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.

The room was very clean. The bed was soft. Pillows were comfy. The little balcony with two chairs was a nice touch. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The parking was very tight and limited, although I’m sure there was a spot for each room. I would definitely recommend staying at South Pier Inn.

Litter. Not all of the guests respect the area and leave their candy wrappers and breakfast bags for others to pick up. Not the Inn's fault, but maybe they could better encourage such respect. I appreciated the recycling containers.
