Kennebunk hotellia

Plussat: Michael and Bill were just fantastic! This was my first B and B experience. I loved every minute! My room was so clean. They had tea there for me and fresh cookies when I arrived. Then the next morning, they made a fantastic breakfast. I’m now a lover of B and B’s for life!

Plussat: A great inn with wonderful hosts.

Plussat: Elmerehouse is delightful and Bill & Michael made us feel so welcome, making all their guests feel very special. The breakfasts were really yummy, with french toast with fruit and maple syrup a speciality. The bedroom was very tastefully decorated, spotless, with comfy bed. The location is brilliant to visit Perkins Cove and Kennebunkport just a few miles up the road.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Everything exceeded expectations!

Plussat: Beautiful everything

Miinukset: What???? No dislikes

Plussat: Breakfast was amazing! It was made to order and probably some of the best pancakes ever. The owners were also super friendly and accommodating. You could tell that they tried their best to make sure our stay was the best it could be. Rooms and house in general was super cozy.

Miinukset: The bathroom was a little small, but it was still nice

Plussat: Breakfast was awesome! Hosts extremely personable and accommodating

Plussat: The location was easily accessible from the side street. Breakfast was fresh and made from scratch on the premises, and served with a smile and accompanied with soft relaxing music. Staff was friendly and made us feel like we were family visiting from out of town.

Miinukset: The water pitcher was left uncovered all day and night, also the black tea bags were not in their original containers and so were left exposed. They could have been kept in a Ziploc bag.

Plussat: Everything

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: The Inn is beautiful inside and outside. The rooms are luxurious and furnished beautifully. The breakfast is very good and snacks and coffee and drinks are always available. The inn is pretty close to town so you can walk parking is not avaiable in town. The cost is very expensive

Plussat: We have stayed here before and loved coming back to stay. The B and B is beautiful! Our room was very comfortable and beautiful! The breakfasts were delicious!

Miinukset: Everything was wonderful!

Plussat: Breakfast was very good and the gardens and property are lovely. They also have outdoor seating and fire pit. They offer complimentary snacks and beverages which is nice. Our room was not in the mansion but the garden house, but with only four rooms, it was very private and quite.

Plussat: Reasonable location and very cheery young man helped with luggage

Miinukset: This is a historic museum collection experience and an utterly unpleasant stifling one, NOT a hotel. All the pretty tatty furniture and including beds & rugs is old. With this comes a lingering smell exaggerated by the many old & junk shop items strewn around the place. The walls are generally very flowery dated wallpapers with terribly dingy lighting everywher. The huge number of "paintings" are appallingly bad modern copies in imitation old frames. The lady who showed us around was quite controlling & intense, explaining that breakfast is for everyone together in the kitchen. In our allocated room the mattress on the bed was over 4ft / 130cm high requring library steps to get in bed. Nothing had been said about this which would be impossible for elderly or disabled and a danger if you fell off. The sheets were well worn microfiber not cotton (for which there was a request, a reply, a denial of reply and nothing achieved). The dressing gowns were grubby polyester. The 'garden' is some lawn open to the road under trees. Considering the reviews this accommodation does not deserve it's ratings whatsoever. It is indeed exceptional since the photos are truly misleading. It is undoubtedly like visiting a museum property, is not classy and is certainly not a hotel. Avoid!!!

Plussat: A stunning property with a real sense of history! The welcome and guided tour given by Lynn, the informal feel of the Mansion and perfect location.

Miinukset: Nothing to dislike!

Plussat: Pleasant staff. Decent breakfasts. Beautiful exterior of original Federal mansion. Comfy bed. Good shower.

Miinukset: Didn’t like being in an out-building not as nice as main mansion. Didn’t like the decor. Things like cheap fake versions of Renoir paintings, far too many tchotchkes. Expected elegance; got tackiness. Thus a little overpriced. We’d just stayed at the Black Point Inn at Prout’s Neck for the same price, and there was no comparison between the two places.

Plussat: Great location, exceptionally clean, helpful friendly host, wonderful breakfast prepared daily with dietary needs in mind. Water, cork screw, wine glasses provided. Nice touch, Good size fridge for drinks and snacks in the room. Patrick the owner was really helpful suggesting restaurants and activities with accurate descriptions. Plenty of parking.

