The owners are super welcoming and the homemade breakfast is delicious. Very accomodating of dietary needs/preferences as well. The house is cool and they did a great job upgrading it to having all the modern conveniences you need while maintaining that old Victorian vibe. There's also a local grocery store across the street and restaurants within walking distance. Approximately 10 minutes to Sunday River. 10/10, would stay again!

Great location for a ski trip to Sunday River. Bethel is a quiet town that shuts down by 9pm but there were a few nice places to eat a short walk away. Inn and rooms were very well kept with lots of thoughtful touches for a great stay. Hosts were very welcoming and helpful.

Hello Siobhan. We sincerely enjoyed having you both here and we appreciate your taking the time to leave us a review. While you were here you seemed to genuinely enjoy your stay so we are very puzzled by your review. We had also assumed you enjoyed your stay based on the gratuity you very generously left in your room, and the very kind note you left in the guest book. We took all of these things to mean your time here was pleasant, but we obviously let you down in some way and for that we are very sorry. If you have time to call or send us a note we would genuinely appreciate knowing the issues you had with your stay so we can try and address them. Thank you again and we hope to see you in the future.John & Jeanette

This is the second stay here for us. The location is convenient to a few good restaurants just get there early or make a reservation as they get very busy. It’s a nice small very walkable town. There’s also a very I interesting mineral museum that is worth checking out. I really like the hosts of this B&B they are very friendly and certainly make you feel at home. They offer lovely snacks in the afternoon and the breakfasts were delicious. I’m sure we will be back again!

Thank you so much Helene! We try very hard to make our guests feel at home and we are so glad you do. We are also happy you enjoyed Jeanette's cooking and baking. We agree, the Maine Mineral and Gem Museum is well worth the time to visit, and is only two buildings away from us. Have a great summer!John & Jeanette

The house was beautiful, and very well maintained. The owners/hosts are very dedicated to keeping the house true to it's time period. The atmosphere was warm, breakfast was delicious, and hosts offered history on the house and area. We only stayed one night but Bethel has a lot to offer in the area. We would definitely stay again if in the area.

We were very happy with the friendly greeting, our comfy room, the level of attention to detail (they thought of everything!), the help with finding a nearby place for dinner and the delicious breakfast. We only stayed one night as we were traveling through town but would absolutely stay again and hopefully multiple nights next time!

We have literally stayed at every hotel in Bethel and this is our favorite. We have stayed here multiple times. Super clean and modern with the old feel. The hosts are incredible! Anything you could possibly need they can help with. Highly highly recommend the Holidae House!
