See all

Check-In: The check-in process was easy enough. The tricky part was the parking situation, which was a block away. We had to park in the back on the loading zone, drop off our stuff, and then park our car. The loading zone was tiny and next to a busy ice cream stand, so you'll need to be extra cautious when going in and out of there since there are a lot of blind spots and oncoming traffic may miss you! Room: The room itself was very clean, despite it clearly being in an older/historic building. The only complaint I have is that the room had that musty smell (probably due to the humidity of the area being so close to the harbor). Amenities: The gym was very clean, and had everything I was looking for during my trip! A couple cardio machines and free weights were available for use. Water bottles were complimentary! Breakfast: There was a complimentary hotel breakfast in the mornings. I was pleasantly surprised at how good the selection was for a tiny hotel! The food was also good! read more

We enjoyed our stay at the Lord Camden Inn, exploring Camden and the surrounding area. The best parts of the Inn were the location (right in tbe center of town across from the harbor) and the friendly, attentive service. We had our dog with us and she was warmly welcomed, too (there was a pet fee). The room was spacious and clean. We did not particularly enjoy the breakfast, which although included, just wasn't great, and served in a stuffy room. read more

If you want a great location, you can't beat this place. We could walk everywhere and could see a bit of water from our balcony. Check in was a bit chaotic as you have to go to the back of the building where there are 2 spots you can temporarily park, but the ice cream store next door was busy and cars were everywhere. After you check in, you move your car up the street to a private lot. The Inn is old but has lots of character. Our room was a decent size, the bed was comfortable as were the pillows. The shower had a great shower head, but the tub was a bit slippery. My biggest complaint is the A/C unit. It ran so loud, and wasn't really spewing out cold air. I slept horribly as the sound is crazy loud. Super disappointing for what we paid for the room. Breakfast was a typical breakfast served in hotels. read more

We stayed here for one night and really enjoyed our stay. The location is perfect--everything is within walking distance. Although older, the hotel has a cozy, homey feel. We enjoyed our harborview room. It was fun to watch the harbor, Mt. Battie, and the street activity from our window. The staff is very kind and attentive, and parking was pretty easy once they explained it. The warm breakfast buffet was excellent, offering a wide variety of options...including a fun blueberry coffee. read more

Great location, people could not be any nicer. Great breakfast buffet. The building like most in Camden is old. Ceiling needs patching and painting in room 101. We stayed here a couple of weeks ago n another room which was better kept. One good thing is the bathroom tile floor is heated. Really nice when it's cold like it is today. Fireplace in the room is handy. read more

We stayed one night Snowbowl weekend. Hotel is in a great location, Denise was helpful in recommending places for take out. Although we ended up at Jack's, which was good, but not on her list. If we didn't have our dog (great that they allow dogs but you can't leave them in the room alone) we would have have eaten there.... It was lively.Breakfast was abudent - something for everyone. Heather did a terrific job. My only negative remark is the coffee could have been hotter and stronger. I would return the rooms are clean and the bathroom floors have radiate heat! read more

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. It is right in the heart of town so it made it easy to walk to local shops, restaurants and breweries. The decor felt like quintessential Maine. The staff is extremely friendly. Plus we loved the 'extras' offered during our stay - complimentary Prosecco at a sister hotel down the road, complimentary breakfast, flavored water, and homemade chocolate chip cookies (our favorite). read more

Lord Camden Inn is one of three hotels (in the Bay View Group. Camden Harbour Hotel and 16 Bay View) and in my opinion, is the best value of the three. The first Photo was taken from our balcony which faced the street. It was enjoyable to sit on our balcony with our included breakfast (bagged and delivered to our room due to covid) and people watch on the street below with this pretty partial ocean view. We paid just over $200 for a Saturday night, compared to rooms at the other hotels going for $100 - $300 more. The 3 minute stroll to the waterfront and restaurants is why you go to Camden. Even if you don't decide to stay here, you should check it out. read more

We have stayed at LCI several times and have never been disappointed They are extremely pet friendly and the staff always goes above and beyond to make us feel welcomed Very comfortable rooms and great location read more

