaves at the bottom of it when we went down there at like 3 pm. The walls are so thin you can hear everybody's business in the room next to you on both sides. Inside pool which is supposedly heated felt cold and I had a dirty feeling when I came out of it. The whole hotel smells musty and damp. They need to reinvest money in this place. for the price I spent I don't think I got my money's worth other than it being in a good location. I probably won't come back and use this place

**PLEASE READ IF YOU ARE CONSIDERING STAYING AT THIS HOTEL** I wish I could give half a star, which I feel is the most appropriate rating due to the fact that the people I dealt with at this hotel were not hesitant in helping my girlfriend and I. This is the only pro. My girlfriend and I decided that since we pass this hotel every year on our annual trip to Lake George, that it would be cute to try it. On the outside, the concept is adorable. Fake palm trees and all. We checked into our room late afternoon, put our things away, and headed right out to Lake. When we got home later that night, we went into the shower only to find HAIR. We grew weary and started checking everything. Hair in the sink. Hair in the tub. Hair on the walls. Hair on the ceiling. Pubic hairs too. My girlfriend went to go turn on the A/C, just to find dirt, little bugs crawling around, and what we seemed to be hardened mouse feces. We also took note of unrecognizable stains on the walls. I automatically picked up the phone in the room, just to realize that there is no way to call the front desk from there. I had to use my cell phone to call the hotel number. I spoke to Lori, and she was very understanding of the situation. I explained that we were highly uncomfortable staying in a room under these conditions. She gave us the option of switching rooms, assuring us that this floor had a different maid, so that the new room should be more sanitary. We packed our bags and moved rooms. Upon entering our new room, we checked everything. The A/C vent was sparkling. However, the hair was still an issue. In the sink. On the walls, etc. We decided that since it was already 11:30 at night, that there was nothing more that we could do and just hope that nothing else was wrong with the room. My girlfriend and I, GUESTS at this hotel, cleaned up these hairs and went to bed. The next morning, my girlfriend was brushing her teeth, when a full blown CENTIPEDE flies straight out of the sink drain, and lands on the carpet in front of me. There was no drain stopper. We decided we needed to get the hell out of there ASAP. We spoke with the manager of the hotel, Kathy, and she sincerely apologized and told us we would be receiving a full refund. The fact that we had to act as maids, switch rooms, and lastly switch hotels, was a huge inconvenience to us. We should have read the reviews more in depth before choosing Tiki, because cleanliness seems to be an ongoing issue. Wouldn't recommend.

Mid Century Modern Kitsch Hotel- this is a must see/stay piece of post WWII America roadside attraction! Traveling with friends we stopped at The Tiki. Staff was pleasant & helpful. Rooms were across from the outdoor pool. Pool was clean. And a small playground next to it for the little kids. Rooms are a little small but people have become larger since the 1950's. Rooms were very clean beds comfortable with lots of hot water in the shower. Mini bar was a good touch. Outside chairs by the door like the old school motor lodge it is. Indoor pool was awesome especially after a long drive. Oh, and there is Polynesian music piped in 24 hours at both pools & banquet room. Breakfast food was reasonably priced. Since it was the off season room price was really good - dinner show wasn't available until July but we enjoyed this place very much! It's not the Hilton but it's way more fun & nostalgia filled history than an upscale big box hotel. Will definitely stay again!

We had plans for Lake George this memorial weekend. While browsing their website for accommodations, I happened to discover their Polynation Dance. So called these guys for accommodations as well as the dance show. Somehow I reserved only for the dance show. This dance show comes with dinner for 42$ or so per adult. And dance show alone was 25$ per adult. So it was saturday and we were in Lake george, the same evening we were at tiki resort to watch the show. Since we guys (2 friends, my husband and myself) had only reserved for the dance show we got there by 7.30pm. We all reached the place by 7.20pm and walked towards the lobby...... The staff on board guided us to the Auditorium. This place is huge when compared to other places for Accommodations. We were in the auditorium and almost all the tables were filled. So we had to take the last table which was close by the bar and away from the stage. The show started by 7.45... This was much like the dance shows in the cruise. It is performed by a family. The head of the family was basically playing the guitar, his two daughters were the main dancers. His son in law was a drummer. His wife too danced for 1 song. There was a little girl of aged about 4 or 5 who danced as well and she was his gran daughter. All together they performed for 5 songs and there was a little talking session with the audience too. The team was great and all the performances were absolutely stunning. I must say the best entertainment in Lake George. For 25$ it was worth seating this show. Let me tell you, they only take reservations over the phone and you walk directly to the show, you pay the waitress the dance show charges / Any charges. We got couple of books which were on the newspaper stand in our lodge. This book had some coupons and this dance show had a coupon too. So look for such books to get some coupons and save a little ;)

