The Chassahowitzka Hotel

We received a checkin code but no staff was there. We were the only ones there! It was very quiet and we had access to a lounge area with tv, snacks and refrigerator. In the morning we woke to an amazing breakfast and as we were leaving a staff gave us suggestions on what to do in the area. Very friendly and helpful. The grounds were very pretty and we saw lots of wildlife there. It was a little creepy at night though being the only ones there.

We liked the quiet area and loved the breakfast in the morning! Thank you for that! The grounds were lovely and the porch was nice for relaxing and bird listening. The owner was very helpful with restaurant options and the television! This place should really be called a bed and breakfast, not a hotel however. We aren’t big fans of shared spaces when we stay somewhere and the description didn’t really explain that. We really didn’t want to put the food from our cooler in a shared fridge. We assumed it would be more like a hotel. The rooms are more like a sleeping space with a bathroom. There was nowhere to plug in chargers so that phones could sit on a counter. We had to leave them on the floor. One side of the bed was up against a wall, so my husband had to crawl in and out of the end of the bed. We don’t have serious mobility issues, but it was a challenge. Not big issues, more inconveniences.

Perfect quiet setting, with a bar/grill at walking distance from the hotel. Had a beautiful spread for breakfast, too.

More like a B&B. Huge breakfast spread, big dining and living area. Manatee room had a large private bathroom and comfortable beds.

Wonderful stay at the Chass Hotel. The rooms are comfortable and the breakfast is much more than a continental breakfast. They also leave snacks out for their guests to enjoy during the day or in the evening. We stayed in the Captain’s room, and there was no closet, so keep that in mind if you are coming for a long stay. Close to all of the wonderful springs and natural beauty of central Florida!

A lovely spot off the beaten path. This B&B is a wonderful spot if you are planning to spend time on the Chaz over. The property is lovely and the Live Oak in the yard is incredible! The historic building is lovely and has a great history. The accommodations were basic but very comfortable. The breakfast was ample and it is clear they seek options for people with all types of dietary needs. Nice to have the snacks and fruit available through the day! Thanks for a great stay!

The property was very quaint and quiet. It was comfortable and captured the uniqueness of the location.

Really cool historical building. Nice for a night or two and close by the boat launch/ kayak launch area for river/springs access.

Although it was beautiful it was NOT on the river. That is the main reason I selected it from others that were actually on rivers. I felt it was deceptive advertising to show the picture of the boat launch as part of the property when in actuality that business was a good 10 minute walk away and was a totally separate property. The lady that met me to check me in was very brusque. She said that she sent me a text giving me the code for the door but I never received it. She seemed angry about that. It was very cold the evening that I was there and I had no access to heat because Ann the lady in charge lived off premises and I didn’t feel comfortable calling her to inquire about heat After the BIG hurry she was in earlier. I was the only guest in the hotel that evening which should have been indicative of an unpleasant stay. Beware of false advertising!!