Miinukset: Conversations from guests in next facility sounded like they were outside the window. Road noise was prevalent but steady so easier to ignore. AC was to close too bedside for me and would consider moving to another window if possible. Would be nice to have a shelf over the sink.

Plussat: Everything! From the welcome by Patrick to our departure we thoroughly enjoyed our visit. The room was very comfortable and the breakfasts were freshly cooked and beautifully presented - the special French Toast (Eggy Bread to some British visitors) was exceptional.

Miinukset: This is not a dislike, but a comment -the stairs to Rooms 2 and 3 are steeper than normal, but are part of the original build. They are manageable with care.

Plussat: The bed was extra comfy

Plussat: Absolutely wonderful. Patrick was gracious and breakfast was superb. The best New England blueberry pancake ever!!!

Miinukset: None

Plussat: Bed was comfortable. Room was charming with fireplace. Breakfast was delightful with delicious blueberry pancakes with maple syrup and bacon!

Plussat: Patrick the owner was great, breakfast delicious, Room spacious and clean, perfect location.

Plussat: It was all we hoped and more, a beautiful house. All the staff made you feel like family. The most comfortable bed we have ever slept in. We felt we were seeing the real America. Will definitely stay again. Breakfast was delicious

Miinukset: Nothing.

Plussat: Beautiful house. Very friendly staff. Free parking. Served, freshly made breakfast.

Miinukset: Bathroom rather small, especially the shower.

Plussat: Breakfast was fabulous!

Plussat: The staff was extremely friendly and nice, the cottage was spacious, clean and comfortable. The location was vert convenient and magical.

Miinukset: The breakfast was not very well organised, we appreciate that the owners try to make it personalised but there was a miscommunication about time of breakfast and eventually we ended getting an average breakfast. I would have proposed they adopt an electronic way to book the breakfast time and account any dietary restrictions the same as they do with electronic check-in and check-out maybe.

Plussat: Honestly, I enjoyed everything about this place. It was immaculate, friendly staff, grab location and the breakfast was outstanding.

Plussat: A high end b&b. Comfey, beautifully appointed room. Close to Kenninbunkport center. Thoughtful touches. Excellent food. Friendly welcome and efficient. Super clean.

Plussat: We loved our stay. The breakfasts were amazing! The staff was very accommodating and friendly, we would definitely stay here again!

Plussat: The staff was pleasant, it was located close to shops & dining and the cottage was immaculately clean...

Miinukset: The pictures looked more luxurious than the room actually was. However, we still enjoyed our stay at this quaint cottage inn..

Plussat: Excellent service, warm and helpful staff, and very comfortable rooms. Breakfasts were wonderful - ask to try their granola!

Plussat: Elizabeth is the new owner and is doing a great job. This is a lovely place to stay

Plussat: We liked everything about it, very clean, very modern, classy and cozy! Great service and great Food, Elizabeth has done a great job.

Plussat: Beautiful setting and our host was so gracious

Plussat: The breakfast was wonderful all three days we were there. The owner and her staff were very helpful and friendly.

Plussat: Everything!!!

Plussat: Beds comfy

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Breakfast was delicious!

Miinukset: There wasn’t anything to not like!

Plussat: The home was meticulous, and lovely. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. We stayed for 2 nights, and the breakfasts were delicious.

Miinukset: Everything was great. The bathrooms are a little outdated, but we knew that before we went there, and they were clean. Which is all that matters!

Plussat: The hosts make you feel so welcome. The property is so comfortable you may not want to leave. The breakfasts are extremely good and set you up for the day. All the bed linen etc is of a very good quality and the whole inn is spotless from top to bottom. Don’t forget to look out for the homemade cookies.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Our time at the Waldo Emerson inn was wonderful. Hanna was the perfect host, from the moment we arrived to the moment we headed home. Clean, comfortable and inviting, along with the most delicious breakfast! Who could ask for more?

Plussat: The Inn is lovely with every niche thoughtfully planned for guests. Breakfasts were creative and delicious. The bed and bedding were a dream. So lovely!

