Harbor House Hotel
Welcome to Harbor House
Welcome — we're glad you're here. This is everything guests come down to the desk to ask, so you don't have to. Wi-Fi, breakfast, parking and check-out are at the top. Below that are the places we actually send people, which is not the same list as the map in your room. If something isn't here, dial 0. Someone's on the desk until eleven, and after that the night porter will find us. — Nadia
The things everyone asks
Wi-Fi, breakfast, parking and check-out, in that order.
Wi-Fi
One network for the whole building, including the courtyard.
Breakfast
In the Glasshouse, off the lobby. A proper cooked breakfast, not a tray of pastries.
Come before 8.15 or after 9.30 — the middle hour is the only time there's ever a wait.
Parking
The car park is ours, but the entrance is easy to miss — it's the gap between the bakery and the chandlery.
Check-out
In the building
The roof terrace
Open to guests, no booking. It's the best thing about this hotel and almost nobody finds it.
Sunset is over the water from the north end, not the side everyone sits on.
Bikes
Six of them, free, first come. They're heavy and they're perfect for the towpath.
Where we actually send people
Not the tourist map in your room. These are ours, and all within a walk.
The Lantern Room
Eight tables, one sitting a night. This is where we send people celebrating something.
Ivo Marchetti — Owner
Pell & Daughter
Coffee. They open at six for the fishermen, which makes it the only thing open when you're awake at five and shouldn't be.
Marta Pell — Owner
The towpath, going north
Forty minutes out, forty back, flat the whole way. Take one of the bikes.
