My husband and I stayed here 3 nights in May. The room was booked at 79.00 per night and was worth every penny. Staff was very friendly and efficient at check-in. Our king size room was immaculate and I am extremely picky. We were on the top floor facing the parking lot. There was a train that came past during... More

I booked this hotel for a business trip to the Baxter, MN area after reading the reviews. Why hasn't anyone mentioned the trains that go through regularly blowing their horn? I guess I just like to have little notice about things like that...I booked a queen with a balcony view. It was nice enough, clean, large room even had a... More

We stayed for two nights. We were in town for a ESS Field Trial. I don't have a bad thing to say about this hotel. The price was very reasonable. It was clean, the staff was very nice. The room was big, the linens and towels were clean. The Hot breakfast was great. There are a lot of choices for... More

Took my wife here and got a jacuzzi suite on Friday night. The room was huge and the jacuzzi area was as well. Very spacious and clean pool area. Great breakfast in the morning. We both definitely enjoyed it.

When I booked my room online for $79 I wasnt expecting much, but was pleasantly surprised at the extremely efficient check-in (under five minutes), very quiet location, very clean room, and nice bed and pillows similar to what you'd get at a fancier hotel. Shampoo etc from Bed, Bath and Beynd. With a pool, and a nice breakfast for free... More

We booked a queen suite with a balcony on September 4 and 5. The hotel was very clean and quiet with low rates. The staff were very friendly. The hotel has easy access to Hwy 210 and 371 and a short drive to the Paul Bunyan trail. If we are ever in the area again, we would definitely stay again.

I stayed here with my wife and two small children for four nights and it was great. The cost very low and much better than my friends staying at a big resort on Gull Lake. Breakfast is good and has a nice variety of foods and they have pizzas for sale for $6 (at night). The pool was great and... More

We came upon this hotel accidently and decided to stay at it after a long night of driving. The lobby is very nice, almost chalet like and the rooms were large and clean. The location was convenient to both the highway and the shopping area as well as restaurants. My kids loved the pool as well.

We have an upcoming trip planned to this area and because of the several great reviews we wanted to give this place a chance. After several attempts to book with Hawthorn Suites, I was finally informed that they no longer own this property. Through further investigation, found the new owners to be Crossings by Grandstay. I will post a new... More

We had a wonderful experience at the Hawthorn. Expectations were low as we frequently are disappointed. The service was great from the start when we made the reservation. When we checked in the gal behind the desk was very friendly and gave us all the information we asked for with total professionalism. The main lobby was beautiful. Our room was... More
