Old hotel but still clean and comfortable. Loved the view. The bathrooms were extraordinarily small, but the water pressure was great!

The location on the waterfront was delightful. The view of the bay was beautiful. We enjoyed the riverfront walking path. Hotel is dated but kept clean. Hotel staff courteous, responsive and respectful.

Great views of the bridge and Fort Knox
Lovely location overlooking the Penobscot narrows bridge and Fort Knox. We had a room right on the water with a very comfy bed but rather a lot of furniture in the room limiting space
Lady on reception not particularly welcoming.
Nowhere open to have dinner nearby so had to drive to Searsport. Managed to find a little place for coffee and muffin the the morning just over the road but no other options in Bucksport itself

The hotel was very clean despite age and I would definitely recommend it to others. View of the water and bridge and fort were a bonus
