Nice older hotel right in the middle of town. Perfect location for a weekend getaway.

I’ve stayed at the Murray before so I knew what to expect. What I DIDNT expect is to come home with bites all over my ankles and realize I also brought home fleas!!! Unfortunately I placed my suitcase on the floor & left it open. I hadn’t had a vacation in a long time, I was so excited and just didn’t think about it. I’ve never have had fleas even when I had animals. I had bomb/fog the entire house and then clean and wash everything. Fun times after vaca. And hope I don’t see more in a couple weeks to do it all over again before the holidays. I’m still so grossed out. I paid a lot to stay overnight 3 nights & should not have this happen. Lots of dogs on the island now & most don’t look happy to be there. Barking echos through town. And I am a dog lover. Just so disappointed & my feet/ankles are still healing. I sent a message to them before doing a public review… crickets. Otherwise the location is excellent.. we didn’t spend time in the room anyway. Always out shopping, eating & riding.. guess they munched down while I was tired and sleeping. YUCK!!!
The hotel was nice. But we had no luggage racks in the room, our room was small. We felt crowded. We could not get our devices on the WiFi. The small amenities that we take for granted were missing.
The staff and luggage porter were great. They have a nice hot tub that we were not able to use. The Mexican restaurant in the lobby, where we ate twice, was good but sort of filled the entire hotel with the smell of food. Overall, ok. We probably would not stay there again.
We loved the classic decor, with an updated bathroom with a big tub. Close to the local market for anything we needed and the park because we are smokers. We didn't use the hot tub pool, but the area looked wonderful and not over-crowded. Walls are thin, but not too noisy with other's respect. We were located by the ice machine which is used 7am to 10pm, but we were okay with that. We enjoyed the hotel and its location!

While booking was lied to by the front desk only to allow a couple to do the exact thing I was trying to do over the phone. Rooms need updated severely. Should have just stayed in the city for the price of what we were getting. We would have been better sleeping in the chairs in the room that were provided instead of the bed. WOULD NOT RECOMMEND. Looks like they spend the money on the hot tub instead of updating.
The Murray is such a jewel right in the middle of everything important downtown on Mackinac Island. I only stayed 2 nights this time next i will need atleqst 3 possibly 4. I got to ride a horse for 2 hrs thru the state park w my friend who is a guide at Cindys Riding Stable. I went alone to the island and I will go again asap but maybe during the color change. The Murray is so cool! The rooms are old fashioned and i think its great.
