The staff was very friendly and helpful. The location was great and I loved our room and was happy that it had a fridge. The grounds and flowers were beautiful.
We loved this property! The location on the main street of the island makes it easy to get to everything. The staff was wonderful and everything was clean and welcoming. The front porch is perfect for enjoying your coffee in the morning or wine in the evening.
The place was wonderful from the staff, to the location on the island, to the cleanliness. We loved that even though the place is old (as everything is on the island) the rooms are updated and bright and comfortable. it had everything we wanted in a relaxing place.
Beautiful grounds and chairs to sit outside and watch the water. Very close to restaurants, shopping and the ferry. Staff were great. Coffee in the lobby in the am. Very clean. The room was lovely! Enjoyed our stay.
The staff were super friendly, super willing to help, and very welcoming. My room was very comfortable and tidy. Indoor pool was VERY warm, fabulous! Huge outdoor hot tub, too. Plenty of outdoor seating around fire pits at night. Close to downtown.
We enjoyed our stay. The chairs in the front lawn are so enjoyable. The hotel has been remodeled and is well kept. Great location. They transfer bags to the fairy and they can hold you bag on check in and check out . The grill is expensive but worth it , we loved it. We would return
The staff is amazing. We had such a wonderful experience staying there and can’t wait to visit again next year. Our meals were so so good!! Thankyou to Joseph and Keith in your dining room, our experience there definitely made it clear….we will be back next year!! Thankyou to all your staff 🥳☺️
Unique turn of century hotel that has been fully updated for a comfortable and enjoyable island experience. The staff was very accommodating, the rooms were comfortable, but rather small, and the hotel and rooms were very clean. We didn’t have a chance to use the amenities as we were only there one night but there were plenty to choose from.
We enjoyed sitting on the porch playing Farkle. The Ice House was also lovely...great milk shakes! Our 1 bedroom suite was wonderful. My only suggestion is to put a hook in the bathroom to hang wet towels. Great hotel and staff.
The hotel was beautiful and the staff were very helpful and professional. The 4 star rating vs 5 was due to a filthy toilet (unspeakable things left behind) in our room, the floor in our room was dirty, and our room fridge not working.
I would stay again, but I feel like our room was missed during part of the cleaning process.
We only stayed there for one night. The location was very convenient, and the room was very clean. Overall, we liked this hotel a lot for the price we paid on Labor Day. If we had stayed just one day earlier, I would have had to pay triple what I paid. A very good deal!
Such a great hotel. We had never been to Mackinac before and really loved this hotel and the location. There is a bike rental right out front, so you can easily rent a bike and ride around the island. It was really close to all the other things we wanted to do on the island. We enjoyed the hot tub too. That was nice after a long day of walking around. Overall we loved our stay and will definitely come back!
Enjoyed the location, pool, coffee, hot tub and fire pits.
Overpriced
Room layout wasn't conducive to two occupants.
Excessive light came into the room at night from the hallway.