Plussat: Beautiful property. The home is old and historical but that’s right up our alley! We stayed for 5 days and it was like staying with family! This is also a locally owned B&B not a conglomerate owned by some off site company. And the breakfasts are prepared by the owner a trained chef! Hannah and her entire staff were amazing. We feel like we have true friends there now and will definitely be back!

Miinukset: We had no complaints. We had read some of the reviews that some thought the house was too old or the snacks were too sparse. But for us we wanted to stay in an older historical home and we felt the snacks, fresh baked cookies, coffees, teas and candy were excellent!

Plussat: Our Host Hana was GREAT Loved the place very unique Extremely charming Would return anytime

Plussat: Charming olde world New England Inn

Plussat: Everything! Carl and Eileen are the perfect hosts and will do anything to make our stay comfortable.Homemade cookies in the afternoon were a nice touch.

Miinukset: nothing

Plussat: The location was ideal - quiet, but within walking distance of the town centre. We received a friendly welcome and the room was comfortable. The breakfast was lovely - home cooked, healthy and with consideration taken of my dietary needs.

Miinukset: We were very happy with everything.

Plussat: Very clean, food, great innkeepers

Miinukset: Room a little small

Plussat: Everything

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: breakfast was gourmet

Miinukset: Closer to town for folks whose walking is limited Place was great, host and hostess were special

Plussat: Unfortunately we had only one day in the area. This was a quiet rest after a busy day. We enjoyed the town and the surrounding area. Breakfast was great.

Plussat: Renovations were happening all week so breakfast was in the meeting room, the pool was closed, and on Monday there were no cookies between 8-9pm. Not a huge problem, but these three issues are why the above ratings are not higher. I was not told in advance that reovations would occur this past week. Had I known I would not have chosen the hotel.

Miinukset: I feel that I should have been informed in advance that renovations would be happening during the week I was planning to stay so that I could have made an informed decision. Perhaps the rate should be discounted.

Plussat: location

Miinukset: overpriced

Plussat: Clean. Comfortable. Very helpful, frienfly staff. Excellent full breakfast.

Plussat: Location

Miinukset: Price; not worth the premium price charged. There are several alternatives available of the same quality for half the price.

Plussat: Location!! Nice alternative to all the b&bs. Very clean. Staff was friendly.

Plussat: Pool and hot tub were very nice. Breakfast was great as well.

Miinukset: Took a while to check in.

Plussat: Great value for the price

Miinukset: No

Plussat: Cleanliness. Staff polite and helpful. Had room issues which were corrected quickly. Nice free breakfast until 10am. Parking was fine. Indoor pool and Jacuzzi.

Miinukset: The driveway entrance/exit at this location is terrible due to heavy traffic on main road. AC/Heating unit in room was inop. Shower head fell apart in my hand while trying to adjust spray pattern. Standard Internet service/speed poor.

Plussat: EVERYTHING WAS PERFECT. BREAKFAST WAS EXCELLANT.

Miinukset: NO

Plussat: We brought the grandkids up from Massachusetts to do some outlet shopping and winter swimming. The room was clean and comfortable, kids loved the pool and the breakfast was yummy!! Great time for all

Plussat: The location is very favorable! Close to movie theater, grocery stores, and sight seeing. Stayed for my first time last year, and due to the friendliness of the staff, I returned!

Miinukset: Trying to cross busy RT 1 can be tricky "in season", but that's summer in New England. Unaware that pool was being reconstructed? Cable TV a bit hit or miss. Constantly interrupted by rebooting 😕

Plussat: Very friendly and helpful staff.

Miinukset: The room temperature did not maintain at the level I chose, some towels were not replaced as I had hoped...

Plussat: Great place Great location Up early Saturday morning going downstairs for free coffee but door locked to lobby. I just think coffee should be there by 7:00am After 8:00 coffee finally arrived. Also shower stall light out

Miinukset: Up early Saturday morning going downstairs for free coffee but door locked to lobby. I just think coffee should be there by 7:00am After 8:00 coffee finally arrived. Also shower stall light out during our stay

Plussat: Fabulous location, great modern clean room, lovely staff & free bikes.

Miinukset: Breakfast was very minimal, just pastries & tea and coffee.

Plussat: Great and clean rooms and hotel overall; friendly staff, loved the coffee and snacks at front desk area, location, etc. Great place!

