Excellent!

I travel for work so I stay in a lot of hotels. The Machias River Inn is by far one of my favorites! The cleanliness is unmatched, the rooms are updated and comfortable and the river view is so nice. The hotel has a gift shop that has everything you can think of. Another benefit is the restaurant in the same parking lot. The food was phenomenal! Seriously, look no further for your stay, you will not be disappointed!

I had a great stay! Love that the river is right out the back door! I also got to see the sunrise right from my chair inside. Would love to stay during spring!

very nice stay
Thomas, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Oh my aching knees!

Property did not save a first floor room that we requested. As seniors with back and knee problems, having to lug our luggage up the stairs to a second floor room was problematic. The desk clerk seemed more interested in debating with me that I had not made the request than in trying to assist. Three people were registered. But only two sets of towels weee in the room. That required me to have to go down the stairs, trudge over to the office, pick up more towels and climb back upstairs with my bad knee. No breakfast was offered at this property and the adjacent restaurant did not open until 11:00 a.m. Checkout time was 10:30, rather early. Overall, a reasonable stay with a few hiccups. Overpriced for the area, the inconvenience and the lack of amenities.
