We enjoy the South Pier Inn so much. Perfect location for taking in Bentleyville’s Tour of Lights.
The rooms are perfect.

This hotel is all about location. The hotel is older but decent. The beds could use an upgrade.

This was our first stay. Hubby was geeking out at how close we were to the lift bridge. The view is beautiful and we could see the Christmas Lights from our window. The living room with hot tub was cozy and we enjoyed watching TV in the evening as we relaxed from our day.
The only issue is that parking is quite limited. Also, if you have guests that have a hard time with stairs, be sure to ask for a ground floor unit, as there is no elevator.
We will stay again sometime.

It was an amazing little get away. This is our second time coming to this establishment for our Anniversary. We Love how each room has its own little nook the layout is perfect for privacy. They are very welcoming, have yummy treats to greet you, a lovely firepit to enjoy looking at the bay and bridge. It's quiet and has been very clean both times. We definitely will keep coming back.

We have stayed at South Pier before (off season only) and we love the location - we can walk downtown and along the lake walk. The hotel is very clean and the bathrooms are nice. The breakfast is fair. Local bread and bagels, some yogurt and granola and fruit. The coffee was not too good.
This time there was a giant piece of foam on the bed that made for a terrible night’s sleep. In the morning the clerk told me I could ask to have that removed-previously guests complained about too firm beds. It is a fail solution in my book and it made me have a very restless night. It is not a too soft mattress - it is literally a piece of foam padding on top of the mattress.
We’d still consider this place again for a night, but we’d definitely ask for that adjustment. They are very proactive in asking ahead of your stay if you have any requests….but who knew?

The place is amazing and in the right room, the view is amazing too. It's the third time we've stayed there in as many years. Just look at the photo and the proximity to the canal, lift bridge and lake. Nuff said!

Sitting outside, both on harbor side and lake side, was so enjoyable. Lake side fire pit was appreciated, even on an August evening.
Only one comment. The hot tub was likely not used recently prior to our visit. The next morning there was a grime ring. Minor issue, and easily resolved, but something to keep in mind. We had a wonderful visit.

If you want to be close to the action, this is the place. We got to see a couple of ships pass under the Lift Bridge going in/out of the canal between Duluth Harbor and Lake Superior. Many cool restaurants, brewpubs, and dessert places just on the other side of the bridge which is a 2-3 walk from the Inn. This is the place to stay when visiting Duluth.

We love being at the base of the lift bridge right next to the freighters as they come by. The Adirondack chairs out front and little fire make a great cozy place to sit and watch the boat traffic.

We will probably never stay anywhere else when visiting Duluth. A must for ship-watchers. An unbeatable view of the city and the canal. Being able to walk across the bridge to a wide variety of shops and restaurants makes it the best stay up north.

The room was very clean. The bed was soft. Pillows were comfy. The little balcony with two chairs was a nice touch. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The parking was very tight and limited, although I’m sure there was a spot for each room. I would definitely recommend staying at South Pier Inn.

Litter. Not all of the guests respect the area and leave their candy wrappers and breakfast bags for others to pick up. Not the Inn's fault, but maybe they could better encourage such respect. I appreciated the recycling containers.
