Lovely property, wonderful amenities, excellent restaurant with a creative/agreeable chef, (Fontana), nice service. The only negative.... Way too much chlorine in the indoor pool. Just came back today and already planning when we'll be going for a long weekend next. Superb.

We arrived early and our room was not ready, which was fine, but the receptionist was not very helpful regarding what our options were with what to do while we waited. After pressing her for options, we decided on the Champagne Brunch at the Grill. $27 for a buffet is definitely the most we have ever spent on brunch. However,... More

My husband and I had a wonderful stay at the Abbey Resort. It has everything, and is away from the crowds of downtown Lake Geneva. The Avani Spa is stunning.

We stayed at the Abbey over the weekend of May 19th for our 22nd wedding anniversary. The hotel is nice - good variety of things to do; adult swimming pool, kids pool, spa, game room, nearby boat rentals, fire pits, and various restaurants in the hotel and a couple close by. The room we got was a double - high... More

We stayed at the Abbey for a wedding. The place is alright but was a bit pricey plus there is a $12 per night resort fee even if you do not use any amenities which are basicly just the pools and a game room. Even though it was quite warm out, the outdoor pools were not open. We asked for... More

It's hard to juggle a 4 year old and a 1 year old and have a relaxing time... Well we had a very relaxing time at The Abbey! We forgot the Pack-N-Play and were instantly in panic and called the front desk to see if they had anymore left in the full hotel. "No Problem" when we were out they... More

We had a very nice time during our weekend stay at the Abbey Resort. While the weather was horrible for May - it was raining and cold - the resort luckily has many indoor activities. We had fun playing board games in the Solarium and swimming in the indoor pool and hottub. We also really enjoyed having drinks and chatting... More

I would highly recommend staying here vs. a hotel/resort in Lake Geneva. Why? Because you are truly a short walk from the lake (and can hike around it), and can get a room with gorgeous harbour views. When I visited Lake Geneva it did not appear that there were accommodations comparable. But, more to the point - this resort is... More

Went to the hotel for a family birthday overnight. Had 4 to a room (queen sized beds). The beds are great but are really high up off the floor and not easy to get in and out of (and we are not old!). This would be a HUGE problem for anyone with mobility issues or who could not "climb up".... More

Came here with a LivingSocial deal for a two day weekend trip. This included one hour in the Sanctuary Suite and a free pass to the Spa. I did not eat at the restaurant as I have heard bad things about it. We went to Anthony's Steakhouse one night and the Baker house the next. It is about ten miles... More
