Guest Reviews
- Gail (9/5): We had a good time. - The French toast and bacon was good Also Danish was good.
- Everett (8/5): We loved it and planning another stay when their golf course opens up. - Majestic older hotel. Location was just a few blocks from where we were attending a family weekend at our granddaughter’s school. The Mountain View was beautiful! Walking up stairs with luggage. We will request a first floor room next time.
- Scott (9/5): - Enjoyed this nostalgic building in the serene setting. Wonderful staff and Gen X breakfast! Due to age of building and time of year, a faint odor of mustiness occasionally arose. Some of the doors in common areas close too quickly. The main door to the front desk had cracks in the glass where if one were to try to stop the door from closing a serious injury was potential.
- Andreas (1/5): - Wir reservierten eine Suite Superior. Im Zimmer schmeckte es nach Gas. Wir verlangten ein anderes Zimmer. Schlussendlich bekamen wir ein normales Zimmer. Als ich nach der Preisreduktion fragte ( normales Zimmer ) sagte man mir es sei die Aussicht besser. Vor unserem Zimmer war ein Dach...das Personal war wirklich schlecht. Schade.
- Paul (10/5): -
- CGWifeyME (6/5): Just eh … - We paid $244 for one night, 2 queen beds and a pull out couch. 2 adults and 3 children so we needed to use the pullout couch. My 11 year old can normally sleep anywhere but he was complaining about how uncomfortable it was. The bar and springs were felt through the very thin mattress. I would Recommend to replace the mattress but the whole couch was sagging and in need of replacement. He ended up just sleeping on the floor with some of the couch cushions. We went down for breakfast at 7am (they told us 7-10) and it wasn’t ready yet. We had to wait about 15 minutes. Not a huge deal but then we started to eat and the hostess staff came around and took our utensils and napkins and said we needed to use the plastic today (all the tables were set already)….it was odd. Then we went to swim in the pool at 9 (hours 9a-8p) and it was still covered. I called The desk and was told maintenance wasn’t coming until 10am to open it. So I had Some disappointed kids. We did go back at 10 and he was just arriving so again had to wait 15/20 mins while he opened the pool. I understand That it’s the end of their busy ski season but I feel like they should still care about the ate season service too. Not sure if we will come back.
- Wendy (7/5): -
- Stacie (10/5): - Outdoor pool and sauna Restaurant seemed understaffed. Took forever for our server to come over and then she really never came back. She seemed like she didn’t know what she was doing. Drinks and food took a long time to come out.
- Nadine (9/5): Spacious rooms and friendly staff! - Room was spacious, comfortable and clean. Staff was very helpful & friendly.
- Diana (7/5): Na - Na Na
- Pierce (7/5): Would stay again - Loved the fireplace in the room. The bed was very comfortable. The staff and facilities were nice. The room was freezing when we arrived and took hours to warm up. The fireplace was in a position that made it difficult to see/warm up with as it's away from the sitting/sleeping areas.
- Vladimir (10/5): -
- Johanna (9/5): -
- Bob (3/5): My stay was disappointing. - Food in the restaurant was good Shower drain was clogged; first room key didn't work, boards on the ramp were loose and air conditioning was poor.
- Daniel (10/5): -
- Lisa (7/5): - Cute hotel with nice location Had a lot of trouble with WIFI and Tv
- anne (8/5): Overall good value, nice staff, comfortable room - It was pet friendly and we had a nice cozy fireplace in the room! The outside pool was too cold for swimming in winter, it used to be kept hotter.The breakfast was included, cannot complain but was sort of lame continental grab and go
- Andrew (8/5): -
- Expedition818303 (8/5): Very family oriented. Lots of children in the tavern and the pool facility. Over crowded sauna as one was out of order. - Our king bed was clean and comfortable. We did not have a full shower soap dispenser. My husband used shampoo instead. Front desk staff exceedingly helpful.
- Bill (6/5): Close to Sunday River and Dog Friendly, but… - The west wing was dog friendly. Kind of a cool looking hotel. Fitness equipment was adequate and swim out pool looked kind of neat. Pool/fitness room not connected to main room. Unless u want to venture out into sub arctic wind chill after swim it needs to be connected. Christmas dinner was a little overrated as the food was a little mid. People upstairs from us were like elephants til 10:30. Walls are thin and doors are creaky. Resort fee?
