Hartstone Inn - Camden

We had a lovely stay here. The inn is very close to downtown and walkable to everything you could want to do in Camden. The on-site parking had plenty of spaces. Our room, and the inn overall, was very clean. The staff was very nice and welcoming. Thebreakfast included was tasty. We weren't able to do dinner as the dining room is closed Mon and Tues. The only things thatwould say are: 1) the walls are a bit thin, our neighbors snoring and the church bell (that rings every hour on the hourthroughout the day and night) can be heard very clearly from the room we stayed in (Toscana), and 2) the staff were very hard tofind, though I'm not trying to be too harsh because we came at the end of the season and I know everyone is having staffingissues. Overall, this was a lovely little stay. I would recommend if you're a light sleeper to consider which room you pick.

I hope this isn't out of line, but this place fell far below our expectations. At the Hartstone Inn, you are greeted by a massive pothole in the driveway entryway. This lead to a back parking lot with a very steep entry but plenty of spaces. Our roomwasn't in the main building, but the Manor behind it and was advertised as a suite. It was very spacious with a comfortable kingsized bed. Clean linens. The carpet was soiled and the blinds were damaged. The bathroom was unsettling. Caulking in the showerand around the baseboard was rotting and molding. The exhaust fan had years of dust caked to it. The baseboard heat fin/slat hadfallen off and was on the floor. Sink faucet was installed crooked. To boot, wifi didn't work in that building (but it did inthe main building). Breakfast the following morning was delicious, but I did notice a chicken wing bone on the floor by my feetseemingly from the previous night's dinner. I understand there are staffing issues and this is an expensive vacation area, butit just seems the problems we encountered weren't related to that. The staff was very friendly and the location is great, butwe won't be recommending this place to anyone.

Our room at 4 Pleasant street, not main bld was ok. Be sure to ask if you are booked in main bld. if that is where you want to be or a short walk is ok. No staff was at satellite location at all. Tv worked intermittently, tipped a staff member beforedinner to fix it, she never did. Main bld, not handicap assessable. I witnessed staff member assisting a woman in wheel chairdown the stairs. Office staff in main bld. and food servers excellent. I would go back, but stay in main bld. we had breakfastsand one night dinner, food was excellent.

We stayed in Toscana on the second floor. The room was clean, comfortable and quite lovely. The staff was extremely kind and attentive and the location is walkable to everything in town. We enjoyed the daily breakfast menu and would also encourageanyone visiting Camden to make dinner reservations at the inn. The dining experience was wonderful. We had a group of 6 andeveryone loved their meal. Thank you for great Maine getaway!

We had a very nice stay here. The Inn is clean and comfortable, with great amenities, and an excellent staff. The location is perfect for exploring Camden and nearby towns. The only thing that could have made our stay better was having a room with abathroom in it instead of down the hall, but it was the only room available. We’d happily stay here again if we return toCamden.
