Cotton Mansion is a wonderfully renovated early 20th century residence. The lobby, woodwork and fixtures are impressive. Our room was Clean, Quiet, interestingly decorated. Bathroom and Vintage clawfoot tub/shower, tiles and fixtures. Well worth the stay. We'd go back again.

6/10 Good

The property is very interesting and historically enjoyable, but Check-in was very poor. No note with entry codes cane for almost an hour after the 4 pm check-in time, and I had to call to get it and wait for a call-back too. Expedia has been very poor, the virtual online assistance froze and wouldn’t allow further typing, and the phone number put you in a circular loop and never answered with an actual person. I won’t use Expedia again after being a long-time user, not the first poor experience. The additional $65 property fee per night added after booking is also not appropriate and a negative for future bookings. Friends have asked about the experience, and these issues plus the $65 surcharge after booking are viewed negatively by everyone and not a good business practice. Expedia was just very poor on customer service.

This was an interesting and unique property. Very clean with spacious bedrooms and comfy bed. The claw foot tub fit in well with the decor but if you have mobility issues, it could be harder to use. And they did ask for you to not wear street shoes inside the mansion to protect the flooring. But we enjoyed our stay! The coffee maker in the breakfast area is great and the pastries were tasty!

We loved our stay. The room we stayed in was beautiful and so private. We did not know that we would not be staying in the mansion, so it was a shock to find out we were staying above the garage. It turned out perfectly and we really enjoyed the privacy!! Just feel you should share this with people when they look to reserve a room. We would recommend and stay here again Thank you!

I booked a weekend at the Cotton Mansion, and I must say I was relieved. Everyone told me to stay at a place on Canal park or around, but the Cotton Mansion was perfect. It's elegant inside and very clean. Each general area room is inviting, well-lit and comfortable. My room was beautiful, well-equipped and cozy. There was plenty of space to store my belongings, a large TV (which I never used but was a nice add) plus a large jacuzzi, which I did use! The staff were friendly and helpful. The place is well-secured and is located in a family-friendly neighborhood off the busy tourist hubs. That being said, everything I wanted to see/experience was a brief driving distance from the mansion. Also, included in my room were plenty of complimentary items like a hair dryer, makeup wipes, bottled water and snacks. Give this place a try, you'll be happy you did!

Felt like a grand vacation!
Feel so privileged to stay at the Cotton Mansion. Beautiful, top floor, spacious rooms with view of Duluth harbor in the distance. My sister and I were in the Billiards Room with full kitchen, 2 king-size bedrooms, large bathroom, living room. Such a luxury to have so much space at the same price of a regular hotel. Breakfast was homemade muffins, fruit, yogurt, great coffee. We will be back!

Very nice place to stay. Unique experience. If i had one suggestion it would be to either buy a tv that the background light turns off when you turn the tv off or provide a dark, light curtain to cover it. I found it hard to sleep with that light on all night.
