Search hotels in Grand Rapids, MN

Grand Rapids is a Great Place to visit! Avoid the Itascan Motel! We booked a room there but it was so in need of repair and dirty that we decided not to stay. We were happy to get out of there even though we had to pay the cost of staying at another hotel in Grand Rapids.

Well, we were there specifically to see several museums and unfortunately all of them were either closed (after Labor Day) or had been transformed into something else. Luckily, it was easy to get in or out of town and be on our way.

I live in southern Minnesota. I get 3weeks of vacation per year, and all of it is spent in the Grand Rapids area hunting and fishing. I've been "going up north" to this area for 42 years and love it. I hunt and fish in southern Minnesota a lot, but when I'm up north, It's peaceful and quiet and most places we go are off the beaten path back in the woods and we don't see any humans, just animals.

This small hotel is easy to miss but totally out-performs all the big chains!!! The rooms are smaller but furnished very modern (almost like our daughters retro furniture). I was shocked when I saw it had a full kitchen-like area complete with not only a fridge and microwave but with dishes, silverware, can opener, wine glasses and other necessities - lol!!! The breakfast was amazing!!! Instead of the usual buffet or grab-n-go stuff these days they had an actual menu where you could order what you wanted (mostly crepes and fruit which are their specialties) and then each guest receives a $10 credit towards the breakfasts which are pretty reasonable to begin with. I had the smoked salmon crepe and it was amazing!!! The wife had a strawberry cream crepe and it was also amazing. With coffee discounts and tip it came to about $10 which it's easily worth. All of the staff are really nice. We'll definitely be returning here in the future!!!
