Reviews of Hampton Inn St Ignace Lakefront Mackinac highlight a clean lakeside property with friendly staff, scenic views of Lake Huron and Mackinac Island, comfortable rooms, a well-liked breakfast, and amenities including pool, hot tub, arcade, patios, and a bar.
Many guests also praise the pet-friendly approach, the large lobby, and convenient access for island ferries and local sightseeing. A few report front-desk or check-in problems, occasional issues with the pool or hot tub, buggy or smelly conditions near the beach, and isolated complaints about hard mattresses or weak Wi-Fi. Expect a scenic, well-kept lakefront stay with generally strong service and amenities.

I would highly recommend Hampton Inn at St Ignace. We brought our two pups with us and they were welcomed with open arms. We were thrilled with our view of Lake Huron, and our chance to walk the dogs right on the lakeshore. The big lobby with the gorgeous view AND the nightly bar/bartender were added bonuses. We didn't take advantage of the pool, gym, or game room but if we had stayed longer, we definitely would have. Our room and ALL of the public areas were spotless!

As soon as you walked into the hotel it stunk. Dead flies all over by the entrance, some one could of swept them up. "Carlos" that checked us in was very rude. We had requested a lake side room, nothing was ready he said, pool was dirty and when I walked back to the desk to tell him we couldn't get teh hot tub to work, he said "I'm alone, what do you want me to do about it? When he figured out I wasn't taking that answer he went to the hot tub, called someone and got it going and just left. Said nothing! Never will stay there again.

For a new hotel, I was hoping for a clean overall place. Mayflies were everywhere. The beach front was kind of trashy. The hot tub was dirty and ornamental grass blocked the view of the water & Mackinac Island. It wasn't worth the money I paid to stay there.

We had an incredible stay here with family for a mini-spring break getaway. The views are unbeatable, everything was clean and comfy, and we lived in the pool and outdoor hot tub. We had easy access to downtown st ignace and even ventured to Mackinac City for some great Mexican food. Do not sleep on St. Ignace in the off-season!! This was our second stay here this winter and we are already planning on coming back again!

Everything was new and clean. The area felt really safe (directly across the street from the police department). The breakfast was what you'd expect. The view is amazing. We stayed one night ON Mackinac Island and this was WAY better than that experience. This place was quiet inside and out, comfy bed, very spacious. I'd stay here again.

Great newer hotel. Very clean and inviting. Rooms are nice and the room balcony and lobby is very nice overlooking the lake and Mackinac Island. We were thinking that it reminds us of a cruise ship with the patio opened at night. Although because of the sound of others air or heat running we couldn’t hear the waves that much. The free breakfast had biscuits and gravy, small egg omelets with cheese, make your own waffles (with fruit topping), cereals, pastries, bread and drinks. Sufficient before heading to the island in the morning. Great one night stay for us.

The property itself is soulless. It has a very cold, commercial feel to it. Staff are friendly enough. The room itself just doesn’t make sense in so many ways. Why is there no towel hook by the shower? Why is there no lighting for the sofa for me to read a book? And why is there a three bulb lamp in the corner with a small table that serves no purpose? I ended up, dragging the lamp over to the sofa to the limits of its cord. The entire side of the room is getting left in darkness with no overhead lighting, no task, lighting, and no ambient lighting. I hope you didn’t actually pay someone to design this. The bed is somehow both too firm and too soft on the top, resulting in lower backache. Where is the in room safe?

I booked a room for myself and 4 children. The room that was assigned to us was great! It was very roomy with a king size bed, a set of bunk beds, and a pull-out sleeper couch. The room was immaculate and free of stains & repairs. The kids loved the kitchenette. Everything was very user-friendly and allowed them to be self-sufficient in making their own snacks. I was able to connect my Netflix account to the hotel tv so we could watch a movie before bed. Only two downsides was the view. Our room was right over the hotel’s main entrance so we had the backside of the lit-up awning as our view, which was quite boring. But the breakfast area and outdoor patio opened up to a beautiful view of the lake. We never had time to visit the pool or arcade. Also, we woke up too late to sample the continental breakfast to know how it rated. I would definitely stay at this location again, maybe try to get a lakeside room next time. The hotel is on the main drag but further down the road, away from all the restaurants and Shepler’s Ferry, it was very peaceful without any road noise.

