Pros:

Rooms were really nice (especially the shower!) and the food/drink amenities were great as well. Location is perfect for exploring Marquette, as it’s right in the downtown area and just a couple blocks from the waterfront and Washington Street (the Main Street of downtown). Would absolutely stay there again!

Boutique hotel in restored building - original
brick wall accents, beautifully decorated and spotless. Extras that make it special - gourmet coffee & tea in the room, outstanding breakfast with fresh pastries, yogurt & oatmeal. AND a wonderful upper lounge deck with free social cocktail hour from 5 to 7pm. Very friendly staff!

Pros:

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the hotel. It was centrally located to everything in downtown Marquette and the extra amenities were a big plus. We enjoyed nightly Gilded Hour on the rooftop deck, using the electric bikes to travel on the nearby bike trails and the morning pastry breakfast. The staff were kind and accommodating to all of our needs.

If we visit Marquette in the future, we’ll definitely be staying again.

Pros:

Very nice spot downtown. Clean, cute room. Nice big bathroom with a nice shower. Very nice selection for breakfast, snacks and drinks. Wonderful little coffeemaker in the room with local coffee provided. Walkable to downtown. Easy parking. I only wish our room had been a little bigger but we took what was available. Roof was nice, only wish we could have a clear view of the lake. Staff we encountered were courteous and kind.

Pros:

My only regret is that we couldn’t stay longer! The property is gorgeous and the location is ideal for us. I had to reach out to the hotel on the day of check in. I sent an email to the property through Expedia and I explained our situation. Someone from the property looked into the problem and contacted me very shortly after I sent the email (it had to be less than 30 minutes)! We hadn’t received an email with check-in information (room number or access code), but that’s because we booked through Expedia. Expedia provided the hotel with the Expedia email address, not mine… and they made no attempt to forward the information to me. The staff member from the hotel was very friendly and helpful. She immediately provided the info I needed and had the check-in email sent to the correct email address. I really couldn’t be happier with our stay here!

Pros:

This was the best experience I’ve ever had staying in a hotel. The staff went above and beyond to prepare the room for our stay with two children for our wedding weekend. It’s as if they had anticipated our every need! The room and bathroom were luxurious, it’s in an extremely walkable location to all of Marquette’s downtown attractions, and the complementary breakfast and beverages were wonderful!
