Rockland Harbor.

My wife and I stayed here in mid-June this year and we loved it! Super attentive and nice staff. Beautiful hotel. Breakfast and thoughtful and delicious as was the wine reception. Rooftop deck offers a great view of the harbor!

If you are looking for a boutique hotel with a very modern but warm vibe, friendly service, and well-appointed rooms in a great location, 250 Main is a nearly perfect choice. It satisfies all of the above, but didn't quite make it to five stars for our visit because their COVID precautions didn't live up to the claims in the website. That was the only letdown for an otherwise outstanding stay. We chose Rockland as our base for vacation specifically for this hotel, but lucked out with it being a good jumping off point for exploring the mid-coast. There are several good restaurants in town, such that we'd explore the coast and other small towns by day, then return to Rockland and get dinner by carry out in the evenings. As other Yelpers' pictures show, the rooms are modern and comfortable, with excellent, well-appointed bathrooms. Boxed breakfasts in the morning were supplied by the lovely local bakery Atlantic Baking Company, comprised of yogurt, fresh blueberries, and cheese with croissants on the side. Besides coffee and tea in the morning, they have an evening happy hour and water on tap in the lobby. Their website states "our team members will be wearing face coverings", so it was pretty shocking to arrive and see that this was not the case for everyone. Usually the staff in the lobby did not wear masks - except for those working later in the week - and we saw cleaning staff without masks either. My understanding is that Maine at that time was requiring masks indoors only for unvaccinated people, so hopefully they were in fact all vaccinated. But I felt misled based on the website. Setting that aside, we still had an excellent stay. Hopefully the hotel will make sure in the future that their website statements on health and safety align with their practices.

The 250 Main Hotel is the nicest hotel I've experienced in Maine. The level of customer service is incredible, Jill was super friendly, & helpful, Mackenzie and Wilson gave great recommendations on local places to grab food, & hooking up my tech to their Wi-Fi. The Hotel it's self is super fresh, with great decor, a comfortable bed, and pillows I'm thinking of buying when I get home. My hands down favorite part is the shower, a walk in with a rain shower head. We will be coming back

I couldn't recommended 250 Main Hotel more. This boutique hotel is filled with local artists work, classic books, and incredible decor. The views from the hotel are outstanding -- I recommend getting a room with a patio, but if not, hang on the rooftop deck! The staff are friendly and welcoming, with plenty of information on what to do in the surrounding area. But what I love most, is the room. It's unbelievably comfortable, from the carpet that you walk on, to the mattress and pillows. Every detail is inviting and modern.

Probably my favorite hotel ever! The location is ideal for spending time on Main Street. You can walk to The Strand, Farnsworth, contemporary Art Museum, fine dining and boutique shops. The lobby is inviting and relaxing and with a complementary wine social from 4-6 and complimentary breakfast with coffee and juice before hitting the road for home. Looking forward to our next trip back!

This was my first time in Rockland, ME. This hotel off of 250 Main St. was a great place to stay and I highly recommend it. It has a modern contemporary feel and the atmosphere is very cool. The staff are super friendly and great in giving recommendations. We arrived after 5 pm and was told the town was quiet for a Monday, but a great restaurant for seafood was across the street called Eclipse of the Pearl. The hotel had a great complimentary breakfast and I loved their roof top. Such a great place to watch the sunrise if you didn't get a room with a balcony.

We had the most amazing weekend at 250 main hotel! They were quite accommodating during Covid times, and even were able to arrange a second night for us at the same rate since we decided to stay another night once we arrived! The interior is beautiful as well as the rooms. Very comfortable and we had a view of the water which I thought was well worth the price! We really enjoyed the rooftop as well a must see ! If we had more time I would have loved to enjoy the rooftop longer with a cup of coffee and a good book. The light breakfast was refreshing and made to order coffee was great. Highly recommend and would love to come back maybe in the fall season!

See all

Cannot say enough great things about hotel and area! First let's start off with check in. We…read morearrived early and thought we would at least try and check-in, if our room was ready? Well, upon meeting Michelle at the counter, found out our room was not only ready but Raheal had set us up with the best room in the hotel, corner room on top floor, with view of Main st and ocean. Great, everything is perfect except, I messed up something that was needed at check in and I live 2 hours away! Totally my fault but was heartbroken with wife in car! Michelle went above and beyond and fixed the problem and the weekend was saved! Cannot thank her enough! We got checked in and she continued to answer my questions on places to go and give us all the local info! Went up to room and view was incredible, note to self, next time take pictures! Room was stacked with everything we needed! Stay was great and having always staying in Camden when we visit this area, I would definitely recommend looking at Rockland for a fraction of the price and definitely stay here! The breakfast in the morning was very sufficient and the local coffee that was served was amazing! Ended up buying a couple pounds to bring home! Stay here and you can't go wrong and if Michelle checks you in, ask for any suggestions and you will be steered in the right direction! We are all ready planning our next trip back! Trip

