This was the first stop of our trip through New England and it was a great first night! Old style quaint motor inn but rooms were very clean and spacious. Front desk clerk - wish I could remember his name - was very personable and delightful to talk to. Breakfast was unbelievable! Belgian waffles made fresh by a cook! Great selections. Morning desk clerk was also wonderful. She suggested Parson’s Way to walk toward the Bush compound. You could tell both of these people took great pride in their hotel and the town. Great way to start off our trip!

Hotel's Favorite
The King's Port Inn is our favorite hotel when visiting Kennebunkport, Me. It is Family owned; a great location to wander the Kennebunkport shops and restaurants; a welcoming Staff; not pretentious; reasonably priced. It is evident that the Family invests back into the property and the rooms. My Wife asked that I include that the shower was the best she has experienced over a lifetime of travel in the US, Asia, South America and Europe. Obviously Kennebunkport is a resort destination. Over the last five years, we have found that the Hotel and Inn prices seem to have doubled making many of them seem overpriced for the value received. When traveling and touring this area, we suggest making the King's Port Inn your valued hotel destination! It will always be our first choice on our annual trips to Kennebunkport! …

What a lovely stay, a comfortable and friendly inn with history. Check in was special with a very helpful guide to the town and recommendations for sightseeing and dinner. Our room was delightful, with a good king size bed, very quiet yet close to the road. The bathroom was sublime, a jet bath and two rain shower heads, one each side. Continental breakfast was served in the restaurant and had a good selection of cereals, breads and quality teas and coffee. A lovely check out and farewell rounded off a faultless stay.

I came here on Friday and spent two nights. It was amazing. The room I had was an efficiency. It had everything. The lady I encountered at the front desk,was Miya. If I spelled her name wrong I am sorry. She had just started employment and didn't know the answer to my question. Instead of faking it she asked someone. This is the type of person that should be applauded. Thank you. I will be back. Miya your awesome. Great job! You will be in management soon

We were one of a few people staying here the night we were there. Check in was pleasant and the gentleman at the desk was helpful with dinner recommendations in the off season. The room was tastefully updated and had a pleasant nautical feel to it. Breakfast was good in the cute pub of the inn. No complaints!

Very nice hotel. Friendly staff and clean rooms. Hotel is a little out of the way from Old Port and Ogunquit Still an easy drive to get to get to either or. So pretty close to trail hiking and small town shopping as well as close to nice restaurants. Enjoy your stay.

This sweet hotel is conveniently located on the main stroll through Kennebunk. It is a beautiful location, with spacious, clean rooms and a filling breakfast. One of the best parts of this hotel is that it feel like staying with family. The staff members are friendly and so helpful. On one night we wanted to rest at the hotel and the front desk clerk offered to turn on the fire place and we sat and drank wine in the cozy warmth. The only suggestion I have for this inn is to offer coffee in the room.

We found this place by accident. Wish we had more time to enjoy. The man at the counter was so helpful. He's a native and spent time telling us where to eat, what to see, what to skip. Very knowledgeable. The rooms were very well taken care of, and beds were incredibly comfy. If we are ever back in the area we will stay again without hesitation! It is close to everything in town, so park your car and walk. Then drive the Ocean Ave loop for beautiful scenery. Spectacular town

We chose this inn because of its close proximity to the heart of Kennebunkport and it had jacuzzi tub in the room. Although slightly dated, The hotel was clean, the staff was second to non and our stay just wasn’t long enough. The breakfast was fantastic with made to order waffles done to perfection. We Highly recommend.
