Kenniston Hill Inn, Boothbay

Diane is an Inn Keeper who quickly becomes family. She goes the extra mile for every guest. Though I thought I'd booked ahead over the phone she was surprised when I arrived. No problem, she immediately got the room in order and helped me deal with the stress of my trip with a smile and warm words. Truly the best B and B I've stayed at.

My fiance and I stayed for Valentine's Day and were treated like a King and Queen. Diane was the most charming hostess, she really treated us like family! The Inn was cozy, warm and inviting. It was such a treat to feel like you were at home, but could actually relax and not worry about a thing. Diane took such good care of us. We will definitely be back in the future whenever we need a quiet, romantic get-away! Holly and Eric

Diane is absolutely a gem. She gave us great suggestions, provided wonderful atmosphere and delicious food! She feels like family! The Boothbay area is charming and September is the time to go! The Inn was lovely, the bed comfortable, clean rooms and a friendly atmosphere.

I found that having stayed in this inn before on several occasions that this new owner is a great fit as new innkeeper of Kenniston Hill and carries the warmth and personality of what a true innkeeper should. Her breakfasts were great and bountiful. The rooms were clean, warm, and becoming historically decorated. The amenities were generous and the price was very affordable for an Inn on the Coast of Maine. We will continue to return and by reading other guests comments in the guest books-we are not alone!

I stayed at Kenniston Hill Inn in July 2007. At this time, it had been under new ownership for a couple of months. I would seriously recommend staying somewhere else in Boothbay. The room and breakfast were adequate, but not worth anywhere near the mid-summer rates ($160 for a room with no view, a queen bed, stall shower, and fireplace that didn't work). My biggest problem is that the owner, for the service of mailing an item I left behind, charged an exorbitant fee to my credit card, without my authorization, and without notifying me that such a fee even existed. When I contested that the charge was unauthorized, she became hostile and accusatory. Stay elsewhere, or risk being bullied and taken advantage of.
