I cannot believe the negative review.. good thing we did not see it before booking here or we would have missed a terrific place to stay in HHS.... We booked for one night so as to play Sandpiper golf course twice....we had room 19 which had 2 queen beds as requested. It was almost like a 2 bedroom suite. Everything appeared new (carpet, drapes,shower/tub stall etc) or just repainted and clean as a whistle. We are a picky couple ( who have stayed in deluxe hotels in Paris and London) and could find nothing to complain about and much to praise given that this is a motel and at a decent price.
About 50 yards away there is a community hot springs pool ($6.75 for seniors and cheaper than Baden Baden!) and when we indicated we were going there to soothe our muscles apres golf , the sweet lady in charge of the motel kindly offered us extra hotel towels so we "would not have to go home with our personal ones wet" The next morning we had an early tee time 21 kms away and she personally came to our door at 615 am in her house coat to ensure we were up for breakfast at the Horn of Plenty Cafe which she had suggested and which turned out to be perfect at 7am.

We ate supper at the Black Forest restaurant and watched the sun go down over the Bay and the many hills. This was as good as Lake Geneva. Then we strolled to the Harrison Hot Springs Hotel and looked in at the famous Copper Room where there was live music and many couples dancing.

We made a vow to come back soon and stay in this motel and have Dinner and dance in the Copper Room which is a romantic thing to do on a visit to HHS.

Room 19 and the service and staff were excellent for us. Hope it suits you too.

Our family just returned from a reunion at Harrison Hot Springs where we stayed at the Harrison Village Motel. The place is an over-priced dump! There is a moldy musty smell throughout the building; one can’t help but wonder about asbestos!

While the view from the deck and the location to the beach were great, the rooms were pretty bad. The manager’s wife was quite accommodating, making sure we had what we needed and provided us with yummy warm raisin scones at 7:30 each morning. They were pet-friendly. Unfortunately, the managers are not the owners, and the owners are certainly not providing the resources to do much about the state of this motel:

• Our daughter and her family were in Unit #5 – it smelled terrible, they had to turn off the lights to use the microwave or it would flip the breaker. The manager came in to try and scour the bathtub so they could use it to bathe a baby and a 4-year old. The toaster did not work

• One party in our group had a family of 5 in Unit # 6. They were told it would have a full kitchen, but had only a small bar fridge and a coffee maker. The bathroom was pretty disgusting. The pool outside #6 was full of slime and grunge and likely hadn’t been used since 1950! Even though there was a half-assed attempt to cordon it off, it is a hazard to young children.

• Our room was supposed to have a microwave, but only had a bar fridge and coffee maker. The bathroom fan made a heck of a racket but did nothing to remove steam.

• One party in our group was a family of 7 and the a/c in the suite (#14) didn’t work and the temperature rose to 34C during the 4 days we were there. They had to take fans from the hallway to try to cool the rooms for sleeping.

• One party in the group had the “show suite”, however the windows were so covered in bird dung and cobwebs on the outside they couldn’t see the view. After complaining, the manager did do a bit of a window cleaning. Two burners on the stove didn’t work.

Despite the rotten accommodation, we had a lot of fun and many laughs. Our accommodation certainly left us with something to talk about for many years! Would any of us stay there again – NEVER!

The Harrison Village Motel is an ideal accommodation: clean, well-priced, and located on the “strip” directly across from the beach. The variety of rooms accommodates small or large groups and are fully equipped to provide a comfortable stay. The hospitable owners were wonderful and ensured that our stay was stress-free and enjoyable. As a large group they offered us ideal rooms and even allowed for special requests. This trip exceeded our expectations, and for that we would like to thank the Harrison Village Motel. I look forward to our stay next year.

We have visit Harrison Hot Springs many times and always stay at the Harrison Beach Hotel. A wonderful place to stay for a quiet get away from the city. Close to all things to see and do and our grandson also loves spending time here. The staff is very professional and a friendly welcome when we arrived, like visiting friends. Wonderful pool, very refreshing after a day exploring the area. Fine dining and intertesting shops in the area. Wonderful place to walk and play at the beach or walk around the Lagoon.
Never been disappointed, even if if rains sometimes while we are there. It's always an enjoyable place to visit, safe and clean.
