Several family members and I were in the area for my great-aunt's burial in nearby Mexico. Found the Blue Iris Motor Inn on line and after reading reviews, shared the info with my sister, who was making arrangements for 8 of us to travel here. Jean and Peter could not possibly have been more welcoming or more accommodating. We were... More

We stayed at the Blue Iris on a Saturday night (before checking in at Sunday River which for some weird reason does not allow Saturday check-ins), we wanted to be close to Sunday River to get a good start on our ski day on Sunday. I found the Blue Iris online and based on mostly positive reviews decided to stay... More

This was our first time in the area, and our random choice of lodging turned out to be fortuitous. Well maintained grounds and bright, friendly buildings right alongside the river. The hostess was delightful. We had a suite that was well-appointed and spacious. The kitchenette was fully stocked with utensils and cookware. We'll definitely stay here again on our next... More

Very nice with a lovely view of river from the back porch area accessible from sliding glass door in our room. Proprietor very sweet and very knowledgeable about the history of Rumford. We were given directions to the welcome center who in turn gave us lots of info about site seeing, restaurants, covered bridges in the area. Really enjoyed learning... More

Excellent motel with a great view of the river. Hosts are very friendly and know the area well. Room was very clean and A/C worked great.

This motel was very dated. I will say it was very clean and the lady at the check in desk could not have been nicer- she went out of her way to ensure I found a place open to have a meal. The room, however, leaves much to be desired. It was small but okay. The air conditioner only blew... More

First of all, the rooms are tiny. No amenities, no ice, no coffee, no hair dryer, no wake-up call, nothing. I have never seen a hotel that didn't have coffee in the morning, even at Motel 6. This place is completely bare bones, which would be fine if they were only charging $50 a night, not $75. In summary, if... More

This place was recommended to us by family and reviews here on TripAdvisor confirmed that it might be a good choice. We went to Rumford for a family wedding in May 2011 for an exteneded weekend. The place was spotless, the rooms very cute, the people who ran the place were so nice, and the price very good. The bathroom... More

We chose this motel to stay in both in 2009 and 2010. Had mentioned we would be golfing at Sunday River when making reservations the first time and was surprised the woman checking us in remembered our conversation and seemed to have a genuine interest in making our stay enjoyable. The same was true in 2010 on our return visit.... More

NIce owners, reasonably fine accommodations and plenty clean. However, I was on a tight schedule having to return to a contract and wanted to relax and nap before the next work commitment. The owners asked when I would arrive and commented when I checked in about what we had chatted about in terms of work commitment showing me they were... More
