Conveniently located at the intersection of Hogan Road and Stillwater Avenue, The Country Inn at the Mall is your home away from home when visiting the Bangor area. Our independently owned 94 room hotel has been hosting guests from all walks of life since its opening in 1989. Our cozy lobby offers a "country" ambiance that most people describe as homey and comfortable - the cookies that are made fresh daily also help! The welcoming atmosphere of the lobby is appreciated by our guests who enjoy the couches by the fireplace - or if it is warm you will find them on the front porch passing the time in the rocking chairs. Our front desk staff is always friendly and courteous as we provide exceptional customer service to every guest, for every stay and our housekeeping staff prides themselves on their attention to detail. The consistent positive feedback that we receive from visitors is a testament to how much each employee cares about the hotel and our guests. We have many people who have been coming here for years and won't stay anywhere else when visiting Bangor - regardless of what interest initially brought them to the area. Whether you are a returning guest or trying us out for the first time, we appreciate your interest in our hotel and we look forward to providing you with an excellent stay at our Country Inn at the Mall.

Hotel's Favorite
Nice, clean hotel, convenient location near the airport with a mall and stores/restaurants close by.
Friendly staff, easy checkin.
Breakfast was the usual - waffles, sausage, eggs as well as cereals and fruit, all very fresh. I would definitely stay here again if in the area.

Selecting a budget hotel can be a real crapshoot. I am happy to report that my stay at The Country Inn at the Mall during Labor Day weekend 2021 was about as perfect an experience as one can hope for. The decor and furnishings throughout the building are simple, tasteful, and inviting, and the facilities are clean and well-maintained. The room itself was reasonably spacious and the bed was very comfortable. The inclusion of a coffee maker, microwave and fridge in the room was a nice touch. The 'free' breakfast was spartan (boiled eggs, cereal, packaged muffins and donuts), but is presumably being limited out of safety concerns due to the pandemic. The staff, including the cleaning team, was friendly, engaging and helpful. The location of the hotel can be considered great or awful depending on your priorities - it's essentially surrounded by strip malls (my room had a view of a Walmart), and a "country" hotel with a wraparound porch seemed a bit at odds with the surrounding environment, but that's just the way it is and not a big deal, just an amusing observation. Bottom line, The Country Inn at the Mall is a fine hotel for budget-minded travelers. Incidentally, their website showed no vacancies for the dates I wanted to stay, but I was able to book a room with no problem by calling the front desk directly, and they even gave me a better price than what was listed online!

Very convenient location. Efficient check in, room quality was fine. Room was just as describe with 2 double beds; Queens are nicer for full sized adults to share. Walls a little thin so a bit of neighbor and plumbing noise. Breakfast was restricted service due to Covid so sparing in options. This was a budget booking during a pandemic so all of these compromises are perfectly reasonable.

The room is very clean and functional. The representatives are pleasant and accommodating. My only suggestion would be to offer different eggs for the morning buffet. The eggs offered do not look that appetizing. I think many people would prefer a simple scrambled egg over what is being offered. On the other hand the homemade waffle station is great and overall offer a balanced menu.

The Country Inn is indeed, a pleasant place to stay! Just driving up to the Inn was lovely as it was decorated for Christmas! The foyer is very welcoming with its cozy Fireplace and seating. They offer a substantial morning hot/cold breakfast. However, they can improve in some key areas to ensure theirs guests comfort. Upon entering the room, I quickly found a wrapper on the floor, hair on the floor in the bathroom, the tip of an eyeliner on the bathroom counter and there was coffee or pop splashed on the wall. The beds were very clean (bonus points) but not very comfortable; they were actually a bit saggy. Pillows also weren’t plump. We had a three night stay and didn’t receive any cleaning service- garbage overflowing in our room etc…the last night there, we realized we required fresh linens (after we changed into our pj’s) and we’re told to come to the front desk to get them. Very inconvenient after an already tiring day and we were at the farthest wing of the hotel. Despite some of these inconveniences and lack of detail to the rooms appointment, it was excellent value for the price point. Other hotels in the area are close to double but are definitely more careful to detail. I would stay here again if I were paying solo for the hotel but definitely visit the neighbors down the street if travelling with friends who shared the cost.

Hello deew599, I am so sorry for the delayed response to your review!! We appreciate your feedback, and it seems that most aspects of your stay were quite enjoyable. I understand the issues you had with the cleanliness of your room, and I wish you had brought them to our attention when you checked in. That is not the standard of cleanliness for our hotel and we would have happily switched you to a different room that did not have those issues. We always try to give our guest the most pleasant experience and we apologize for not hitting that mark during your stay. I know some time has passed, however if you would like to discuss these issues further, or if you are planning another trip to the Bangor area you can reach out to me directly through email at jessie.countryinn@gmail.com I hope that you give us another chance to and will try us again when in the area. Take care, Jessie

My husband and I spent two nights at the Inn, due to a medical appointment in Bangor, and were completely satisfied. We had originally booked through Expedia but had to change by two nights to later dates due to an ice storm. We had considerable difficulty with this through Expedia, forfeiting one night because of the late cancellation. The Inn, though, was very accommodating, and we rebooked directly through them (really, the most efficient method). They even gave us the first night free because they could not change Expedia's late penalty and we were there for a medical reason. Extraordinary! The Inn representative was very friendly, patient, and helpful - in fact, all of the Inn employees were pleasant. We booked a spacious room with two comfortable double beds on the first floor. The lobby is cheerful with a fireplace complete with a toasty fire, and the breakfast area is roomy with numerous tables - no crowding. The breakfast includes a variety of cereals, breads, waffles, egg/ham "McMuffin" fixings, juices, coffee, tea, hard-boiled eggs, yogurt, and fresh fruit. The Inn is within an easy drive of numerous stores and restaurants along Stillwater Avenue and nearby Hogan Road and is actually within walking distance (in summer) to a Walmart Supercenter. It's set back well enough, though, to avoid traffic and business noise. We will no doubt be staying there again.

Overall, this was a very comfortable hotel in a convenient location, and much more affordable than other options in the area. Easy access to downtown Bangor, nearby stores and restaurants, and I-95. The free breakfast every morning offered a wide array of choices (cereal, bagels, waffles, eggs, sausage, fruit, yogurt, etc.) Staff was very friendly. Room was decent-sized, clean, and quiet. Only complaint was the air conditioning unit, which sometimes made the room feel humid. But since we were mainly only in the room at night, it was tolerable. Would definitely stay there again.

The staff were very nice and helped in every way. They still had a free breakfast as a "grab and go" style along with coffee and juices. The rooms were very clean even with room service and cleaning only three days a week.

Clean, quiet hotel at the end of the shopping area around the Bangor Mall area. We had a king sized room on the first floor. A very polite young man checked me in. The room was clean, though a little dated. Could use a new bed, but it was manageable. It did appear they are redoing the rooms in the hall we stayed in, there was someone painting the room across the hall from ours.
They serve chocolate chip cookies in the afternoon in the lobby. Thought that was a nice touch. Breakfast does come with the cost of the room. You get the standard cereal, muffins, bread, etc, plus they put out ham, sausage patties, and fried eggs.
Would definitely stay here again if ever in the Bangor area.
