Unique and historic hotel. I love the antique decor and the staff/ owner were very friendly. No need to leave the hotel for meals as the hotel has a quaint restaurant, with various cuisine options and offers indoor/ outdoor dining. The chef is friendly and talented. He adds west coast flare to classic meals. The Captain Crunch french toast and patty melt were 2 favorites. He even helped jump my battery after I left my lights on! Easily, the best upcoming hotel in Deland.

Hotel is very nice and clean and staff very friendly. Sadly they do not have AC in the second floor. I spend the worse night of my life. Temperature must be in the 80's in my room. It is sad, because the hotel is super nice, very old, but well maintained. The fact they did not lower the AC after we requested twice (owner refused) made this stay very uncomfortable. I'm not staying there again just because of that.

Had a great time. The Hotel is so cool back in the 1920's. The bar is fully stocked and the bar tenders are well knowledged and the restaurant has great food.

We booked a stay at The DeLand Hotel for the night of July 4, 2025, via Expedia, expecting a relaxing experience. Unfortunately, it was anything but. When we arrived just before 6 PM, we were shocked to find signs on the doors stating the hotel was closed until July 5th. No prior notice was given. After calling the hotel directly, someone was sent to unlock the doors and let us in. We later learned we were the only guests—the hotel had accidentally left the booking system open. That night, we endured: No working A/C (central system was turned off). Ongoing overnight construction on the floor above—likely to repair water damage—causing noise throughout the night. Fire doors left open for workers, raising safety concerns, especially as we had our child with us. No access to amenities: the on-site bar and restaurant were closed, and the complimentary wine offer was void. No staff on-site at checkout the next morning—no way to voice concerns directly. Expedia tried to mediate with the hotel, but the management refused any compensation. We paid for a full-service experience and received the bare minimum, under unacceptable conditions. This experience ruined our night and left us exhausted and frustrated. I would avoid this hotel. This was not a one-off inconvenience; it was a clear display of mismanagement, neglect, and disregard for guests’ comfort and safety. If this is how they operate behind closed doors (literally), I would never trust them with another stay.
