Lobby of the Hotel Holland
The Holland Hotel stood at 501-503 W. Superior St., where the Radisson Hotel Duluth-Harborview operates today.
Marketed as “the only fire proof hotel” in Duluth, it included the Holland Cafe, “famous for its service, soda fountain, light luncheons and grill room.”
The Holland opened in 1910 and closed in 1961. The Radisson was built in 1970.
Note the difference between the postcards below. The one on the left shows the Holland as it was originally built. The postcard on the right depicts how the hotel looked after four additional stories were added.
My folks probably took us to the Holland to eat at some point before it closed. I have a very vague memory of it. Nice image of the lobby, though.
