We loved our stay. The room we stayed in was beautiful and so private. We did not know that we would not be staying in the mansion, so it was a shock to find out we were staying above the garage. It turned out perfectly and we really enjoyed the privacy!! Just feel you should share this with people when they look to reserve a room. We would recommend and stay here again Thank you!

I booked a weekend at the Cotton Mansion, and I must say I was relieved. Everyone told me to stay at a place on Canal park or around, but the Cotton Mansion was perfect. It's elegant inside and very clean. Each general area room is inviting, well-lit and comfortable. My room was beautiful, well-equipped and cozy. There was plenty of space to store my belongings, a large TV (which I never used but was a nice add) plus a large jacuzzi, which I did use! The staff were friendly and helpful. The place is well-secured and is located in a family-friendly neighborhood off the busy tourist hubs. That being said, everything I wanted to see/experience was a brief driving distance from the mansion. Also, included in my room were plenty of complimentary items like a hair dryer, makeup wipes, bottled water and snacks. Give this place a try, you'll be happy you did!

Felt like a grand vacation!
Feel so privileged to stay at the Cotton Mansion. Beautiful, top floor, spacious rooms with view of Duluth harbor in the distance. My sister and I were in the Billiards Room with full kitchen, 2 king-size bedrooms, large bathroom, living room. Such a luxury to have so much space at the same price of a regular hotel. Breakfast was homemade muffins, fruit, yogurt, great coffee. We will be back!

Very nice place to stay. Unique experience. If i had one suggestion it would be to either buy a tv that the background light turns off when you turn the tv off or provide a dark, light curtain to cover it. I found it hard to sleep with that light on all night.

It was a new experience for my wife and I to stay in a stately old mansion. You have to put away from your mind any concepts of modern amenities, like a pool and full-service bar, because this is a different kind of facility. Your experience here is focused on the grandeur of the place, the quiet mood that surrounds you, and the feeling of history that you get when you walk around. There is, of course, full internet service and TV with three quality streaming services available. It was nice to explore the city during the day, and then come "home" to a rich, quiet accommodation with massive facility basically all yours to enjoy.

The historic nature of the property was impressive. The furniture and decorative elements were gorgeous. The morning treats were good. Everything was spotless and secure. There was an electrical strip for plugging in devices. However, this property is not for anyone with mobility issues. The staircase is long without sufficient railing. My room had a jacuzzi with shower but it was inaccessible to me because the tub surface was slippery. And bring a book light if you intend to read in the evening.

Nothing unique about this property it's an old mansion there are a lot of them in Duluth some of them that an updated as being B is better than others this to me was totally thoughtless overall very few lamps very few light switches it was advertised as a bed and breakfast it was not there was no breakfast when the people that own the suite called me and I said no breakfast she says oh no haha did they advertise it on Expedia so no I would not recommend this place to anyone also it had no live TV the love seat was an overstuffed dirty cloth piece of furniture that I would not sit on unless I put towels down the facility itself was dark and uninviting I was raised in Duluth I've been in many mansions this one just looks like they didn't even bother to try it's an old place people will be impressed so I wasn't

Very unique, loved the style and architecture. Lovely area of period homes; quiet. Outside needs some work, roof was being done. What I didnt like was the room we were in had a jacuzzi right in the bedroom area which I felt ruined the ambience. But we chose that room,so our fault.
