Wadena

"I have stayed at this facility before and I am always please with how accommodating they are, how friendly the staff is and the rooms are clean, comfortable and they seem to always go a little over and above to make my stay better whether it is upgrading my room if they can, allowing me to check in a little bit early so I don't have to sit and wait in my car, and allowing for late checkouts at last minute or in one case having to book an extra night due to a snow storm. I have been very happy...

Top Detroit Lakes Hotel Reviews

Best Western Premier The Lodge on Lake Detroit

10/10 Excellent

"Actually breakfast would be better with a choice of meat. Not everyone likes chorizo patties and bacon would be a good second choice for those who don’t care for spicy food"

Beachfront Haven

10/10 Excellent

"Great find! Enjoyed our stay - cozy room with a wonderful view of the Lake. Walkable to bars and restaurants along the lake. Minor little inconveniences - no coffee pods for the coffee maker so had to run to the nearest grocery store but wasn’t too far. Loved the Aveda products in the bathroom but shower soap and body lotion were empty. Would love to return again and would recommend!"

Delta Hotels by Marriott Fargo

8/10 Good

"If wanting to be picked up from the airport via the hotel shuttle, be sure to keep alert to the timeframe they tell you. Don't know what was happening on the hotel end, but they forgot us. And it was my fault, that I assumed they were coming. An hour later I called again and they said "Oh it will be 15 minutes". I said you told us that 1 hour ago. So I think they forgot us. Anyhoo, 20 minutes later someone arrived to drive us. Hotel stay was good. Drive back to the airport the next day was appreciated and easy."
