Top Downtown Duluth Hotel Reviews

The Suites Hotel at Waterfront Plaza

8/10 Good

"A"

Hampton Inn Duluth Canal Park

10/10 Excellent

"Our room overlooking the lake was better than what we had expected. The room was clean and comfortable, the staff was friendly and very helpful, and the breakfast was very good. We appreciated the dark and light roast coffee choices available 24 hours. The hotel is within walking distance of several attractions and restaurants, and close to the Canal Park "boardwalk". The hotel is one of the quietest we've ever stayed at. We very much enjoyed our stay at the Hampton Inn."

Radisson Hotel Duluth - Harborview

8/10 Good

"I liked the location. Everyone was friendly. Floor lamp bulb extremely dim, no useful light at all. Outlets over bedside table right side of bed did not work. Also outlets in lamp same side of bed did not work. Only outlet to plug CPAP in was from the lamp across the room, which we unplugged from desk and moved over to the bedside table."

Hostel du Nord

8/10 Good

"Great experience. If you have an understanding of what a hostel is (it’s not an actual hotel), you won’t be disappointed in the accommodations. You’re paying for the bed; all the rest is communal spaces. You can interact with others as much as you want, but if you want to just be alone it’s in your sleeping pod with the curtain closed. Areas were clean. Linens were clean. Bed was comfortable. Pillows were too flat for my personal preferences, but I used my towel for a little lift. Stairs to sleeping spaces, so be aware if that’s an issue for you. It was hard to locate from the front - the door is small and unobtrusive. Took me a few passes in my car, until I finally looked at the street number and counted my way down. The whole space isn’t labeled with a big sign, just the name above the door. And if you go in from the front, there are a bunch of stairs to climb. Overall, I would stay here again"