Horrible. Dirty,run down, outdated, and unkept. That's just a few words I have to explain our stay at "the tiki"! By far the worst place I've ever stayed. Their website is a joke! Had they put an actual accurate description of the place they would have zero guest! I feel they should list on their website the fact that you only get 6 channels and are all local so basically this place is too cheap to get any sort of cable. They also do not have internet at all! This day and age to not have cable/net at $130 a night is absolutely,positively ridiculous!!! Next they do not list anywhere on their joke of a website that the Waikiki super club is only in the months of July and August! Next the pools are disgusting. The outside one is freezing because obviously this cheap place doesn't have a heated pool and the one inside is in a creepy,smelly basement with absolutely no air or breeze so you get a headache and sore throat from the massive amounts of chlorine they dump in their to avoid cleaning. Next I'll get into my room itself! Disgusting! There is a door in the room the goes to the next door neighbors so basically you an hear their entire conversation and tv all night long so forget about sleeping. Also there is about a inch and a half step to get into the bathroom so if not looking in the middle of the night you stub your toe which I, my husband and 2 year old all did! In conclusion this is by NO MEANS a resort and rather a over priced roadside dump motel! Stay somewhere else all I have left to say!

The room had two king beds, a small miracle for a man accustomed to one, and the soundproofing was a triumph of human engineering. Even with Oktoberfest raging below, once the balcony door was closed the silence was so complete that I could almost hear my own thoughts apologizing for existing. The hotel sits right on Canada Street, which is the main artery of Lake George's little heart. Shepard Park is practically across the street, full of families, music, and the particular chaos of people on vacation trying to have a perfect time. The staff managed to stay cheerful through it all, smiling with the kind of sincerity that must come from good training or good souls. Parking was a game of Tetris, but I was grateful for the garage. Once my car was wedged in, I had no reason to drive again. Everything that mattered was within walking distance. The rooftop terrace deserves a poem, though I am too lazy to write one. The lake spread out below, blue and calm, and for a few minutes I believed in peace on earth. There is no hot tub, which feels like a crime against nature. The patio outside the pool almost begs for one. Imagine sitting there in January, snow falling into the water, steam rising like forgiveness. The restaurant did not thrill me, and the prices made my wallet flinch. Still, it was a fine stay, the kind that makes you feel momentarily better about the human race before the bill arrives to remind you of reality. Four stars. A lovely place, too expensive for what it is, but worth remembering all the same.

We have been coming every winter for the past six years and have made some terrific memories here…read more There is so much I genuinely like about this place. The location is convenient and feels like part of our ritual now. The staff are almost uniformly kind and welcoming to our kids and us. They remember us, greet us cheerfully and make this feel like a home base. The outdoor hot tub was a particularly welcome amenity on this past brutally cold weekend and it helped us warm up a chill that seemed to go straight to our bones after time outside on the lake. It really is one of those few places that feels like a welcome retreat no matter the weather. If there weren't any flaws, this would be a much easier review to write. But there are flaws, and they are things that should have been tended to long ago. The rooms have definitely seen better days. Many of our dresser drawers barely opened. The refrigerator was hardly cool. Furniture had visible damage and some of the electrical outlets were non-functional or battered to the points that plugs fell right out f them. These are not deal breaking in isolation but taken together they left us feeling that the room was tired and poorly maintained. A little thoughtful maintenance or investment here could go a long way and make the rooms feel a lot more comfortable. Another disappointment this year was the breakfast buffet at TRs Restaurant. In years past it was a highlight and something our kids looked forward to to prepare for a cold morning out. This visit, the quality seemed to have declined and the selection felt smaller. The restaurant itself still has a lovely lake view and a cozy fireplace, and the service was still friendly and attentive, but the breakfast spread did not live up to our memories. So I find myself landing on a three star rating. If you take this place for what it can still be, it is a wonderful family resort with great staff and some truly nice amenities. But right now the condition of the rooms and some of the public areas combined with the breakfast experience hold it back from being the much stronger destination I know it can be. Here is hoping that ownership puts some money back into the property so it can recapture its full potential.

