Our stay was wonderful. The staff was outstanding. Anyone who has interest should visit the lounge and order a specialty cocktail from the barkeep. It is a real experience and the live music on Saturday night was great. We stayed in a suite which was pricey but well worth the money. We enjoyed it very much and we look forward to returning.

This place is awesome! Well worth the cost.

Pros: We enjoyed everything about this place!
Cons: I'm a complainer and can't find anything to complain about here.
Location: We hiked Whiteface Mt. and made a few other visits. The town of Lake Placid is dated and needs a revitalization. Whiteface Lodge made the trip great!
We had the best experience, can't wait to go back!

Horrible customer service experience... hold onto your wallet!

The Whiteface Lodge is an over-priced resort run by corporate vultures where draining your pocket is more important than good hospitality. Upon making the reservation we mentioned we had two small poms traveling with us and the agent never said it was a problem .Yet the next day we were stopped in the lobby and were told we needed to have the dogs removed from the property immediately. I returned straight to our room to make arraignments and within minutes received a 'courtesy' call from a nasty individual at the front desk informing us that for every day the dogs stayed we would be charged $. I was not even given a chance to find a boarding place yet! I wasted 1/2 day until l found a place for the dogs and it cost over $ for the weekend boarding.Seeing that it was a weekend we could not pick up the dogs until 4:00 p.m. Sunday which was our planned return date. Boston is a 6 hours drive with a 4 year old so we called the manager on duty to ask for a late-check out. In addition to being unaccommodating with our situation my wife got nothing but nasty attitude from the manager who tried to put the blame back on us. When my wife told her that her tone was very unprofessional, the manager told her the SHE was the one with the attitude! Never in my life have I come across such blatantly rude customer service. As for the late checkouts, we were told for a few extra hours we would be charged an extra half day! My wife works for Westin Hotels and will be sure that everyone she speaks to is warned about the horrible attitude she received from the staff.
