So incredibly charming. The staff was so friendly, and the hotel has a beautiful dining and outdoor patio area. The rooms are what we expected for this type of preserved property, not spacious but again, what we expected. Comfortable bed, quiet and walkable to everywhere downtown. I would highly recommend.

The proximity to the harbor and the breakfast were good. However, the room was only cleaned one of the three nights we were there. There was no staff available in the evening, and we had to hunt for some fresh towels so we could take a shower when we got back from sightseeing.

My wife and I travel extensively and have stayed in many B&Bs. We were very disappointed by our stay at Hartstone. The staff were WONDERFUL and did their very best to make our stay comfortable, however the owners are clearly just taking cash from the building with little maintenance or upgrade. The room was very clean, however there were several holes in the walls that were roughly patched, but not sanded or painted. There was rust on the metal heater and doors. The mirror was chipped in several places. And more....
Most importantly, no one mentioned that the heat pump system was inoperable, while the outside temp was about 50F. When I tried to start the gas fireplace, it didn't work either. The staff tried their best, and finally the manager came and got it running in manual mode. The room became warmer, then way too hot (80F) so we had to switch that off. The manager brought a small electric heater and we discovered a small, rusty baseboard heater in the bathroom which we used all night to keep the room warm.
We can't comment on the breakfast since we left early and ate breakfast in town.

The Inn is adorable and has comfortable rooms that are decorated attractively. We enjoyed our daily, included breakfast—get the waffles! The location was perfect for exploring Camden. We also enjoyed a nice dinner one of our evenings. They did run out of menu items we would have ordered, but we had a nice meal all told. Some suggestions would be to include robes and slippers in the rooms. The only real negative is that there aren’t very many included amenities. We got two dental-floss picks that weren’t replenished.The two glasses for water weren’t cleaned daily. The toilet paper wasn’t replenished and we almost ran out. We said receive clean towels daily. I lived our stay but a little more attention to details would be appreciated.

We are repeat visitors to this inn. We can certainly tell that there are new owners. There seems to be an uncertainty at times with the staff. Whether it was a missed food item for breakfast or just not getting the room we booked. The communication between Expedia and the Inn may be off? The other thing I have to take issue with is the hot shower, or rather warm shower. We couldn't quite get the hot water we needed while the handle was fully open. This might suggest they are restricting the temperature. I think they are still getting a handle on managing an Inn. Best wishes!

A Lovely Gem in the Heart of Camden

Right in the heart of Camden, The Hartstone Inn is a gem. The staff is attentive and even warned us a holiday parade potentially blocking our arrival thus enabling us to adjust our travel time to Camden. Our room was pretty and clean, and the church bells at night were magical. We never had to use our car to visit the fine dining options, shops, galleries, and pier. The breakfast, which was included, was delightful. Not your typical free breakfast of prepackaged goods, but executed by a wonderful chef with a variety of delicious options to choose from. There is also a small bar and fine dining on premises with a tasting menu that looked yummy. We were visiting with friends, so we did not experience The Hartstone’s dinner option. Also, the trailhead to the hike up Mt. Battie with its gorgeous views of the bay and the Atlantic Ocean is just a minutes drive away.
We highly recommend this little getaway!

Clean and striving but quirky and idiosyncratic. Staff is kind and they try hard but they are handicapped by the two historic former houses which both have been contorted architecturally to put in stairs (at least FIVE independent stairways in our little building, three side by side) and to wedge in some fancy baths. Eclectic super low key operating model with no front desk, not much cash or IDs or any of that. Some other guests are repeat here and at sister properties; it took us a few days to figure out the drill. Clean, well appointed, friendly, but trying real hard to make the business model and physical plant work for them. Confusing if you are in a hurry or don't like puzzles. Delightful if you can take your time and soak up the vibe.

Not worth the money. Room was so dirty. Shower full of mold. Trash in bathroom under vanity and in bedroom under dresser. Night stands had stains where you could see fingerprints and drink water rings. Cobwebs. Bugs and spiders in screens for skylight over table where you eat. The room in main inn had stains all over the carpet and couch. Bed rattled everytime a semi drove past. Egyptian sheets are 100% polyester made in china. Bathrobes had dead spiders on them. Small lot filled up and we had to park at walgreens which you share a driveway with and is your view. Private garden patio is shared with all guests. No mini fridge in room. No staff after 8/9pm. Place was sold recently. All the towels were stained. Ac was filthy.

We had to leave our room due to mold. Finally the Expedia site does not truly represent what the property looks like, the new ownership or even what the actual room looked like. Once again… great staff …. but updating is sorely needed.

I'll start with the positives; there was a big two person jetted tub (as advertised), complimentary delicious breakfast & the hotel was close to downtown, in walking distance to other restaurants. The room shown on the expedia website (picture) was not accurate to the room we got; no fireplace in the room, not modern & not on the waterfront. It had no refrigerator & the hotel ice was empty the 1st night & we had to walk next door to Walgreeens to buy ice. Also, 5 days before our scheduled arrival, we received an email regarding making reservations for dinner. When we called a few days later, they were already booked & we were told it was because other guests staying at the hotel (which may have been said due to my response of not realizing that hotel guests had to make reservations). Although they did offer curb side pick up, not room service, to guests, the first night we walked down the street to Blaze & enjoyed amazing food & drinks. The 2nd night we left for sushi (drove) & upon arrival, all the guest parking was taken. We parked in the Walgreen's parking & was told that the parking would be available once people who were there for dinner had left. We were a bit confused because we were initially told that the reservations had been taken by other hotel guests, only to find out that it was not the case. We had specifically booked this motel for the onsite dining, the fireplace & the 2 person whirlpool tub. The hot water ran out while filling the whirlpool tub.

