The most important thing you need to know is that the hotel restaurant is closed Monday and Tuesday. If you arrive late day on either of those days, your dining options are next to nil. The other Lutsen restaurant burned down and the remainder close at 8, so we were forced to spend an exorbitant amount for cheese and crackers at the general store. I wish I had known that in advance of booking; I would have chosen another day or had a large meal in Duluth someplace.
The room was modest but nice and reasonably clean. More towels and cups and such for our three-night stay would have been nice. Not too sure about the jacuzzi—none of the jets were in helpful spots unless you’re a contortionist. I probably wouldn’t spend the extra next time. WiFi wasn’t terribly stable and would kick you out on the regular. TVs are a bit dated—you won’t be able to fling or airdrop to them, so you’re stuck with regular cable. Granted, if you’re in Lutsen, that’s probably not why you’re there, but evenings would have been more enjoyable with more options.
All in, the stay was okay. I can’t say enough how limited your dining options are, though. No pizza joint, no GrubHub, very few places open. Oh yes, and if you’re going to Grand Marais, expect more of the same. The donut and pizza places are closed early in the week too. Would have been nice to know so we could plan around it.
