Top Ely Hotel Reviews

The Cliff Dweller on Lake Superior

8/10 Good

"This property location was amazing! Beautiful view of the lake. I wouldn't consider the balcony private by any means. There were bars dividing them but if you had the curtains open in your room anyone In the adjoining rooms can look right into your room from their balcony. We are from out of state and apparently the weekend we picked happened to be the busiest weekend to be there. As a result the hotel was completley full. The walls are quite thin so we could hear people in the adjoing rooms through the walls. Not to mention we were on the lower level of the hotel and the footsteps of the people above us were so loud they were actually echoing through our room. We were hoping for a quiet peaceful weekend and instead we felt like we were in a crowded apartment complex. The room was a bit smaller then expected. The shower head was so low i actually had to bend down to wash my hair. I am 5'10 so not overly tall. The staff was wonderful. Very polite and helpful. All that said, we probably won't be staying there again. For the price we paid I was hoping for a bit more."

Silver Rapids Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Nice place to stay, close to lots of things to do."

Timber Trail Lodge

8/10 Good

"Timber Trail Lodge is in a beautiful location. The place is neat and clean and the staff I interacted with were helpful. The room itself was on the small side and the shower even more so. We slept great, however and wouldn’t hesitate to stay there again"

Saganaga Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"What a beautiful place to get away from it all! Located at the very end of the Gunflint Trail, Sag Lodge was the perfect spot for our family of five to unplug and enjoy the peace and quiet of the Northwoods. The views were absolutely beautiful, and the stargazing was incredible! We loved the feeling of being tucked away from everything. Our accommodations were clean, cozy, comfortable, and just the right size for our family. The kitchen had everything we needed, and it was clear that the property was thoughtfully cared for and well maintained. There’s something really special about being at the end of the trail, surrounded by so much natural beauty and quiet. We’re already looking forward to coming back!"
