The Terrace Hotel Lakeland

The Terrace Hotel Lakeland, a 1924 Art Deco landmark reborn through a thoughtful 2021 renovation. Tucked on the shores of Lake Mirror in downtown Lakeland, this 88-room boutique retreat blends historic architectural flourishes—think terrazzo floors and geometric moldings—with contemporary comforts. Stroll from your suite to the vibrant waterfront boardwalk, where lush gardens and public art installations invite photos, cocktails and al fresco mingling just steps from the lobby.

Each guestroom and suite pairs vintage character with modern convenience. Light-filled layouts are outfitted with plush bedding, air-conditioning and climate control, plus work desks for day-of coordination or last-minute toasts in your stationery suite. Fully equipped kitchenettes include mini-fridges, microwaves and coffee/tea makers, while high-speed Wi-Fi and flat-screen TVs keep every guest connected. Daily housekeeping and on-demand dry cleaning ensure attire and linens stay crisp throughout your multi-day celebration.

For wedding ceremonies and receptions, The Terrace offers three distinct venues spanning over 3,100 sq ft of flexible event space. The Lake Mirror Room’s floor-to-ceiling windows frame sweeping water views for up to 72 seated guests, while the Cypress Ballroom adapts to plated dinners, cocktail receptions or dance floors for up to 80. A covered outdoor patio provides a breezy cocktail hour spot beneath string lights. An on-site catering team—from plated three-course menus to interactive food stations—works alongside a dedicated event coordinator to craft custom décor, AV setups and timeline management. Group room blocks, complimentary valet parking and late-night snack packages round out a seamless experience.
