Kennebunk Inn

If you are searching for an historic inn with affordable class where culinary passion is executed to near perfection, The Kennebunk Inn is the place. We are a quick 80 minutes north of Boston and 25 minutes south of Portland on Main Street, Kennebunk. Move from our front porch to all the twin villages of the Kennebunks (Kennebunk and Kennebunkport) have to offer - beautiful beaches, nature preserves, museums, galleries, antique shops, and more. We look forward to sharing our special place in the land of the pointed firs. Located on Main Street in the heart of Kennebunk Village.

Dated, antique furnishings in the lobby areas and creaking wood floors and steps only add charm to this delightful Inn! Our 2-bedroom suite was very modern & spacious enough for a family of 2 adults and 3 teen boys for 1 night. Plenty of closet storage and drawers. The suite had a single bathroom with a shower stall, but plenty of room and shelves to accommodate multiple guests. The sofa converts to a spacious & comfortable king bed. Bedding could be better - flat sheets are easier for housekeeping but come loose and slide around on the mattresses while sleeping. I had to readjust my sheets a couple times in the night to stay comfortable. Window A/C units worked well and kept the space cool, except in the king room where it felt warm despite adjusting the temperature down a few times. The kitchen was very nice! Although we didn't cook, we used the fridge to keep drinks cold and the microwave to reheat food. We used the dishes & utensils to eat breakfast we bought at Boulangerie behind the Inn. Tea, coffee & juice is complimentary at the back of the restaurant area. Be sure to have dinner at Academe on the main level!

The room was great, very clean. Made for an awesome stay. Only thing, low ceilings are tough for tall people le me (6'5"). Keep that in mind of you're tall.

We saw about the lobster pot pie on "the best thing I ever ate," so we stopped here excited to try it. It was definitely not the best thing we ever ate. My family also got the margherita pizza and the lobster pizza (featured in Oprah's magazine). The pizzas were delicious. Service was excellent. But we were disappointed in the pot pie .

Academe restaurant was AMAZING!!!
A hidden gem in town - not just for Inn guests.
Lobster pizza was off the hook! And their specialty lobster pot pie was a must have. We also had the blue cheese salad - yum!!! Worth every bite! And glad we stopped in for lunch!!!

Very friendly staff, very clean room. Everything is updated, and it's way more space and two people need and the price was great too. I would totally recommend this place. Next time I come back up here, and I do with family every year, I'm definitely owing to be staying here.

Great Inn with a bar and dining room right in the heart of downtown Kennebunk.

Never stayed at the Inn but have eaten at the restaurant and had cocktails at the bar. The food is good as well as the service.

Parking is easy and usually right on the street.

We had a wonderful week here! Cannot say enough nice things about the staff at the inn, they lent me scissors to wrap Christmas gifts, and kindly gave us some extra time before checking out during a bad snowstorm. Room was much more than expected, it was VERY pet friendly (wood and tile!) and had an unexpected extra day bed perfect for tv viewing. It was quiet and private in our section of the inn, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

The food at their restaurant is excellent: fresh, delicious, finely seasoned it will raise your gastronomic experience to a higher level. Definitely try: lobster pizza and lobster pot pie! The hotel is in a beautiful historic building and well maintained. Great service.

My husband and I stay there for 1 night. While the staff and restaurant were amazing, the room itself was not all that great. Beside the creeky floors (which I'm sure you're thinking, well, it's an old building, of course it's going to have creeky floors, but they were creeping ALL night...and loud), the room did not feel private at all. Our specific room had a gab between the door and the frame which left us feeling very exposed. The bathroom was extremely outdated and felt dirty and our bed was made with a sheet that didn't actually fit the bed so in the middle of the night we were sleeping on the mattress protector...bleh.

I am giving it 3 stars bc the staff was absolutely wonderful in both the Inn and the restaurant. Our food/drinks were fantastic and original. Maybe a little more attention and updates could be made to the Inn.

Easily located on a main Street. Very old house. Creeky floors. Small TV but comfortable bed and pillows. Another negative is NO breakfast whatsoever. just coffee and tea

I ordered the 'Lobster Pot Pie.' This item has been said to be critically acclaimed, so I expected the best. It wasn't as good as it was said it was. Other than that, my only complaint would be the waiter. She was a little weird

Great menu, food, and the tenured service is second to none. Historical accomodations are well kept and a great location. Looking forward to staying again next time through.

Hard to beat the quality and value of this local gem. Whenever we go to southern Maine on vacation, this is a dinner stop for at least two nights. We really like the lobster white truffle pizza, the lobster pot pie and the seafood chowder. The cocktails are great, too.

Both the lobster roll and the lobster pie contained spoiled lobster meat. It smelled and tasted horribly. Will definitely not go there again.

Dinner at the Kennebunk Inn is always wonderful, from their cocktails, to their food, to their stellar service. The cocktails vary from the traditional pomegranate margarita, to the quintessential blueberry cosmo made with blueberry ice. Their entrees will please anyone in your crowd, with choices such as chicken croquettes, pan seared filet mignon with black truffled cream corn, and a hamburger with your choice of toppings and ranch house fried potato chips. Don't forget dessert; moderation sizes of each of their delectable desserts, including their unforgettable s'more, make it impossible to say no.
