    Right in the heart of downtown, near restaurants, the Duluth Trading Company haha and the Lakewalk. If you get a room on the front, the view is awesome !!! Nice rooms. Helpful staff. Connected by the skywalks!

    A sunset view of the downtown area and the lift bridge and lighthouses.

    Spent two nights here, while in town for a wedding and general sight-seeing. Was pleasantly surprised to find out that they'd upgraded us to a lakeside room, though discovered when we got to the room that it was a 2 queen bed room, when we reserved a king. The view was worth the downsize in beds, so we stayed in it. The view did not disappoint. The room was well appointed, well designed, and comfortable. The staff was great, and we appreciated the connected parking and the skyway access. The only complaint was housekeeping. Our second stay in Duluth, and the second time the room was supposed to be refreshed and wasn't. But this hotel, unlike the other one, sent someone up to take care of the room. The attached bigger bottle of conditioner in the bath was empty on checking in, we called and asked for it to be refilled when we asked for housekeeping, and it wasn't done the second time, either. Other than that, it was a great hotel, good service, and a good stay.

    Checked in and was immediately greeted with a smile. Upgraded to a beautiful view of Lake Superior. Bed was super comfy and comforter was perfect since we were there during the polar vortex. Unfortunately the heater in my room didn't heat the room so the comforter kept me warm and toasty. Rooms are older but clean. Wished the room had a refrigerator. Stayed for two nights and my room was not cleaned the first night. One of the two elevators was broken during my stay and with one the wait was longer than normal. Food in the Concierge lounge was very limited, didn't even serve eggs during the three days of my stay. As for the restaurant, food was terrible. Salad was overdressed, had brown wilted lettuce. Pasta was frozen and sauce was soupy. The plus side server was attentive and friendly. Parking garage is a nice walk from the lobby. They have a shuttle that will drive you around town close to the airport although I didn't use it.

    This is a nice hotel. It's well kept, fairly new and well run. We stayed here to attend a local wedding. The room was large as hotel rooms go and the beds were just great, very comfortable. It's easy to find and parking is on first street, the hotel give you a free pass at the desk. I'd recommend it as a great place to stay!

    There are so many awesome places to stay in Duluth. Don't stay here. So many cons: *No mini fridge or micro. Booooo! *Old tiny TV's with no HDMI port and basic cable with no guide telling what shows are on. Awww maaaan! *Long walk from parking ramp shared with clinic. (A skyway and an elevator, then another elevator to get to your room in the hotel.) Parking was free, but every time you wanted to leave you had to stop at the front desk to get another ticket to insert into the machine at the exit. Pain! *No free breakfast. Hisssssss! *Double doors on the bathroom that don't meet in the middle. Peekaboo! *Too hot at night. It was set at 70. I turned it down to 65, but it never moved. No air movement. Sweaty! *Both elevators from the lobby smelled so bad. Not sure if someone had an accident of some sort in both? What are the odds... Peeew!

    Shower curtain.  Aug 2021 even after their updates?!   Disgusting!

