“Cozy, everything you need in one place!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 January 2012

The Perry is a charming hotel in a great location in beautiful Petoskey. The rooms are comfortable, clean, and they have the softest sheets ever! It's an old, historic hotel, so know that it's different from a modern hotel- set your expectations accordingly. They take great care of you. If your drain is stopped up, they're there in a flash.
As far as food goes, they cover all the bases. The breakfast in the Rose Room was outstanding- beautiful presentation, absolutely yummy (and they give you a $25 voucher for it). I highly recommend their egg white omelet with aspargus, spinach and feta cheese! Great wait staff in the mornings. The Noggin Room's food is casual and tasty-having entertainment that's good for young and old is a big plus (weekends in the winter).

You can walk a block and have fun shopping and other dining (I recommend Chandler's).

If you want a lovely, comfortable place to stay in Petoskey that's within walking distance of downtown, the Perry's it. (If you're looking for something even more restful, check out Stafford's Bay View Inn.)

Thank you for sharing your experience at our hotel with the followers of trip advisor. Petoskey is a great destination any time of year and we are proud to be the downtown hub of our resort town. As you mentioned, a 110 year old building does have its challenges from time to time but our staff is quick to respond so that any issues are resolved. Happy Travels!

“The Perry Hotel was ideal for a relaxing historic stay for our ski trip”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 December 2011

We just returned home after our annual family ski trip to Boyne Mountain. Staying at the Perry Hotel was a treat. We love the quaint 1899 historic hotel and the beautiful downtown of Petoskey at Christmas time. The hotel is located on the banks of Traverse Bay with beautiful views. Our family decided that we would like to go back in the summer for another get away. We ate breakfast at the hotel each morning, but it was delicious!

“Perry Hotel - Outstanding!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 November 2011

Being alone over Thanksgiving, we reserved the Thanksgiving Special at the Perry Hotel. This included a two night hotel room (we upgraded to bay view), Thanksgiving dinner for two, breakfast vouchers for two and $40.00 in shopping vouchers.
The room was tastefully appointed with a comfortable king size bed (small quirk – could not watch Lions football from the sofa) and small all white bath which was sparklingly clean. Thanksgiving dinner was buffet style and absolutely delicious. Breakfast vouchers covered a reasonable breakfast and only the gratuities were required for all meals.
The Perry Hotel was an outstanding weekend in all respects and I am sure we will be returning.

“The Perry Hotel at Christmastime...PERFECT!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 November 2011

It was the Sunday after Thanksgiving...no snow but almost Currier and Ives lovely, due to the beauty of the hotel and the efforts of caring hotel staff. The 8 trees located throughout the hotel were adorned with tasteful lights and ornaments which fit into the 1899 hotel.

Room Tip: Request a room with either a view of the Little Traverse Bay or downtown OR, as we did, BOTH!

“Great weekend getaway”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 November 2011

Just spent Thanksgiving weekend at the Perry. It's the best deal going, adjoining rooms, bayview, breakfast each morning, Thanksgiving dinner and Merchant Bucks to spend in town! Great property, spotlessly clean, everyone (without exception) was helpful and very nice. Beds comfortable with good pillows (thank you) and quiet. The food is really good at breakfast, nice bar downstairs with entertainment. It's a perfect base to explore Petosky and the surrounding area. Wonderful trail along the bay for walking, running and biking. Can't find anything bad to say. Great weekend! Would certainly return and recommend.
