We stayed here for 1 night in 2023 and liked it so much that we came back for 13 nights in June. The room was spacious and had everything we needed. Having a washing machine and tumble dryer in the room was a huge bonus. The housekeeping and cleaning standards were exceptional, in our room, the breakfast room and all communal areas. All staff we spoke with were helpful and polite, including the reception staff, especially Becky. The breakfast is very well managed, with stock levels being topped up when required. We really enjoyed the selections of hot and cold choices. The car park had plenty of spaces and we never struggled to park. The restaurant next door was very good, with a great choice of options.

We loved everything, but if I could change anything, having a safe in the room would have been very good.

Staff was very friendly anytime you passed by. Room, hallways, dining area, lobby, gym and general use bathrooms were spotless. Very nice Amish pictures and arts posted throughout the hallways. Very quiet place to get a rest after a busy day. Breakfast was your typical free hotel breakfast with a bonus, fresh donuts and bread from their bakery next door at the Der Dutchman restaurant. You can also upgrade (for an added fee) your breakfast and visit the breakfast buffet next door. We chose just to eat the hotel breakfast.

Wifi was available throughout the hotel, but if I wanted to use it while sitting on my sofa in the room, it was a dead zone. Worked great in the bathroom.

We spent 8 nights (Dec 25-Jan 2) at Carlisle Inn and everything was excellent. The hotel is close to downtown Sarasota and most area attractions. Yet it feels a bit secluded. The premises are well maintained. The room, 2-queen beds, was clean, spacious, quiet, and typically priced for this time of the year. I loved the hallways. The pool is fabulous and heated. That was my daughter's (7 yr. old) favorite part of the hotel. The staff was polite, pleasant, and helpful. I had multiple reservations and Becky made sure everything was in order. Missa was amazing. We left out at 2am headed back to MI and she made sure we had a few snacks for the road. Note; there is a trail immediately adjacent to the hotel that is great for walking, biking or exploring. It is very popular. I will stay here every time I visit FL.

I can't say enough about the staff... So very pleasant and polite. Always greeted you with the smile always ask if you were well if everything in your room was satisfactory if you needed anything they went above and beyond during our whole stay. The rooms were fully equipped and very clean. Breakfast was wonderful, a lot of options. One of the staff members even did a walk-through to make sure that we weren't leaving anything behind before we checked out. It was a very pleasant experience and a wonderful stay I would highly recommend the Carlisle inn.

The breakfast room is maintained to a high standard and tables and floor are cleaned almost immediately when vacated. Breakfast is self service and includes hot options along with cereals, breads, cake and other bakery items. The food quality is very good.

We very much enjoyed the Carlisle Inn. The rooms are a very good size, well maintained and spotlessly clean. This was our second visit to the Carlisle and were again not disappointed . The people who work here are wonderfully friendly and eager to help during your stay.

From the minute we arrived, it was an exceptional experience. The entire hotel staff were just wonderful and welcoming. Our room was spotless and quite spacious with such nice touches like providing real coffee mugs. The hallways are very wide and easy to navigate. Daily breakfast was amazing and real cutlery provided. Plenty of parking and a beautiful pool area. Great location too. Short drive to Sarasota beaches. We were lucky and Siesta Key beach had just was opened back up after Hurricane Milton. The Carlisle Inn-Sarasota feels like home away from home.

N/A

The property was beautiful. Just as the reviews stated prior to my visit. Very clean, very friendly staff, and close to everything that we wanted to visit. Our room was the nicest by far of all the others that we stayed in on our way down and back to New York. The free breakfasts were great as was the restaurant on the property. We will be staying there again next year.

Not a thing

The front desk staff was very nice. The hotel was very clean and tidy. It was probably the quietest hotel I've stayed in which was wonderful for me. The rooms were tidy and pleasant. I didn't see they had a fitness center on the website or I would have brought workout clothes. I didn't have cookies or breakfast so I can't speak to them. The rooms and hallway were very large. I can imagine the food would be good but I didn't try it. I would stay there again.

There was something red on the bathroom counter. I could rub it off with a damp tissue so cleaning could have been slightly better. Overall it was very good. The view was of the parking lot and some areas that were not attractive. Overall it was very good.

What a gem! I had no idea this place existed, and it's marvelous. It reminded me of a mini Biltmore village with the hotel, gift store, restaurant, bakery, etc and all within walking distance. The workmanship is wonderful. The size and cleanliness is unheard of today. And you can tell that it was lovingly made by the Mennonite/ Amish people. And the hot tub was hot! Also, some of the friendliest staff that I didn't know still existed in the world today. Everyone I met, even other patrons, were just so nice. It reminded of the way the world used to be.

Unfortunately after turning on the heat because it was slightly cold and needing to switch it back over to air conditioning in the middle of the night it did not turn back on. But I think that will be fixed super quickly as they took my complaint seriously and they were willing to come check it out in the middle of the night if I had wanted to disturb my sleep.

This hotel is exceptional! From the moment you walk into the hotel lobby. I was greeted by smiling faces that were genuinely happy to have me in their hotel. I noticed right away how immaculate this hotel is. From the lobby, to the common areas to the hallways, and rooms. This hotel deserves to be rated a 4-5 star easily They provided a delicious complimentary breakfast each morning and fresh cookies each afternoon. The rooms were cleaned each day, trash emptied as you towels replenished The room was large, well lit and very comfortable My bed was a king size with a separate couch, dining table and a console that was a desk drawers combination The shower and wash room were separate so multiple people can get ready at the same time The shower had a detachable shower head and multiple settings for a rain or pulse water feature. The mirrors were large and the room was well lit My room came with a small refrigerator that I used to keep items I purchased at the company owned restaurant/gift shop/ bakery in front of the hotel The location is perfectly situated close to literally everything but yet in a quiet and safe Amish neighborhood Pinecrest

There is nothing not too like about this hotel
