    We were advised to enjoy a drink and watch the sunset but skip dinner. We missed the sunset but decided to stop by for a drink and possible meal. Dining room was empty. When we asked to see a menu at 7:22 pm we were told we could only order off the smalls side of the menu. We…

    Charming Resort hotel from an older era
    Beautiful property, great views and many seats on the large porches and lawns to enjoy. Room in Philips Cottage was roomy and comfortable, rustic, especially without a tv. Loved the breakfasts, the fireplaces in the common rooms. Played tennis but didn't get to enjoy the…

    Comfortably in many ways, one is drawn back to it over and over.
    The Claremont Hotel was a complete pleasure to visit. I’ve been there three times the past few years and hope to make staying there an annual event, as many of its guests seem to. Quietly elegant but without pretension or snootiness, I was instantly comfortable. The other…

    Absolutely beautiful views
    You simply can't imagine a more perfect setting for a hotel than Clark Point, the peninsula adjacent to Southwest Harbor that the Claremont Hotel sits on. Check out the Google Images for the Claremont, and then extrapolate a little--they don't really do the hotel justice! There…

    Quintessential old Maine hotel
    A bit of a mixed bag for us at the Claremont. Though breakfast was included, we waited 45 minutes after we ordered for our food. Then, they did not bring what either of us ordered. The wait staff seemed disorganized, unfriendly and disinterested. We did not have a water view…

    any one stayed in room 111 over the kitchen? is there any issues with noise or smells?
    Hi! I'm interested in one of few outer accomdations, 1 bedrm with fireplace I believe their unit numbers may start with a W - not sure of that but wondering which one has the best view? Any with a view of the sound from within the unit? Does the unit hav gas or wood burning fireplace? Lobster pound near by? Tnx!
    We stayed in a 2 bedroom unit that had view of the sound from the master bedroom, living room and deck. There was a wood-burning fireplace in the living room, full kitchen and large deck with table for 4. There are some units right on the water, but not sure if they have gas or wood fireplaces. Beal's lobster pier is short walk away and is excellent. Thurston's lobster pound is about 15-minute drive and is also excellent.

    We are looking at reserving a premium sea view room with a King Bed. How wide is a King Bed? It usually means a six foot wide bed in the UK
    Has anyone stayed in the Phillips House Land View Suite at the Claremont Hotel in Southwest Harbor, Maine? All of the water view rooms are gone for the 2 nights we want to stay. The only other choice we have is a room in the Cole Cottage. Any opinion on that? We are leaning toward the suite to have more room, but the Cole Cottage rooms do have a partial view and a small balcony. They rent for the same price. We are going in mid June. I have tried to call the hotel and only get a recording. I need to make the reservations soon before even these 2 choices are gone. Any tips or opinions would be appreciated. Thank you.
    "The elevator must be operated by a staff person, so choose a room on the lowest floor if you wish to minimize using stairs"
    "Face the water"
    "Ask for waterfront"
    "Rooms facing the water have nice breezes and beautiful views."
    "not recommended if you plan to spend a lot of time in Acadia National Park or Bar Harbor"
