Of all of the hotels I stayed at during my journey, this was one of my favorites! Although the traffic can make it a little challenging to get in and out of the hotel, the experience I had was great! The room was beautifully maintained, with great lighting, comfortable bed, and a fantastic bathroom! The room (and the hotel) felt modern and was well-styled. Breakfast was great, with several options available, self-serve style. The location is great, as it’s close (walking distance) to several restaurants, parks, and shopping centers! If you bring a car, parking will be a bit tight (be ready to test your parking skills!). 🤭 I would definitely stay here again!

Guest reviews
Harbour Hotel averages 4.4 out of 5 across 1,259 reviews. A selection, quoted as written:
This was a last minute booking, and we are so glad our family stayed here. The rooms, location, service, and food were all amazing. Matteo was at the reception and set the tone for our enjoyable stay. He was very welcoming and efficient. Breakfast had great hot and cold options. Lana-May, Sean and Vicky made our breakfast experience more amazing. They were very attentive and pleasant. Thank you all.
We had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The location was perfect, right in the heart of downtown, close to everything we wanted to explore on foot, yet tucked away near the harbour for a peaceful night’s sleep. The hotel was very clean and well-maintained throughout. Our king-size room was spotless but quite small, with no view to speak of. It did have a fridge and a safe, which was handy, and the staff thoughtfully provided an extra key card so we could keep the power on and the room cool while we were out. Breakfast each morning was a generous buffet with plenty of variety to suit all tastes. Overall, a great balance of comfort, convenience, and hospitality!
