We stayed here for 2 nights, including during Hurricane Irene. Although the area lost power for a few hours, we were comfortable in our room. The people working at the hotel were so friendly and checked on us after the power went out. The hotel is not fancy, but the view is phenomenal, and we loved Bucksport. The town is... More

I paid for the room with a river view. The view is outstanding, only one problem. If you are on the first floor, you are also on display. There is a public walkway that runs right by the rooms. You can't leave the curtains open to enjoy the view, because people are always walking by and looking in your room.... More

Stayed here for just one night. It is an older hotel that is in need of some updating but it was very clean. The breakfast was bread, packaged pastries and some cereal. Very simple. The thing that made this place was the staff. We were greeted by a lovely lady at the front desk when we arrived after 9 pm.... More

Friendly and helpful staff. Older hotel but very clean and comfortable. Beautiful view of bay and Fort Knox. Good food available in Bucksport. Reasonable travel distance for day trips to Bar Harbour or Acadia Park. Lovely boardwalk, quiet in town location. More

Our family booked 3 rooms for one night here last weekend, and we had a great time. The hotel staff was wonderful, very helpful w/ offering menus/recommendations for area restaurants/points of interest, etc. The rooms are a bit out dated, w/o refrigerators or microwaves, which made it difficult traveling w/ a 17 mo. old, but the view made up for...

Myu husband and I usually travel without reservations as we spend the night where we think is an interesting place to stay. On entering the Inn we found out that it was no longer a Best Western and were prepared to leave but fortunately decided to stay. We were pleasantly surprised. The lady at the reception area was very personable... More

The view from our waterfront room was great. It's what you'd expect from a Maine coastal town. The mile long river walk was beautifully designed and well kept. Bucksport is quaint little town with a small downtown with some shops. Theres a bookstore across the street and directly across the street was one of my favorite restaurants (seafood / steaks)....

This hotel was a wonderful place to stay. It was clean, the staff was very friendly, and the surrounding area was amazing. Definitely request a room with a river view; it's worth it. There are no washers or dryers in the hotel, but there is a coin laundry less than two miles down the road. The breakfast was a nice... More

We had a very large room (executive suite) on the fourth floor it had a beautiful view of the Penobscot river ,bridge and Fort Knox. The people that run the hotel was very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the... More
