I normally do not write a review unless something was really terrible or exceptionally good. In the Harbourfront Inn's case it is the latter, exceptionally good. I have stayed there on numerous occasions and have been completely satisfied as I was again last week. To the desk staff, management and attendants thank you for always making our stays enjoyable, Merry... more

Once a very confortable stop in my travels, the motel has slipped in the last few months. While the beds are very comfortable, TV's are great and staff is top notch, the rooms smel, A/C units are very dirty (you can see the clumps of dirt/dust embedded in them), and I was greeted in the bathroom by a roach! Hold... more

Management response from

I am very sorry to hear of your dissatisfaction with our hotel. The upkeep of 102 A/C's cannot be done by housekeepers on a daily basis, as it does involve removal and partial disassembly of the unit. As is with all major maintenance checks, it does become a scheduling issue through the maintenance department. The units were being dealt with...

Sayed in room 146 night of Jan.13, on business & found hotel to be clean, comfortable & well-situated. Staff were friendly & helpful. Room was clean & the bed was quite comfortable. Lots of hot water & the water pressure was very good. Free wireless internet, cable TV, hair dryer, iron & board are all available in the rooms. Did... more

I've stayed at the Harbourfront Inn for at least two nights every year for work since 1999. The Inn is wonderfully situated on the water, and the rooms are large, clean and tastefully decorated. The updates made about 4 years ago are beautiful, and the new mattresses are super comfy! The staff are the BEST, with the majority of the... more

This inn had great value - it was 90 cad dollars including tax and parking - very clean room, coffee maker, tv cable etc, located right on the waterfront - great to watch boats and people fishing etc, look at port huron michigan right accross the water! A simple breakfast available in a common room by reception in the morning... more

This wonderful, friendly place has become an annual tradition for me and my family since 1992. So I speak with some authority about this hotel and the staff. We make our visit during the Canada Day holiday every year and I can't tell you how wonderful both the location and the staff are. They are not only friendly, courteous, and... more

I've stayed at the Harbourfront Inn numerous times over the past 5 years and always keep coming back. It almost seems like a home away from home at this point. I would evaluate it as follows: Pros: - Interesting waterfront location. The nearby grain and maintenance docks for large ships may not be super trendy (this is no marina), but... more

Lovely clean rooms, quiet location, helpful staff. Willing to help with all sorts of golf reservations, places to eat(nearby), nearby is a lovely waterfront stroll with river on one side and lovely well kept gardens on the other side. Price is reasonable for the location and room. more

Once a year (sometimes more) for the past 15 years (perhaps more) I pass through Sarnia and the Harbourfront Inn is my place of choice to stay. Rooms have recently been renovated. They are larger than many motel rooms where I have paid a higher rate; the beds are comfortable, the TV and air conditioners work, and there is a... more
