What guests think

At Lord Camden Inn, travellers highlight its central downtown location, warm and pet-friendly service, generous complimentary breakfast, and comfortable rooms with historic character and harbor or river views, creating a charming base for exploring walkable Camden.

Parking is off site a short walk away and requires a shared gate pass, which several guests found inconvenient or slow to access, with occasional extra fees when booked through third parties. Some rooms feel dated or show wear, with isolated maintenance or cleanliness lapses, noisy street-facing balconies, and occasional AC or heating issues. For most travellers, it suits a relaxed in-town stay, provided they are comfortable with the parking setup.

Great property, easy walkable center of town location, great views of town and river from our room, wonderful breakfast, and fresh cookies and coffee/ tea available in lobby. Super clean. My one and only issue is parking. Pull up in back (spot can be tricky to get in and out of with so much auto and pedestrian traffic), run inside to get pass key, run back out, park, return pass key to desk... Huge time waste. A pass key should be given to every guest at check-in or a keycode that changes daily should be given. Once waited at desk for 15 min with another guest just to pick up parking gate pass because desk person ignored us and refused to pause her check-in with another guest and see what we needed or call for another staff member to help us. That was my only frustration with the visit. Have a better/faster gate pass key system where guests have their own key, or start using a manual key code that changes daily.

The location is great. Parking is down the street, a short walk and an extra charge if not booked directly with the hotel. The staff was friendly and the room was nice, though the sliding glass door to the balcony has smears on it and the furniture out there was dirty. The older AC unit was really loud, esp when sitting on the balcony, and kept going on and off all night. The breakfast was comparable to an average hotel breakfast. No fresh baked goods or homemade granola, and the oatmeal was dry and lumpy. Was expecting a better breakfast as this is described as an inn. Overall, the location is its best asset.

Lord Camden Inn was a great place to stay in Camden. We were able to walk to many restaurants, bars, and activities on the water. The staff was friendly and helpful. However, for the price, the hotel's rooms definitely need a renovation. The decor was very dated, which was ok, but the bathroom floor and vanity need to be replaced. The shower was disgusting with areas of black mold around the grout lines and the shower fixtures.

I wanted to love this place. And honestly if it were a two-star motel, I would have given it more stars. But the owners of this hotel claim this is a “Four Star Hotel” and have priced it accordingly. We paid over almost $1000 for three nights here in the shoulder season. But the details just aren’t there. The reality is that the rooms are outdated and poorly maintained with prefab plastic shower/bathtubs, mattresses that sag in the middle, and patio furniture with missing cushions. In our room the ceiling and a lamp were visibly water damaged (see photos). The floor, and especially the patio, were visibly dirty, and the walls were dinged up and dusty. The furniture and fixtures in the rooms desperately need an upgrade. To be fair, the staff were friendly, and the free breakfast was generous, although here too some of the details felt cheap and unappetizing. For example, some of the sliced fruit appeared brown and bruised, and on the second day, the muffins were damp and sticky on top, perhaps from being reheated in the microwave. My wife and I have stayed in hotels all over the world, including some very basic accommodations. I’m not that picky, and I'm not even looking for a four-star experience necessarily, but if you charge four-star prices, you’ve gotta actually provide that value. And the Lord Camden Inn under current ownership is falling far short. Avoid this place unless and until they invest in some major upgrades.

It was convenient and the staff is amazing, unfortunately we are not satisfied with the condition of the room. The faucet handle fell off sink: the shower didn’t work properly; there was a pair of dirty slippers under bed when we checked in: the room was very dusty. The building is old so we didn’t know what to expect. Bed had a huge lump in the middle : obvious it was an old mattress. We paid $289 a night and unfortunately we will not be back, ps the breakfast was a typical buffet but the service was amazing!

Lord Camden can do nothing to change this aspect and we would definitely stay again but perhaps find a quieter room.

Loved it! The history and architecture of the building was great, and the staff was truly wonderful. Right in the middle of a quaint idyllic coastal town so everything was easily accessible. Parking lot was only a block away and they had a nice area to load/unload off the main street. We had a "partial harbor view" room, which was really nice. Balcony outside to take it all in. Granted, the main street had a lot of traffic being end of July, so it was a bit noisy on the balcony, but inside the room with the door closed and the a.c. on, we really didn't hear anything. Breakfast was delicious too! Would definitely come back!
