“Great experience...”

Reviewed 19 May 2013 NEW

It is difficult to find good reviews of hotels at Geneva on the lake because so many are older and not updated. Not so with the Anchor Hotel. The motel rooms were renovated over the off season. Our room was small but we expected that... Enough room for a king sized bed and a small table and chairs and tv... More

“Excellent service and excellent experience”

Reviewed 1 April 2013

Went here last year for a family/friend get together. It was great. The location is fantastic. The place is at the far end of the strip, but it is still easily within 15 minutes walking of even Adventure Zone. The owners were what set this place apart from any other place I'd been to. They were extremely accommodating and they... More

“Good place to throw your stuff and go party but not for sleeping.”

Reviewed 11 March 2013

I am going to attempt to give the most fair review for this place as possible. Mostly because I feel the owners are extremely kind and trying to do a good job. I would highly recommend they watch 'Hotel Impossible' though. It's best to tell this review in a story fashion. I arrived at the hotel and was warmly greeting... More

“Not a good experience but Management stepped up to the plate”

Reviewed 4 December 2012

We had a good experience making reservation and checking in. We were put in Unit #4 at the front of the motel facing the road. It was late Sept and the season was winding down. This is a typical older motel with knotty pine walls and sagging beds. The location is great within walking distance to everything in town. The... More

I just wanted to Thank you for being such wonderful hosts. Our stay at your establishment was nothing less than awesome. You were informative about sites and places to visit.

“Welcoming, Clean, and Perfect Location”

Reviewed 18 June 2012

The Anchor was the perfect motel to book for our trip! My boyfriend and I are in our early 20s and wanted to spend the weekend out on the strip, and the Anchor was literally only a minute walk from the start of the bars. It is perfect walking distance while still being just removed enough for a quiet night's... More