    I'll start by saying most everyone at the hotel was very friendly. I'll also add that there is nothing more important the health and safety of the hospital staff as well as myself. With that being said, I'll dive in. This hotel isn't all that old but has recently gone through a renovation and certainly dresses it up. However, there are areas that are showing it's age and doesn't quite match up with the renovations and updates. The biggest area was the bathroom. The grout, ties and tub looked very dingy. I thought there was mold in the shower but my wife said it was the grout and it would be difficult to clean It still looked like mold. The shower curtain to the tub shower was very discusting and didn't notice it until the last day we were there. Frankly, i'm glad I didn't see it until then but was mortified at how dirty and disgusting it was. There is lots of construction on Superior St. right now which the hotel obviously has no control over. It does make it very difficult to haul luggage and bags since the main parking is in a ramp behind the building and you have to meander between the skyway, through locked doors, down an elevator and through the hallways. There's not of options around the front. It would be nice if guests were told ahead of time the best place to go and navigate to make the first impression much better. Once we finally found the front desk, we checked in and were immediately given a sheet of paper about the changed due to COVID. Room service was unavailable but take our orders are. There would be no in room housekeeping once you check in and could only be arranged if you were there more than 5 nights. This COVID based procedure allowed for dirty linens, towels and garbage to be left in the hallways as that's were we were told to leave it. It didn't seem to be picked up very quickly either. We also stayed on the Club Lounge floor and assumed what we paid for included that as well. We were also told that, because of COVID, the Club Lounge was closed. At some point, service providers are going to address that they will not be able to use the COVID explanation while still charging a premium for their services but not deliver. The pool and gym are completely open, no room service but the restaurant is open and the lounge is closed to COVID yet very few staff were wearing masks. I'd like to think it's more of a staffing issue than COVID issue but seeing multiple people stand around the front desk talking tells me otherwise. What I would have expected for a premium room at a category 5 hotel would have been an explanation as to why the lounge is closed and since we weren't able to take advantage of it, the ability for free breakfast in the restaurant, a bottle of wine or heck, even a free drink at the bar. This likely isn't the process of the hotel, but would say there appears to be a great opportunity to provide some additional value. We couldn't get into our normal resort for the days we wanted to stay so being a Bonvoy member I target Marriott prosperities first. I normally stay at another one but had an opportunity to have a 1 bedroom suite with a separate living room and bedroom. My wife and I were there to both work and visit family so thought the additional room and separation would be nice. I also assume people who get the suite also want the space and flexibility to both relax but also work if needed. Nearly every hotel I've ever stayed in has some sort of desk and chair you can use to work at. The pictures even show the room with a desk by the window overlooking Lake Superior. Our room, however, had no desk. It has a massive hallway with tow sets of double doors into the bathroom and a gigantic closest that i'm guessing is rarely use; but no desk and chair. When I asked the person at the front desk about not having a desk I was told that after the renovation, some of the suites didn't get them. I guess we were one of those suites. I will say, the bed was very comfortable and if we didn't have a lake view, there would be nearly no value to the stay at this hotel because of the inconveniences. This hotel seems to be animal friendly and found that out when we heard barking dogs multiple times throughout our stay which is very annoying. It's hard to go between Marriott properties that have one policy while others have very different ones. I would expect consistency from Marriott and why I believe they may be having a more of a staffing issue that lead to the lack of value for the price.

    A relatively new ( maybe 10 years) hotel located in downtown Duluth on Superior St about a mile from canal street and the big lake. We were here for only one night this time but found our room on the fifth (out of six) floor roomy, reasonably up to date, clean and comfortable. The bathroom was well appointed and the a/c quiet and efficient. Check in was quick and friendly. The only tricky thing was finding the parking which is in a city-owned ramp up and behind the hotel. On my second trip around the block I noticed a smallish Sheraton sign over part of the garage entrance. A sign by the front of the hotel could have helped too had there been one. I learned later that parking is free for guests-you just need to pick up a validation at the front desk (nice). The garage is connected to the hotel via a long skyway on floor two of the garage. I always ask for a quiet room as one of the challenges in larger hotels is noisy neighbors and slamming doors and while there weren't too many people on our floor the loud heavy doors were bothersome. Overall this place offers all the features I look for in a hotel. Front desk hospitality is first rate and was a decent spot to stay. Note: our bed (rm 503) was extra extra firm - I thought it was fine but my wife hated it and didn't sleep too well. We also had a room on the 6th floor club level so wee able to take advantage of the club room for a light breakfast featuring breakfast sandwiches, cereal, fruit, bagels and toast which was a nice little extra.

