HarbourView Hotel

For the age of the property it is well presented. I took advantage of sitting on the veranda which was pleasant.

I understand that the accommodation is above a pub, and expected a certain amount of noise. However on both nights, after ten pm, it sounded as if very heavy furniture was being moved around for a good 15 min At 7am on the Sunday morning someone was going in and out of the rooms on my corridor, singing at the top of her voice...

Hi was g8 stay ..only problem is i payed $50 for my key and have not been refunded . Please refund i handed key back

Waiting to long for my refund

Location was fairly close to the city centre. We didn't have breakfast.

It would have been good to have dishwasher liquid as well as shampoo and a hair dryer available.

View, outdoor terrace, lounge and parking

Long way to the loo!

location was good, staff awesome helpful, as we had many motor bikes and they helped keep them secure, facility was good for our group,

outside noise was annoying as it went on until 2am in the morning, fights loud music etc. across the road, not the hotels fault just a bad night i guess.

Raglan is such a beautiful place and I love coming here for yearly waka ama regatta. The pub scene is cosy, food yum and locals very friendly

Very basic accommodation but price echoed this. Very clean and good shared bathroom facilities.

A bit noisy when other guests moving around late at night but not unexpected when staying an old hotel.

Excellent location, nice old worldly features , especially love the bar area old time feel

Great location, super friendly staff, easy to park on site. Lovely meal in the restaurant. Old world charm, very nice.

Location & communication with cleaner was excellent.

The room was not what we expected. we were not offered a room which was near what we booked.

this place was clean and comfortable. It's crazy that people give a property bad reviews for the nose outside the Hotel. Yes it is right DT so if that bothers you dont stay there, but the lotion and the fun vibe of he Hotel is so worth it. Bring ear plugs. I am in the "older" group of travelers, but had so much fun there and very much enjoyed the location, charming Hotel and fabulous location!! would stay there again for sure,

I had a very enjoyable stay have NO complaints, but yes bring ear plugs if the sound is an issue, but that has nothing to do with the HVH it was charming

I liked the location.

Bedside light was not working. No soap for handbasin. Very slow tap flow rate. No TV in room or guest lounge. As a women on my own I didn't feel safe sitting in the bar by myself for a drink, dinner or breakfast. It would be nice to have the option of a dining area set aside for guests. Getting a carpark took several tries as patrons were using it, not guests.

Staff excellent and friendly

Location

Noisy Band playing till late Bar noise Thought hotel had secure parking Booked twin room not bunk room

It was central

Ran out of toilet paper and hand wash in the ladies. Told staff and nothing was done about it.

Sie ist zentral gelegen, war sauber und für den Preis in Ordnung.

Wir hatten ein Zimmer, das nach hinten gelegen war und da hörten wir die Klimaanlage. Aber konnten trotzdem gut schlafen.

Location, great feel, great staff

A bit noisy.

Heritage

One bathroom between many rooms

Good location, ok parking at the rear for a motorcycle, but not secure.

I like staying in country pubs, have stayed in many over the years. When I arrived, I indicated I was staying the night. The response from the young "UK Backpacker?" was "you are are you?" Room 4 is very small, more like a cell, located at the corner of the building above a very noisy area until late at night. The sash window had no lock, so anyone could access the verandah. The shared men's bathroom had one shower, with mould and rotten wood. From the outside, I had higher expectations; obviously, accommodation wasn't a big earner, so little attention to detail. There was a room where you could access coffee, etc. Luckily, the one carton of almond milk, the only milk, had just enough for one drink! If you are leaving before 8am, you need to exit by the front door and walk around the block to the car park. There are fire stairs, signed not to be used. I did and found the back gate to the beer garden unlocked! You need to pay a $50 hold for the room key. I returned it to the box at the top of the stairs; hopefully, I will get the $50 back.

Location, staff, pub

No TV

The location

The facilities were below average . Grotty shower . No hooks or any where to put your stuff in the rooms . Absolutely bare minimum everything .

Location was amazing! really tidy... basic accommodation and at times a little noisy.

Location was excellent.

Minimal shower/toilet facilities - shared with little privacy - could make eye contact with people using the facilities, Grimy shower.

Le logement qui nous a été finalement attribué était tout à fait convenable mais excentré alors que nous pensions dormir à l'hôtel. Décevant car nous aurions aimé profiter du coeur de village au lieu de nous retrouver au rez-de-chaussée d'une maison dans un lotissement à 1,5 kms de l'hôtel.

On nous a demandé de faire notre réservation en ligne alors que nous étions dans l'hôtel. Une fois la réservation faite, on nous annonce que les WC et la salle de bains sont en commun et on nous présente une chambre microscopique avec un lit dans lequel je ne pouvais pas dormir vue ma taille.

Emplacement central. Bâtiment historique. Très bon restaurant interne. Charme désuet d’une bâtisse fin 19e. Expérience inoubliable et très abordable. Personnel adorable.

Soirée karaoke (le dimanche) sous ma fenêtre. Impossible de dormir jusqu’à minuit. Emplacement assez bruyant. Chambre spartiate, salle de bain antique.

