This boutique hotel is charming. It's in a quiet part of NOTL and yet close enough to walk to everything. We appreciated the complimentary glass of wine in the evening and the nice breakfast in the morning. The room was spacious and comfortable. We will definitely come back for another stay.

I was very impressed with Harbour House. The room was a nice size and clean and the staff was friendly and polite. The free breakfast was fabulous with a variety of foods - all of which were very good and staff were very attentive. I also liked that it was in an area a few blocks from the main streets so it was quiet and close to the lake. I will definitely stay there again.
