Houghton County Budget Hotels

"My only complaint is that we were there for graduation at Michigan Tech. They surge priced us for the room so we ended up paying $500 + a night. For that much, I would expect the extra $300 or whatever would be going towards bringing more people on for the weekend to help with the greater number of guests. Having to ask for multiple items at breakfast because no one was closing monitoring was just annoying solely because where was my money going to then?! I honestly wouldn't have been frustrated except $500!! Anyway, the welcoming chocolate chip cookies were nice."

"Perfect weekend, great spa area, great pizza, planned on skiing but the weather had a different idea"

"This hotel in the Hancock-Houghton area is located in a quiet part of town near the Portage lift bridge. It is well kept, the rooms are comfortable and spacious, and the lobby/breakfast area is clean an open. It's not a new building but it is well maintained. It is located near a walking or running trail along the lakeshore, and the lakefront provides a nice view of the lift bridge. The breakfast is both hot and cold. However, other meals require driving or walking to restaurants that are less than 10 minutes away. It's a great hotel for a relaxed atmosphere on Portage Lake and quiet at night."

"$270 for 1 night, which was a Thursday seems awfully expensive to me, considering I just spent $254 for a Friday and Saturday in Brooklyn Park, MN for the first weekend in May. That being said, the continental breakfast should have more options than just a waffle to make or a breakfast sandwich I have to microwave. Possibly, sausage, eggs, pancakes, bacon and breakfast potatoes."

"A gem of a place in a special town! Super clean room (even under the bed!). Due to the nature of the landscape (rocks) there are a lot of steps to get to room, pool, breakfast, into the property. Most parking is covered. Staff is very helpful and friendly. We look forward to staying again."

"Busy, graduation night"

"Easy access to a sandy Lake Superior beach"

"They were very accommodating for my late arrival. The room was very clean and had everything we needed! We have stayed there several times during my son's attendance at Tech."

"We were in room 423 it was very windy which wasn’t the hotels fault but all night all we heard was the flag right outside our room flapping and banging all night. The other issue was the staff kept calling our room while we were trying to rest after a very stressful weekend. Normally it’s so quiet there. The breakfast was kind of yucky on Saturday the bacon was barely cooked, the eggs were dry and over done… not the usual."