Great hotel. Reasonably priced…read more We stayed in room 415. Our check in was fast. Everyone was super friendly. Our room had a balcony overlooking the harbor. The beds were comfortable. The room had a fridge, a microwave and a keurig. The shower and toilet were separate from the sink. I loved that they had an extra small mirror that could be moved to a sitting area to do your makeup. The toiletries were nice. Shampoo, conditioner, lotion and bar soap. Breakfast was included in the price. It was a good breakfast. They even had vegetarian sausage. They had scrambled eggs, egg omelet. You could also get your eggs hard boiled. The parking was free and there was plenty of it.

Ed and Joan, the Innkeepers, made us feel very welcome and were very informative. The location is perfect for anyone taking a morning Ferry to Vinalhaven or North Haven. It is also convenient for a walk through Rockland's beautiful downtown shopping area. Most of the rooms have a view of the harbor. We chose a room without that view but found it perfect for our one night stay. The room was spotless, had a comfortable bed, plenty of drawer space and a private bathroom. There is 24 hour coffee and tea station and a welcoming front room full of reading materials, games, and other interesting items. The front porch is another perfect place to relax and view the harbor. Ed is also the chef and served a wonderful breakfast of tomato and broccoli frittata, mixed fruit, fresh baked muffins and scones. Breakfast also included Ed's very tasty cornmeal pancakes, which I topped off with genuine Maine Maple syrup! We will become regulars as we return to Vinalhaven Island each year to visit our family. And have already recommended it to other family members headed to the island!

In the week leading up to Labor Day this year, I made a point to stop by the Berry Manor Inn in…read moreRockland, Maine. Truth be told, my only knowledge of the Berry Manor Inn was when it was featured on Mike Rowe's "Dirty Jobs" TV show. Although the show had aired 10 years prior (unbeknownst to me), the inn was everything I had hoped for and more. I cannot emphasize enough about the amazing hospitality exhibited by every member of the inn's staff. They were so kind and such a pleasure to speak with. Unfortunately, in this day and age, qualities like "hospitality" and "kindness" and "courtesy" are often lost. But you can find them all within the Berry Manor Inn. I have family in the Rockland and Camden areas and will make sure the Berry Manor Inn is a regular stop for me each year when I go to visit. Even if it's just to say "hi" to the staff, I know I will leave there with a smile on my face. This place does it right from top to bottom. P.S. - and the food is AMAZING. :0)

Large blocks and weddings beware!!!! Beautiful and charming…read moreInn, but get everything in writing! We paid Berry Manor a $4,000 deposit for a wedding room block. We never signed a formal contract, and the 2 sentences of written terms we did receive did not state that our refundable deposit would be forfeited upon cancellation. Our plans changed just 12 days later, almost a year out and we immediately let them know we needed to cancel. Even after only holding the rooms for less than 2 weeks, almost a year in advance, management nevertheless refused to return the deposit based on what they maintained was their "policy"despite that cancellation policy never having been provided to us as part of our agreement and a completely different policy being stated on their website. We tried repeatedly to resolve the matter amicably, even offering that the inn keep $500 as a cancellation fee. After trying to reason with her for a few months, the owner eventually just ghosted us. Ultimately, we had to take the matter to small claims court. After hearing both sides, the court ordered Berry Manor to return $3,600 of our $4,000 deposit, plus our court costs. I also wish I had realized before booking that the inn had changed ownership. I wish i had paid closer attention to the more recent reviews. Reading them afterward, I was disappointed to find other guests describing experiences that felt familiar, particularly frustration with management's rigid reliance on "policies" and how those policies were or werent communicated. Berry Manor itself may be beautiful, and its historic reputation may be wonderful. But beautiful wallpaper, antique furniture, and a charming Maine inn cannot compensate for management that, in my experience, fails to recognize the difference between having a policy and having actually communicated and agreed upon that policy with the customer. One would think a small business in a very small town where everyone knows everyone, a business would be reasonable and accommodating, especially to its locals. If she had been we would have still recommended our out of town friends and family to stay there, i am a wedding photographer and i would have recommended it and even paid to do photoshoots here in the off season. But it was more important to be "right" and keep our money to them. My advice is quite simple: go elsewhere. Or at least get a formal contract!!! Get every cancellation and refund term in writing. Do not assume that an undisclosed policy won't later be applied to your reservation. I sincerely wish we had.

