Loved the Northport Inn for a weekend getaway in Northern Michigan. Close to everything but secluded enough that you can relax.The inn was clean and well maintained. A lot of reviews mentioned thin walls, but we had no issues. Easy communication and plenty of avenues for help had anything come up during our stay (nothing came up - these folks have it down!)Would definitely make it a point to stay there again.Rooms: Room was clean, spacious, and bright. It ran a little hot so I was glad I brought a fan with, but I'm sure we could have found a different solution if I wasn't obsessive about always bringing one with me.Nearby activities: Several restaurants/bars within walking distance, many wineries and bars just a quick drive down the road, easy access to Traverse City, Suttons Bay, etc... We also went to the Strongheart Civic Center to play disc golf and it was only a 15 min drive way.Walkability: Less than 2 blocks for 4-5 restaurants/bars, a grocery store, a book store, a bakery, a cafe, literally anything you would need during your stay.

Fit the bill, met our needs for our short trip. Pros-right downtown, in the heart of Northport with self check-in. Clean room. Modern bathroom. Nice wide tub. Easy street parking. Well lit outdoors. Map of area provided. Cons-no rugs at either door in our room & it rained throughout our stay. We opted to use bath rug by the door. Also front door didn't shut tight when we tried. First line security is questionable. There was also a ruckus at the restaurant kitty corner to inn. Might not have noticed door issue otherwise. Also room wouldn't let me engage deadbolt while in room. Lock malfunction?! Lastly, hubby Couldn't get temp down in room, however we were thankful we could open window and deck door to get comfortable. Suggestions-the one chair provided is really worn. A small desk workspace or side table. Some additional art on walls, one piece leaves place feeling sterile. Robes esp since microwave is in hall.Loved the entry table, stunning piece!! Would love to see a couple of comfortable chairs in front of fireplace downstairs. Also, you can hear everything thru the walls. Keep in mind if it's an adult getaway ;)Also no vouchers for coffee shop or wine tasting room as yelp add stated. Gym is separate business and additional $10 per person, per day.

Excellent value, clean, comfortable room. Note: if you go to bed early (or are a light sleeper), bring earplugs.

Loved the Inn, the location was great. Easy access to Suttons Bay, Glen Arbor and Leland. Visited all of our favorite spots, enjoyed Northport as a home base with a grocery store next door and good restaurants all around Northport and surrounding area. We will stay there again.Rooms: Rooms were larger than expected with plenty of extra space.

Doing a bike trip around the peninsula and came into town early. Jeanette answers my call quickly and said we could get in the room early because they had finished cleaning. What a treat considering the heat!Elevator and rooms easily fit our two touring bikes.Overall the room was quite good. Modern bathroom compared to the B&Bs we were staying at. The walls, however, are quite transmissible of sound - we could hear conversations over the a/c unit on either side. But it’s not the first time we have used ear plugs for sleeping so no big deal. Bed was a little soft for my tastes, might be spot on for yours

Stayed at the Northport Inn on a random Wednesday night to enjoy the Jazz band that evening. Service and band were great and the food was delicious! Check in was very simple just using the code with the room was very cozy and spacious. Perfect area with tiny shops and restaurants nearby to visit, loved New Bohemian Cafe (Got the Lox).Would recommend this place, I know I cannot wait to go back!

We had the following issues at our stay over the weekend:Dirty bed blanket- big stain on the duvetMissing paint on door in bathroomMissing paint on wall where towel bar was movedWent to change toilet paper and the whole holder fell off the wallNo shower headTV doesn’t work - couldn’t load any apps even after connecting to the internetWeird towel in bottom of fridgeNo parking- had to park on the street which made us very uncomfortableThe ledges in the main area were filthy and covered in dead bugsAnd to top it all off: We were woken up by loud knocking on door well before checkout!!! They were “just checking to see if we were still in the room” and we were sleeping! No apology was given.

What more can you ask for! The location, a clean and comfortable room, and I woke up to a beautiful sunrise. The northport inn checked all the boxes and I can't wait to get back!

It was a very nice place to stay,they just need to add a bedside digital alarm clock to each room and bar to help when getting out of the bathtub.

Hotel for people who don’t go to bed before 11 or 12. Rooms were extremely noisy. Band downstairs until 9:30, (at least on Sat), could hear TV in next room as clear as if it were in our room. Room small but clean, and if you like bar soap for your face or lotion for your body, bring your own. Bed sagged towards middle. Great location. No staff available. Would not stay there again.

Enjoyed our stay and will be back again!Walkability: Restaurants and grocery store within walking distance for snacks and meals.

The Northport Inn is an interesting property. From what we read, these are new owners. It is clear they are investing in hotel, with a beautiful lobby area. There are only nine rooms, all on the second floor; accessible by elevator and by a staircase.The rooms themselves, however, are a different story. There is no front desk; you are sent a code via email to unlock your room. If you code doesn't work - like ours didn't - you have to call a phone number and get a new code. This worked fine but was an unsettling experience.Our room, number 3, was an ADA-accessible room with a huge bathroom. The rest of the room was a nice large size, as well. But it was the details in which the Northport Inn fell short:> The in-room refrigerator was ancient and visibly beat up.> The in-room coffee maker didn't work.> Instead of an in-room microwave, there is a microwave on a cart in the hallway, presumably for all guests to share.> The smart TV screen was laughably small.> The "table for four" mentioned on the website had just two chairs. The table itself was very tiny; if there had been four chairs, they probably wouldn't all fit.> The couch/sleeper was not comfortable or steady.> All of the furniture, shelves, etc., appeared to be rehomed from IKEA. Further, some pieces of furniture shown on the website - a recliner-type chair and a coffee table - were missing from room 203.The Northport Inn clearly has potential but it's not yet the "luxurious, sophisticated inn" it professes to be on its website.
