“Fantastic Place to Stay!!”

1830 Admiral's Quarters Inn

Oct 17, 2006
2/2 found this review helpful

We just returned from a 4 night stay at this wonderful inn and we wished we could have stayed longer!! The location is excellent, you can walk all over Boothbay Harbor. The view from the top floor is beyond belief, the owner (Les) and all of his staff are very special people and this is just the best place we have ever stayed!! We loved watching the lobster boats in the harbor from our window and from the deck. You can see THREE lighthouses blinking from Room #4 and the sunrise is spectacular!! The fireplace helped to keep our room toasty in the evening. Breakfasts are unique, delicious and "presented" to you each morning in a beautiful sunny solarium.....there is a buffet, and an entree and even a dessert each morning!! Treat yourself special and stay here :)!! We loved it and will go back!!

Our first trip to Maine, and we couldn't have chosen a better place to stay! The hosts of the B&B (only 7 rooms) were great; and our second floor room (#4), with our own outside entrance, had a bedroom and balcony with the most incredible view of the harbor! Breakfast is from 8:00 to 9:30 each day, with homemade pastries and cooking, something different every day. The location is just a block walk to shops, the piers, restaurants, etc. Les had many "tips" for driving tours, sights, and things to do. The bathroom was a little small, but after all the inn is almost 200 years old. Our stay exceeded our expectations, and would recommend this if you're looking for the true flavor of a Maine coastal Village.

“Home Away From Home”

1830 Admiral's Quarters Inn

Dec 16, 2005
4/8 found this review helpful

We've been going to this area for a while now but never stayed at a B&B. One year my Husband & I wanted to be in town for the Windjammer Festivities so we walked into the Admiral's Quarters Inn and the minute we stepped in we were greeted by the hosts, Les & Deb Hallstrom, and they made us feel like we were home. Deb's breakfasts are awesome and delicious and different each day, Les' wit remarkable, and their great staff wonderful. Since we've been going here, we have met such wonderful friends and we meet here every year in October. Once we walk into the Admiral's Quarters Inn, we never want to go home. Because of our hosts, our friends and my Husband and I would love to live here. The people are just super.

“The Best by Far”

1830 Admiral's Quarters Inn

Sep 10, 2005
3/3 found this review helpful

I have stayed a the Admirals Quaters Inn several times over the years and each experience is better than the one before! I have been fortunate to make good friends there and we try to meet at the Inn each year for a reunion.
The staff is wonderful, the grounds beautiful and alive with color, Les and Deb Hallstrom are the best hosts ever! The breakfast is always a special treat, with something new served each meal!
A stay a Admirals Quaters is like being at your home away from home!
