The view from the inn was gorgeous! The staff were fantastic with any support we needed. The carpet in the hall and stairs could use updating, but the location was terrific.

Great hotel
Nice location at the mouth of the Kennebunkport River as it empties into the Atlantic. Very large room - we stayed in the Inn section. Free bikes which enables covering most all of Kennebunkport to take pictures.

Simply Amazing
Amazing location, views and amenities. Mabel's, just across the street, is incredibly delicious. Great shopping on site, and convenient to the bustling waterfront village. We got a little aggravated over the night clerk not being able to access the beverage/snack station due to apparently not having a key, but overall a phenomenal experience.

Amazing location away from downtown congestion but bike able with plenty of bikes to borrow. And evenings by the fire pit!

Best view ever!
The BEST view we've ever had in any hotel anywhere! Absolutely stunning view of moored fishing boats, the breakwater, beach and open ocean. Lovely lawn with Adirondack chairs and fire pits plus free bikes to use anytime. A wonderful, relaxing and beautiful stay. Easy walk to the charming town.

Advertised as having a restaurant but it was closed.
Nice room but on 4th floor so a bit of a trek.
Reception staff not particularly helpful.

It was a pleasant stay although the rooms are extremely outdated and in desperate need of a renovation. However the area around it is beautiful with lots of things to do.

Such a quaint and pretty facility within walking distance to downtown and historic sites. There was no elevator in the section of the hotel we stayed in so it was two narrow flights of stairs each time we came and went. Some halls, walls and carpets were quite soiled, but our room was good. Staff was always helpful and kind.
