“A traditional hotel with contemporary ammenities”

In simple fact, a traditional hotel setting with todays traveler in mind. High speed internet a big plus for laptop users. Excellent dining facilities at moderate prices. Overall the experience was worth a five star rating. This was my second time here and it was not disappointing. I highly recommend this hotel.

“The best in Lakeland”

This is by far the best hotel in Lakeland- downtown location w/beautiful views of the lake or Main St. - excellent service - wonderful restaurant - upscale, boutique & chic in central Florida!

“Gorgeous property”

My husband & I recently stayed at The Terrace while attending a sports tournament at the nearby Lakeland Center. We were very pleasantly surprised when we arrived at the hotel to discover a beautiful entry, restaurant & lobby. The guest room photo on the website does not do justice to the opulence of the king size room we shared. From the crisp white satin bedding to the upscale furnishings, we truly enjoyed our brief stay. Also, its location in the lovely downtown area was a definite plus. The only thing missing, perhaps, was a lap pool, jacuzzi & sauna (especially for a hotel catering to the business person). Kudos also to the staff - very professional & courteous (the valet service was a nice touch).

“Already planning on going back”

We were truly surprised how wonderful the Terrace Hotel was. We really expected some usual type of hotel, but right from the entrance we were impressed by this stay. Everyone was friendly and courtious-the room was excellent and we usually stay at timeshares so we didn't expect it to be so roomy. Check in and check out was a breeze. They even use Bath and Body Works soaps in the bathroom!!

“If You Are In Lakeland...”

The team at the Terrace gives you an array of benefits. Their personal skills are above any four/five star hotel. Every time I entered the hotel on my four day trip, the stay was there to welcome you home. Good place, great restaurant. If you have to be in Lakeland stay at the Terrace, but book through expedia.com.

“special and historic hotel”

comfortable room, nice restaurant, good coffee in the morning. A few nice places to get a drink and piece of pie nearby

“A must stay if in the area”

I travel frequently and was unable to book a room in Lakeland where I usually stay. I found the Terrace Hotel on Expedia and they were offering a lower special rate than I pay at the local average motel. I was concerned about staying "downtown" in an old hotel but the place had more stars than where I ususally stay so I thought I'd give it a try. It usually takes me two days to get comfortable in a motel and get a good nights sleep. "Night One" was one of the best restful nights I have had in years. The Terrace Hotel is unbelievably clean, by far the most comfortable beds (complete with thick down comforters and very clean sheets), and the best smelling room I have ever stayed in. The staff couldn't have more helpful and friendly, and the local nightlife (within two blocks), food, and spirits were safe, clean, and friendly. Highly recommended and I have found a new regular place to stay in Lakeland.

“Thisolder hotel is like an excellent old wine.”

We have lived in Europe. We travel extensively. I generally avoid older hotels in the US as they tend to be somewhat seedy. This one is a pleasant surprise. It is well kept up. It has aged gracefully. I would definately stay again.

“Very good local hotel”

excellent views and great proximity to downtown attractions

“A bit of pampered elegance at a great price”

This was the 2nd time I've stayed at the Terrace Hotel. The hotel staff was fabulous. They made me feel as if I were the only guest in the hotel. Everyone smiled, joked and made sure everything was just right. This is the ONLY place I will stay in Lakeland! The front lobby was carpeted with poinsettias. During my stay a huge, beautiful, lighted tree gradually transformed with an exquisite fragrance of Christmas. It was awesome!
