Great family spot in the PERFECT location!

We absolutely loved this place and will make it our go-to spot when in Duluth. From the location, to the facility/amenities (great pool for kids!), to the delicious free breakfast-10/10 recommend. My only complaint is the cleaning staff is was pretty pushy in the morning. They were lingering outside our door 30min before checkout and it made us feel rushed.

Although expensive, we splurged on a room with a balcony, fire place, and hot tub. It was so quiet and comfy. We enjoyed the wrap around balcony with the view of Lake Superior and the light house. If you would like to be located in Canal Park this was the best place to stay. The free breakfast was very tasty with plenty of warm food with make your own waffles. There were continental breakfast options as well. Great place and friendly staff. We will stay again. It was a great hotel for our first ever visit to Duluth.

This property is located in the lovely Canal Park neighborhood of Duluth, MN. There were carriage rides available on the south end of the property. The pool was clean (a little heavy on the chlorine) and safe. There was a lot of walking area surrounding the property and a beach less than a block away.

We were stuck with room 124. Don't ever stay in this the room. The environmental and ambient noise from the hallway, breakfast area, and floor above is insane. If you're a light sleeper, good luck.
