Hamilton Inn Select Beachfront Mackinaw CityHamilton Inn Select Beachfront Mackenzie from Montrose stayed in October 2025It was lovely. We had everything we needed, especially loved the breakfast, jacuzzi, and beach view. There were just a few quirks that werent so nice compared to our stay last year, such as the fan in our bathroom squealing and not working and our jacuzzi being finnicky.These comments are from a verified stayDid you find this helpful?|5 out of 5 stars

Hamilton Inn Select Beachfront Mackinaw CityHamilton Inn Select Beachfront Shawn from Flushing stayed in October 2025The hotel was clean and breakfast was good. Front desk employees very friendly and helpful. Our room was nice - 303 but the bed was too firm and the lighting in the bathroom was terrible - super dim and the fan did not work. Side note: the service by Shepler shuttle and boat were great.

Hamilton Inn Select Beachfront Mackinaw CityHamilton Inn Select Beachfront Jacqueline from Alma stayed in October 2025Room was fine and clean except the TV remote. I know they always say hotel remotes are filthy, and it looked like it must be wiped off all the time, but between the number buttons where a rag doesnt reach it was really dirty. Not like housekeeping has time to clean between them with a Q-tip, but it was pretty dirty between the number keys. Enjoyed the view from our room.These comments are from a verified stayDid you find this helpful?|4 out of 5 stars

Hamilton Inn Select Beachfront Mackinaw CityHamilton Inn Select Beachfront Lydia from Mukwonago stayed in October 2025Room was clean but please update your bathrooms. Tub was stained and grungy. Needed to place a towel down in the tub when showering for fear of catching something. Most of the staff was friendly, however when I asked a simple question regarding servicing the room I was presented with an attitude by a member @ the from desk. Dont remember her name just that she had blonde hair. I quickly pointed it out to her being that it was unusual for me to have this kind of attitude from any staff member @ The Hamilton. She was kind and friendly after that but it was a bit of a turn off.These comments are from a verified stayDid you find this helpful?|5 out of 5 stars

Hamilton Inn Select Beachfront Mackinaw CityHamilton Inn Select Beachfront Lebad from Crown Point stayed in October 2025Our rooms was not clean and the room smelled bad, someone smoked there I think. The shower is not working properly. The water in the bathtub is not running, the bathtub drain is clogged. We could not use the shower. Since it was one night and we arrived at the hotel late, we were very tired and there was nothing we could do about reporting the problem. Luckily we had another room (the children's) that we used.These comments are from a verified stayDid you find this helpful?|5 out of 5 stars

Hamilton Inn Select Beachfront Mackinaw CityHamilton Inn Select Beachfront Margaret from Traverse City stayed in October 2025The price was reasonable. There was only one elevator for this large hotel and it was a very long walk from our third floor room. There were no teabags provided in guest rooms. I had to go to the front desk to get them. One of the two clerks on duty did not know where they were kept. This was the first lodging in my life where tea bags were not provided. I found this most unusual.These comments are from a verified stayDid you find this helpful?|4 out of 5 stars
Hamilton Inn Select Beachfront Mackinaw CityHamilton Inn Select Beachfront Charlene from Lansing stayed in October 2025Staff seemed friendly, clean hotel. Pool area had very strong smell only on 1 day, burned throat and nose couldn't enjoy, had to leave area. Rooms need to be updated, dull looking. Strange our room didn't have a microwave. Need better variety of breakfast items such as juice, breakfast meat and other items.These comments are from a verified stayDid you find this helpful?|4 out of 5 stars
Hamilton Inn Select Beachfront Mackinaw CityHamilton Inn Select Beachfront Kelly from Alachua stayed in October 2025The location of our room was perfect! Right next to the elevator and facing the lake. The beds were very firm, except for the sofa bed which was NOT firm and very lumpy. The sliding glass door was quite difficult to operate, and I think the track may need to be cleaned. We stepped outside to witness the sunrise in the very chilly morning on Monday. We had a lamp with no shade, but it did have bulbs, so it was operable! The bathroom had a exhaust fan that was very loud so it didn't get used. Breakfast was hot and the choices were many. I would have enjoyed having real half and half instead of pretend cream, but I made it work for the two mornings we were there. The hotel was definitely previously loved and could benefit from a makeover, which they may have plans to do after the ferry stops running next month. The location of the hotel and its proximity to the ferry, restaurants, the lake, etc., not to mention the price, make it a no-brainer to return to in the future. I'm sure we'll be back.These comments are from a verified stayDid you find this helpful?|5 out of 5 stars

Hamilton Inn Select Beachfront Mackinaw CityHamilton Inn Select Beachfront Jeffrey from Vicksburg stayed in November 2025Off-season price was reasonable. Thin walls, however. And our east-facing room (119) was right next to where people step outside to smoke and that was an annoyance.

Hamilton Inn Select Beachfront Mackinaw CityHamilton Inn Select Beachfront Kevin from West Bloomfield stayed in September 2025We had a wonderful one year anniversary trip and the hotel has helpful with adding our tickets to tours and attractions. The only thing I would suggest is that they maintain the lines in the parking lot when possible. Parking was tight at times with others probably not knowing where the lines were eitherThese comments are from a verified stayDid you find this helpful?|5 out of 5 stars

Hamilton Inn Select Beachfront Mackinaw CityHamilton Inn Select Beachfront Cherylee from St George stayed in October 2025Upon entering the building there was a weird cleaning smell in the lobby. In our room there was a worse odor to the point after being there 10 minutes my lungs started closing up. We moved to a different room, then went out to dinner where I was breathing normally. Went back to the room, same issue with lungs. We had to find a different hotel and still had to pay for 2 nights at the Hamilton since the no cancellation period was in effect. My suspicion is that the issue was their cleaning products. If you have any sensitivity to chemicals do not stay there or at any of the other many hotels that are owned by that company in Mackinaw City (we looked at a few, also with strong chemical smells). We ended up in a mom and pop motel, which was dated but very clean and did not use harsh chemicals. The manager was apologetic but wouldnt budge on the cancellation policy and we paid for 2 hotel rooms for our 2 nights in Mackinaw City.These comments are from a verified stayDid you find this helpful?|Traveler Reviews (51-100 of 5632)We welcome your reviews.