Six stars. STAFF. The staff are so annoyingly nice, they make Ned Flanders and golden retrievers look like jerks. LOCATION. It's not right on the water, but close enough. The location is in the heart of Camden, yet quiet, with large private balconies overlooking the main street to the east and smokestack and rushing brook to the west. Lots of restaurants and bars a very short walk away including Marriner's, Waterfront, Peter Ott's, and Francine's. (See my reviews for Cuzzy's, Vintage Room, Boynton, 40 Paper, and Smokestack) PARKING. A free overnight parking lot (key card required that you must pick up and return at lobby) a few hundred feet away, plus a two hour lot across the street. LOBBY. Very homey w fireplace, with free cookies or fruit, coffees, teas, water, hot chocolate and (not as tasty) newspapers. ROOMS. Attractive rooms, super comfortable beds, huge balconies, great amenities (microwave, quiet fridge, Keurig), and they included a very useful channel guide for the flatscreen. BREAKFAST. Couldn't be better, despite a lack of donuts or danishes. Attractive, uncramped dining room separated from lobby. Made to order waffles, with various syrups and toppings, scrambled eggs, quiche, sausage, bacon, toast, bagels, granola, cereal, milk, yogurt, plus four types of juices, and four types of coffee. I took four types of poops. WORKOUT ROOM. Clamdigger please. read more

Lord Camden Inn - Camden. It's a boy! - Hotels Near Me - Camden, Maine

Hotel was nice - staff was courteous and helpful. The room was nice and had a nice sitting area with a fireplace. Only con: it was hot when we visited and the ac is in the area with the fireplace so it was stuffy while we slept. It was in a convenient location and the beds were nice and comfy. Would return if we returned to Camden. read more

Nice and relaxing place! This is an old building transformed into a hotel. I love the location and we had a beautiful room with a step-up sitting room, with a fireplace and our own belcony overlooking the river. We really enjoyed ourselves. Now one of the neat things was that we stayed on the third floor and some people claim, the 3rd floor is haunted :)...well, we never saw or heard anything, but it was a neat story to tell our kids! Their breakfast is served on the 2nd floor and we stopped by, but we had to leave, so we didn't get a chance to check that out. The front desk were very nice and accommodating. Our room was spacious and clean and I love the products they chose for the bathroom and shower needs, very clean and light feeling, unfortunately I'm drawing a blank on the product name, but I did see it mentioned in another persons review. And, they are dog friendly here as well. Definitely a place we would stay at again! read more

Lord Camden Inn - SSHHHH! Quite morning, just relaxing and keeping warm by our fireplace in our room!! This place is great! - Hotels Near Me - Camden, Maine

This is a wonderful hotel, bed and breakfast, boutique type hotel located right downtown. Walking distance to everythAng. We had a room on the river-side, and it was very quiet. Really, really nice. They do good attention to details here. The towels are really nice. I am told that the river rooms are substantially quieter than the street rooms. In the summer-time; I am inclined to believe that. The Goods: Super pet friendly. They treated my dog like royalty. All of the Staff were exceptional. Extremely helpful, friendly, and personable. In particular: Ms. Samara checked us in and went above and beyond. Was super nice across the board. The Bad: There is only one bad, and that is why this place gets a 4-star rating vice 5-star. The TVs in the room were ancient pieces of history. Not High Definition. They were pretty small too. HDTVs are so frickin' cheap right now. And this hotel is not cheap. For the buck per night, they can do better. ***Next off-season my recommendation: book the existing TVs you've got; and spend a couple grand (that's about what it would cost for the whole building / all the rooms, best guess) and get some nice HDTVs. I think guests would be much happier. read more

We stay at the Lord Camden Inn every time we are here because it never disappoints and is the most beautiful place to stay in Camden, right on the street. Best part might be the complimentary breakfast...delicious and all you can eat. The rooms? Clean and stunning. Beautiful bed linens and everything you could want in a place to stay. We love it here! read more

Great location! Friendly and attentive staff. We had an issue with the air conditioner and a staff member was in the room in less than 5-minutes. The included breakfast was great. Nice rooms, comfortable bedding, great water pressure in the shower. I would happily stay there again. read more

Another great experience at the Lord Camden Inn in the heart of Camden. Spotless rooms, accommodating staff, very good breakfast included. Great harbor views from third and fourth floors with frontage on US Route 1, or choose a village view on the back of the hotel for a quieter room without the 5 am sunrise. read more

Stunning hotel and attentive staff! We've been staying at a lot of hotels and inns this vacation throughout Maine and Canada, and this by far was our favorite. Camden is a beautiful little town and the Lord Camden is the perfect home base to explore. read more

It's decent. Some rooms have nice views of the Harbor and it's not TOTALLY overpriced. But they charge for parking. Not only that but their lot is down the street. Don't tell anyone, but unless it's the dead of winter you can park overnight on the street in Camden right in front of the hotel. Ssh... Charging for hotel parking in Camden is ridiculous. read more

