Hampton Inn & Suites Manistee Waterfront

Beautiful setting. Lovely!

Right on the beach. Staff is wonderful. Clean and comfy beds.

The location is the absolute best with beach access. There was a comfortable bar outside facing the beach. The breakfast was better than expected. My kids loved the pool and hottub which connected indoor to outdoor.

Hampton Inn waterfront was top notch! It was a great location for the beach. Easy walk across the street to the beach. Beach had accessibility for wheelchairs to get down to the lake. The hotel was very clean! All the staff were so friendly and helpful. There is an outside bar, restaurant on the top floor, live music certain nights on the patio, plenty of space for kids to play yard games, swing, or sit in the sand. Inside/ outside hot tub and inside pool. This hotel is definitely a great place to stay for couples or families!

I absolutely adore this place and return every single chance I get. The location is perfection. Aside from the location, hands down the best hotel I have ever stayed at (I’ve stayed at a lot). The rooms are beautiful and comfortable and new. The property inside is immaculate. The hot tub is stunning. The swing outside was a favorite. Endless activities and entertainment right out the door. Fire pits and games and a bar with tons of seating options. The breakfast was top tier. But aside from all of those things, the staff are truly amazing. They are there to help you in anyway possible and go so far above and beyond. It was honestly the little things that really really got me. A young man saw me struggling with all my stuff and kids and he stopped what he was doing and pushed the elevator button for me and held the door. Or the breakfast guy who went in the back and got something for my son to make him happy. Or the managers being as sweet and kind as possible and just plain friendly. It’s a real comfortable and inviting and wholesome environment. The beds are also pretty great!

Just went on a 10 day in vacation where we stayed at 5 different Hampton or Tru Hilton hotels throughout the west side of the Michigan. This was the most expensive hotel but by far our favorite and well worth the price. We had stayed here 3 years ago when it was brand new and it only has gotten better. We brought our son and his family this time. For a family the biggest plus of this hotel is its location right across the park street from the 1st street public beach. The beach has a playground and you can walk the long beach or the pier. Right on the other side of the hotel is another playground and park. The hotel amenities also are an added plus for the location. It has an indoor pool for when the weather is bad and also a very large partly indoor/ partly outdoor whirlpool that is nice for adults to relax in. The patio on the west side of the hotel is great for watching the sun set over the lake. They have 3 or 4 gas fire pits to add to the ambiance, with adirondack chairs, tables/chairs, several cushioned Rattan couches and wooden benches . A patio bar (this was not open the first time we stayed here - no liquor license at that time) is a nice convenience but can be busy. We stayed on a Wed and Thurs night and they added a guitarist/singer on the patio for Thurs evening. As we sat enjoying drinks on the patio our grand kids played in the sand just in front of the patio. The hotel is well maintained and still looks new. The staff was very helpful and inviting. I used the fairly large exercise room (5 or so treadmills or elliptical machines and free weights, plus plenty of room to just exercise or do yoga). The plus is that the machines look out through floor to ceiling windows that look upon the beach. That morning I spotted dear crossing the beach. The breakfast was up to Hampton standards with usual fare of hot eggs, bacon, sausage pancakes, cold cereals, danish, juices etc. This Hampton also has a small bar and restaurant on the top floor (5th) that provides great views of the beach, lake and harbor. The restaurant is upscale cuisine with a more limited menu than the typical chain restaurant and higher price, but the food is great tasting and presented great. The odd sides rooms face away from the beach on the 4th floor so get an even number if you want a small balcony to watch the beach and sunset, but with the available patio we didn't mind the odd numbered rooms. The hotel is about a mile from downtown Manistee but there is a walkway along the river if you want the exercise.

Last minute trip up north and found this really great hotel. The views are amazing, really friendly service, clean, rooms, great food, and even better drinks! When I come back up to Manistee, I'll be sure to stay there again.

The property was beautiful. The view is great, but only having your room is clean every other day seems ridiculous while in Europe, they clean them every day and give a deluxe breakfast for free instead of a very basic set of food.

We recently spent the weekend at the Hampton Inn & Suites in Manistee, MI, and had a wonderful experience. The staff were exceptionally welcoming, the hotel was spotlessly clean, and the amenities made our stay even more enjoyable. Despite the hotel being fully booked, it was remarkably quiet and peaceful throughout our visit. Overall, it’s a great hotel in a fantastic location. We look forward to staying again.
