“A great place, at a great price.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 August 2011

people found this review helpful

I stayed here with my wife and two small children for four nights and it was great. The cost very low and much better than my friends staying at a big resort on Gull Lake. Breakfast is good and has a nice variety of foods and they have pizzas for sale for $6 (at night). The pool was great and the hot tub superb.

“Very nice hotel”

We came upon this hotel accidently and decided to stay at it after a long night of driving. The lobby is very nice, almost chalet like and the rooms were large and clean. The location was convenient to both the highway and the shopping area as well as restaurants. My kids loved the pool as well.

“This Hotel is now Crossings by Grandstay”

We have an upcoming trip planned to this area and because of the several great reviews we wanted to give this place a chance. After several attempts to book with Hawthorn Suites, I was finally informed that they no longer own this property. Through further investigation, found the new owners to be Crossings by Grandstay. I will post a new report after our stay but wanted to share the information.

“Best kept secret in Brainerd”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 August 2010

We had a wonderful experience at the Hawthorn. Expectations were low as we frequently are disappointed. The service was great from the start when we made the reservation. When we checked in the gal behind the desk was very friendly and gave us all the information we asked for with total professionalism. The main lobby was beautiful. Our room was very spacious, very clean and the bed comfy. It also came with a cute balcony. Wish we could have stayed longer to use the pool etc. What a deal, as they give AARP and AAA discounts plus a hot breakfast. The breakfast was I'd say better than a restaurant. Scambled eggs, great sausage links, pancakes, juice, toast, cereal coffee there and in the room. A terrific value for the money! The staff was just kept filling the pans. The parking lot was very well lite.
Wasn't crazy about the placement of the elevator. Too many blind corners. The elevator was fast, not a wait forever type.

“Great Stay!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 July 2010

During the Fourth of July, our family had a "Girls Night Out" at this property. Left the children and men at the cabin and headed into town. The staff was professional, rooms clean and spacious, beds comfortable, nice sauna, hot tub and pool. The breakfast was fine and the lobby had a nice ambiance and pleasant atmosphere. This was also a good value and we would stay again. I heard that this property may be changed to a Quality Inn so if you look at staying here, check out that name.
