Kings Port Inn is just lovely. The room was decorated beautifully. Could not have asked for a better place to stay. The location was perfect. Would definitely stay here again. Also free parking and a a nice breakfast. Front desk staff were very helpful and professional. 5 stars all the way.
Great location. Nice to have free parking. Also, I loved the scent of the soaps/shampoo in the room. *There are no elevators, but there are only 2 floors.
Nice clean older hotel within walking distance to everything. Breakfast was good. Freshly made waffles if you would like them, along with toppings. Staff was friendly.
We had a great first trip to Maine and our stay at the hotel was perfect. The staff was super friendly upon arrival and gave us a map and recommended several restaurants. The deluxe king was super spacious with plenty of storage space. Bathroom was updated with a great shower! The free breakfast was just ok. It was super busy and hard to move around but the free coffee was worth it! The best part was the location! Right down town and a perfect place to stay to walk through the town!
The property fits into the location, beautifully, yet is rather modern inside. Our room was very spacious. The property is centrally located, and the staff gave great recommendations for the different types of food available close by. Will definitely stay there next time I’m in the area.
This was our fourth stay at the Kingsport Inn and as usual it did not disappoint. The Inn is always clean and well maintained and the staff cheerful and engaging. This coupled with the attractive pricing make it out go to location for our Kenmebunkport trips.

The room was clean when we arrived, however, there was no refreshed room service in the mornings. The room had a bit of a musty smell and was small and functional. The location is ideal.
The staff went above and beyond for my stay. The hotel was charming and very clean. Easy walk over the bridge to all the local shops and restaurants. Breakfast was lovely and the waffle fantastic which was included in the stay. We will definitely be back.
