The lodge was decent enough and had "no vacancy" for the weekend. We only stayed one night before moving on to our next destination. We got a room with my lucky number on it though. It was close enough of a drive to downtown Kennebunk. Unfortunately, we missed out on the breakfast due to having an early start and didn't expect them to accommodate us with a little bagel or waffle. 2021 #73

It's a little dark since I didn't turn on all the lights

We recently stayed at this motel for 1 night. We drove about 30 minutes from Portland to here where we rested to get ready for another drive to Boston the following day which was only 1 hour and 30 minutes away. This lodge is near the highway which was very convenient. Our room included some cable, free WiFi and complimentary breakfast. The room was very spacious and clean. They even left us a little nice portable heater which worked very well. Also included a microwave and mini fridge in the room. I was surprised at how well kept this lodge was. Everything was displayed beautifully. The bed....was amazing! It was SOOO comfortable I wish I could take it home. We didn't get to meet the owners or people managing the lodge till the next morning before seeing them before breakfast. But when we did, they were extremely nice people and were very easy to talk to. The complimentary breakfast included waffles, cereal, yogurts, bagels, and some beverages. I'd definitely recommend this place

The reason I'm giving the Lodge four stars is because I'm reviewing it as a motel so please don't read the four stars as an indication that this place is luxurious. It is a really good motel and a great value for travelers on a budget, but it's not anything like a luxurious hotel. We recently went to Kennebunkport for a wedding and made our travel arrangements at this last minute. The cheapest place we could find that looked pretty decent from Yelp reviews was the Lodge at Kennebunk. There are a ton of motels with the word "Lodge" in the name, this review is for the one at 95 Alewive Road. We didn't expect much and was pleasantly surprised to find the hotel room extremely clean - the carpet and finishings were cheap (plastic sink, berber carpet), but everything looked very new and was cleaned very well. The maids were there every day at noon on the dot. Service was very helpful and friendly. The owner is a really nice guy & the other folks managing the desk were really nice too. Some nice benefits are a continental breakfast in the morning, onsite bike rentals for $10/day and there is a cool easy path not too far away (the bikes are not very good, but hey it's $10). Helmets are available as well for the safety conscious. Guests are given a beach parking pass for the beaches in Kennebunkport. Outside there is a game room, a small pool, and a picnic area with several gas grills and picnic tables. There is a Hannaford grocery store not too far away where you can buy some good stuff to grill. Each room has a full sized fridge, microwave, and kitchen sink. There is no separate sink in the bathroom so the kitchenette has a medicine cabinet, which is awkward, but we were fine with it. The room was enormous which made it very comfortable to eat and hang out in. There is free wi-fi, cable TV with 100+ channels, and an ipod dock/clock radio. We enjoyed hanging out in our room during the evenings. My only complaints are that there is very little light in the room and the walls are pretty thin. Otherwise, I found this place a great value if you want to visit Kennebunkport on the cheap.

Above all, the staff, particularly Charles at the front desk were all exceedingly polite and hospitable.

Well, yeah, a chain hotel, and not Hilton's top-of-the-line lodging. But we continue to have good…read moreexperiences here and think this is a good choice for a staying this area (it's in Kennebunk and is cheaper than the resorts closer to Kennebunkport). There are lots of things we appreciate: clean, fresh-smelling rooms, good AC, good blackout curtains, and good water pressure in the shower. But there's more: a very friendly front desk staff who prepare chocolate chip cookies every afternoon, a free hot breakfast, pleasant-enough pool (heated just barely by our standards) and a good fitness room. There are a few things that didn't quite match up for us: the hot breakfast is a bit hit-or-miss depending on your preferences; there are very few places to eat close by; and a trip to Kennebunkport can take 15 minutes with moderate traffic. Bottom line: we like Hampton Inns, and this seems a good one, the positives definitely outweighing the negatives, and it's fairly priced for this area during the summer months.

This hotel is your typical Hampton Inn. Some amenities are better than others…read more Check in. 3 stars. I asked for a room on the main floor when I made my reservation. Check in was 4 pm. It was almost 3:30. They said that room was not ready yet. I asked would it be ready by 4. No guarantees. Ok. Only other room ready was on the 3rd floor. Ok. I'll take that one. I paid my room by points, made a reservation by credit card and still insisted they swipe my card for $50 of incidentals. bTW, I never have incidentals. Room. 4 stars. Large plenty of extra space. Comfortable extra chaise in addition to the desk chair. Dumb position of microwave (could not read the small numbers) under the TV and the coffee machine on a pullout shelf at floor level. Ridiculous. Nice spacious bathroom with walk in shower. Thermostat allowed you to adjust for heat or cool and it worked well. Breakfast 2 stars. Canned hash and powdered scrambled eggs. Waffle iron coated with stuck on waffle. Coffee is tepid. (As is the all day lobby coffee and "hot" water). Hotel environment 4 stars. Common areas were clean. Computer for business, extensive commissary, gym and pool all available. Parking was plentiful on our stay. Not many places to replenish supplies or get a quick meal within 1/4 mile except a convenience store next door charging almost 10% higher for gas than on the Maine Turnpike.

Do not expect a full service hotel here.There is no valet, no bellman, no covered entrance, no…read moreelevator. You're going to slog your luggage to your room yourself, perhaps in the rain or snow, from the parking lot, and most likely up a flight or, heaven forbid you booked one of the rooms on the third floor, up 2 flights of stairs. There always appeared to be just one staff person at the hotel, handling the front desk. The inn is very convenient to dock square. We only drove to dinner one night, the rest of the stay we had quite nice meals within a block or so of the hotel. We stayed in the perkins suite on the second floor. Nice sized room. Roomy bathroom, good shower, decent counter space and several drawers. Felt clean and new, like it had been remodeled not long ago. You knew you were in an older hotel, but the room was clean and well kept. Comfortable seating in front of the TV. They've upgraded to a larger TV than shows on many pictures. It was easy to pull out from the wall and switch out the hotel cable feed for our own streaming device. Plenty of convenient outlets. Good sized fridge. Bed comfortable and room can be kept reasonably dark and cold. A small missed opportunity not having a few more pieces of furniture in the room. There was plenty of available space where they could have put a small desk for working, a bench at the foot of the bed, or a floor lamp for evening lighting. All of these would have not crowded the room and would have made the stay more pleasant. Continental breakfast provided is very basic. If you want to be in the midst of Kennebunkport action, it's a good place to stay. But there are many other great options in the area, and the lack of service, especially around help with check in/out is enough to prevent us from ever returning.

Very disappointed!! This place has so much potential? Either have a place or don't? DON'T do it…read morehalf way! The room was lovely and clean but only after I got upgraded to the bigger room. The first room was claustrophobic ( very small ) We didn't eat there but that was just because of the mindset created by the lack of cleanliness throughout the rest of the building! I would bet they haven't vacuumed or swept in a month? We stayed only after she upgraded our room but boy was it sad! Surprisingly there were a few other guests that I guess were ok?? Who knows, don't stay here unless the rest are full! So much potential???
