“A nice place in Seward”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 August 2011
1
person found this review helpful

As other reviews have alluded too, this is really a basic, no thrills hotel. That being said, we found our room to be clean and the staff to be very friendly. We stayed in the hotel section on the 2nd floor which has outside entry doors. We had no issues accessing and using the wirless connection. The only negative was that the walls are thin and you tend to hear the people next door. The hotel picked us up from the train station and also dropped us off at the cruise ship the day we departed.

The location is in between the historic downtown area and the harbor front area. So a little bit of a walk either way. I don't know the exact distance or walking times. The free Seward shuttle bus has a stop at the corner near the hotel and made it very easy to get around Seward. (Check shuttle times as they vary depending if a cruise ship is in port or not) Also a $5 cab will get you about anywhere!

“Basic motel - OK for a place to sleep”

Not much to say about this place... it's a typical motel. It was clean & comfortable but just a place to sleep. A 10 minute walk to the harbor.

“Decent place, not a lot of thrills but good for the $”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 August 2011 via mobile

We had a hard time finding a place for our family of 5 on a last minute trip that was under 200. We were very happy with the Harborview, it was centrally located between downtown and harbor and the staff was very accomodating.

“Good as it gets in Seward”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 July 2011

We stayed there for about four nights. The room was clean but had a weird odor. We were fortunate in that we booked what I believe is the best room they have so it was much larger than the rest. One tip - there is no view of the harbor, but it is in a convenient location in the heart of Seward.

Room Tip: Room 10 is the largest - I think
