I love The Bay Inn. I have stayed here multiple times over the last two years. It’s my go to property when I come to the area.. the rooms are beautiful. The beds are the most comfortable bed I’ve ever slept on in a hotel. The staff is outstanding, very communicative and super sweet..

8/10 Good

Updated older hotel. My room was very nice and clean. I feel that $400 a night was overpriced but that seems to be the cost of the area.
Tammy, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The room was not a cookie cutter hotel room. Colors were very beautiful and calming, with nice decorating. A beautiful view of the lake. And we were able to tune in the Tigers game ... with a 12-2 win!!
Diane, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Convenient location, just outside Petoskey. Little Traverse Wheelway runs nearby (currently right on the shoulder of us31). Beds are micro-foam mattresses , takes a little getting used to. Overall very nice.
Hunter, 3-night trip

Bed was comfortable. Room was clean No issues on check in or check out Good value for money
Rachel, 5-night trip

The location was great. Nice view of the bay. Private. Housekeeping is not great. There is no ice machine or vending. Only hotel I've ever been to that doesn't have phones. I still enjoyed my stay here. The location is very nice.
Alice, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We had a clean, aesthetically pleasing room with a very comfortable bed. Check in/Check out was very convenient and easy. We had no issues with road noise or thin walls. The Inn has beautiful views and we enjoyed the outdoor fire places and caught a stunning sunset. The Inn’s location is close to everything we wanted to do on our trip in Northern Michigan and will definitely book again.
Such a cute room with decor that has tasteful nods to the area
View from the patio area right across from the lake!
We caught a beautiful sunset right from the patio!

It was very unique and cute. Good decor. But not great workmanship and very noisy family above us. Scenery was awesome overlooking the bay. Comfortable beds
Patricia, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Beautiful view. Close to downtown. We left something valuable behind and called to inquire if they found it. Courtney did and shipped it to us and didn’t charge us. She sent above and beyond and we are grateful!!
Karen, 4-night trip

10/10 Excellent

It is a small hotel that overlooks Little Traverse Bay. The views are amazing and the rooms are beautiful. The beds are so comfortable. It is truly a hidden gem
Michelle, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

The room had a very musty smell, also the tv wasn’t user friendly
James, 3-night trip

Cozy room and great view!
Cassie, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

The smell of the room was awful!! It was a mix of a old dirty gym bag and cat urine. The decor was nice and bed was comfortable.

6/10 Okay

Our room was not in a great location and hidden way back off of the main building. The main building has a beautiful view of the water and unfortunately we had none. The Wi-Fi was slow and continually disconnected along with the television searching for a signal every five minutes.
