Parking is in the back of building. Only thing I didn’t like was the reach of their WiFi. It wouldn’t connect to one of the TVs in the room. Overall, it was super clean! Linens were full stocked. Would stay again

Elegant lobby and stair ways. Rooms updated and clean and well appointed. Muy room was right next to the road and each vehicle and bar across the street was heard. Ran the fan and white noise machine to bloke the noise.

This property is absolutely beautiful. The team were extremely responsive by text and we felt looked after in every way. It is worth noting that this is not your usual hotel in that there is no room service or restaurant on site. We took the recommendation of The Blanche team and ate at a wonderful local restaurant and had breakfast at an outstanding coffee bar the next morning. Thank you for such a lovely experience.

I love staying at the Blanche! Easy, no fuss, quiet, quaint, comfortable… I could go on! Communication with staff is easy and they are always kind and professional. The Blanche is a gem in Lake City and I don’t plan to stay anywhere else when work sends me their way.