The location was excellent

The room was very small and basic

The restaurant was great excellent food. Bar staff were great great sports bar and facilities

Bathroom facilities are below par. Need to be undated. Very unhygienic

It was very convenient and the staff were excellent

The air conditioning unit was right outside our room and it was going on and off all night

Balcony view

Tap beer was off- line. No towels in our room. No soap in the shower. No handbasin in the toilet. 1 shower for all males. Reception initially tried to send us up the road to other accommodation despite having our prior receipt for payment. No apology. No-one at reception to offer assistance. 😞

Great building in centre of the town. Very lovely staff. Comfortable bed. Good shower. Extra facilities of tea, coffee in a lounge/ veranda a nice touch.

Window needed to be propped open.

Central, buzzing atmosphere. Good food.

Great location and beautiful old building. We had an event booked elsewhere but the live music sounded lovely. Clean sheets and room.

The facilities needed a deep clean. Super loud at midnight when i assume the bar closed. Low value for price paid

The location was in the City Center, which was the perfect place to step outside your accommodation and explore the area. I appreciated the ability to do a late check-in as I was traveling NZ for the first time and often times was caught in the moment and arrived to Harbor View Hotel later than expected. The staff were all warm, sincere, and easy to talk to and ask questions.

There wasn't anything I could say I didn't like about my stay at the Harbor View Hotel. It was delightful and for such a good deal. I was concerned about the bar being downstairs and my stay being on a Friday night, but that wasn't an issue.

Old world

😸

Établissement sympa par sa configuration rétro . Jolie bâtisse . Le pub en dessous très sympa . Les plats servis délicieux . Le balcon vue sur la rue principale agréable pour boire un verre . Le bruit pas vraiment dérangeant car tout se calme vers 23h .

Pour les chambres , il faudrait les rafraîchir un peu , miroirs , étagères , cintres ds les armoires et veiller à l état au moment de l enregistrement ( pour nous les draps n avaient pas été changés!) . Veiller aussi à la propreté dans les parties communes .

Pretty Balcony

Respect is a two way street. We arrived after travelling the entire day by bus and were ignored (by one of the staff - 3 working) in the queue- same queue for restaurant and hotel check in - because ‘it takes a while’, as I was told after saying something. The actual check in, 25 to 30 minutes later, only took about a minute or two. The base from the music playing in the restaurant is quite loud in the room, you can feel it on the bed. The bedsheets were stained, I dropped some bobby pins and checked under the bed which was vile. Shower was dirty.

Didnt have it

Not applicable

It was close to the township.

It was very noisey untill midnight, our window wouldn’t close. It was quite pricey for what we had. Not very big rooms.

Right in town

Wifi not working properly, no cups for an early morning coffee ,no soap in dispenser, missing lightbulb; lack of sugar,milk, rubbish still full when we left, no remote for tv, and they charged us an extra 50 dollars in case we damaged anything,lucky I thought of doing a video before we moved in, and I’m still waiting for my 50 dollars to come back to me

The hotel has everything you need . Comfy beds , great staff and Towbars and food served in both. Had an excellent stay for 3 nights

Location was very good and central so it was easy to walk around.

Parking is limited. Only 2 toilets and 1 shower per gender. We were given a triple room instead of double as we had booked - made the stay a bit uncomfortable and when asking staff for a different room they were very unhelpful. You have to pay a $50 bond for the key. The rooms are very hot and sticky as there is no fan or AC.

Clean, staff were friendly

Rooms too small, not enough carparks and we had to share showers and toilet

l’emplacement

la propreté des sanitaires

Great central location nice rooms friendly staff

Location was perfect for exploring Raglan town. It was cool being in a historic hotel.

It was as advertised as expected = it's a historic hotel with shared bathroom facilities- there is always some level of inconvenience when the bathroom is outside the room but the hotel was quiet and we felt we had the facilities to ourself despite their being other there.

Old fashioned style of classic hotel

Location was beautiful

The location itself is perfect. Right on Main Street. Call it a backpackers and it would have been fine. And we wouldn’t have booked.

The first thing we got told is to mind the noise and to respect other guests. Which I was happy with because we’re traveling with two kids so I was hopeful we would be able to get a good night rest… but unfortunately it wasn’t a silent night at all. It’s very noisy which makes sense above a bar, but definitely don’t stay here with kids. Other than that it was very very messy and dirty. The communal area looked like it hadn’t been cleaned for weeks. There was no toiletpapier, and the toilet itself and shower were so dirty our kids rather went at a public toilet. The other thing was the messy check in. With unfriendly staff and chaos all over. This might be because they try to combine running the bar and the reception at the same time. But it wasn’t a nice experience after a long long drive for us. We were looking forward coming back to Raglan but this wasn’t up to standard at all. We decided to check out after one night and stay somewhere else. There was no refund but at least we got a good nights sleep and a clean stay.

There food 10/10. Loved the location.. Bedding was comfy.

Just the access to the room. Having to walk through the sports bar and restaurant to get up stairs, from the back door. Not much parking available.

La posizione

È piuttosto rumorosa a causa del pub sottostante

Great location, friendly staff, lively venue

I hadn’t noticed the shared bathroom facilities, however they were clean & lots of towels provided - it wasn’t an inconvenience

only one restroom for ladies at second floor...

Pas propre et très bruyant

Emplacement en centre ville à proximité de tous les commerces, activités et restaurants L'établissement à une histoire qui est très bien préservée
