I liked the lobby. They actually had ice cold lemon water and caraffs of hot coffee available all day. The dining area was nice (overlooking Lake Superior) with one of the best serve yourself breakfasts I've seen in awhile. There was a dining area outside too, and a nice boardwalk along the lake. We liked the Nespresso machine in room.

Lift Bridge Lodge is a great place to stay! It was clean, well cared for, and updated. The views were great! Watching the sunrise from the balcony was a great perk. The breakfast included was really good for a hosted breakfast with tons of options. Probably one of the best hotel breakfasts I’ve had in a long time. It was decently priced as well. It’s also in a great location and walking distance to so many shops, breweries, restaurants, and more. I’d love to come back again and stay!

Definitely a Great Lift Bridge Lodge.

The room was nice, we had a King Whirlpool suite w/ a fireplace. The room had both the bridge and lake views (358) which was perfect for watching the ships come and go as well as seeing the waves hit the shore. It was cool and raining while there so we did leave the hotel but it was nice having the balcony to sit out side while being mostly protected from the rain. The whirlpool was truly only big enough for 1 person to fully enjoy, would have been nice if it was big enough for a couple since this was an anniversary trip, though it was still nice to have to relax with the fireplace. The room was dark near the bed and we had a light switch that we could not figure out what it controlled. Breakfast was decent with options for both waffles and pancakes plus eggs, meat, and potatoes. Biggest difference from other hotels is housekeeping doesn’t clean u lea requested. You get a door tag everyday to request clean linens and towels along with personal items if needed. Just would be nice to have some bigger garbage cans in the rooms.
