This hotel is in a great location. Able to walk to restaurants, bars,shops. Very clean.
We love being at the base of the lift bridge right next to the freighters as they come by. The Adirondack chairs out front and little fire make a great cozy place to sit and watch the boat traffic.
We will probably never stay anywhere else when visiting Duluth. A must for ship-watchers. An unbeatable view of the city and the canal. Being able to walk across the bridge to a wide variety of shops and restaurants makes it the best stay up north.
