Guests can enjoy an indoor saltwater pool and a well-equipped fitness center to maintain wellness routines even on the road.

Complimentary hot breakfast fuels mornings before heading out to explore. While the hotel lacks an onsite restaurant, its central location places several dining options and notable destinations like Marquette Harbor Lighthouse and Northern Michigan University a short drive away.

“I’m a loyal Hampton Inn visitor, and this location did not disappoint. The place looked modern and clean, the staff were very friendly and accommodating, and as always, you can’t beat the free breakfast. Our room was very nice and I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again the next time we’re in the area.”

“This is a premier choice if you are looking for a comfortable stay right on the water. The location is excellent, providing beautiful views and easy access to local attractions. I particularly appreciate the indoor saltwater pool and the fitness center, which make it easy to maintain a routine even while traveling. Plus, the convenience of a complimentary hot breakfast starts the day off perfectly.”

“We've been staying at this hotel for 9 years. The location is superb!! Staff is excellent. We have worked with Denise multiple times and she's fantastic. We can't wait to see the staff and renovations coming this spring. Thank you for making our trips to Marquette so comfortable.”

“The hotel staff was professional and helpful. The view from our room of Lake Superior was stunning. Downtown was just a short walk away. We walked everywhere even in the cold weather. The hottub was so warm and relaxing. I do agree with some other suggestions that the last hour of pool time should be adults only or extend the pool hours to accommodate an hour just for adults. The breakfast was good and it was nice that the hot items changed daily. The mattress was not overly comfortable, but the sheets were soft and clean. Overall, we had a pleasant experience and would definitely stay again.”

“Beautifully located hotel along Marquette Bay. The hotel and our room was very clean. I’m not a fan of the pillows they have as they basically flattened to a pancake, but that was my only real issue. Also, it would be nice if they would prioritize more healthy breakfast options instead of making the waffles (Sugar/Carbs) such a big part. And we wonder why obesity and diabetes are such a problem these days! ”
