The hotel was easy to find and enter. The staff was very friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful with the check in process and providing information on places to eat. Very charming outdoor area with a patio and bar with live music that was not loud after we went inside for the night. The property as a whole was clean and updated. I would definitely go back again.

Always love the ridge. Great pool area and nice rooms. Would love the ability to eat a meal there, tho! No coffee until 7am and only breakfast sandwiches from a snack bar available. No sit down restaurants for breakfast or lunch. Very disappointing!

The hotel was nice and the outdoor pool was great. The furniture in the rooms was cheaply made and was falling apart. The only other thing that bothered us was that the coffee shop only opened at 7 am. We normally wake up by 6 am to drink coffee.

We will be back! This was our first time visiting Lake Geneva and we are so glad that we decided to stay at The Ridge vs downtown. It is a very short drive in and one day in downtown for shopping/site seeing is enough. We spent the rest of our trip at the hotel. The amenities are amazing! The pool is great! Hailey and Grace at the Deck Bar were busy all weekend & absolutely amazing! Our food at Crafted was by far the best that we had all weekend! The live music on Friday and Saturday nights was great!! We can’t wait to get back!

Our room smelled funky like an assistant living facility and only had a wheel shower. They charged a $75.00 fee for the dog. When we arrived they had lost the reservation for one of our rooms and I the clerk wasn't very helpful until I pulled out the email from Expedia to prove there was another room reserved

We enjoyed the friendliness of the front desk staff, Ann was super helpful and patient with a guest we were trying to help. The live music was spectacular! For only two members, (drums and guitar.) They were very impressive. The name was "Whalen". The outdoor area is beautiful with the lights in the trees with plenty of seating. Rooms were very clean, bed and pillows were very comfortable. We absolutely will return in the future. Only one concern is the over abundance of the air freshener in the lobby. It made me what to go find a waffle cone ice cream. Next time we look forward to using the outdoor pool area. It looks very nice with plenty of seating. Thanks for the nice weekend!

The lobby is stunning! It was a little bit of a let down when we got to our room. Decently clean but just lackluster compared to the lobby and the shower water pressure was terribleeeee. Thank God I didn’t get my hair wet in the pool to wash it in that terrible pressure. Husband got mocha from the coffee shop and said it was decent but a little milky. Some things I love is that there is a pool table and foosball table and games in the lobby (guess who, jenga, chutes and ladders, etc). The pool and hot tub were pretty nice but kinda hard to find. The outdoor pool and hot tub— ummm not great on a 37 degree morning! lol the hot tub outside was not hot, just like a normal pool temp and the pool was pretty cold even though it’s ‘heated’. It would probably be great on a 55 degree day but it was fun to test nonetheless. Decent place, nice fireplace outside, I do wish there were “do not disturb” signs for the doors. Didn’t try the restaurant but overall happy with our stay. Just wish more amenities were available but not all are during certain times of year.

We had a great time at The Ridge! My fiancé and I were looking for a little getaway for one night and we had a great time! They upgraded us to a lake/pool view upon check in for free because they had it anvailable. Everything was clean and nice. We absolutely loved the pool, hot tub, and sauna! Highly recommend for those looking for a nice little getaway. The only small thing that bugged me was the walls in the hotel rooms were super thin- we could hear the people’s conversation next door to us crystal clear in the morning, and their hair dryer, and their toilet flushing. But- when you’re in a shared space in close proximity, this is bound to happen! Overall we really enjoyed our stay!

I absolutely love this hotel. I have been coming here for the last 20years when it was perviously the intercontinental. Updates are fantastic and the food was great. My only complaint is the temperature of the pool. It is so cold. I know they changed over to salt water pool (which is fine), but they really need to reassess this. I have stayed at many hotels across the US. This is by far the coldest pool I have ever been in. My kids couldn’t tolerate the pool over 20min. When you asked the front desk, they simply note that it is within regulation, but there really is no reason why they cannot increase the temperature slightly. Salt water pools must be over 60 degrees and have no heat limit. Other than this, truly a great stay that is pet friendly.

Our first stay was good last year. However we were surprise by our second stay. Elevators was not working and the back elevator was very outdated, carpets and walls from the back stairs were dirty, paint was peeling off in our bathroom, the ladies locker room was dirty with the toilet clogged. We had loud young guests that kept opening the back door to smoke cigarettes, and yelling cursing as if someone was arguing. They’re were little kids around. At 1130pm it was loud with people talking and when we informed the front desk, we felt like nothing was done that the noise was continued until 12:30am.
