The Kennebunk Inn

"We stayed here for an overnight, and while we didn't get a chance to check out the tavern or walk around because of the rain, it was a lovely stay. Very clean and classic old new England style hotel. The walls are thin though, so it can be tough to get a good night sleep."

"The website doesn’t honestly present a true picture of the condition of the Inn. Upon our arrival, we were not greeted friendly and professionally. As we returned from an outing, the staff never looked up or spoke to us at all. Two boys working saw us struggling to get a suitcase up the stairs and never offered to help. The shower instructions said 8 minutes to get hot water. After 15 minutes it was only lukewarm. We had to retrieve something from our car late at night and the doors of the Inn were not locked and secure. We are sad to report the staff was less than hospitable and the conditions of the Inn were lacking."

"Very nice historic place, good location, clean, the room was really spacious, comfortable bed, with small fridge and microwave, small living room with TV. The staff friendly and helpful."

"Nice old inn. The restaurant was clos3d but the 2 local restaurants give a discount for breakfast in town. The stairs are steep and not a good place for seniors. The only negatives were the price and the noise from the Waterhouse Center where they play pickell ball. It is very annoying hearing those balls bounce every afternoon and evening. They should tell the guests about the noise in the rooms on the Northside prior to taking the reservation."

"The inn was very cute, but very dated. We’ve stayed in multiple inns while in Maine and this was not the worst or the best. The AC is loud but expected for an old building. The door to our room didn’t close all the way (needed to be sealed, you could see light all the way around) so you could hear everything from the hallway or lobby. Again, all par for the course. Our big complaint was on Memorial Day there was only one staff member who sat in the unopened restaurant the entire day on her phone and just stared at us every time we walked past. We we’re looking for silverware and a microwave (since the restaurant was not open and no breakfast was provided) and she never offered to help and she was too stand off-ish for us to approach. We may have just come too early in the year for good service, but it felt more like an abandoned building than an inn. The owner (I assume) was very nice and her kids were sweet and not loud while we checked in. VERY convenient EV charging close to the hotel."
