Originally erected in 1894 as the private residence of John Hunt, an engineer with the Manistique Railway, the Superior Hotel (previously called Hotel Pippin) has been a visionary staple in Grand Marais for over 125 years. The Superior Hotel has been owned and operated by the same family since the 1930's and continues to be a great place to stay central to Grand Marais, Michigan. A local icon of love & gathering, good-times, warm shelter, and a touch of Grand Marais magic, the Superior Hotel gives visitors a chance to slow down and enjoy all the things that Michigan's beautiful Upper Peninsula has to offer.
