Top hotels in Cathedral District
Bavarian Inn of Frankenmuth
The hotel room was clean but a little dated. The new water park is lovely. There is a wide variety of slides for different ages and levels of thrill. The adult’s only hot tub and swim up bar were nice and secluded away from the noise of the rest of the park.

Comfort Inn Birch Run - Frankenmuth
The breakfast was average. I always like a pot of oatmeal instead of packets. Only one yogurt and it was strawberry which I can’t have. No bananas. Starbucks was close by so not a big deal. The room was clean. The pillows and sheets were comfy.