The rooms are nice, a slight smell to them but I guess it is to be expected considering the number of dogs at the hotel. But overall the room and the location is good given the winter time rate. My issue is being blindsided with a $15 parking charge due at check-in. To make matters worse the clerk at the front desk argued profusely with me that it was stated on the booking website there was a parking charge. I went back to the booking website and there was no mention of a parking fee. On their website it mentioned free parking. $15 for parking... what is this Boston? It's Camden, and there is no snow on the roads. Loose the unnecessary fees. I suppose it fits their overall motives - they will try to sell you Lord Camden branded mugs and other kick-knacks as well. Keep it classy Camden. read more

Older inn that needs TLC to the rooms. Very comfortable beds. Friendly staff who are responsive to issues...sink plug was disconnected and didn't work. Bathroom needs up dating and balcony furniture should be replaced. Still operating under Covid so rooms are not made up daily. Leave towels and list needs on card outside room. Breakfast is pre wrapped or packaged. Eggs, sausage, cheese on croissant each morning. Good to have refrigerator, microwave, and coffee maker in room. Great location, central to everything in Camden. Parking system needs refinement...key required to park in lot up the street, then key must be returned to hotel after parking. read more

Friendly staff, great location and reasonable rate. The rooms are large and clean. Highly recommend.

We came with a Groupon deal for a 2-night stay and loved it. It was especially nice that our dog was able to join us, too! This was a first and she did well and we had no problem leaving her for short periods of time for our meals out. Though they didn't set us up with the pet amenities, we made do and didn't bother making a fuss of it. We stayed in a River View room and it was clean and stocked with nice amenities (Keurig, balcony, a 32" flat screen tv). We were frustrated with the lack of convenient electrical outlets for our phones but again, made do. Being that it was 20 degrees outside, we did not take advantage of the balcony and the view of the river felt more like a large stream. The heat is not central but a window unit which made temperature regulation and sound a bit annoying but just a minor detail (in case you find that helpful). The bed was comfortable and I loved the sheets/comforter - felt so luxurious! I do wish the room size was bigger, especially since it limited the space for our pup so keep that in mind if you're bringing yours along! Staff were friendly and I loved the cookies/coffee reception in the afternoon/evening. Breakfast was a little underwhelming though I agree with everyone that the homemade granola was tasty. Eggs are made to order and they have a waffle maker. I guess I was hoping for some type of protein in the morning... Despite going in March, the town of Camden was still welcoming, though empty. LCI is located conveniently in the center of town and everything was accessible by foot. Thanks for such a great stay! read more

We were off-season guests so the price for a single King was great. The woman at reception was courteous, the room was clean and well appointed, and the decor was lovely (very limited tacky, generic hotel stuff). Breakfast was ample and hot. Overall quite charming for an overnight and it's directly on Main Street so moving around was easy. read more

Thanks Lord Camden Inn! We had a perfect romantic getaway in Camden. -Staff was friendly and helpful -Room was clean and cozy (thanks for the toilet paper rosettes!!) -Breakfast was delicious- lots of coffee (love the Bad Dog) and homemade granola mm mmm mmm! -Great central location for shopping, restaurants and bars -Cute little gym room -Gorgeous view of the harbor read more

We came to visit a client in Camden, ME and found most of the area hotels full. No worries. Fellow helpers steered me to this establishment, where the room was spotless, staff very friendly, and the king bed was very comfortable. We walked across the street for a beautiful evening overlooking the Bay. Walked to dinner, but that is another review. Stay at the Lord Camden Inn! You will be happy you did. read more

Perfectly good stay for 3 nights in early October. Quiet, clean, fairly priced, convenient and the staff seemed to take Covid precautions seriously. Grab and go breakfast each morning was an added bonus. Grab and Go breakfast was a Covid precaution. You ordered breakfast the night before and your breakfast was packed up and ready at the requested time in the morning. They also handled my gluten allergy. Thank you for the pleasant experience. read more

4/12/19 stayed on 4th floor overlooking The Harbor and town. Great views! Room very comfortable and clean. Housekeeper friendly and left Bedtime chocolates.

On a whim, my wife and I decided to hop in the car and head up the Maine coast on Labor Day weekend -- with the dog. We took our chances with lodging, knowing that it was a busy travel weekend and most places aren't terribly pet friendly. When we drove into Camden, we spotted the Lord Camden Inn right away. I doubted that they accepted pets, but we decided to check it out anyway. Boy, were we surprised! The young man at the front desk was very friendly, and immediately informed us of two available lodging options, both of which were dog friendly. We were able to check in right away, and found the room to be clean, updated, and inviting. We had a small balcony overlooking the main street, which proved to be the only real drawback of a room on the front of the hotel -- the weather was balmy, and we had hoped to leave our sliding door open through the night, but the street noise (loud voices leaving the bars for the evening, large trucks rumbling through town) proved to be too much. We were happy to have (good) coffee in our room, and enjoyed the complimentary breakfast, which included homemade granola. Had we required dining recommendations, I have no doubt that the front desk attendant could have provided some. Overall, this was a great experience. The town of Camden appears to be very dog-friendly, which is a huge plus in my mind. The only drawback was the price, which wasn't excessive for a king room with partial water view on Labor Day weekend in a tourist town, but was still a bit more than we expected to pay at the last minute. read more

