Harborview Inn

We stayed here for a couple nights and it was good. Frankly, most of the rooms do not have a view of the harbor due to other buildings that have been built in the way, but it wasn't a big deal to us. Coffee is provided, but no food. The room had a bit of a strange odor, but we didn't notice it after a while and the room appeared clean. We loved the location. We walked to our boat tour and a restaurant for dinner. This place has its own parking lot so that was great, and the front desk lady was nice at check in. It looks like the outside was recently updated.

Location is great for price. Surprisingly quiet rooms and location. Actually had a microwave, which is a low bar but some places in Seward don't have. Based on mailmen, they do update appliances. They have outlets that work. Their remotes work. There lighting could be brighter and the toilets could be higher, but everything else makes sense. I liked there was windows on two different walls. No glaring problems or complaints. Other occupants were not heard during our stay, even whilst on the first floor.

Cute hotel and was appropriate for the price. Seward is a quirky little town and the hotel/motels are too. It was super clean, had everything you would want or need. There is NO VIEW, it sits about 2 blocks off of ocean, but it is close to the harbor, within walking distance. The staff was great and very helpful.

Super retro rooms straight out of the mid-80s, but clean and comfortable and a good location and value. You’re not in Seward to stay in your hotel room! Front desk was also very friendly and helpful, and you get daily housekeeping. Our bathroom didn’t have shampoo, conditioner or tissues so be prepared for that. Definitely would stay here again.

My husband and I stayed at the Harborview Inn in Seward in late July. We waited too long to book our accommodations but luckily Harborview Inn had availability.||First, the good… The hotel room rates were more reasonable than others. It offers free parking and the location can’t be beat. Mary, the hotel manager, is fantastic and very personable. The rooms are clean and housekeeping did a great job each day.||Now the bad… The bed was horrible! We were booked for a Queen bed but what we really slept on was a double. The springs in the bed were worn out so it was uncomfortable. The small pillows were just as horrible as the mattress. If that wasn’t bad enough, the walls were so thin that we could hear our neighbors all night long. Not sure if it was their TV but we heard them all night long. I had to turn on my white noise app on my phone just to fall asleep. So, if sleep is very important to you, you might want to choose another hotel.||A note to the owner: Time to refresh your mattresses and bedding and invest in soundproofing your rooms. Mary makes up for what it lacks.

Had a fantastic stay here during our trip to Seward. Mary was super helpful when our excursion got cancelled and we needed to stay extra days. The location is great, walkable to both downtown and the harbor. Would definitely recommend checking out Woody's Thai across the street if you stay here!

Staff was very friendly, room was adequate, location is convenient. Mattress & bedding could use an update, but was never uncomfortable. Opening window was essential to getting some air circulation, but then we had to contend with trying to sleep with midnight sun. Still, just a minor inconvenience. My biggest suggestion is adding pillows. We each had one pillow the size of a postage stamp LOL. I guess we probably could have asked housekeeping for extras.

Great location. Check-in went smoothly. Front office is very friendly & helpful. We had room #36 upstairs corner unit with 3 windows, fridge & microwave. I was able to open 2 of the windows during the day to enjoy the breeze. The room & bathroom were very clean. Bed was comfortable but could use some updating. The Inn is a short distance away from the busy marina in a quiet location. Very peaceful & quiet at night. We stayed 2 nights. I would stay here again.
