Beautiful old Inn, staff was really great! Had a really nice dinner in the Tavern as well. Room was pretty and sufficient but strange there’s no small fridge, microwave or coffee offered in the room. Other than that we would stay again. Maybe after the ice rink closes (music playing all night).

This place is an old historic building. The biggest complaint was that I could not get hot water. So, I had to shower @ my daughter’s home. Very in convenient. I would not stay there again.

This place has a certain charm, bit old fashioned, sloping floors and doors and no frills. However, it could do with a refresh. We were placed on the upper floor at the end of a long corridor that could do with a new lick of paint and some pictures on the wall even, maybe even a rug on the noisy wooden floor. That said, the room was warm and bedding / bathroom were clean. Unfortunately there is nothing to do in Kennenbunk, all the fun stuff is happening in Kennenbunkport so we found ourselves driving back to Kennenbunkport to hang out and get dinner. Can recommend the bakery behind the Kennenbunk Inn for breakfast though (The Boulangerie), which was just fabulous.

We enjoyed Kennebunk Inn, being so historical and right in the middle of downtown. Like the coffee and tea amenities. Nice bath products. Bed was comfy, but squeaky. Hot water came quicker than in the note of 8 min., thank you! It was noisy early morning with garbage truck and traffic. We were in the last room, so hauling luggage up 3 staircases was not fun. Wished all restaurants nearby were open on the day we were there. We would recommend Kennebunk Inn!
