Having stayed in many of the hotels in Ely Minnesota, Adventure Inn is one of the best. With ample parking, very clean rooms, fresh coffee and scones ( best I have had) or apple turnovers this is the place to stay. More

Very clean, good location, owners are very involved and accommodating - and we appreciate their commitment to be "green" as well. We hope to stay there each year on our annual visits to Ely! More

My husband and I had the pleasure of staying for 3 nights at The Adventure Inn recently on either side of our BWCA trip. We found the inn to be very clean and well-taken care of. It's true charm emerges when you've been there a few hours, and discover that it produces its own hot water (solar), was built using... More

We stayed in the new part of the hotel. The rooms were spotless and very comfortable. The staff were very friendly and helpful. They let us dry our clothes that got wet on a boat trip in their dryer. It is on the main drag of town so it can be a little noisy More

We spent one night here on our way to the BWCA. This was very convenient to restaurants, shops and the Ely ranger station. Hotel owners were very friendly and helpful with directions. We stayed in the new section of the hotel - very modern and clean. More

At least twice a year (sometimes three), I go canoe camping in the BWCA. For the past three years, I've always booked a room at the Adventure Inn for the night before put-in. If you're looking for a four-star hotel, you wont find one in Ely (check out the Blue Heron Bed and Breakfast if you want something fancier). However,... More

Thank you for your kind words and vote of confidance. Our brand new building which replaced the really OLD buildings has been well received. It is funny to hear that the back building which is 9 yrs old is now our new "old" building. We so appreciate our Adventure Inn guests! Sue More

By pure luck we had the pleasure of staying at Adventure Inn Saturday night of the Blueberry Festival. Our previous night accomodations at another motel was a living nightmare. When I walked into the Adventure Inn office in tears early Saturday morning, they had a room just come available due to an early departure and Irene was so friendly and... More

I stayed here with some friends for a few days before and after a canoe trip in the area - the hotel itself was perfectly adequate for our needs - comfortable, hot showers and very good coffee in the mornings.. What really made the place special was the warm welcome from Sue, her husband and their helpful staff ! More