We booked a room at Hartstone Inn & Hideaway at the last minute as we were traveling through Camden, and I am SO glad we chose to stay there. We were upgraded from a standard room to a suite, which was truly wonderful after a day of hiking and travel. The suite itself was beautifully decorated, sparkling clean, and had everything we needed and more. I also had one of the best night's sleep of my life in the super comfy king-size bed. The TV's (there were 2 in the suite) were a bit dated, but that didn't bother us too much. The jacuzzi tub was a nice treat! The Hartstone really shines in its service and amenities - from the amazing food at dinner and (complimentary) 3-course breakfast to the common rooms stocked with games, ample seating, and coffee. Most wonderful of all, the owner stopped by our breakfast table to learn more about us and offer tips on what to see and do around Camden. Though we were only there for a quick layover, the Hartstone Inn & Hideaway was a real highlight of our trip to Maine and we will absolutely be staying there again on future visits.

One of the better B&B's in Maine

We stayed for 2 wonderful nights in late July, 2020. The staff was exceptional. If you're visiting Camden, The Hartsone Inn not only has gorgeous rooms with perhaps the most comfortable bed I've EVER slept on, but has an in-house award winning chef. Chef Salmon ( yes, that's his real last name ) produces consistently great food. The ricotta cheese cake-like breakfast starter with puree of raspberries was perfect for breakfast. The small bar has a great happy hour with a daily selection of craft cocktails. We plan on returning soon.

A nice gem in downtown Camden

This was such a gem right in the town of Camden Maine. Fantastic breakfast, amazing staff and very helpful innkeepers. We got to stay in the Hideaway which was Tucked in across the street. Very quiet and relaxing. Thanks to Carissa for being a friendly face.

Old Victoria Style Meets Modern Comfort!

Extremely kind staff who came to our rescue when a hotel we had originally booked down the road turned out to be grubby, gross and falling apart. We walked in at the end of an exhausting day, asked to see a room and were shown the \"Lavender\" Room in the Hideaway across the street on a little lane. Beautifully updated, very comfy bed, jacuzzi tub and fireplace and sitting room...food was fantastic at the Inn! 5 course dinner! Breakfast was included. Yum! Easy parking. Location right in the center of the sweet seaside town of Camden. Wish we could have stayed another night! Perfect for romantic weekend - though business had brought us to the area. Just can't say enough good things about this place! What a find at a fantastic price!!! Thank you to the \"front desk\" manager, the red-haired owner and staff for making a nightmare day turn into a perfect overnight experience! (There is no Front Desk...check in at the bar beyond the front entrance.)

We enjoyed our stay at the Hartstone Inn & Hideaway! We stayed in the beautifully decorated and comfortable Sorrento Suite. The hotel is in the center of Camden so restaurants, bars, and activities are conveniently close. The staff was warm, helpful, and welcoming. The breakfast was especially amazing! If you're visiting Camden, make sure to stay at the Hartstone Inn & Hideaway!

Could have been great

Room was very big but on third floor with steep stairs that we are not sure would pass any safety regulations. We banged our heard when descending very often. The place needs some very strict supervision as far as cleaning id concerned. Upon checking in we found some broken candy on the bedroom floor, it was still there when we left. The building we stayed at was away from the main building and served also as the home of the maintenance people who walked aroun in P.J's cooked and ate at the rooms that were supposed to serve the guests. The town is fantastic and the area amazing

Bit pricey for value

Lovely public seating areas inside and out. The check in person offered to assist with our suitcase up the very narrow stairs to the 3rd floor then she disappeared. Breakfast is in a nice sun room if you get there early. It was good but not great...certainly better than the norm in this region. Location good.

This is a lovely, charming B&B in the heart of Camden. Our Arbor Suite was spacious, spotless, and peaceful and the jetted tub was a nice feature. Breakfast was outstanding. The only slight downside was that the staff person who had very pleasantly checked us in asked us if we were staying at the inn when we encountered her two hours later.

TLC owner and staff

The owner Mike is hands on the the staff is top notch. Welcoming and dinner that night at their restaurant was great. Mike personally greets all his guests and is an accomplished chef. Wonderful experience will return to this location.

As a surprise for my husband's birthday, I booked a room during Camden's Windjammer Festival with a queen bed for 2 nights through Expedia. When we arrived, they put us in a tiny room with no access to water and a detached bathroom which was accessed through a common hallway. I complained, in private, and showed them my reservation did not mention this. The receptionist agreed I had been misled and was nice enough to move us to one of their cottages for the night. The next day, this same receptionist confronted me during breakfast, in front of my husband and all the other guests, telling me that the cottage was no longer available and that we needed to go back to the small room. When I told her I wasn't sure I'd want to stay in that room, she came back and demanded I make a decision before the end of our breakfast because she had just cancelled our reservation for the night. I wasn't familiar with the area, didn't want to find myself without a room, and saw my husband was becoming increasingly uncomfortable during this very public conversation. I reluctantly agreed to stay. Early the next morning, I complained privately and tried to sort the situation. I specifically asked they be a little more professional and not adress these public matters in front of my husband, for whom this had been a surprise birthday event.

We were given a “suite” in building next to hotel or a queen double as we reserved. Poor AC, stuffy, Small TV did not work. Too tired to go back and request different room. Breakfast was good.

Mixed

The inn is right in town. Did not get the room I chose on hotels.com. Was told that they can select a room in the price point offered. Instead of a private entrance and jacuzzi tub. I was in the annex building,upstairs with a shower. Although it was clean and comfortable. Very disappointing. Breakfast was excellent. Felt like I was mislead. Put a damper on our trip. Management not able to make any changes
