We look forward to staying again next year.

The breakfast options were simple and good for a continental breakfast (biscuits and country gravy, eggs, pork sausage and turkey sausage, boiled eggs, yogurt, pancakes, cereal, oatmeal, and warm pastries. Coffee was very good. There is no store in the express hotel but there is a restaurant in the same property that you buy and get food and alcohol beverages. The front desk associates were kind and helpful. The swimming pool was open and available for use. Love the patio area to get some fresh air flowing through the room.

I showed the front desk staff my receipt from the restaurant to explain why I was there, but the lady at the front desk was incredibly rude. She interrupted me while I was talking with my kids on my phone and asked me to leave. Later, after the restaurant closed, I approached her again, showed her my receipt, and politely asked if I could finish my text in the lobby. She rudely asked me to leave again, this time in front of other guests. Her behaviour was unprofessional and made me feel unwelcome, even though I had spent money at the restaurant. I also noticed that her attitude seemed to make other guests uncomfortable, despite my efforts to be friendly. While the restaurant itself was decent, the hotel staff's treatment of me was unacceptable. I would not recommend using the hotel lobby unless you are a guest, as the staff clearly does not accommodate restaurant patrons.

I've stayed at The Inn at Harbor Shores a few times when visiting family in the St. Joe area. The…read moremost recent time I stayed was this past weekend, when they had a Sunday Santa brunch on the second floor. I didn't eat at the brunch but I was babysitting and we went to see Santa and grabbed some complimentary hot chocolate. The Santa looked great and the hot chocolate was delicious! The hotel was decorated beautiful for the holiday and the staff was friendly, as always. I've enjoyed lunch and dinner at their restaurant, Plank's Tavern, and I've always enjoyed their outdoor tiki bar with a water view! They have nice, updated rooms, a cafe that opens early for espresso drinks, and their hot tub is awesome because it goes outside! It's fun to relax in the hot tub during a Michigan snowfall. My only complaints are that the elevator is incredibly slow and they only accept dogs in the condos, which are much more expensive to stay in for a night compared to the hotel rooms.

In addition, we wanted to use our credit card points so our selections for this weekend were slim but overall this checked all the boxes. What went well was that our room was quiet. There was 24/7 coffee/tea available in the lobby. the space to walk the dog was really nice as there were two locations on either side of the buildings. Additionally enjoyed the set up of the room and the amenities such as the body wash and the hand soap. There is some room for improvement at this location in regards to breakfast items. It was very continental and really didn't do the trick however we were able to enjoy bagels, toast, hard boiled egg and they did have a few varieties of fresh fruit. In particular, I wasn't really a fan of the pancake machine and the traditional waffle iron would be much more hardy and suitable. Overall, no major problems with our room however, the TV system is unique and sometimes it works, and sometimes it didn't often to look at Pluto versus even accessing the live channels as their entertainment system is kind of finicky. Additionally, the lotion dispenser in our room did not work, and I really wanted to try the lotion as I thought the fragrance for the body wash and hand Soap was very pleasant. Lastly, the workers at this hotel are just not very friendly. They're not rude. They're just not hospitable and that was evident from the front desk to the breakfast attendance to the maintenance person. They just were not very friendly or engaging at overall. If in this area again, I would stay at this hotel if the price point was right. overall it was a good value and close to St. Joseph while having the charm of Stevensville.

I expect nothing but the best from the Hilton. However, I…read morehave been thoroughly disappointed on this visit. My reservation was a complete misrepresentation. In other words we were lied to on numerous details. I made a reservation 5 weeks in advance of arrival for a king room with sofa bed. This would accommodate My husband, myself and my 16 year old son. This was already less than what we really needed but we were told this was all that was available. My son could at least have the sofa bed. When we arrived, we were given a room with only a king bed and told that they took the sofa beds out some time ago. Huh? Then I was told by the front desk clerk and manager (with a heavy attitude of indifference & deference) that there was "nothing they could do that they were sold out" no offer to check other locations no apologies no show of sympathy no concern at all. I was told that because I booked with Expedia, it was really their fault/responsibility and not the Hilton. I countered that it was also the Hilton's responsibility to stand by reservation agreements. The manager basically sneered at me and accusingly said that I made the reservation with Expedia - a 3rd party and it was no responsibility on their part. She claimed that I "got the best daily rate of $248 vs the $278". Uh, excuse me I paid $394.99 per night" We reluctantly decided to check in and call Hilton corporate. I was super tired after our long distance drive. We were also told that the "complimentary breakfast" is not complimentary. That actually the breads danishes fruit were included but that the eggs bacon etc would incur added cost. I spent an hour on the phone with corporate and am now waiting for a promised call back.... Sounds like I also need to make a call to Expedia...

LIPSTICK ON A PIG…read more So, for those that have stayed at Silver Beach Hotel in the past, this review shouldn't come as a shock. However, its been several years that we had stayed there, through multiple renovations and we figured, "hey, what the heck, lets give it a try again, because it couldn't be worse then what it was in the past". Well - sure enough we were wrong. We booked the "Presidential Suite" since we were celebrating a milestone anniversary, and since it was still considered "off season", the prices weren't too terribly bad. When we got in the room, we saw hair in the corners of the shower, the shower glass door wasn't wiped down from the last time it was used, there was hair on the bathroom floor behind the toilet and in the sink. Running our hand over a side table in the room, you could see the streak of us displaying multiple layers of dust that was on the table. The floors weren't swept or mopped (at least this room had updated laminate flooring instead of that terrible carpet), and overall the room was just REALLY dirty. The pool is still "under renovation" (which is probably for the best with - don't advise anyone to go in that water if that would be of the same condition as the rest of the hotel), and their hotel bar is still closed. When we alerted the front desk about this condition of the room, they didn't seem to shocked due to their lackluster attempt at an apology. No offer for rectification or anything like that. I could go on and on, but im sure the point has come across. The kicker was, when we were ready to relax, we turned on the TV, to which we found there was no TV service or internet available. I called the front desk, and the guy said "we'll i'll need to come in the room to see what is going on". To which i turned down since we were trying to relax and go to sleep. End of the day, this hotel continues to be a major miss with location, service and amenities. It would be an absolute gold mine if someone would actually just take care of it, and put decent effort into it. If you just need a bed in a beach town for a night to relax, then yes, this is your place. HOWEVER if you actually want a "nice" hotel (which i'll use the term loosely since SBH doesn't even come close to "nice"), continue to look at Boulevard Inn or Harbor Shores Inn.

Which is expected at a value priced hotel. Sunday night was quiet. Nice location to nearby beaches. 15 min drive to Saint Joe where hotels are more expensive. Breakfast was nice.
