What I appreciated most about this stay was how helpful the people were. Our first room's air conditioner wasn't working. When we called down to explain, they offered to have us move rooms or have maintenance come up right away. The willingness to make things comfortable quickly is something I really appreciated! More so, the rooms were clean, quiet (other than loud, shutting doors), and well maintained. The hotel is not downtown but is located in a way that one could get almost anywhere quickly!

I came to town for a family wedding and our group was staying at the country Inn and suites. The location is awesome. The rooms are large and clean well appointed with new appliances. Amber, the guest service manager, has been very attentive and made sure my visit/stay is going great.

Very nice New hotel with beautiful canal views

Reviewed By MVTRAVELS0102

We loved our stay at the Hampton in Houghton. The rooms are spacious and very clean. Comfortable bed. We enjoyed the water view and watching the boats on the canal and the lift bridge go up and down. Wish we had booked a balcony room. Breakfast that is included was top notch. Best we’ve experienced since the pandemic. Service was prompt and courteous. Easy walk to MTU and to shops and restaurants. This will be our hotel of choice when in town.

Old, Outdated, Uncomfortable and Inconvenient

Reviewed By Kriss041268

Our group stayed at this hotel this past weekend. We had a total of 6 rooms for 3 nights each. The price was literally outrageous for the type of hotel. The rooms were outdated. You either had scalding water or lukewarm in the shower. The drains did not work in any of our rooms. Pool hours are inconvenient and not guest friendly. The Hot Tub smelled like dirty water. There is one table and 10 chairs in the entire pool area yet this hotel is 6 floors. It is built into a hill so you can not easily access your room if you are on the 4th or 6th floor. Breakfast was mediocre at best. They try but, just old food. Also the room seats maybe 20-25 people and no overflow option when it was full both mornings. It is amazing to me that they know they cater to snowmobilers but, are very misleading about where you can park. Most of our stay was jockeying around our vehicles and walking up steep hills just to get to the hotel because they do not have enough parking for vehicles let alone your trailers, snowmobiles, or cars. We were told to park under the bridge but, there was nowhere to park. So we parked up top with our trailers and the front desk called and said that we needed to move our trailers or they would be forced to call a tow truck. Thought that was a little harsh considering there was no place to move them to. Complaints to the front desk staff were like talking to walls. Our keys did not work more times than not. We collectively spent over $8000 at this hotel and felt ripped off. The walls are super thin so you can hear every conversation as well as the neighboring rooms taking showers. Additionally, the door jam on our door was loose like someone tried to break in so we had to slam our door shut to make sure it stayed shut. They keep it a secret that you have to request service by 8 am. I tried one morning at 8:10 but, they would not agree to give us service. I now know why this was the only hotel left in Houghton to book. Super convenient to go to bars and restaurants but, not to get to your own room! If you are a snowmobiler think twice before you book.
