Wonderful hotel with a historic-feeling interior and very attentive staff, within a block of everything we enjoy in Downtown Frankfort. Having a private jacuzzi tub and infrared sauna in the room put a high polish on our romantic weekend getaway. We were very pleased with our stay and look forward to returning.

The hotel is charming. Not much is happening in the village mid-week in January. Dining options are limited but there was no waiting! The bathroom in our room is tiny but adequate. We wished the restaurant or bar or breakfast was open when we were there.

Cool building inside and rooms. Very friendly staff. Hotel was clean throughout. Town was nice. Only downside, the bed was a little to firm but nothing the hot tub and sauna didn’t fix. I stayed in the world traveler room.

We loved this place. It was December when we went and hotel restaurant was not open during the week, however local places were walking distance. The room was very quaint, welcoming, and it’s the only place I’ve been to that had a large ho tub and a sauna in the room. We stayed in the world traveler room, and I cannot wait to go back again.

Beautiful, quaint, cozy. A wonderful welcome by the front desk all the way through the bartender and hostess. Good is fantastic. Location is close to everything yet still quiet. A wonderful place to experience a Michigan winter weekend. The room was clean, comfortable and I wish I could have stayed longer!!
