Ellsworth Chalets

I travel a LOT. This hotel was impeccable. The staff is professional, the room was clean and well stocked and parking is easy. I liked being able to walk to dinner. The only downside was the limited dining options when I arrived (although it was between lunch and dinner). I will definitely be back! Hint- it’s a botiquín hotel so book directly their website- you can request a room upgrade when you arrive if available!

Great location

My stay was amazing? Amber went above and above to make sure I was comfortable and had everything that I would need for my stay. The rooms are spacious, the home is warm and inviting, there is no feeling of awkwardness, you actually feel like you are visiting a family member. The home and rooms are extremely clean and comfortable with all accessories that you would need at hand. The location is literally with in 2 walking "strolls" to downtown and marina where all the action is. I will...

Terry was very friendly and very helpful with questions about the area. The breakfast she prepared was very good.

Excellent experience overall. Incredible location and an extremely helpful host couple made this a location we will look to visit again.

The 2 rooms suite was large and comfortable. Fantastic views.

Very clean and well appointed! The beds are comfy and the shower had plenty of hot water and good water pressure. We didn’t use the hot tubs/sauna or cold plunge but they looked nice! Close to Bellaire and Mammoth (which is my fav as I don’t drink beer or cider so Short’s really isn’t the appeal to me for drinks). There’s other places too. All within walking distance. They asked that we put trash outside, pile towels on floor (which I do anyway) but I shouldn’t have to worry about trash at all...

We loved our stay here. The innkeepers were super nice and helpful, and the room was not only immaculate but beautiful! We highly recommend staying here!

We loved the location, cleanliness and comfort. I would suggest putting a small table or chair in the bathroom to put clothes etc on because the sinks are small and there’s no place to lay anything.

We were able to check in early as we had plans before check-in time. Everyone we encountered was very professional and polite. There was a great breakfast too!

We have known about Stafford's Bay View Inn from our trips "up north" over the 30 years but never stayed there. That was our mistake before but never again. The staff was friendly, charming and very accommodating. Our room was very spacious and comfortable. The view of the bay was delightful and allowed us to enjoy the sunset and sunrise. We enjoyed the hotel library and the comfy leather chairs to catch up on some reading. Not having TVs in the rooms actually turned out to be a wonderful...

This place was amazing! The attention to detail at this place is immaculate! The hotel keeps it’s history and charm with the old feel, but is a modern hotel with everything you would need. We had an issue with our room that they were unable to fix at the time, so they gave us a new, nicer room without hesitation. The breakfast ambiance was relaxing and made you feel special. Coffee and water was refilled consistently. Food was great, views were great, outside patio was beautiful and peaceful....

Jets werent working in the hot tub, but the area was nice and spacious. Breakfast was great, areas were clean and workers were polite and helpful.

I’ve stayed here before and was pleased to find the place is still being kept up to my picky standards.

They are always very courteous and helpful. The hotel is conveniently located close to the things I do when I am in town.

We had a great stay at the inn. It's in the perfect location--right next to the canal and Lake Michigan.

It is a 5 star because it was the perfect stay at a historic inn. The rooms and inn are over 100 years old so the mondern comforts are lacking. Minimual plug and small shower. However, it was quaint, the owners and staff were very pleasant, there is plenty of space to relax on the large patio, nice Terrace or in the Lobby. It was easy to imagine you were in a different time and place. If you want character - I highly recommend Petosky's Terrace Inn. Finally, the food at the 1911...

This is a unique and very nice property. They have a ton of extras on property. The rooms are nice but as a small suggestion, some type of counters pace or top in the bathroom would be helpful and there's room. Also a reconfiguring of the shower . It would be great for a large group traveling together with everything they have to offer. The location is also great.

The level of care and attention was very impressive! The breakfast and amenities was superb! We had a very pleasant stay there.
