This is one of the nicest Inns I’ve stayed in. The staff was wonderful especially Heather. She took time to carefully explain everything to me. Also the morning desk person. I feel badly that I did not get her name. She spent time telling me some history of the Inn. The room was very comfortable and clean. Having a restaurant was a bonus. The food was excellent and staff very attentive. If given the opportunity I will stay again.

Hidden gem

The entire hotel is absolutely beautiful and has that old charm feel while still having all the modern amenities. The only downside was the mattress. It was like sleeping on ply wood! However, was doable for one night. Any more than that, nope. The views and location of this hotel are so peaceful and beautiful, especially at sunset!

This historical stop is right across the beach from a beautiful bay. Clean, quaint, great staff. Easy parking. We stayed in a room with deck access and it was lovely. Went for supper at the restaurant on site and had one of the best meals we’ve had on our trip.

Absolutely the most charming, friendly and picturesque place I've ever stayed. Great views from the room, great food and atmosphere in the bar.Had fun conversations with customers and the bartenders. Friendliest staff, a safe, walkable area with some fun bars close to the small downtown area. I give a 12 out of 10.

Stay on onset beach

We had a great stay. The staff was super friendly and accommodating. The food is excellent and the restaurant and speak easy lounge had great vibes. Only negatives would be the tv in the room is tiny could fit something a little bigger inside the entertainment center and no mini fridge in the room.

Great View of the Bay

The Glen Cove Hotel is a great place to stay! The deck rooms have wonderful views of Onset Bay, and it’s convenient to the beach and several restaurants. The restaurant in the hotel have some of the best food I’ve ever eaten! Some travelers might be turned off by the older elements—they till use old-fashioned keys instead of electronic locks, and the building is a converted historic house, so it doesn’t have the same updates that a chain would. But it’s very quaint and charming, and the rooms are quite comfortable!

Visiting on a cold August night!

For an older hotel, maintenance and updates were great. I would suggest at least one safety bar to help getting out of the tub. It was a very cold night. There was no staff on duty to tell us there was a heater tucked away in the closet. After check-in we never saw another staff person. That being said, the stay was very enjoyable.

Slice of Heaven

Glen Cove was so unique. The little town of Onset is so quaint. I was staying there on my own and loved walking on the beach, watching the sunset and shopping in the cute little shop! The staff was amazingly helpful at all times!

Beautiful Victorian home converted to hotel

Overall, very comfortable and enjoyable. The room was fairly clean but fan had not been dusted for a very long time. Other than that, it was lovely and comfortable. Staff was friendly and helpful. Continental breakfast could have had healthier options. There was a lounge on the third floor that was very relaxing and the bar in the basement was loads of fun with music and karaoke! I would definitely stay there again.
