If I could give this hotel a rating of 6, I would. It is immaculately clean and beautifully restored. The service was incredible and the staff very accomdating. Food at JT's was excellent, as were the drinks and ambiance. We stayed in the Ramsdell Suite on the 4th floor - it was an incredible room, wonderful views, comfortable. The hotel... More

This is the place to stay in Manistee. Amazing Victorian Elegance & Spelendor-- I was transformed by the lobby and THEN I saw the rooms. Breathtaking...seriously.....I cannnot WAIT to get back here-This place should be on the Travel Channel. Ask Dannee in the restaurant to see the upstairs if the door is closed. There is an entrance from TJs Pub,... More

If you have never stayed at the Ramsdell Inn I highly recommend doing so! It's such an amazing view of the manistee river...right across the street from the board walk and not far from lake michigan! Just below the Inn is Tj's Pub which is a very classy restaurunt with live blues/jazz music....the building is completly renovated inside however the... More

Old bank building that has been renovated to an inn. Nicely done. Lots of steps. No elevator. Even inside the individual rooms there are steps from bathroom to bedroom, probably to allow for the plumbing. This isn't necessarily a bad thing and I did know it in advance. Each room is decorated differently which adds to the charm. The suites... More

This hotel is over priced for it's location. Manistee is so small that a cab ride to a less costly hotel is far more sensible. I love Manistee, but was disappointed by this unique hotel. Just my two cents, clearly in contrast to many.

Beautiful 130ish year old building, tastefully renovated, still retains its historic charm. There are only ten rooms, all different and unique. The... More

This was our 2nd visit in less than 4 months. The ambiance is fantastic for a romantic getaway. The staff are exceptionally helpful and courteous. Includes a very nice continental breakfast,... More

My boyfriend surprised me with a stay at the Ramsdell for the weekend of Valentine's Day. It was a beautiful historic inn. The staff was helpful and very attentive. I would definitely recommend this to other travelers. Great deals in the off season (1/2 price!) but probably worth the money for the downtown location in the Summer.

Husband surprised me w/a birthday getaway. We stayed in the Harbor Suite on the 3rd floor. Gorgeous room, exceptionally clean, comfy, and cozy. Cutest cushioned nook for dining & drinking champagn. Includes fireplace, robes, & huge king sized bed. We'd love to live there! We didn't use them, but includes DVD & CD player, plus fridge. Exceptional continental breakfast includes... More
