Great location
Great staff, excellent in house restaurant-actually 2 restaurants, convenient to train station and ship terminal. Hotel has only 14 rooms with a very attentive staff
Verified Expedia guest review

8/10 Very good

Firstly, Harwich as a location surpassed my expectations. My preconception was of a large international port, and as such, I was wary, but as we had been to Milsoms in Dedham previously, i knew that the hotel would be lovely. But old Harwich is quaint and we had a lovely time on the pier and wandering along the seafront. The Electric Palace cinema is a must visit and I would also recommend the Redoubt Fort. As for the hotel itself, it certainly follows the Milsom style and quality. The room was very comfortable, the shower was excellent and the staff were very polite and helpful. We enjoyed a few drinks in the ha'penny bistro and bar, which had a lovely atmosphere and great decor. Dinner here was very good. On Sunday we had an early dinner at the Harbourside restaurant which was lovely, but the room didn't have the wow factor that I was expecting. Generally, the hotel and restaurant were slightly tired looking and could do with a lick of paint, but this is being picky. Comparison with Milsoms Dedham was inevitable, and The Pier didn't quite match up, but we would still happily return to The Pier.

A real hotel of personality.
First rate. The staff were courteous, efficient and friendly, the room most satisfact5ory and the food very good, The Pier is, perhaps, a little overpriced, but I'd happily stay there again.

Like an "island" in the city of Harwich...
We stayed in Harwich for one night on our way to North Norfolk. The weather was horrible on the day we arrived so the whole city looked quite grim...apart from the Hotel. The hotel is like a beautiful island located next to the harbour. We were staying not in the main building, but in a small house nearby also belonging to the hotel. We enjoyed the maritime atmosphere created in the rooms along with very nice facilities and staff. The view could have been better: although we were supposed to have sea view, all we could see was the little bit of sea behind a big number of noisy machines. The hotel has a nice restaurant (perhaps the best in the city, but don't take burgers) with a good selection for both dinner and breakfast.

The Pier
The only negative was we were on the third floor and there are no elevators. The staff were very helpful and did take all the luggage up and down. My mom who is 82 found the climbing of the stair is a little much

Hotel con mucho encanto.
Muy recomendable. Me volvería a alojar en el. Lo peor el enclave, si no tuviera tan cerca el muelle de carga sería de matrícula de honor. Un hotel con mucho encanto. Sólo estuvimos por una noche para coger al día siguiente un crucero, pero me hubiera quedado más días.

部屋が綺麗で満足です
部屋は綺麗できちんとしてて、広さも一人ならスーツケースを開いても苦にならない。Wifiも問題なし。朝ごはんがセットのプランでしたがパン、フルーツ、シリアル、飲み物程度。温かい食べものが欲しければ別途支払う必要があります
