My brother and I went to Duluth to visit a family member in the hospital and needed a last minute place to stay. We found the Oliver Inn and booking a room, checking in, and get to the hotel was seamless and better than expected.

The room was comfortable, clean, and uniquely decorated. Check in was a breeze. The bar on site looked cozy, but despite the doors being open and someone sitting at the bar we were denied a much needed cocktail after a long drive in a storm.

Neat space located in the old city hall. Don't plan on going to sleep before 10pm as there is live music directly under you. They were fairly quiet by 10pm though. We had a power issue that was promptly handled by staff even though they aren't on site. I would stay again. The parking ramp across the street is very secure too.

This was a wonderful and cozy hotel with a "Speakeasy Vibe". The room was comfortable and clean. The beds were amazingly comfortable and the communication was on point. I woild absolutely stay again when in Duluth. The only negative is that the surrounding area is pretty rough looking and parking can be a challenge.
