What guests think

A very pleasant stay. Room was clean and restaurant was very good. Ate outside on the veranda. Have both an indoor and outside pool and an outdoor hot tub. No elevators, so if you cannot climb stairs, that would be an issue.

Beautiful property. Everything has gone smoothly with check in, relaxing in the pools and hot tub, and meals. We were fortunate to be seated with amazing views on the deck. Our meals were delicious. Our staff in the outside dining area and the bar area were friendly and efficient. We drove to this area from the east side of the state and booked this place through Expedia and we are beyond please with our stay.

This old porch hotel still has it! The staff folks are real people who solve issues. Like everywhere they are a bit tight on numbers of staff. Families were enjoying themselves as were couples. Clean. Only complaint—too controlled on outdoor pool hours. Open 7am, not 9am, and don’t close pool at 5pm. They have also an indoor pool.

I have been coming to the Summitt since the mid 80's. LOTS of special memories Love the history of the Summit Hotel. Alot of changes through the years but the place still has some of its old charm left. It is a relaxing place to unplug from the fast pace world. The porch has some of the best sunsets ! The pool is refreshing and relaxing with a beautiful view ! I always choose a summer stay to enjoy the pool and a Fall trip is a definte time to stay as well. !!

This property is a historic gem built in 1907, but with modern amenities. The view from the outdoor pool overlooking the valley was worth the stay! The bar and veranda dining options were scrumptious and appreciated, as everything else within 5 miles seemed to be closed on a Monday/Tuesday. If you’re from Florida and missing the lightning bugs, they are everywhere on this property! Also, this proud 20 minutes away from white water rafting!

This historic property is a gem in the Laurel Highlands.Charming building and excellent bar/ restaurant. Spectacular sunsets from the veranda. Some rooms better than others - ask for a room with a view. No elevators and many stairs so ask for first floor accommodations if mobility limited. Close to many local parks and attractions yet quiet and national park lodge like.

This is a beautiful old inn with a great pool and hot tub that has spectacular views. The dining menu was disappointing in that it is neither diabetic friendly nor gluten-free-friendly. Other than the menu, we loved this hotel.

It was a very beautiful view but the room was terrible. It smelled like musty old basements. The AC had mold under the plastic, cobwebs behind the curtains and the carpet was bumpy and dirty. The bathroom was clean and it was very quite which is nice. The bartender was sweet and very nice, as well as the front desk staff. Fresh hot coffee in the AM, yummy. We needed to check out a day early and neither expedia or the Hotel would accommodate. Expedia said they contacted the front desk and the front desk said they never got a call, hum.....Anyway, once was enough for us.

This is hard to review. The dining and view I would give a 5/5; however the hotel room and experience with that was a 1 or 2 out of 5. I wasn't going to write a review and emailed the property with my concerns. I emailed just to give feedback and never heard back. That tells you a lot right there for their care for customers. Again dining at the resteraunt, could not have been better and the view amazing. First hotel room had unidentifiable object dried up on comforter, was moved to another room with way more issues but my husband was so tired, I didn't feel comfortable complaining again. The hotel rooms: unidentifiable items in beds, bug in tub, unclean windows, musty air can't breath, door separated rooms can hear everything next room over, old poorly painted up patch on ceiling of room...bad experience.

The hotel’s common area are lovely and the room was comfortable. Nice hot water in the bathroom. Breakfast food was very good. Be aware that this hotel has multiple stairs and NO elevators. Not even a bellman/woman to help you with your luggage. The breakfast is ordered at a walk up counter, no substitutions allowed and the customers need to gather their own condiments. Staff is in need of customer service training.

Great place to be if you want to see the several area sites such as Falling Water, Kentuck Knob, Fort Necessity, and the many streams and other. the Summit has a great Staff. it is a lodge built in 1907 with many famous travelers from the past having stayed there. The facility is Ok, but needs some sprucing up. We greatly enjoyed our stay, the pool, the dinners and the bar. We would stay again.
