Murray Hotel

The room worked for what we needed however the over bearing smell of Mexican food ruined our visit. We woke up daily to the smell of food in our room which then transferred yo all of our clothing and outerwear. We smelled like onion and taco seasoning everywhere we went. Had we known there was a Burrito restaurant ,cooking all day everyday, in the lobby without proper ventilation we would have booked elsewhere. Image walking into a restaurant or shop smelling like pungent spices and onions. We had to leave our luggage in our garage to air out. It was extremely frustrating ro deal with! I attempted to speak with someone about our concerns, yet each time we attempted there wasn’t anyone available. For the price we paid, the experience was ridiculous. This was our first stay at the Murray Hotel and it will definitely be our last. FYI, we are avid travelers and very laid back. However the stigma we experienced impacted our trip and limited the number of places we felt comfortable visiting. We did not want to be those people that smelled terrible in the enclosed places. If you cannot handle smelling like cooked taco/burrito meat with onions, avoid the Murray at all costs. Not to mention the coat we incurred for the dry cleaning of our coats and a few sweaters. Big let down!!

The location and charm of Murray had me back for a second visit. The unique rooms and hallways and amazingly kind staff make the visit truly magical. Love being right on Main Street!

Nice hotel with old feel charm. The room was a little small and only had one chair (no table) for sitting. The room was a little noisy, I wouldn’t want to be there during the busy season.

The Murray is a nice, clean, comfortable hotel in the middle of all the action. The people there are very nice and helpful.

Always a pleasure to stay at the Murray. Welcoming staff and comfortable room with the creamiest fudge on Mackinac! Love Allison's enthusiasm and the free fudge samples.

I loved the Victorian decor and the old pictures hung everywhere. I took time just to walk the hallways and look at the pictures/. I also liked that they allowed me to leave my luggage after checkout to go explore the island. This was very appreciated.

Good location. But rooms were not very quiet. Does not offer a refrigerator and the TV and channel selection is inadequate.

Easy access from Star Line Ferry, almost directly across the street. Hotel was roomy and comfortable. Highly recommended.

excellent location. couldnt be more central. great access from ferry. saved us with a borrowed phone charger cord. towels were thin and scratchy. restaurant didn't look like something I would want to try but you could not beat the location and price.