This must be the overall best place to stay in Rockland if you're looking for charm, hospitality,…read morehistory and fair prices. The inn is a five minute walk from the heart of downtown. It was purchased last year by a young couple who have a fascinating back story. She has her master's degree from MIT and was a scientist in Boston, while he was a music engineer, traveling around the country with the Red Hot Chili Peppers and other famous bands. They tired of that life, bought the inn, and run it perfectly with their adorable five year old daughter. Our room, the Island Cottage, was romantic and endlessly charming. It had a private outdoor deck and entrance overlooking the gardens, an extremely comfortable king bed, and a luxury bath. Little touches abound, such as the Ghirardelli chocolates on the nightstand, or the Google home speaker to play music. A lot of thought went into the rooms. And best of all is the included three course breakfast. I was full after the homemade yogurt and granola followed by a blueberry crisp. But I couldn't resist the veggie omelette and some of the best bacon I've had. You could stay at a generic hotel in Rockland, but you'd be missing out on a much more personalized experience. I can't imagine the difficulty in buying an inn right before COVID times, and they're carefully following all precautions. Let's support them! I'll definitely be back.

Our entire experience at this B&B was incredible from the moment we arrived to the moment we left…read more This was our first experience at a B&B and we'll certainly be back.

I highly recommend the rockers or the swinging chair on sunny wrap-around front porch. Compared to a hotel which confines you in specific places often this is a good option for a family or group of friends visiting Rockland. We watched some of the World Cup and used the mini fridge in the common room. Given the price and down home atmosphere, I don't think you'll find a ton of places like this so close to downtown. We strolled to a number of nice restaurants and cafes as well as the oceanfront boardwalk in just minutes. The house is older and has its issues - crickety floors, slanted bedroom, older windows, etc but this is not advertised as a five star place and you pay for what you get. Sandra has two older cute and friendly dogs and also allows guests to bring their dogs. She makes breakfast every morning and the two days we were there they were delicious. We also met a few of the other guests and ate family style. She also went out of her way to help secure a stroller for us and our baby. This was above and beyond what is expected of an inn keeper.

We stayed in the family suite and enjoyed our overnight stay there. The family suite has two rooms,…read moreone with a large bed and the second with a day bed. The room with the large bed is the only one with air conditioning. The large room doesn't have a TV but the room with day bed does have a very small TV. Each room has a sink as the private bathroom shared by a hallway has a tub and toilet only. The one thing I didn't expect was the mosquitoes in Maine during this time of the year. I got one of my first of many bites while using the bathroom at the Inn so just a warning to bring mosquito repellent or buy some at the Rite Aid close-by depending on the time of year you come visit. Sandi, the Innkeeper provided us with wipes from the common area since we didn't come prepared. The common area has a small TV and a computer for Internet use. I would recommend bringing a laptop for use in your room as the Wi-Fi worked great in my room. There is a microwave to warm up food and a small refrigerator to store leftover food and some drinks. We didn't really spend much time in the common area as we were either in our rooms or out and about exploring the area. The front door is kept open all day so make sure you lock your door to your room. This B&B is located within walking distance of some shops and restaurants in town including the Farnsworth Art Museum. One thing to also note is that you can get your car blocked here because of the limited amount of parking. You won't need a car to walk to the shops and museum, but in our case, we wanted to take the car out to buy some groceries and was blocked by someone else's car. We were still on West Coast time and woke up late but Sandi, our Innkeeper, kindly served us a late breakfast when we showed up in the dining room. We had a simple and satisfying breakfast of what was left for us on the table as we couldn't wake up early despite setting our alarm to wake up for breakfast. She brought coffee to us, made us fresh eggs, sausages, toasted English muffins, local berry jam, homemade Greek yogurt, granola, and fresh fruit. Sandi was a great host and definitely accommodated us at breakfast at a later time. I could tell by the people that said their goodbyes to here during our breakfast that they definitely would return on their next trip to Rockland. Sandi is a great host with her warm and friendly demeanor. She definitely made sure you felt comfortable at the B&B. If you needed her for anything, we could have reached her by her mobile phone. Sandi has some dogs and cats roaming around the B&B, so if you don't mind them, you'll enjoy your stay here in this charming B&B with a great host. We definitely felt like we were leaving the home of a friend or distant relative. Sandi is very gracious, kind, and accommodating and I would definitely return if I found myself back in Rockland.
