Waterville Holidays from £1,236

We did not have a wonderful experience here. The room was not very clean, including a large sticky spot on the carpet, broken furnishings, cobwebs, and hair in the bathroom when we arrived. It was overall a very dated and not well-maintained room.The Northern Lights Cafe was the only on-site dining available and was very disappointing- we only made that mistake once. We also had to ask multiple times to try to get hot water to our room, which was never fully resolved. Over the course of four days, we never had a complete day with hot water. There are some nice aspects of the hotel, including nightly make-your-own-smores, some fun family games set up in common areas, a nice-looking reception area, and a heated pool. We really enjoyed the area surrounding the hotel for hiking and being outdoors. The people were mostly friendly and tried to be helpful, especially Emmit from maintenance. I wish we could say we loved it, but in the words of my teenager- we just had to stick it out and get through it.

I was pleasantly surprised by how nice the cabin was! I read the positive reviews and felt comfortable staying there but didn’t realize how spacious and homey the cabin would feel! The beds were super comfortable, having a washer and dryer in the cabin was a pleasant surprise, and the quietness of the entire resort area was fantastic. Super spread out. Renting canoes, kayaks, and paddle boards was really easy. The cabin got a little warm during the day but the three box fans were a big help.

Loved the gondola to the top of the mountain

This was an excellent stay. It was the right amount of modern. The room was very clean, very spacious. The bathroom was honestly immaculate. The shower? UGH, I am making it my focus to own the same type of shower head because that was magic on my sore back. And, it was so roomy, two people could fit easily and still stay warm and comfortable. Free coffee with all the fixings and breakfast, a big bonus. Restaurants are close by, grocery stores and minute-marts as well. Also a big bonus. The only VERY minor constructive criticism we had was the pool. The water was much chillier than expected. The pool room was very well heated. And conveniently, there was a rinse shower station and towels everywhere to keep us warm and dry afterwards. But yeah… that water was definitely cold. We still enjoyed ourselves after we acclimated to the temperature, but still, it’s the principle. Overall, 9.8/10. My husband and I did officially decide to stay at Hampton Inns from now on. They’re just right when it comes to hotels.

It was great! Staff was amazing
