What Our Guests are Saying


Great New Years Eve

We stayed at the Thistle Inn on New Year's Eve. Cozy bar with great staff. Had a delicious 4 course meal for dinner. Stayed on the 3rd floor and we had two rooms. Both were very nice, warm, quiet, great beds! Nice walk to the harbor in the morning. All in all it was a great stay and I would highly recommend.

Fall in Boothbay

This inn is a very easy walk to downtown, just far enough away from the hustle and bustle. We had a second floor room with a beautiful 4 poster bed. The bathroom was huge, shower had lots of hot water. Everything was very clean . The restaurant is amazing!! The seafood was incredible and the cocktails and Sangria were fabulous. Our waiter, " Jersey" was attentive, friendly and very knowledgeable regarding the menu. We could not believe our good fortune, a beautiful room and a wonderful restaurant as well. We are already planning our return trip!

Perfect Stay

We spent 2 nights here in late September - it was the perfect place to stay. We enjoyed our room and spacious bathroom. The location is perfect - just a few blocks from the waterfront but very easy walking distance. Had dinner at the on premise inn both nights and it was excellent. Would definitely recommend.
