It has nice public spaces, including a library with internet access and a large parking... More

Our second visit to The Lake Hotel this year and we were not disappointed. Great hotel and exceptional value and one of the worlds great views. What more could you ask for! Our guests are well travelled, older people and they rated this hotel as one of the best they have stayed in.
