We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. Our view from our room was of the harbor, with moored lobster boats and waves breaking in the distance. The staff were friendly, warm, and accommodating. If you are looking for a romantic, iconic Kennebunkport hotel, this is it.

The room was large and had a huge window overlooking the Kennebunk river and the ocean off to the left. The location truly can't be beat! We ate at the bar outside two nights and the food and drinks were exceptional. The only downsides were there was no dresser to put away your clothes even though the room had plenty of room to accommodate more furniture and the air conditioner was loud. We notified the front desk right after our first night and they said they'd have someone work on it, but we saw no improvement our second night. It was so loud when it cycled on that it could wake us up from a sound sleep and it didn't seem to be working that well. But other than that, it was a gorgeous place to stay!

We had a lovely stay here, the view was gorgeous and getting to sit outside with a cup of coffee looking out onto the water was special. It’s very kid friendly - our son was able to run around watching boats, throwing rocks, looking for shells on the waterfront. It’s simple, beautiful, clean with great everything you could want.

Hotel is in the middle of a remodel. Was supposed to have queen bed got a full. Other than that room was remodled nicely. Pillows weren't the greatest. No complimentary breakfast as was mentioned when booking. AC/ Heating very loud.When the remodel is finished it will be a nice little place to stay for a weekend.

We had a wonderful time. The views were spectacular. Room was a nice size and very clean. The only this I advise is if you have trouble climbing stairs please ask for the first floor rooms. Had to carry our heavy luggage up 2 flights of stairs. But the view from the upper floors is great.
