I called concerning availability, even after reading the poor reviews found here at Trip Advisor. The individual answering the phone was rather short, however giving her the benefit of the doubt and unaware of what was happening on the other end, I went continued. Abruptly she put me on hold. Crappy hold music by the way. Never came back, I... More

My husband and I stayed in a Harbor View room in the "off season". The prices were more reasonable than staying in downtown Saugatuck and had the same advantage to walk to bars and restaurants. The hotel as a whole is "older" but the room we stayed in was completely renovated! I have NEVER smelled a room that smelled so... More

Peaceful quiet retreat. We had a harbor view room, beautifully furnished and included mini fridge and microwave. Extremely clean too. Nearby --within walking distance are shops and restaurants, plus a movie theater. Small indoor pool and hot tub with adult only hours from 9-11pm. We went the weekend after Thanksgiving with another couple who had been before. The one minor... More

Wow...I have never been so underwhelmed....we went on what was supposed to be a romantic weekend and paid megabucks for a dumpy room with torn upholstery down to the foam rubber, a balcony the size of a postage stamp and rude workers who acted put out. I would NOT recommend this place to anyone. The lady at the front desk... More

My wife and I decided to stay in the Pomeroy building after talking to a co-worker. We actually enjoyed it quite well. It is small. Double bed in living room with a couch and small (but comfortable) recliner. There are no dressers for your clothes though. There are 3 small 2 drawer nightstands you could use. The bed was surprising... More

My husband and I were invited to attend a business retreat and the company had selected South Haven, MI as their resort destination and the Old Harbor Inn was the resort of choice. The village is very charming and the people are extremely friendly. However, thanks to Trip Advisor, I was kind of aware of what to expect upon arrival...the... More

Yes this hotel is expensive. Is the room worth that price? Not if you just look at the room itself. The fabric on the chairs were ripping, the bathroom wasn't very nice. But was the room worth it for the price AND the location. Absolutely. When I rented the room, I did it based on the reviews. I knew it... More

My husband and I wanted a room with a deck overlooking the river. I even specifically said that when I called for the reservation. What we got was a room with a step-out balcony, able to accommodate 2 chairs only if they faced each other. We couldn't even open both sides of the french doors leading to the balcony. We... More

We have been staying here off and on for many years but...the beds are just bad. The queen was higher in the middle and I could not find a position that was comfortable. The pull out bed on the couch had the material ripped and springs exposed. Their solution was to give us a roll-a-way bed because they were out... More
