The hype
Guests love the walkability and friendly staff but consistently note the rooms feel dated and overpriced for what you get.
The Harborfront Inn
$180-450 / nótt
Pantaðu þetta ef You want to ditch the car and stumble home from Greenport's best oyster bars and breweries.
Af hverju fólk elskar þetta
- Unbeatable location right on Front Street
- Access to the private beach and pool at sister property Sound View
- Spacious rooms with private balconies
Stutt samantekt: A perfectly located village crash pad that relies heavily on its address to justify the price tag and aging carpets.
Farið yfir af @lifeonpoints: I stayed here for a quick weekend reset and it hit the spot. The room felt super spacious, and having my morning coffee on the balcony while watching the boats leave the harbor was the highlight. It's a solid choice if you want to be right near the water in Greenport.

Reality check
The 'continental breakfast' is often described as underwhelming (bagels, yogurt, boiled eggs) and not worth waking up early for.
- You prioritize walking to dinner over modern interior design
- You want a pool but don't need a full resort experience on-site
- You are traveling by train/Jitney and don't have a car

- Bathroom hygiene: Generally clean, but look out for mildew in the grout of older tile work.

- Linens & towels: High quality (Frette), usually crisp and clean.
- Odors & scents: Frequent reports of a 'musty' or 'damp' smell, common in older waterfront properties with carpet.

“I'd love a top-floor room facing the harbor, as far from the elevator as possible. If a quiet room is available away from the street noise, that would be my priority.”

Skip the hotel breakfast and walk 3 minutes to Crazy Beans for a real diner breakfast.

Use the complimentary bikes to ride to the Custer Institute and Observatory on Saturday nights for stargazing.

💡The 'Destination Fee' adds up to ~$50/night in summer when combined with the resort fee.
💡The carpets in the hallways and some rooms have a distinct 'old seaside hotel' musty smell.
💡The AC units are the old-school wall/window style in many rooms and kick on with a roar.
💡You can hear your neighbors' conversations through the walls — soundproofing is minimal.
💡The 'Harbor View' often includes a view of the parking lot and ferry line, not just open water.
