Beautiful Room, Great Location, Uncomfortable Bed
My husband and I came for a two-night trip to celebrate our December anniversary. The room was far less expensive than the hotels at Canal Park, but we were still within walking distance of Canal Park and Bentleyville. The room was large and beautifully decorated (yellow is my favorite color!). We live in an old farmhouse, so we love buildings with character. My ONLY complaint is that the bed was NOT comfortable and I slept horribly both nights (and a box of tissues would have been nice). Other than that, the stay was wonderful.

Beautiful Historic Rooms - Good Value
I absolutely love these rooms and the concept of staying in a historical building. Everything was comfortable and spacious. Great value for the area! Parking is quite clunky having to use the parking garage across the street for the casino, and its a little awkward entering through the sushi restaurant, but worth it for the cute historical rooms upstairs! Wasn't as noisy as I expected considering the location either.

Loved the old time feel of the room! It was very comfy and the location downtown made for easy access to the sites we visited. The only downside was the Sushi smell from the restaurant in the same building.

The Oliver Inn was such a great place to stay. The history of the building, architectural design, and the speakeasy made this trip a one of a kind experience. With the location so close to the walking path to Fitgers and Canal Park, we were able to enjoy all our favorite places in Duluth. The view of the lake from our suite was beautiful!

Great Place to Stay
It was good, clean, and nicely decorated. The Oliver Inn has much more character than most hotels, in a good way. The rooms are nice even without windows, as it gives the illusion of having windows.

10/10 Exceptional

Oliver Inn was a fantastic way to get to know Duluth. Very convenient for the canal and bridge, shopping, restaurants, walking and sightseeing. It may not be for everyone, however. It is a historic building, whose rooms have PERSONALITY galore. We stayed in the Dorothy Arnold room (12) with 4 poster bed, high ceilings, wood floors, loveseat, bathroom en suite. You enter the building through a Japanese restaurant, then climb the stairs or take the elevator to the next floor where you are instantly transported to the early 1900's. Comfortable and relaxing place if you enjoy that sort of thing, which we do. It has the mod-cons you expect in a nice comfortable room, but they are meant to blend into the time period.
