Top Ely Hotel Reviews

Silver Rapids Lodge

8/10 Good

"We absolutely loved our stay at the Silver Rapids Lodge! It was conveniently located to the Superior Forest and the view was phenomenal. Stars were a light show! We weren't informed the restaurant was non existent as was the kitchenette. It was only a small hiccup. We had a toaster and microwave and fridge so could do a continental breakfast and pack lunch.The bar was open and we could get pizza there. The Bartender was very friendly and a one man show. Ely was very close by and lots of good food there. The people are all very friendly and helpful. Will definitely stay here again!"

"We really enjoyed our stay here. The location was convenient, right off the highway, but still felt quiet and peaceful. You can hear the waves of Lake Superior at night, which was actually pretty relaxing and made for a great way to fall asleep. The balconies were a nice touch, with outdoor furniture where you could sit and enjoy the sunrise over the lake. Overall, a comfortable, peaceful place to stay with a beautiful view and a convenient location."