- 879thort (10/5): Old New England Charm - Beautiful old buildings brimming with old time New England character and charm. The layout and structural elements show their age, even the room keys are clearly older than my 35 year old self. The inn has just about all of the modern amenities one would expect, perhaps somewhat awkwardly retrofitted into its old bones. While there are some aspects of this that may bother people looking for a more standard chain hotel experience, if you're willing to overlook some minor issues with finish or whining vent fans, the fascinating historical elements of the inn more than make up for it. In terms of the room itself, the bed was comfortable and the room/bathroom were clean. The vent fan had a bit of a whine to it, and outside noise was somewhat noticeable but not overtly so. Occasional bubbling sounds coming from the pipes, but again not to the extent of annoyance. The stay itself was enjoyable but I particularly had fun wandering around the lobby and common areas, soaking up the early 1900s atmosphere. Overall we had a very pleasant experience and would recommend The Bethel to anyone with an appreciation for old buildings and history.
- sarayS8010MG (10/5): Thanksgiving - This was our first time staying at the Bethel Inn and we had a lovely visit. We enjoyed a walk along the golf course, dinner in the Tavern, the heated outdoor pool, the fitness center and the sauna. The staff was friendly and very helpful. We'll be back soon.
- Neha (7/5): Clean and spacious rooms, a comfortable stay overall, and very helpful staff who kindly allowed a late check-out. - Clean, spacious rooms and helpful staff who kindly allowed a late check-out. The only downside was that it felt a bit expensive compared to the amenities maybe because we booked on the same day.
- Julie (8/5): Would stay there again. - Built in 1913….loved the history. Heated pool outside delightful. Millbrook Tavern-good service for dinner and food delicious. No light or lamp near couch and fireplace for cozy up reading. Would like magnifying mirror in bathroom for makeup
- 155SusanS155 (10/5): Old New England. - Nice place old New England. Dinner very good. Firepit area nice. Midday cookies and cider great. No elevators so plan stairs.
- Holly (9/5): - Great look , very comfortable Ask for 1st floor if you can't make stairs
- Trivian (3/5): Disappointing for an expensive "short" night stay. - The location was fine. The property was interesting. Our room had a peculiar odor, maybe chemical? The air conditioning unit controller was missing, I called the front desk and they said maintenance would be over to check it out. No one ever came. We slept with the windows open, thankfully late night was quiet. There was hair stuck to the shower wall. I talked to the desk clerk when we checked out, and she was very apologetic saying "this should never happen". But that was it.
- Julio (8/5): -
- Bonnie (8/5): -
- Voyage07486042701 (4/5): A Faded Gem in Need of Revival - Simply sad. The old gray girl just ain't what she used to be. The Bethel Inn once embodied the charm and warmth of a small-town Maine retreat. Faded magazine and newspaper clippings still hang in the corridors, whispering stories of a time when service was impeccable and the atmosphere inviting. But today, those memories feel more like ghosts than legacy. Pulling up, the main building still holds a hint of its former charm. But up close, the facade tells a different story—peeling paint, decaying wood, and haphazard mechanical interventions. The lobby is dark, dusty, and musty, though the desk clerk was a bright spot: warm, welcoming, and genuinely lovely. Breakfast was a disappointment—stale grocery store pastries, shrink-wrapped in a basket, and only decaf coffee available. No other food options nearby, save for a vending machine. Our room was musty, though airing it out helped. The decor felt like a corporate hotel makeover from the 1990s—uninspired and mismatched with the Inn’s historic bones. Flat pillows, a comfy bed, and overall cleanliness couldn’t mask the decades of wear: stained carpets, tired upholstery, a splotchy ceiling, and a fireplace that didn’t seem safe to use. The suite’s furniture layout was awkward at best. This place has the bones and the history to be a must-stay destination. But it’s going to take real love, passion, and investment to bring it back. I truly hope the Bethel Inn finds its way again—for the sake of the town and all who once cherished it.
