I've stayed here a few times over the last ten years or so with work. They charged $95.00 a night, so I will base my review on that cost. This is a very clean and comfortable hotel. There is a continental brakefast in the morning. The beds are comfortable. Check in was quick and professional. There can be a bit... More

My husband and I stayed here on leg three of the Superior Circle Tour due to weather . I booked based on a tripadvisor review and it suited us just fine . Arrive, cover the bikes , shower , find a place to eat and crash . It's a decent place in an odd little desolate town . This place... More

The rooms are clean and well-appointed and surprisingly quiet since it it on the main street of town. Continental breakfast has all the usual items + a few surprises like scones and yogurt. There is no area to sit and eat breakfast but there is ample table and desk space in the rooms or a small table outside. Staff was... More

For travellers on the Trans-Canada Highway it is worth turning off the highway into Marathon in orer to stay at this motel, which is located on the right side of the road heading toward the downtown area. The rooms are modern & clean. The motel well maintained. There is a continental breakfast available. I found the staff to be pleasant... More

I don't know why this is listed as a B and B. It is a motel and a very good one at that. It was clean and the rooms were very well maintained. As far as the price, it is a good price as far as out of the area motels go. The wife and I paid $97 for the... More

We didn't miss some of our items including a camera until we got home. We never thought that we would see our possessions again. A friendly call let us know they would put our things in the mail. When I phoned to inquire how we could pay they said "Don't worry about it". Our stay at this motel was comfortable... More

Do not be fooled by the name. It is really a motel which is nowhere near the Harbour in Marathon. In fact looking out of our window at the back of the motel were propane tanks. There really is little choice of accommodations North of Superior between Sault Ste. Marie and Thunder Bay. Having said this there is nothing wrong... More

We stayed here on our bike trip around Lake Superior. The rooms were very clean and the hotel staff was very polite. There is a bar just a couple blocks from the hotel. I would highly recommend staying at this property.

When passing along the north shore of Lake Superior, and you find yourself needing a place to stay in Marathon, the Harbour Inn is the place to go! Continental breakfast offered with your stay, and rooms are fairly modern and clean. Not overly priced like some other small northern towns. Be sure to visit Pebble Beach!
