About this business
Any account of the Harbor View's history must begin with Edgartown, its legendary birthplace. Settled in 1671, this early colony steadily came to be known as a prime port for whaling. And as that enterprise grew, so too did Edgartown, in both prominence and influence. In fact, by mid-1800, this bustling municipality had become the Vineyard's wealthiest. But as the whaling industry began to ebb, Edgartown officials turned their attention to a new source of prosperity: tourism. With ambitions of building the finest resort o... read more

Beautiful view of the harbor from the front porch! Well, the exterior of the hotel was very beautiful. The interior of the lobby was nice. Our room was nothing like the website. The room was old and dingy and had stains all over the carpet. Everything in the room was old. The view out our windows was nonexistent. There were overgrown bushes that covered both windows. There was no remote in our room when we arrived. We had to call the desk. The maid that cleaned our room did not restock the coffee items so that I could make c... read more
Our recent stay in Edgartown Pros: It is a beautiful location within an easy walk to the center of Edgartown. The staff was extremely friendly and eager to serve. Cons: I think the problems were driven by inadequate training. There was tremendous activity and new people for the start of the busy summer season Location: Edgartown is a beautiful, upscale island town. The biking is incredible as is the sightseeing. I think we caught the Harbor View at a bad time. When we arrived and went to our room we quickly learned upon ente... read more
As mentioned earlier, heating was on high, no cooling , we asked for a fan , took 3 hours to arrive. Had a dog as a meighbor wining until 11 pm until the owner came back, in the morning the same between 7:30 and 9 am. Service in the restaurant was poor.
Parking troubles Parking here in the winter is hazardous. They sent me out into the dark with no lights to walk the equivalent of two blocks after I found a space I wasn't sure was legit. The new manager is superb but the reality is that many of their staff members have almost no experience. It's a good hotel -- but don't be caught up in any Edgartown mystique, as the staff is untrained. Overall, the stay was "okay".
Pros: pretty area and setting Cons: an update in the rugs, rooms, bathrooms and halls Location: perfect location...nice walk into town We took our son, his wife and grandson there with us....we wanted to treat them but we were disappointed in the rooms. The area and setting was nice but the hall and rugs leading to the rooms and inside the rooms were stained badly needing an update. The baths looked like a child caulked around toilet and sink areas. There was lukewarm water and it never warmed up to hot after 20 mins. but di... read more
Less than clean for high end hotel for this room. Pros: The view and the location were excellent. The lobby staff was very helpful. Cons: Improve the cleanliness of the carpet and furniture. Have the housekeeping staff take inventory of the room on a daily basis and vacuum the carpet. Location: The hotel is ideally located in walking distance of the town. The sights are breathtaking- the town, architecture, lighthouse, harbor, restaurants Harbor view Hotel is a high end hotel in an excellent location at the end of the N. St.... read more
A complete let down. Pros: location Cons: Food. Poor management of staff. Location: wonderful location In brief the room that we were allocated was worn out, ground floor next to swimming pool and enterance door. The patio door was fillthy and very difficult to open. Dirty net curtains at the window. Bathroom was just clean enough, look behind the door cleaning staff! The restaurant was our greatest disapointment. Food was very poor. It would take a long time to list why, all I can say was that they cannot even get the break... read more
Disappointed I found most of the staff was not familiar with the hotel at all. I think this speaks to the fact that they were mostly college students and new to the property. When you asked a question, such as, how late is breakfast, they'd go through a chain of people to find out. This one stands out for me. There was a mini fridge in my room....empty. I called the concierge for 30 minutes. No answer. Finally front desk said it was because I wasn't in the main house. Then why the fridge? Subpar service for a big price. The ... read more
beautiful location but not view from room did not like the view from the room and not worth the money