Quite a lovely place! Desk person Tanner gave us phenomenal customer service! We loved the hotel, great view from our room, right on the Main Street so we could go right out for shopping, restaurants, etc. we had brought bicycles with us and there was no problem leaving them (locked) on our bike rack in the parking lot up the street. Highly recommend this hotel - even tho a bit pricey it worked for us! read more

This is a great place to stay in Camden. It's clean some updated rooms like brand spanning new and they are extremely accommodating. The staff is terrific. They are pet friendly so if you have allergies be careful. I booked a room looking over water but changed it based in a musty smell coming from the bricks on one wall. My new room had no view but was excellent. It had a fireplace new beautiful bath. It was excellent. Great bed amenities. Coffee maker mini fridge etc. so clean. Loved it. Great location right downtown Camden. read more

This is a very nice hotel and is located right above the shops giving you plenty to do. the young staff were very very nice. Gavin, Zak, and another young girl who i can't remember the name of were always checking up on us, asking us about our day, giving us suggestions on where to go, offered valet parking and to take our bags to and from the room.They were honestly the nicest hotel staff i've ever met in my entire life (and i stay at hotels quite often). I stayed here for 5 days and they were very accommodating. the one girl i mentioned earlier unlocked the breakfast room for us so me and the 8 other people i was with could use the tables to play cards. There are also beautiful views from the balcony. The hotel definitely made my trip to camden a great experience :-) read more

A great weekend getaway! Super easy, welcoming and friendly check-in, delicious refreshments and cookies upon arrival. Room clean, welcoming, and spacious!

Charming place. Great service, perfect location, clean, very comfortable beds...softest sheets ever. We will definitely return.

Lovely hotel. Great location in the center of town. The rooms were very nice. Check in was friendly and breakfast was delicious.

So last week was my 3 year wedding anniversary and my birthday... my husband and I wanted to road trip trough coastal Maine and do some leaf peeping! On our journey we stopped in Camden, Me... very quaint harbor town. We booked a night at the lord camden inn was very happy we did! The room was beautiful! we had a little stream right outside our window that was surrounded by a white picket fence! It was picture perfect! The bed was so comfy.. it was the first time i didn't miss my own bed. Our stay included breakfast that was great... homemade scones, waffles, eggs, cereal, juices, and flavored coffees. The location was great too, it was right in the middle of town on "main" street in maine on the costal highway. If you're ever in the area you must make a stop and rest up and the lord camden inn. read more

Stayed here while we were in town to visit family that live in a somewhat cramped 200-year-old farm house and WOW was that a good decision! Our top floor room had a balcony overlooking the harbor, a fantastically comfy bed, access to free WiFi (! especially helpful since Sprint apparently doesn't cover most of Maine!), and Green Mountain coffee in the rooms! It really was the small touches that made this Inn stand up favorably to the two hotels we'd stayed in in Boston and the lovely BnB in Portland, ME. The fact that the inroom coffee maker came with teas, coffee, good decaf and even a Chai Latte mix, that they provide really wonderful soaps and even a dark towel labeled "make up" so you don't have to wipe foundation all over the nice white linens, that there were qtips in the room (i know, it's quirky, but that matters to me)...all of those little things really add up to a great experience. The breakfast the next morning was surprisingly good. They had eggs, bacon, breads, cereals, a selection of locally owned coffees, juice, a waffle maker and fruit. Plus some granola bars and yogurt that we grabbed for snacks for later in the day. Lovely! There was a kerfufle when we checked out because we weren't getting the booked-online rate we were quoted, but the front desk took care of it in less than 5 minutes and we walked out very happy. read more

Stayed 2 nights with spouse at this lovely little hotel. The hotel is very nicely located in downtown Camden , Me. We had a partial harbor view on the 3rd floor, very nice, very clean and functional with a comfortable bed. We thoroughly enjoyed the complimentary breakfast with pasties, muffins, breakfast meats and eggs. The staff was friendly, professional, and competent. Denise, who checked us in , always helpful and so informative when answering our questions about the local area, Chelsea, who worked the front desk on day 2 of our stay and again when checking out was so cheerful, polite and ever so helpful with our baggage. In summation, next time up that way, The Lord Camden Inn is where we will stay. read more
