The Luther is a fantastic hotel. A very historic lodge. Right actross from the bay playground and fishing pier. The hotel is undergoing renovations which are time consuming as they have to be done in keeping with The Luther's historical heritage. Be sure to read the letters from President Johnson while you are there. We will be going back for... More

This hotel is such a great escape from the big city chaos. If you appreciate history and the simple things in life, you will enjoy this hotel. The beautiful front porch area is very inviting as is the front lobby/sitting area. The kitchen area is full of old pictures, books, and photo albums which contain the history of the hotel.... More

Great prices for such a beautiful old hotel. It's not new. It's not updated, but that's not why you go to the Luther. It's historical and you can stand in the same spot as Rita Hayworth and several U.S. Presidents :) Our trip was made even better by the owner, who knows the history of the place by heart. Be... More

If you're into unique experiences, you definitely should try a night or two at the Luthor. Don't expect splendor, but you're on the ocean, have a semi private pier, and clean rooms right out of I Love Lucy. If you can, go ahead and splurge for one of the main suites. Probably still under $100, and you'll have a view... More

My husband and I have stayed at the Luther three times in the past two years. We stay there only because there is ample parking for our boat and trailer and the boat ramp into the bay is less than half a mile away. The hotel is charming in a frightful sort of way. During a summer stay (on the... More

In the day, Rita Hayworth was a guest at this hotel. President LBJ and other presidents as well have been guests there. The history of this place, in my opinion, is noteworthy. I have stayed there twice over the last 10 years for high school reunions, and fell in love with the Luther Hotel. 10 years ago. I am looking... More
