Art Devlin's Olympic Motor Inn Review

If you enjoy the kitsch value of Lake Placid, you'll adore this small hotel just 3 blocks from the Olympic Center -- in the lobby, you'll find some 450 trophies and medals from ski jumper Art Devlin. Now run by Art's son (also Art), this hotel is a little less than extraordinary, but a good-value option. Rooms are simple but spacious, and painted in nice bright colors. Some give you a glimpse of high peaks, even from a balcony, while others look out onto the less-romantic parking lot. Rooms in the back building are bigger, but you should splurge on one of the "upscale" rooms, added in 2007. The best ones have plasma TVs, 180-degree-view balconies, Jacuzzi tubs, and lots of space -- one of the best values in town.

Facilities:
Heated outdoor pool (summer only)

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