Plussat: It was in the perfect location... steps from The Clam Shack, a local favorite, and walking distance from everything in Kennebunkport.

Plussat: Location was perfect.. staff was wonderful.. adorable boutique hotel

Plussat: Outstanding facilities and amenities

Miinukset: It rained one day out of three

Plussat: Great staff. Beautiful hotel. Would love to come back.

Miinukset: Few more strawberries and breakfast would’ve been ok

Plussat: Looks new and clean, WiFi everywhere, very decent breakfasts included - very nice overall.

Plussat: Breakfast was very good. Staff excellent. Beds comfortable and room warm and enough room for the 3 of us

Miinukset: The closing of the door.... Locking devices very loud.

Plussat: The staff and management were so wonderful! They helped straighten out a booking.com mistake. I had broken my foot the previous day during our travels and the hotel staff were incredibly attentive and kind. The staff new our first names when we saw them in the hall or were just passing through. The hotel was decorated so beautifully for the holiday season. We felt very much at home and truly enjoyed our honeymoon.

Plussat: The Hotel opened on June 14/2017 so it is pristine in every respect. Nice glass door shower

Miinukset: The free breakfast the first morning was awful. Egg with cheese terrible and ham very poor. The second morning was terrific because different person prepared scrambled eggs and sausage patty and home friesl Bravo to her on Weds morning.

Plussat: Amazing value.. Sparkling clean and the bed is super comfortable. It’s the perfect size. We will be coming back many times!!

Plussat: Swift check in, pleasant staff. Really enjoyed the walk to the gym Thanks Wish it wasn’t so expensive during warmer months! Still appreciate the night!

Miinukset: Not enough gym keys to hold on to more than one. No biggie. Movies vhs in condo yet no VCR?!?! What gives? Had some videos would’ve been nice to see.

Plussat: The location was near a home that my daughter and son-in-law just bought. The living space, separated from the bedroom, was helpful, because my husband and I were not disturbing each other during the night. One of the nicest places we have stayed in Wells.

Miinukset: All was fine.

Plussat: We’ve been coming up here for 12 years. We love the location and the pool (indoor and out), and the staff are wonderful. During the summer there is so much to do, and the Elmwood offers nightly entertainment. During the winter, the indoor pool is a blessing. The WiFi has been updated.

Miinukset: The units are individually owned, so our complaints may only apply to this unit. The fridge defroster leaked into the fridge, the couch was uncomfortable.

Plussat: Very clean! Lots of room for a family to feel comfortable and rooms are modern and have all the comforts of home

Miinukset: It’s a beautiful property, not much to complain about

Plussat: The property was a good size for our family of 5. The kitchenette was well-appointed, and there were several places that we could spread out and relax. The pool was very clean and rarely busy. The playground and outdoor games were a nice bonus.

Miinukset: At every turn it felt as though the property owners were looking to charge you more. At check-in they took a $100 damage deposit (which I hadn't remembered in the conditions when I booked). There was a trade-in card system to borrow pool towels that felt punitive. If a card wasn't returned, you would be charged $25 for the towel. In addition, at check-out I was told that there was a credit on my account, but after several minutes and a few "miscellaneous fees" added to my bill, my account balance "matched" what I paid on booking.com. When I called the property after check-out, the owner told me that it was a computer glitch between booking.com and their property so I wasn't entitled to any of the "credit" that was supposedly on my account. If the room COULD be rented at the price on my bill and I wasn't refunded any part, I just feel as though I was overcharged. It's a shame because this is our annual trip, and we would have considered booking here again (and again) if they had made us feel like valued and guests.

Plussat: full kitchen and air conditioned

Miinukset: A little bit dated

Plussat: Very clean and spacious. Indoor and outdoor pool.

Plussat: Felt like home away from home. WiFi was strong enough to stream movies from Netflix and play online games. Came with a fully stocked kitchen (utensils, wine opener, ice tray, bowls ect.). Was very pleased

Miinukset: No hot tub. Could hear other guests walking around in the room above us

Plussat: The property is gorgeous - so picturesque - clean and comfortable

Plussat: The property is a vintage New England house and is delightful with a lot of period features. Shay the General Manager was so welcoming, helpful and friendly. Just a 5 min walk into the centre of Kennebunkport

Plussat: A fabulous inn impeccably managed. Highlights were position, the daily tapas style breakfasts which are unique, comfortable bed and feather pillows and outside fire pit for a relaxing drink. Kennebunkport was a highlight of our North East US visit.

