I have stayed at the Thomas Edison about 4 times over a 2 year period and I have never had a bad experience. The rooms are very clean, the heated pool is great and hot tub. The Pub has great music and great service. The hotel is a bit antiquish and nothing fancy like marble floors etc. but really nice... more

I've stayed at the Thomas Edison Inn twice in 2009 while in the area on business. To stay here is to step back in time -- back to the 1980s, when it seems that the hotel was last updated. You may or may not find this charming, but be prepared for old furniture and outdated styles. If that doesn't bother... more

My husband and I attended a wedding at this location and stayed the night. We had a room with a beautiful view of the lake. The rooms were clean, but the furniture needed some replacing. The queen bed was very uncomforatable. Just by looking at the bed when we walked in the room, we could see a bit of a... more

The Inn turned out to be above our expectations. We booked our room by phone the night before we arrived at Port Huron and, having read some of the critical comments in the reviews regarding the uncleanliness of the rooms, we specifically mentioned this as a concern during the reservation call. We were promised a nice, clean, room and this... more

Having lived in Port Huron when the Edison Inn opened years ago, I wondered if it would be the same as I remembered it. After spending a weekend there I can say it has really aged. The decor is dark and old. A bucket catching water from the ceiling in the dinning room was sorry along with the banged up... more

After reading about this property, I was a bit concerned about what would be getting into. However, we found the property to be quite charming and a nice location on the river. There is a nice pool and fitness center. This would be a great place to host a Halloween party or masquerade ball, with the antiques, river views, and... more

We were out for our monthly dinner with freind and we have been to the TEI before like 3 years ago and decided to go back. Things seemed to be going well with dinner through the salad portion but then came dinner, it tasted fine but then in the middle of the meal I ran into a portion of the... more

The hotel staff was excellent and the room was fine. The mattress was old and not as comfortable as I would have liked, but still ok. The restaurant was however, not good. The salads were old, the cucumbers were dried out and the lettuce brown. My husbands baked potatoe was brown on the inside and his vegetables overcooked. When he... more

Stayed overnight for a wedding, and couldn't believe the terrible state of the rooms. Dirty, broken furniture, holes in walls, ripped carpeting, and the beds were the worst, like sleeping on a piece of concrete. Good thing there was a lazy boy chair in room, as I had to sleep in that, and even it was broken down and sagging.... more

My wife and I have stayed here a dozen times over a dozen years, but not in 2 years because we found it going to seed a couple years ago. We gave it another chance, but wish we hadn't. The staff were young and inexperienced, and must be embarrassed at the general shabby conditions, including ancient Herculon and broken furniture;... more
