Top Empire Hotel Reviews

Bayshore Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Off season so breakfast was microwave sandwiches, toasted bagels, cold cereal waffles but no warm sausage. Hotel was clean but starting to show its age."

The Baywatch Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Alicia greeted me and checked me in. She was very informative and so friendly. The room was very clean. The breakfast was the only disappointment. A box bf just does not cut it, but Alicia informed me that they will changing that very soon, back to the buffett style. Yay!! This is a really great hotel."

Delamar Traverse City

10/10 Excellent

"The very heated outdoor pool was fantastic! Our room was very clean and the bed was very comfortable. We noticed our room was missing a robe, so we let the front desk know and another one was delivered. Very attentive staff. It's a short walk to downtown. As it was a bit chilly, we didn't walk on the beach, but did notice that the dock is in a great state of disrepair - not what's pictured. Hopefully that will be remedied in the future. We'll definitely plan to stay there again in the future. "
