Family

The Fort William Henry Hotel is a fantastic destination for a family vacation and a great place to relax with loved ones. Although some changes have been implemented due to COVID, such as no full housekeeping or a small charge for those who require it, the hotel goes the extra mile to keep guests safe. The room and pool were enjoyable, although a microwave would have been helpful to warm up baby bottles. Despite a request for rooms close together, they ended up separated. However, the Lake George area is a wonderful location to stay with family and the hotel is highly recommended to people of all ages. It's clear that many families return to the hotel year after year and it has a cozy, familial vibe at times with people eating in the lobby and coolers on the floor resembling a camping trip. Some grandkids particularly love the cereal and cinnamon rolls on offer. Overall, it's an excellent hotel with plenty of kid-friendly activities to keep the whole family entertained.