Plussat: The location of the property is second to none, gorgeous little street and no more than 5 mins walk into central Kennebunkport. Shay was fantastic and it felt like a home from home.

Plussat: I loved the proximity (walking distance) to all that Kennebunkport has to offer! The staff was so welcoming and attentive. We will be back!

Plussat: Just what we thought a nice Maine inn.

Plussat: It was a very homie type place

Plussat: Expected the property to have better views, but owner Bill very pleasant and humorous, and off road parking good. Breakfast was simple but nice, and atmosphere excellent with Bill and Mum joining us and two other guests, to make it a genuine, relaxed time. About 15 minutes walk to Kennebunkport town, with good shops and restaurants, so all in all a nice inn, well placed.

Miinukset: Not much room for improvement, and worth remembering this is an established house, not a purpose built, new venture. Half the enjoyment of properties like this is the charm of the building itself.

Plussat: Beautiful accommodation, excellent breakfast, charming hosts.

Plussat: What a wonderful stay! Just a gorgeous home, so warm and cozy. The key ingredient here is Bill, the best host ever! He made us feel so welcomed and cared for. He even cooked a healthy, delicious breakfast and joined our morning conversation. My husband and I have stayed at many b&bs through the years and this one is at the top of our list. Quiet, peaceful, and very memorable.

Miinukset: I can't think of anything that I didn't like!

Plussat: location was good, just 1/2 mile from downtown kenneybunkport. Breakfast was only served from 9-10 am and we had to leave earlier. No other option offered for breakfast.

Miinukset: No TV in room. Wifi didn't work in our room. Bed was extremely soft. Walk-in shower was probably 30 inches wide. No nightstand or light on one side of bed. Wine was meager. Just had small amount of white wine in a box. Didn't think good value for over $250 per night.

Plussat: The owners/staff were friendly, helpful, and provided a delicious breakfast. First floor common areas were cozy and comfortable.

Miinukset: Bedroom furnishings were clean and certainly adequate. The room was not luxurious. An additional lamp or two would be helpful.

Plussat: Very nice and comfortable big room, lovely breakfast and very good wifi connection. Location is very good too. Short walk to the centre of town and close to the ocean. Would have loved to stay longer.

Miinukset: -

Plussat: Beautiful house in a fabulous location, just a 10 minute walk into town. Bill makes everybody feel like old friends and encourages guests to sit and chat together, in our case in front of a log fire.

Miinukset: One night wasn't long enough.

Plussat: Wonderful breakfast, fabulous host

Miinukset: Nothing!

Plussat: Close to the restaurants

Plussat: Location was excellent !!! Close to Dock Square which is why we went to Kennebunkport .

Miinukset: Door kept getting stuck

Plussat: Room was very nice bed very comfortable

Miinukset: Breakfast buffet could have a few more options, fresh fruit maybe

Plussat: Waffles were excellent

Plussat: Everyone was friendly. The location was great and the rooms were clean and comfortable

Miinukset: Wished they had a bigger Lobby to be able to sit and talk with friends

Plussat: Wonderful location!

Miinukset: No elevator so we had to carry heavy luggage up the stairs.

Miinukset: Great location, breakfast included, quiet

Miinukset: Hotel billed me incorrectly. They ignored the deposit I made to secure the room therefore charging me 50% more for than room advertised. I'm currently working with my Credit Card company to resolve.

Plussat: location

Miinukset: pillows were tiny

Plussat: the front desk was AMAZING. She helped us get around town, gave great recommendations and was just extremely hospitable. Highly recommend the Kings Port Inn!!

Plussat: The central location was a perfect option for the event we attended

Miinukset: The shower head was strange but my only real complaint would be that breakfast was lacking options. Not everyone wants to eat such a carb heavy breakfast. The only choices were waffles, pastry, and breads

Plussat: The property is beautiful, cozy and romantic. Staff was very friendly and the breakfast very good too.
