Such a lovely place to stay. The staff were kind and helpful. Step out the door and there was the choice of walking along the shops or walk around the harbor. Recommend staying here when going to Port Washington! Also, bring your fishing gear and charter a boat for a day of fishing!!

Excellent location, walking distance to resturaunts and shopping. Do not recommend the city side rooms, noisy street traffic and people walking right next to our window throughout the night. Was not easy to change to a different room for the second night.

The hotel is wonderful! I absolutely loved my water view room! My only negative was that the pool was pretty cold for me. Otherwise, I had a fantastic stay and am already looking forward to the next time!

Paramount Blues Assoc event stay

Great place to stay for the Paramount Blues Challenge event at the very new Inventor's Brewing/Edison Hall location only a block away-within walking distance along the marina. Beds in double bed room were more double bed width-probably not quite queen size. Just 4 blocks to the nice Mexican/American Tellos that serves good breakfast entrees..

I have stayed at this hotel several times through 3 ownership changes, and I would consider this one the best so far! The only takeaway was the fact that the dining/bar area was being remodeled during my stay. This didn't matter as there are plenty of eating spots within walking distance. The service was exceptional, I had to arrive a day earlier than expected and was able to be accommodated for 3 days in the same room...I was even upgraded to a lakefront view...!

We stay here when we visit family. It is clean. I personally love the beds. We had a view of the water. The other side doesn’t. It is on the water adjacent to a beautiful park and pier. There are shops and dining within asking distance. We love it here. The restaurant was under renovation but we have eaten there before and the food is excellent. Staff is very kind and helpful. We love it here and will stay again.
