    This is the Brussel sprouts. Not bad, but nothing to go Gaga over.
    Amanda G.

    The view was amazing...and that's about it. The food was meh, the drinks...meh, the service? The 2 servers on duty are completely overwhelmed and only stopped by our table to ask us why we wanted and to deliver our food. Took for ever to flag them down to get the check. The place was FREEZING!!! Each table is directly under a vent that blows nothing but cold subzero air. If you just want a cocktail at the bar after a night out, it's not a bad place, but will not seek it out in the future. I'd rather go to The Library.

    Great views

    On 7th floor of the Hampton Inn. Really gorgeous lounge with GREAT views of the water, bridge and Hancock. Very nice cocktail menu and a few small plates. Service was very good.

    Slow service, waiting 15 minutes and didn't get to order. Served people that came in after me first. Do nor recommend this place.

    They were out of a lot of the items on the menu. The view was nice. But very disappointing about not having food items.

    What a gorgeous place for a little Aperitivo. Delicious food and drinks with the best view in town.

    this was a college town .. had more restaurants to chose from. Good place to stay. We had drove up…read morefrom Ohio .. started couple at Petasky/Mackinac area ... spent couple night then couple night in Munising and 1 night in Houghton. This holiday inn was a good choice. ask about military discounts if that applies. We stayed on the 3rd flood and it was quiet and the black out shade worked like a boss. We couldn't believe how late we slept. The complimentary breakfasts are always appreciated. there was a small indoor pool. The staff were very helpful .. they even had a dry erase board with suggestions for local things to do, restaurants and bars. Nice touch. chaise lounge with adjustable table was comfie and nice touch. long desk if you are doing business stuff. they didn't have little bottle of amenities .. full large size bottles attached to the wall.

    When I needed to make hotel reservations for a two night stay in Houghton, I decided between the…read moreHoliday Inn Express and the Country Inn and Suites. My experience during the last stay has convinced me that I made the wrong choice in picking the Holiday inn Express. Although check-in was fast, the room we were given had a view of a rock pile, and the clock did not work. Had to ask for another room. Was given a room with a nice view. Second day, housekeeping never came to our room. When I asked the clerk about it was told they left for the day. Had to ask for a new room. Given a room with an upgrade (or so I thought). Upgraded room had serious problems with the toilet- appeared partially blocked. Fortunately we were out of there the following day. In all three rooms, the chairs squeaked, and beds seemed like they were from a flophouse. TV didn't even carry ABC. Breakfast was OK - the cinnamon rolls were the only bright spot. The front desk clerk was very helpful despite the circumstances. Never used the pool - but looked like it needed a resurfacing. Learned my lesson - Country Inn and Suites - next time. Hope its better than what I just experienced.