When I got to the hotel, the front desk clerk thought i had checked in online, i hadn't. I was given a room that had the interior door block turned so I couldn't get in. I told thr clerk someone alse was in the room. She didn't believe me and came with me to openthe door but then the key card wouldn't work. She later still claimed that no one else should be in the room, even though she had already checked me into another room - a room with 2 queen beds, which was a cheaper rate than the king room I booked. Other wierd thing - the other guests in the room knew my name... said my name was on the tv when they arrived hours earlier. Something's really not right with their booking system.

Scenic lakefront setting with beautiful views and sunsets, and convenient for Mackinac Island ferries and exploring nearby areas; many found it quiet and safe. A few noted bugs or beach odors and that it’s a bit away from restaurants.

Great newer hotel. Very clean and inviting. Rooms are nice and the room balcony and lobby is very nice overlooking the lake and Mackinac Island. We were thinking that it reminds us of a cruise ship with the patio opened at night. Although because of the sound of others air or heat running we couldn’t hear the waves that much. The free breakfast had biscuits and gravy, small egg omelets with cheese, make your own waffles (with fruit topping), cereals, pastries, bread and drinks. Sufficient before heading to the island in the morning. Great one night stay for us.

Great alternative to Mackinac City. Worth the views from the patio-get a balcony or water view. My view was of the parking lot.

I booked a room for myself and 4 children. The room that was assigned to us was great! It was very roomy with a king size bed, a set of bunk beds, and a pull-out sleeper couch. The room was immaculate and free of stains & repairs. The kids loved the kitchenette. Everything was very user-friendly and allowed them to be self-sufficient in making their own snacks. I was able to connect my Netflix account to the hotel tv so we could watch a movie before bed. Only two downsides was the view. Our room was right over the hotel’s main entrance so we had the backside of the lit-up awning as our view, which was quite boring. But the breakfast area and outdoor patio opened up to a beautiful view of the lake. We never had time to visit the pool or arcade. Also, we woke up too late to sample the continental breakfast to know how it rated. I would definitely stay at this location again, maybe try to get a lakeside room next time. The hotel is on the main drag but further down the road, away from all the restaurants and Shepler’s Ferry, it was very peaceful without any road noise.

Great location on the lake and a perfect place to enjoy the sunset and moon rise with a glass of wine. Perfect location for exploring Mackinaw city and for setting off for Mackinac Island.

Everything was new and clean. The area felt really safe (directly across the street from the police department). The breakfast was what you'd expect. The view is amazing. We stayed one night ON Mackinac Island and this was WAY better than that experience. This place was quiet inside and out, comfy bed, very spacious. I'd stay here again.

Not sure if we got there at a bad time, but the whole town was full of flying little black bugs. This made it hard to enjoy anything about the area. The hotel itself is great. Very comfortable and clean, and truly the bug issue was very much out of the hotel’s control, but still affects the experience.

Warm and friendly welcome! Our room had the thermostat set so our room was warmed up when we arrived on a very chilly winter day. The breakfast was great and everything was nice and clean. After a long day if driving it was just what we were looking for.

Hampton needs to get in line with Hotels.com. Upon check-in I let the desk know that we had our dog with us. The attendant was kind of a little flippant and was doing stuff on the computer. Then, after 3-4 min, just told me to put my debit card in the reader for $75. I asked if this was for the pet fee or what? He then proceeded to tell me he almost had to cancel our check-in and went on and on about it. So I paid the $75. Then when we were checking out today, I had to pay yet another $218 because I was being told the card I paid with declined. So I paid that. The card I paid with initially had the room amount deducted, so I essentially paid over $500 for a room that wasnt very comfortable, breakfast was mediocre, and I felt like a hassle to the staff. I didn't feel like we were very welcome there at all.

Very noisy rooms hard to sleep people yelling all night you can hear them like there in the same room. Also if anyone goes in and out of there room your going to hear it walls are very thin not worth how expensive it is.
