10/10 Exceptional

Extremely comfortable and peaceful

The room was wonderful and felt more like a small apartment instead of a hotel room. The building had a lot of historic character. The bed was extremely comfortable for a good night rest and the location was peaceful and quiet.

Great property with lots of historical charm.
Alexander, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Needs new maintenance staff.

Check in was problematic as the lock codes were sent only a few hours ahead if check in and by text rather that email as previously indicated. The room was nice, but there was mold in the shower and the drinking glasses were clearly previously used (lip balm marks).

Pilothouse Suite

The GG Barnum mansion was awesome for a weekend stay! Very clean, easy check-in instructions, delicious fresh baked pastries for breakfast. The Pilothouse Suite was also very clean and private, at the end of the second floor hallway. The room was a bit smaller than I expected from photos, but still enough space for two. Highly recommend for a great stay!

10/10 Exceptional

We had an amazing stay, at this gorgeous historic property! I love the aspect of just letting ourselves in, felt so much like coming home to a beautiful top floor apartment of our own! We were in town visiting family and wanted our own place close by, and this was perfect! Loved the homemade breakfast pastries, and made coffee in our room, but there was a whole big pot ready for us downstairs in the piano room. Just so beautiful, and the big windows offered incredible views of the leaves changing colors from the big front porch and our room! Loved the hot tub after a long day hiking and visiting! Thank you so much for providing a unique, historical experience, so much better than a generic hotel! Will for sure stay again!

Beautiful house and so much nicer than a boring bland hotel! Peaceful setting and beautiful neighborhood Loved my room. Will go back once I am in Duluth!

Beautiful room

We had a wonderful stay at the GG Barnum Mansion in the Jay Cooke suite. The room was large and the bed was ver comfortable. The large shower was a dream we appreciated the little extra touches, like information about restaurants, filled ice cube trays, water bottles and although we didn’t use it—there was even a bag of microwave popcorn for us! I would highly recommend a stay here if you’re in Duluth.
Nancy, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Absolutely beautiful property. No one was present on site and I had to dig in my email to find key codes. It was good but a little disorienting.
Julia, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The property was absolutely beautiful! It’s on a quiet street with ample parking. My only complaint was the bathroom cleanliness. I found hair on the floor and in the shower and the tub was slow to drain.
