Top Great Lakes Aquarium Hotel Reviews

Hostel du Nord

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was really amazing. The location is superb. I recommend this place."

Lift Bridge Lodge, an Ascend Collection Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"★★★★★ Absolute Perfection in Canal Park! Our stay at the Lift Bridge Lodge was nothing short of spectacular. First and foremost, the premiere location right in the heart of Canal Park cannot be beaten. We were just a short, beautiful walk away from the iconic Aerial Lift Bridge, fantastic local shops, and incredible waterfront restaurants. Being able to sit on the balcony with a morning cup of coffee while watching the massive ships glide across Lake Superior was an absolute highlight of our trip. Beyond the unbeatable setting, the friendly staff truly made us feel at home. From the moment we checked in, the front desk team was incredibly warm, welcoming, and eager to share local recommendations. The housekeeping team kept the spacious rooms spotlessly clean, and the beds were exceptionally comfortable after a long day of exploring. We also thoroughly enjoyed the fantastic amenities, especially the complimentary daily breakfast buffet which featured a great variety of delicious options to fuel our mornings. Winding down in the indoor pool and hot tubs at the end of the evening was the perfect finishing touch. If you are planning a trip to Duluth, look no further—this place deserves every bit of its five stars!"

Force on 5th Avenue Hotel

8/10 Good

"The hotel and rooms were very cute! We did enjoy our stay. My reason for the 4 star is the room wasn’t extremely clean and had dirt on the floor when you walked on it, the bathroom looked like it was a quick wipe down from previous stay and there were wine spots left on the end table that was never wiped down. Just needs better cleaning. We would stay there again if we see the reviews stop commenting on the cleanliness. The front desk staff were nice, however, no knowledge of the Duluth area when we asked simple questions like ke where to eat and where an EV charger was and it was right down the street."

The Inn on Lake Superior

10/10 Excellent

"Staff is 10 out of 10! Room was clean and as advertised. We enjoyed breakfast outside, soaking in the sunshine and gorgeous views of Superior. The pools were clean, balcony views amazing and within walking distance to Bayfront Park made this stay delightful. Would stay here again! I should mention the outlets were loose in our room so don’t assume the light bulb is out, or your phone is charging -just give it a wiggle."
