About the Hotel
Best Western Plus Traverse City: Dual-level loft rooms and Traverse City's deepest indoor heated pool
Amenities & Dining
The hotel offers a heated indoor swimming pool that reaches 11 feet in depth, making it the deepest such pool in Traverse City. A complimentary full hot breakfast is served daily, featuring options like scrambled eggs, sausage, waffles with toppings, cherry sourdough bread, and plant-based sausage. Evening snacks include fresh-baked chocolate chip cookies, available on a first-come basis.
Room & Accommodations
Select guest rooms feature a dual-level loft layout with a staircase, giving children their own upstairs sleeping space while adults stay below. All rooms include a 42-inch LCD TV, microwave, and mini-refrigerator. Newly renovated bathrooms come with walk-in showers and high-quality fixtures, though some rooms use a half-glass shower wall.
Location & Business Services
The hotel sits less than a 5-minute walk from Northwestern Michigan College and less than a mile from two Lake Michigan beaches. A free shuttle service runs to Cherry Capital Airport with extended hours, and a separate downtown shuttle helps guests avoid parking fees. A 24-hour front desk, business center, and fax/photocopying services are available for business travelers.
Family & Pet-Friendly
Families can request loft suites that provide separate upstairs space for children, and sofa beds are available in king suites for extra sleeping capacity. Pets are welcome, and the hotel provides designated walking areas off the main road. Complimentary items such as deodorant and toothpaste are offered at the front desk for guests who forget essentials.
