The Hotel Breakers, built in 1905, is a large historic Lake Erie resort hotel located at 1 Cedar Point Drive in the Cedar Point amusement park in Sandusky, Ohio.

It was designated a U.S. National Historic Landmark in 1987 but was altered significantly in 1999 with the demolition of several historic wings.[3] After the demolition the hotel was de-designated, having been delisted on August 7, 2001.[2]

The hotel sits on the one mile beach mentioned on Cedar Point's web page.[4] There are roughly 650 rooms or suites with a small portion with a Peanuts comic theme.[4] The hotel has two outdoor pools and one indoor pool, each with a hot tub nearby. The hotel contains gift shops and several restaurants including T.G.I. Friday's and Perkins Restaurant.
