“Five Gables was just fabulous. Loved the quiet location with a beautiful bay view, the quaint house, our lovely room, front porch and chairs by an indoor fireplace for relaxing. The breakfast the next morning was delicious. Will definitely go back.”
“Loved it! We had the 3 bedroom suite, it was well set up, lots of space, immaculately put together. We needed a late check in and an early check out and Steve, made everything work for us. I highly recommend it! Definitely would stay there again!”
“My wife and I first stayed here in the 80's. For a while, we came once a year. We hadn't been for about 12 years, so we decided to go back to Boothbay to see what changed.
The town is still beautiful, but it did have a little different feel to it from when we first started going.
The hotel is in a great location, in the center of town, overlooking the harbor. It is now owned by The Lafayette Hotel Group. The full service restaurant that they used to have is now more of a bar/lounge, where you...
“Reasonably clean property but there seemed to be a lot of corners being cut. Checked in at around 10:30 pm after a long cross country flight. There were no sheets on the sofa bed or the comforter pack in either of the two rooms we booked, so we dealt with that.
Next morning went in for a shower and the shampoo was all empty - nothing at all.
Went downstairs and there were no glasses for water.
Overall it is a clean property but has a lot of quality issues in their service. And the staff...
“Spinney's is over 160 years old but they have upgraded with mini splits for air conditioning and heating. The staff were very attentive. Our room was on the second floor with nice views but you need to be able to do stairs.”
“Great place to take the family and visit the nearby beaches. Head and Popham are within 15 minutes. We were booked in a Lighthouse room that had the view of the water blocked by trees and management was very helpful switching us to a better room.”
“The inn is in an old historic building, with lots of original character. Fantastic to have parking. Great location, short walk to town. We stayed in the Victory room on the first floor. Very spacious, clean and nice bedding on comfy bed. Shower was nice and hot and good water pressure. Things to know: We had a window AC but no thermostat to control heat (fortunately we had ideal weather). We were next to a restaurant in the building so had to keep curtains closed as people were walking...
“Our only complaint is that on Tuesday morning there was no place nearby to get breakfast. The hotel had good coffee, but nothing else. There is a restaurant close by but its not open on Tuesdays. We asked the front desk about breakfast and all he said was we'll probably find something open in Damariscotta, way back by Route 1. The hotel could have supplied bagels, donuts, etc. on Tuesdays knowing the restaurant nearby was closed. We did find a diner on our way to Damariscotta but it was...
