Had the most wonderful experience staying and dining at the Inn by the Bandstand and Ambrose Restaurant with family. The owner and staff were very attentive and knowledgeable about the area. The rooms are updated with beautiful antiques throughout the inn, public spaces are welcoming and it’s conveniently located right in the heart of town. The food and ambiance at their onsite Ambrose Restaurant was phenomenal, every plate was delicious. Highly recommend this hidden gem. We will be back.

The Inn itself is gorgeous. The furnishings are top notch. There are fresh flower arrangements everywhere. The garden in the back is lovely. In July, there are free concerts at the bandstand. We listened from the porch. The town is nice to walk through with shops and restaurants to visit. We ate at the Ambrose Restaurant, which is affiliated with the hotel. The food was sublime! Highly recommend both the inn and the restaurant.

What a nice comfy Inn. I felt like I had went back in time. It definitely has an English flair, however it was just what my wife and I needed. We really enjoyed the morning walks from the inn to downtown and back. Only an hour from Logan and one hour to Portland Me.

Simply, FABULOUS! This beautifully furnished boutique hotel is a MUST STAY. The Ambrose Restaurant serves aTapas style menu of delicious items including a twenty year dried prosciutto board and a coffee chili rubbed pork rib that is out of this world ! The host and service was impeccable.

Room was immaculate with fantastic decor and suitable amenities. The building and grounds were nicely updated while preserving the historic charm. The innkeeper, Jamie, and his staff were impeccable with their service, craft cocktails, and truly delightful cuisine. Perfect weekend getaway, highly recommended!

The area around the Inn is amazing. Parking limited only 5 spaces. The room looked run down, dirty toilet brush, badly stained paint around the bathroom door framing, heater didn't work. For $650 a night with no breakfast included, beware this is not a B and B breakfast costs extra so it's a BWB bed without breakfast. No vanity products or tea/coffee in the room. Would not recommend staying here, poor value for money.

Roving 226 We have had the very fortunate opportunity to stay at this Inn over the past few years while we visit our parents nearby. Each time feels like we are coming home. Always a warm and friendly welcome, top notch accommodations, excellent food and beverage, and endless selection of amenities including fresh baked chocolate chip cookies. The inn and the family that runs it are top notch and have clearly mastered the art of inn keeping. PS: We just read the Roving 226 review and we have no idea where they are coming from. None of the comments were based in reality. We guess that this person will never find happiness anywhere in the world.

Terrible experience. Limited parking 4-5 spaces, no heating in the room, dirty toilet brush and stained paintwork around the door frame, no vanity or tea/coffee in the room. No offer to carry bags up two narrow stairs. BWB (bed without breakfast) paid $650 for one night, even though their website claims to be a bed and breakfast it does not include breakfast you have to pay extra. The surrounding area is beautiful, the Inn felt run down and definitely not worth the price.

My husband, son and I recently stayed for one night at the Inn by the Bandstand on our way to our son's summer camp and we are so glad we discovered this wonderful inn. A 10 in ambiance and hospitality, we were immediately greeted by the owner/innkeeper who showed us to our room and the common areas, soft indirect music, flowers, and amazing decor, You can immediately notice an exquisite attention to detail. Our room was very comfortable, spacious, and clean (only regret, no coffeemaker in the room), and service was top-notch from check-in all the way to breakfast. There is a restaurant on the property with a beautiful outdoor dining area, the flowers in this area are again amazing, they serve small plates (tapas), and all the plates we tried were from good to wonderful, a great combination of food, service, and ambiance. Breakfast was served in a cozy dining room, we had the opportunity to meet the chef, passionate about food and very creative, which we love, everything we tried was amazing. I also enjoyed the parlor room where you can have a coffee (complimentary) or sip a glass of wine. The inn is right in the middle of town, we had no time to stroll around but it would have been nice to take a walk right from the inn and explore. Overall it was a very nice experience, it was the highlight of our trip to camp this year. Thank you, Inn by the Bandstand!
