Beautiful property right downtown. The room was well decorated and the bed was comfortable. Unfortunately, the hot water was only lukewarm and when our room wasn't cleaned, they informed us that we had to request the day before.

The property and staff were great. Only issue was the heater didn't work and it was freezing. The front desk didn't have a space heater or solution. So I had to sleep each night being fully dressed

The television in the room did not function. The front desk offered to reimburse me $50 for the inconvenience, as they could not repair it and there was no other room available.

Always a perfect stay.
We had a very pleasant although brief stay and everything as always was perfect. The rooms are clean and comfortable. Please note the location is great and close to the ferry. However, what are described as harbor view rooms, really arent much of a view. You get a peek through buildings. Regardless, the staff are very friendly, a nice bar/restaurant, rooms are clean and a neat vibe to the building. We have stayed before and will be back again.

Refurbished older hotel in the historic district, walking distance to the whaling museum, waterfront and more. Contemporary décor with a spacious lobby and bar, all at a reasonable rate. On the downside, the hotel is understaffed, the continental breakfast and coffee aren’t available until after 6:30 am. And during our three day stay, our room was not cleaned. No clean sheets, no towel changes. I’m guessing this was an oversight, not a hotel policy.,

My third time here and probably the best. The city appears to have finished the sidewalk and street upgrades and looks much better. There are several dining options in the area which is very walkable. There’s plenty of whaling history in this old section of town. The hotel is a converted building but is very clean and not in your modern conventional style of hotel. There’s a bar on the ground floor with several tv’s. They do offer a limited free breakfast of coffee, pastries, cereal, juices, and bagels. This is an improvement that was lacking before. The staff is always friendly, welcoming, and accommodating.

Place is in a noisy area. Photos are deceiving. Staff unprofessional. The place is run down, dirty, ripped towels in bathroom. Not worth over the $200 I spent!!! Such a rip off, could not wait to get out of there.

The hotel is in downtown New Bedford, a short walk to the harbor. Our room was pleasant with a high ceiling and large windows. We had service issues with the hotel. Our first room didn't have much toilet paper and no extra roll. The TV was broken. We asked to switch rooms and were sent to an already occupied room. The third room was fine. The hotel bar was closed. I think the hotel had staffing issues the day we were there.

We had a very nice trip to New Bedford and this hotel was in a perfect location to downtown and the ferry to the islands. Hotel was very nice, beds large and soft, clean room. Nice staff even after an error with Expedia, and it all worked out. We recommend NB Harbor Hotel, have a nice stay in a cool city.
