The Heritage Hotel is just another place to stay...nothing special. Ask for a room in the newer section...they may want to charge you more, but stand your ground. The rooms are comfrotable for the area. They aqre nothing special, but a clean bed to sleep in. Their rates are probably the best around for the accomodations. You can do better fi you want to spend more.

My mom and I stayed here one night at the end of May 2010. We really enjoyed it. There was a diesel leak in my place in Seward, so we had to find a place to stay, on the cheap, as it was an unexpected expense to find a hotel room under the circumstances, in the summer season. My mom was going on the ferry to Kodiak the next day, and we're glad we stumbled on this hotel. I stopped by the Best Western and they wanted something like $219 or $269 for the night. I picked up a Homer brochure and called around. The Ocean Shores wanted $99. The Pioneer Inn wanted $89. Being summer season, I called the Heritage Hotel, which my stepdad recommended, and I thought they quoted me $79. We asked to see the room, liked it, and when we said we'd take it, he said, $71.06. Bonus! The front desk gentlemen were very nice. I really liked the place. It's a little off, maybe a little quirky? But I like that. I either like a nice hotel with nice amenities, or something for a good price, that's a little different. It's a historical building and they have a glass display case showing a log book or something of when the hotel first opened. There is a shared kitchen, with a full size frig and stove, cupboards, with a door outside with views of the ocean. Our room was upstairs with a slight view of the ocean. There were two beds. A twin and a double. There was a rather small, old TV. It seemed like I liked the lamp shade and homemade curtains on the window. Something different and a nice touch. Everything worked and was adequate. No breakfast. But what I liked was that there were coffee cups with to-go lids in the lobby. Good to reduce spillage when you're driving. All in all an enjoyable experience. Oh yeah, good location, too, being on Pioneer Ave. right next to Alices.

Location is quite convenient being in the middle of town. Don't expect any views from your room. During our stay they offered one of the best prices compared to other hotels. Even though they use the term Lodge, it's a hotel. The rooms are not elaborate, but they were clean with a nice TV. Nice comfortable lobby. The receptionist made the stay worth it. Excellent customer service. She advised us on the good and not so good restaurants. She's a Homer local and knows the town well. Very helpful.

Our stay was very disappointing. To start the hotel was not exactly what you would expect for a $140 a night location. The bathroom was clean..ish though it was not that nice. The beds were not comfortable.
The biggest problem by far with this hotel is the paper thin walls. Every conversation, every sneeze, and every snore that occurs in neighboring rooms can be heard in yours and vice versa. Do not stay here if you would like a good night of sleep..
