My family and I were looking for special place to stay in Barrie -somewhere that would be convenient to the harbour, with a unique surrounding and preferably not a run-of-the-mill franchise hotel experience. Not easy when you have two girls in their pre-teens! Harbourview Inn was THE PLACE! We hadn't heart of it before, but I'm sure it's not going... More

We stayed in the CH Ross Suite at a price of $179 plus tax but we felt this hotel did not offer value for money. Whilst the hotel is very well located for downtown Barrie and the staff could not have been more helpful the room itself let the whole experience down. We appreciate that the hotel is billed as...

We stayed one night at the Harbour View Inn in Barrie earlier this month. The front desk young woman was friendly and helpful (even helped us carry luggage up to our second floor room; only an elevator would have made things better, but that wouldn't really fit the character of the house). The room itself was very pretty with the... More

We stayed for two nights in the penthouse suite. This is a lovely Victorian style house renovated into an inn. It is decorated with Victorian furniture with all the modern convieniences. The staff are amazing. They are very friendly and helpful. This Inn provides a homey atmosphere. It is very quiet. No kids running around making lots of noise. Highly... More

A great place to stay - excellent location, walking distance to everything, water, trails, restaurants and super clean, our room was absolutely spotless. We did not want to stay at the typical big chain hotel and are glad we found this unique spot. Staff was extremely helpful too. We would definitely stay again.

I've been staying here on and off for the last 4 months when I have visited the Barrie Area . It's right downtown, easy to get to restaurants, and pubs, and a nice departure from the generic rooms in the normal hotels. Staff has always been cheerful and accommodating.

I spent some time at the Harborview Hotel in downtown Barrie in February 2008. I enjoyed my stay at the Harborview. The decor and furniture inside my room looked brand new. I was by myself and I was given a queen-sized bed, which gave me ample room to sleep in. When I was there, I was able to sleep peacefully... More

I got married Aug 23rd, 2008. The weekend prior to our wedding, a few of my closest girlfriends had surprised me with a night out on the town and a stay at the Harbour View Inn. I was quite impressed with the overall look of the hotel as well as the location. I followed the girls to the Penthouse Suite... More

Although the property is nice, it is extremely overpriced for the quality of service and the ammenities. Staff are more interested in taking phone calls than showing guests to their rooms. One staff member seems to run the entire operation. Breakfast, which is included in the room rate consisted of one plate with two muffins and a bit of cantelope,... More
