The Hotel Lenhart

Beautiful quaint, old-timey feel. It was built in 1880, and has been in continuous operation for all 142 years! Four floors, and since there's no air conditioning (only a box fan in each room) nor elevator, some prefer the rooms on the lower floors that are cooler during the summer and don't require a climb. While we were there, some folks were starting power yard work by like 8am, which, with the little sound absorption/dampening/insulation of the hotel, was loud and woke us up to unpleasant grinding (edging) or mowing noises. Some other people in the town while we were here were boisterous late at night and a boat out on the lake was blasting really loud music keeping lots of folks up. So if that would affect you, be Mindful and maybe request a room that doesn't face the water. While

Cute spot for a drink. Charming, local and historic hotel with a great view of the water. There is a massive front porch with rocking chairs to enjoy your drink and the view of the lake. It was very relaxing and enjoyable to catch up with friends. Affordable drinks and cheap $1-5 options for food. It was nice to get an snack and a drink during these times and not break the bank.

I was there with about 30 family members for a wedding. We definately enjoyed rocking on the porch and laughing together but thats where it ends. The rooms were hot and filthy. The water was yellow so we bathed in nearby Lake Erie. We couldn't open our transom as there was a huge BAT flying around! My brothers room smelled like urine...most likely from the cat that roams freely....my nephew is highly allergic to cats. The bartender was kind but the drinks were weak!!!! No coffee, no soap, rude front desk "BB" attendant. The dining area was closed so no free breakfast as still advertised! Price was $175/ night CASH ONLY for this hotel that should be condemned! The smoke alarms had dead batteries, the electric outlets had no covers and sparked when we plugged in the provided box fan. There

This is a historic treasure, I really hope everybody who reads this stays here at least once. But be prepared that it is a historic place, which means there’s no air-conditioning no elevator but it’s loaded with a charm. the rooms are cool the bathtubs are gigantic the front porch is amazing the chairs on the lawn are relaxing and above all the atmosphere is wonderful. The owners are here talking To the customers and guests, enjoying telling the story of the historic place and even a few ghost stories. Stay here if you can avoid the corporate hotels because until you’ve stayed at a place like the Hotel Lenhart you have not experienced want an original United States hotel was like. I can almost picture myself wearing a suit with my wife in a 1920s dress sitting at the bar.

It's definitely an experience to go there for breakfast. They provide a historical, classy atmosphere. The food is served in courses. You have a set selection for each course, but there is some mix and matching allowed. We got OJ first, then a bowl of freshly prepared fruit. Then eggs with sides. The coffee was OK - but I'm picky about my coffee. The wait staff was dressed in historical outfits. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I'd say the breakfast was pretty standard in terms of quality. It's cash only - 15 for adults. They have an ATM in the building.