What started as a simple trip turned into something much bigger a weekend that's about reconnecting, laughing, catching up, and picking up right where we left off every year. By the time the Super Bowl rolls around, it feels less like a trip and more like a reunion. The first week of Winter Carnival just makes it better. The ice bar, great food and drinks, the energy around the resort and town it all sets the tone for an unforgettable winter weekend. A huge part of why this works year after year is the people who make the place feel like home. Courtney, the general manager, keeps everything running smoothly and consistently she sets the standard. Tyler and Nicole at the bar are always a big part of the weekend, and Becca and Tonya at the front desk make arrivals feel easy and welcoming every single time. Even in the heart of winter, the place is always spotless thanks to Keisha and her housekeeping crew something we appreciate more than most people realize. Sixteen straight Super Bowl weekends, countless memories, and friendships that keep growing. Some traditions just stick because they're done right. Can't wait to see everyone again at the Holiday Inn Resort Lake George. Already counting down.

Our food came out with a pretty big gap between plates, I was finished with mine by the time another in our party got hers. I will say they were very gracious seeing as we were a half hour late. Food: Pretty underwhelming, you could get similar or better food at your local diner. Menu is somewhat limited as well especially for sides and drinks. I got the french toast, it wasn't very moist at all, uninteresting flavor, the strawberry garnish was dried up on the inside so must have been left out for a while, bacon was fine, maple syrup was good. I had a few bites of the omelette which was good and home fries which were on the dry side and without much flavor. Value: It wasn't too expensive thankfully despite being marketed as a 'fine dining experience' I'd say value was about even with the low quality food, french toast was $11. Overall definitely would not recommend, you could get better food at a diner or cafe.

The Heritage grounds are absolutely perfect - clean, fresh, and well maintained on every level. The pool was clear and clean, both in and around the gated pool area. I truly love that you have the option of playing some shuffleboard or corn hole as you dry off from all the cannon balls you did in the pool. The fire pit is my personal favorite, and love this as a perfect night cap to sit and listen to the songs of nature or music from your phone! If you check in on Yelp, don't forget to claim your s'mores kit! I'm a sucker for s'mores! The room we had, Room #118, was a really quiet room. The housekeeping did a great job preparing the room for our arrival, and cleaned it to perfection on days we wanted the room made up. Our room was equipped with two queen size beds, so there was no cover hogging on this trip. The bathroom is on the smaller side, but comes complete with everything you would need for a getaway. The heated lamps in the bathroom are a nice touch, especially on cooler nights. Our shower had a continuous leak that we couldn't adjust, so we had to let the water drip; we couldn't hear anything over the AC, so that was fine with us. The continental breakfast is on the sweeter, more sugary side, and we honestly decided to explore other options for breakfast to better start our day. If we were going to be bad eating this vacation, we wanted to make the calories count - like, ice cream every night for example. The staff and overall spotlessness of the Heritage is what really made us come again for the third time in a row; we will see you again soon!

I went for a family vacation with my wife and our 7-month-old baby. The first day seemed fine, but once nighttime came, things went downhill quickly. Every time someone in the building flushed a toilet or turned on a shower, we heard loud, aggressive banging noises coming from the walls. These bangs were so forceful that the headboards on our beds actually shook. The noise continued late into the night, keeping our baby awake until about 3 a.m. when other guests finally went to bed. The next morning at 8 a.m. I went to the front desk to request a room change. I was told nothing could be done until a manager arrived at 10 a.m. When I returned at 10, I was told it would actually be 12. By that point I had reservations for a steamboat ride and couldn't wait around. When I got back later in the evening, around 6 p.m., the manager finally offered to move us, but by then it would have been a major hassle to pack and move all of my baby's belongings with an early departure the next morning. After leaving, I reached out by email hoping for some kind of resolution or at least acknowledgment. Instead, I was told that "no one else complained about banging pipes," which essentially dismissed my concerns. To imply that a guest's issue is only valid if multiple people complain is incredibly unprofessional. Overall, Surfside at the Lake failed to provide a restful stay, offered very little support in the moment, and showed poor customer service afterward. For anyone considering a stay, I would strongly encourage looking elsewhere in Lake George -- there are many hotels in the area that value their guests' comfort and take responsibility when problems arise.

We were so excited to stay here. They have their own beach - but when you sit in the chairs you…read moreslide down because the beach is a hill. The noise level after 11pm is out of control! I could literally hear the conversation in the next room, not to mention the bass in the rooms by the lake. When I asked for my room to be moved I could for a fee!!!! NEVER AGAIN WILL WE STAY HERE!!
