Harrison Hot Springs

Stop 5 minutes for information, got a $100 parking ticket. 

Did not see signs on the street. We are not coming back to Harrison Hot Springs again. EVER! 

What the heck!!!!!! Not a tourist friendly town at all!

DO NOT COME TO HARRISON HOT SPRINGS!

Street parked for 5 minutes. Got a $100 Parking ticket.

Booked with low expectations ( for 93.00 a night I don't expect anything ' fancy ') I actually enjoyed our stay. We were overlooking the lake and close to everything.  It was clean and the bed was very comfortable ( more comfortable than the much more expensive harrison hot springs spa) 

Liked it

Staff was very friendly and helpful. The room was big but dated. It was clean. Beds were comfortable. There was a mini fridge and coffee maker in the room.

The only con was it was freezing in our room! There is 1 small baseboard heater against the wall under the windows and it can not keep up with heating the room. It was windy outside so air was blowing into the room thru the a/c unit. We had to bundle up in hats and sweaters and sit under blankets to stay warm. 

You get what you pay for

This was a last minute booking and our expectations were low. The hotel is nothing to write home about. The room had two beds and a shower. The bathroom was very dated. We actually slept better on these beds than the beds at the Harrison Hot Springs Resort. Room was like an oven when we first arrived as the air conditioning hadn’t been turned on. One of the bed side lamps wouldn’t work so we checked and it was unplugged. Then, we realized there wasn’t even an outlet for the lamp to plug into. Strange. But overall, we got what we expected.

Low expectations helps…

The bathroom especially was very outdated. Staff was friendly. Room felt clean and beds were good. Location great- directly across from lake and park. But, for the price, need to update, especially carpets and bathrooms!!

Clean room but outdated

Great location, view of the lake, walking distance to all local restaurants. Unfortunately their's was not open for early breakfast. Large bed, no heat in the hallway (not a problem in the summer!) blew the circuit boiling water with space heater going. Coffee, tea, hot chocolate provided. Desk guy civil, room cleaner friendly.

Basic

We arrived at Hot Spring Villa Hotel at about 3pm on August 16th and checked in at the front desk (which is also the restaurant bar).  We were given room 104, located at the back of the hotel.  

The room has one door which opens directly onto the rear parking lot, and a single window facing the same direction.  The room was small and dingy, with a tiny equally dingy bathroom.  The room seemed dirty - it was dark, it smelled musty (as though there were mold and/or mildew in the carpet or walls), and the bed was ancient with a very poor quality old mattress.

My partner and I were appalled, but we knew most hotels in town were booked up so we put our suitcases in the room and hoped to make the best of it.  While we were out for dinner, we became more and more unhappy with the thought of sleeping in that terrible room - my partner has asthma and a bad back, and we were worried that we would both get sick because of the poor air quality.  

We were luckily able to find a room at another hotel later that evening, so we didn't end up having to stay (whew!).  Hot Spring Villa Hotel refused to refund our money though, so it was an expensive weekend.

DO NOT STAY HERE!

We stayed over Christmas day. If you cant do stairs, don't go. Very quaint rooms. No bells no whistles BUT what they do have is heart. Arrived on xmas eve, restaurant was open till 8. Fabulous food, and it was even brought up to the room. Not expected.
All ementities are basic, room has mini ish fridge and kettle and coffee maker. Chocolates on the glasses was a nice touch. You are pretty much on your own but there is someone you can call, should you have an issue. Although no phones in the rooms. Had king size with view of lake. Patio, with 2 chairs and a little table. Had a little issue with our patio, so hopefully the patios will get checked before guests show up and check in to room. Stayed 3 days, room was quiet, we knew going in and Christmas time limited access to everything. Bed was so comfy. Tv nice sized. Clean rooms but from the 70's dont get me wrong, nothing wrong with the 70's I enjoyed them very much. Restaurant on ground floor fabulous food. Would definitely stay again, maybe try the summer

Retro

The moral of the story.....this owner needs to unclinch and do a full blown, 4 alarm, stud to stud, renovation.   Either that or demolition.  Pulled up to a crappy, decrepit parking lot, and parked next to a crappy, decrepit, RV on cinder blocks, with its motor guts hanging out.  Classy!  There is no front desk-you check in at the restaurant bar.  The entire hotel hasn’t seen an upgrade since it was built I’m sure.  The halls and rooms are very uninviting and uncomfortable.   Old slatted beds, (no box springs so super low), firm old mattresses.  Old bedding.  Ancient furniture.  Old yellow tub, toilet, sink with 70’s decor and those brown awful towels.  The only thing that reminded me I was in the 21st century was the flat screen tv (surprised it wasn’t a tube)...but it wasn’t even HD and a measly 24”!  Waaay to small for the room.  Old outdated Shaw cable box hooked up to a cheesy power cord.  The old style closet and room doors (hollow fake wood kind) were so thin, I thought people walking down the hall where coming right in to my room.  No staff there at night in case of emergency.  The room keys are actual keys still!   I haven’t stayed in a hotel that didn’t have key cards for like the last ten years.  The restaurant boasts “only the freshest local ingrediets” blah, blah,blah.  The food was terrible.  Totally plain Jane and processed and frozen food.  The Caesar salad was literally chunks of lettuce with some of those plain cheap white square croutons and s tiny bit of dressing.   No Parmesan cheese, no bacon, nothing to make it stand out.  No side of garlic bread, no lemon wedge.  The chicken wings were over cooked, and dry.  Totally store bought.  The breakfast sandwich was on some plain white Wonder bread.  Will never spend another night here.  The ONLY thing this place has is location, which I assume is the ONLY reason this owner is still in operation.

Soooooo old!!

Stayed here last weekend.  Long story short.  This place is really dated, but give it a chance.  The rooms are clean (we stayed in #202).  The view of the lake was spectacular.  I had several martinis on the balcony enjoying the view.  This is not a 4 star place but it is clean and the staff is very, very friendly.  We had take out from the restaurant, Salisbury steak and the bangers and mash.  It was ok and the portions were very generous.  We were in town for a wedding and the Harrison Hot Springs Resort and Spa was sold out so we booked a room here.  A big price difference and we'd come back here if we were only staying a day or two