I would rate…read more4 stars but the cost outpaced the age and general atmosphere of this hotel, but the price could very well be consistent with summer demand. Beautifully set along the boardwalk and canal park commercial area, this location is perfect for Duluth visitors! The hotel and room was very clean but just was from a past era. I wouldn't say the bed was super comfy but it was adequate and the room was pretty quiet. Bathroom was spacious and uniquely designed. Elevator was super slow but stairs are easily accessible. Breakfast was the average marginal Hampton breakfast but served in a very nice windowed room with views of the water. I am a Hilton Honors Diamond member and received a complimentary room upgrade- room with view of the water. This was an appreciated perk but otherwise the front desk did not acknowledge my status even when checking in.

    Our stay was Sunday night Nov 23 for the Bentlyville Tour of Lights event. Initially we had…read morereserved a Queen Lakeview, but took advantage of a website offered upgrade to a King 1 Bedroom Suite (although that's not how it was labeled) with a Whirlpool (jetted tub) for an extra $40. The room labels for the upgrades to bid on did not match the labels of the rooms on the Hilton Canal Park webpage, but Michelle was very helpful in email correspondence in decoding the rooms being offered and the process of bidding on upgrades and the obligations involved. The King Suites are normally $100 more than the Queen Lakeviews for a Sunday. Oddly a Queen Partial View was also offered for bids at $80 more than our Queen Lakeview, although it would have been a downgrade. Construction was going on, which we were warned about on our stay last year. There was the expected smell of paint, commotion, and compromises on amenities because of this. You are paying a premium for the Canal Park location with this property, the event was a fifteen minute walk. Beautiful Lake Superior was about a hundred yards away across a service road, and we pretty much had the shoreline there to ourselves early Monday morning. The third floor room was clean, quiet, and adequately stocked which was expected for the price. They accommodated us with a rollaway bed for my girlfriend's daughter, though not right away. According to Business Travel News this property was built back in 1997 and last renovated 2013. It's definitely showing its age. There were several issues that likely won't be fixed with the current renovation, like dated slow elevators, which according to other reviewers has abruptly dropped with their groups inside. They have electronic checkin with the app, which is a big reason I stay with this chain, but the app didn't control the TV or the heating/cooling control, which their promo material advertises it to. I was told this was not going change with the renovation. The shower door wouldn't close all the way, so you had to be careful about water on the floor. Also when my girlfriend tried the jetted tub the hose leaked and sprayed water everywhere. The tiny laundry room had no washers (hopefully temporary with the renovation). The tiny workout room had just three of pieces of decades old equipment, a stairmaster, bike, and treadmill. It just fit me and her daughter, we had a couple people peek in and then leave while we were in there. The pool was nice. The breakfast, not in the normal dining area because of the construction, was typical generic fare to feed a lot of people cheaply despite TV promos showing a bagel shop bagel and sliced fresh fruit. I've yet to see either of these at any Hilton property. There wasn't much for snacks, you were mainly at the mercy of machines that ripped you off. I was overcharged several dollars for a bottle of Pepsi, which the evening desk person said he couldn't do anything about, but was refunded in cash the next morning by the day desk. When it happened the evening desk person mentioned the machine had outright stolen money from others without even giving drinks. When asked about the free water for 'Silver' membership, the only tangible benefit that level gets you, the evening desk girl pointed to a basket with some tiny bottles of warm Glacier Mint to apparently serve myself. This water perk is clearly just a token thing, but other Hiltons make more of an effort. The Hampton Duluth North gave us a couple of chilled large Aquafina's in a Hilton paper bag. We've stuck with the Hilton umbrella this last couple years after some bad experiences with Wyndham's, although the Hilton options for Duluth are fairly limited. A ten minute Uber ride away is the Hampton & Suites Duluth North/Mall Area, built in 2017, for two thirds the price of this one on any given night. We stayed there for the Haunted Ship event a month earlier, and 20 years newer does make a difference not to mention a more motivated staff. There are also countless other downtown Duluth hotels from competing chains and independents, like the new boutique property Force On Fifth, that likely would offer a comparable or better experience for less money. If you have to have a downtown Duluth Hilton and are willing to spend $200-$400 a night on a room depending on the day of the week, this property will just do.
