The Tavern staff was WONDERFUL.The room was quite disappointing.Chipped paint, bathroom had Zero lighting so couldn’t applymake-up.The shower outdated and super small.The highlights were fresh baked cookies in the lobby, and coffee always.They don’t offer a breakfast,not even continental which was a down point for me.The air conditioner in window was on its last leg.If you are looking for an upscale,romantic spot, definitely not for you.

We had a wonderful stay at the Kennebunk Inn. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the staff was friendly, welcoming, and always willing to help.
The hotel has a lot of historic charm, being a very old property, and it is absolutely beautiful. The character and atmosphere make it a unique place to stay and really add to the overall experience.
If you're visiting Kennebunk, I would highly recommend the Kennebunk Inn. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would gladly return in the future.

The property is a refurbished inn from the 1600- 1700 time period. It has about 25 rooms in the center of Kennebunk and very walkable to services, dining and shops.
Because of its age, one can hear a lot of noise/activity inside and out, but the property does know this and offers ear plugs and eye masks for its guests.
Nicely kept historic inn for this 250th birthday of the USA!

Dog-friendly & great location

Second time staying here. Can walk to shops & restaurants, dog-friendly. Charming building over 200 years old. Cons: Our room was on 3rd floor, so up & down 2 flights of stairs every time we walked dog. Shower backed up 1st time we used it, but they fixed it and comped us at the bar for our shower trouble.

We enjoyed our stay and the large room for our family. You just need to keep in mind this is a 200-year-old building and is very creaky, with no elevators. The kids loved the maze of stairways and exploring. The claw-foot tub wasn't the most convenient for my tall husband, but fine for everyone else. The staff here is AMAZING, Angela is a wealth of knowledge on the area and made some great recommendations off the regular 'tourist' path!

Upon check-in, we were given a map of the area and she showed us all the good places to eat, very much appreciated as this was our first time to Kennebunk. The room was small as expected. No space for me to place my toiletries. I had a small night stand to place some things. Bathroom was very small. The sink was too small for me to wash my face, and very low to the ground so I got water all over myself and the floor. TV did not work. Showed we were connected to the network but could not watch any live tv or movies and I kind of needed it to help me fall asleep. Its an old house, creaky floors. We had people above us and they were running/pounding across the floor and then falling down or dropping large objects very late at night keeping me awake. Both nights that we stayed. But it was charming and cute, nice courtyard to sit in. Lots of parking in a lot next door. 8 minute drive to Kennebunkport and beaches. It has a restaurant but its dinner only which was disappointing. Would have been nice to eat breakfast there. There was no room service which I was not aware of. We left the used towels in a pile. When we got back that night, the towels were still on the floor and bed was not made. Instead, there was a paper bag next to all the doors with new towels. So I didnt understand why there was an envelope to tip the maid when she never came into our room.

Pickle ball court directly next to hotel!

We recently stayed for 3 nights and, while the property has potential and the front desk staff were very friendly, there were several issues that impacted our experience:

1.Pickleball Courts: The pickleball courts are located directly next to the room we were in. Games continued after sunset, and the noise level was significant. Again, the swamp coolers helped a bit, but it’s not ideal for those wanting a quiet evening. On the second night, the court lights were also left on all night, and since the room only has standard blinds (no blackout shades), the light streamed in, making it hard to sleep.
2. Tavern Closure: The on-site Tavern was closed for the entirety of our stay, which was disappointing, especially since this was not communicated to us prior to arrival.
3. Safety Concern: The downstairs side entrance door remained unlocked overnight, which raised some safety concerns.
4. Noise Issues: Every night, around 1am, there was a loud banging noise coming from the refrigerator area. Unsure if it was old pipes or something structural — I even recorded the noise the first night. We resorted to running the swamp coolers on high the next two nights just to drown it out.
5. Room Maintenance: There was tape around the windows, possibly to block drafts, but it didn’t look great and detracted from the overall appearance of the room.
6. Housekeeping: Housekeeping did not sweep during our stay; debris and sand from earlier in the day were still present when we returned to our room

Read before booking- things to know

Ok, hate to give a just OK review but have to here. The staff was nice, location was good/safe, but the Inn was DATED. It was fine for us for a couple of nights but this is not the place for you if you can’t do old rickety stairs, or climb into a bathtub for the shower, or expect AC (did provide a window unit but was also old and loud), or peeling paint, stiff beds etc. It has charm but needs a major makeover. Sign in the bathroom said you may have to wait 8 mins for hot water. Again, staff was nice and location was good but you should definitely know that stuff before booking there as the rooms were non refundable. We could see it not working for many people.

We enjoyed our stay so much we extended it by another night! The rooms were comfortable and charming. The tavern was a great spot for dinner & a drink, and the staff for the inn were all so friendly and helpful and even gave local recommendations. We felt so welcome! We also enjoyed rocking in the rocking chairs in the porch. There is a French bakery behind the inn and we enjoyed it for breakfast each morning. And we also enjoyed walking through the historic district, which is convenient to the inn. We would stay there again in a heartbeat!

We arrived at check-in time and was greeted by the most friendliest front desk person. The Inn was very cute and clean. The best bakery ever behind the Inn! I would stay again in a heartbeat.

Wonderful New England Inn!

Such a unique and beautiful historic, quintisential New England building! Loved hearing about the history of the Inn as well as the 3 ghosts that live there! The only suggustion I would make is to upgrade the mattresses, bedding and pillows.

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!

Lovely quaint hotel

It was a 200+year old hotel which brought in all the charm and memories from that era. Customer service was exceptional. There are no elevators so be sure you can manage the stairs.

Darling Inn in Kennebunk. Loved the antique feel with modern conveniences. Creaky floors, comfy bed, hot shower, nightly cookies. Only wished the Tavern was open more days. The timing of our trip only let us have a cocktail one night. Would have loved to dine there as well.

While the staff was incredibly kind, the room we stayed in had a very very* stained pull out couch and mattress, which was difficult to overlook. Little to no water pressure, making it difficult to shower. My family and I appreciated the convenience of this hotel but it definitely needs some tlc. Will not be returning.

Would stay again

A clean comfortable room. I only wish I researched it more carefully to know in advance that my room wouldn't come with a mini fridge and microwave. The toilet often ran water during the night, but that was the only repair issue during my short two night stay.

Charming Hotel, Great Staff

This was a last minute booking after something else fell through and we were shocked at how lovely it was. This is an old home converted to hotel. It was so quaint and well furnished.

We had a family room and it was quiet and dreamy. There were homemade cookies set out for us in the lobby and a lovely bakery just across the parking lot. The breads an pastries were great.
