Classy modern motel

Modern motel with a touch of class that is incredibly clean, comfortable and warm. Communication was great and it was easy to arrange a late check in and early check out. Wish we could've stayed longer, and will definitely stay again when we're in the area! Any motel looking to refurb should look at Hara Hotel as a beautiful example of what can be done!

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The only thing I was unhappy with were the pillows, they were very high and no low pillows anywhere to use. I had a sore neck in the morning after sleeping with a towel folded under my head. I did suggest to reception that they have at least 1 low pillow in the wardrobe. I also would have liked a microwave to heat a wheat pack for a sore hip

5 star resort with convenience of a motel

Amazing gem - stayed overnight. Amazing room ( deluxe): quality and attention to every detail. Beautiful comfortable bed and pillows, perfect shower, immaculately clean, spacious, and tastefully decorated... To top it off - exquisite dinner at onsite restaurant, definitely on par with top-rated restaurants if not better. One regret - did not stay long enough to try the spa! Friendly and delightful break in a long trip. It is an enthusiastic review, - but we stayed in overpriced motels and this is not it!

Wow just that! Elegant, sophisticated, warm, peaceful and welcoming. Hara House is perfect in every way. Shannon was absolutely amazing and so warm and welcoming. The detail in every aspect of this luxurious accomodation is stunning. You can see how much thought and detail has been put into the style, feel, look and comfort. Also the food & service was amazing , we only had breakfast but can not wait to get back again and try the dinner menu. Thank you for making our stay a 10/10!

We had a relaxed 2 night stay. The staff were personable and friendly, especially the wait staff in the restaurant. The food was excellent and we loved course we tried. The rooms were clean and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We had a hit of tennis and used the free bikes which was a lot of fun. Thanks for having us!
