Our room was quiet and the beds were very comfortable. We slept great! We loved our lake view suite with perfect views of the water. Breakfast had a variety of options and we appreciated the in-room Nespresso option to start our morning off before venturing out of the room. The parking was convenient. We will stay again!

It’s a beautiful spot, however, in my son and his family’s room there was food in the fridge and a cup full of cigarette butts on their patio. In my room, there was black hair in the tub drain. Also, my son asked for a crib for their room and they got a pack and play that had dried milk or vomit on it. So cleanliness was not five star for sure. The staff, however, was very nice.

Hotel is great. Stunning views. Breakfast buffet is top notch. So many options! Love the Nesspresso in the room, but does take away from the eco-friendly aspect. Staff are very good. Love that the employee lounge has a lake view. Beds are extremely uncomfortable.

This was one of my favorite places to stay in Duluth. Having a room with a balcony overlooking the lift bridge/ Lake Superior was amazing! Staff were friendly and accommodating. Shopping and restaurants are nearby along with a great boardwalk along the lake to walk or bike. I will definitely stay here again!
