Awesome weekend getaway

Place was amazing. Very well decorated and comfy and the bathroom amazing! The rooftop bar was excellent and right across from our room. Glad we got to celebrate you’re 1 year Anniversary, that was a nice surprise. Communication was excellent. Thank you again! Definitely will come back and stay here.

Clean and updated room

I really enjoyed the 4 days I spent at Nordic Harbor and was impressed by how well thought out everything was. The space was utilized really well and I was really happy overall with how clean and organized the room was. There are limited lodging accomodations in Center City and this seemed like by far the best option out of everything I looked at which was definitley confirmed by my classmates who were all in town for our graduate residency and had not-so-great experiences at the local motels. The market was adorable and there was really everything you could need there. Would highly recommend!

Great Weekend Getaway

We had a very relaxing stay. The room/property was perfect for a rejuvenating getaway. Very clean, easy check-in/check-out, and the onsite market is a great add-on. Unfortunately, the weather was not conducive for us to enjoy the rooftop patio, but we are excited to go back in the summer or fall to enjoy that amenity. It looks wonderful!Very easy to access all local activities and towns.Highly recommend.

A fun stay!

We had a great stay. Nordic Harbor is a very charming, clean and comfortable boutique hotel! We really enjoyed the patio out back of our room and the rooftop bar overlooking the lake with live music out front of the hotel. We will be back and bring our boat next time!

The renovation work and the feel of the property was amazing! I felt like I was in a hotel in Europe with the attention to the small details and the modern and efficient feel. There were multiple dining options across the street (walkable), and the lake view and patio space were really nice. Can't really think of anything negative to say! (Be warned that the space is small, so if you like to spread out this might not be for you... that being said the use of the space was amazing!)
