    clean room
    spacious area
    decent bed
    thin walls
    firm mattress

    The Deluxe King Room was pretty spacious, clean, and well-decorated. I enjoyed having a nice seating area and the bed was decent, though a bit too firm for my taste. The only downside was the thin walls. I could hear conversations from neighboring rooms quite easily, which was a bit distracting at times.

    complimentary breakfast

    lack of hot water
    musty odor
    slow drainage

    I had a lovely stay with a spacious, clean room featuring comfortable amenities and a nice breakfast buffet. However, the lack of hot water in the bathroom and a slightly musty smell in the room were areas that could be improved. Overall, it's a great spot for families.

    The breakfast with custom-made omelets was the highlight of my stay! Clean and cozy rooms, but the pillows were too firm for my liking. a comfortable spot for a quick getaway! 😊

    friendly staff
    comfortable accommodations
    variety of breakfast options
    lack of elevators
    limited access

    The Blue Gate Garden Inn was a pleasant stay with friendly staff and comfortable accommodations. The breakfast buffet had a variety of delicious hot options like eggs, sausage, and French toast bake, ensuring a filling start to the day. The indoor pool and hot tub offered a relaxing way to unwind after a long day of work. Additionally, the hotel's location near local attractions made it convenient for business purposes.

    The lack of elevators to some rooms made access a bit challenging.

    My stay at the Blue Gate Garden Inn was good. The staff exuded friendliness, and the breakfast options dazzled me with variety. I found noise from neighboring rooms a tad disruptive, but the cozy atmosphere made up for it.

    great breakfast
    family-friendly activities

    We love Blue Gate! This was our 3rd stay, and it's always wonderful! The breakfasts are second to none. The kids enjoyed the game room and pool. The staff is friendly and accommodating, especially Breanna at the front desk, who was a great help with our needs!

    No complaints at all!

    sound insulation
    seating options

    beautiful outdoor gathering spaces, impressive arcade facilities, unique historic decor

    Seating options near the outdoor fire pit could be improved!!! !!! Also, the sound insulation is lacking, making it difficult to relax with noisy neighbors!!!

    accessible seating options
    dining areas

    The outdoor lounging area was a delightful retreat, surrounded by beautiful gardens and comfortable seating, perfect for enjoying the fresh air while catching up with family and friends.

    More accessible seating options in dining areas would help.

    locally caught fish
    friendly staff
    comfy common areas
    lack of elevators
    unfriendly front desk staff

    Oh man, the locally caught fish at Blue Gate Restaurant & Bakery? It’s downright legendary! Plus, the friendly staff treated us like family, and the common areas are so comfy for hanging out with pals. Don't forget about that killer continental breakfast. it gives you just the right amount of fuel to explore Shipshewana!

    Now, I won’t sugarcoat it. the hotel is on the pricier side, and we scraped our knees on those long hallways due to the lack of elevators.

    The room was cozy with a microwave, refrigerator, and flat-screen TV. Breakfast was a highlight, with made-to-order omelets and various pastries. The pool area was spacious and inviting, and the hot tub was perfect for relaxing. The staff was super friendly and accommodating, making our family feel welcome during our visit.

    freshly made omelettes
    gluten-free waffles
    uncomfortable sofa bed
    insufficient towels

    The breakfast was sooo good! Freshly made omelettes and gluten-free waffles! 😍 The only downside was the sofa bed – not comfy at all. Overall, a great stay!

    cozy atmosphere
    friendly staff
    complimentary breakfast
    dirty dresser
    unattentive housekeeping

    during my stay in shipshewana, i was once again impressed with the cozy atmosphere and friendly staff. the complimentary breakfast truly exceeded my expectations, featuring a range of freshly baked pastries and hot items. my favorite part was the well-maintained pool and hot tub area, where we spent quality family time together.

    the room could have used a deeper clean.