- Keith (3/5): Not worth the money - Great Restaurant My check in process was met by a young woman sitting in a office view a computer screen, she turn her head to look at me standing at the check in counter, than looked away without any communication. Thinking she was busy, I waited 3 minutes before asking her if I was at the right place to check in. She stood up, walked towards me and stood at the counter again saying nothing to me, no hello, no greeting, no eye contact, just a sour look on her face. Again, I asked if this is were I should check in. Finally she asked for my name. Shortly after handed me the key to the room, with a direction to the build I would be staying in. She never said nothing more, no thank you, no have a nice evening, no info about your dining below. After getting into my room, we discovered the room was very hot inside, we could get the AC to work and one of the curtain came off the curtain rod, prevent us from closing the curtain to block car lights. NOT a great interaction with your staff, and room conditions was definitely lacking comfort. The ONLY nice experience was the repair man that try to fixed the issues in the room.
- Teresa (2/5): - Very dirty, funky smell, mice poison set around property. Very negative experience. Traveled with friends was placed at separate ends of inn. Had noise from driveway, next door and above us. Will never stay again.
- Joseph (6/5): - We were given a room with a broken tv and twin double beds even though we reserved a king. Hotel staff said there were none of those left. They stated it’s a common thing when online reservations are made. Places like hotel.com and Travelocity don’t check they said.
- Brett (6/5): - Old hotel that needs a renovation
- Melissa (4/5): - I was disappointed to learn on check out that was a $50 fee for my dog. That was not indicated anywhere ahead of time.
- Trail34742758678 (10/5): Above and beyond - Had read a few reviews about other peoples experiences at this resort, not all that flattering. It is unfortunate that some people experiencing a bad hair day can be allowed to use this forum to trash a business and the people who work there . The golf course was fun and the people there were very helpful, courteous and at times engaging and funny. Yes the course had a few issues with tee boxes and burnt fairways but what golf courses in Maine haven't had these issues this year. Thumbs up to the Bethel Inn and the people working there to provide a fun and memorable experience. WE'LL BE BACK
- Carole (8/5): LOVELY HISTORICAL HOTEL THAT NEEDS SOME ''TLC'' - STILL IT IS AN ENJOYABLE RESORT! - To begin, let me say that I really admire individuals or companies that have the courage to own and operate ''historic hotels''. These are, by far, where we love to stay: they have a past, a present and hopefully a future. However, those older properties are a challenge and The Bethel Resort & Suites is a good example. Here is what we liked. 1) The welcoming from the lady at the front desk, who was very nice. 2) Our first room had two single beds; we wanted a double bed so we were upgraded to room 103 which was a suite, with two double beds, two televisions with numerous channels, a fireplace, a balcony, a full bathroom, a refrigerator, a coffee machine and more. 3) The parking is easy and free, right in front of the resort. 4) The area feels very safe and has a good location in the town. 5) There is a restaurant and a bar that offer 3 meals a day. 6) There are many brochures in the lobby that give information as to what to see and do in the area. 7) The hotel has numerous old menus and old pictures that inform about the journey of The Bethel Resort & Suites from 1913 to 2025. 8) Dogs are accepted and the resort provides at Fido House, bags for furry friends. 9) The WI-FI was excellent. 10) Overall, the staff was friendly and helpful. The property is very impressive but it needs some TLC; the paint is peeling in many places, some areas outdoor are covered by dead flies, many plants/flowers plus the grounds are in somewhat poor condition. There is one restaurant that serves food but we were surprised that on the second night, after ordering one piece of lemon cake that was not listed on the menu, we were charged $16.00 plus tax, plus tip; that seems very high. Also on the second morning, for breakfast, the server wanted us to sit beside a group of very noisy young men; when we asked to sit a little further, she made a comment that she would have to walk more and literally, threw the menus on our table. Then we got our coffee in a paper cup at the cost of $3.50 plus tax, plus tip. Then we had to ask her for a glass of water, then for sugar and cream and finally for a spoon for the yogurt. We travel to get a little bit of luxury with good service; this was not the case. There is a pool which you can enter from indoor stairs and it is supposed to be heated; if it is, the water must be set at around 65 degrees Fahrenheit as it was very cold; too chilly for most swimmers. Also, the description on Booking.com mentions that "each room includes a kitchenette, dining area..." and this is incorrect.
- Katelyn (10/5): - We absolutely loved almost everything about our stay! We loved the historic, boutique feel of the hotel, the beautiful registration area, the fitness center, the tavern, the room, the hallways even with the old pictures, the beautiful setting, the cute little town, and nearby playground and skatepark. My only negative feedback is that the pool was absolutely freezing. We actually specifically chose this hotel as a last minute get-away because it said it had an outdoor heated pool but I couldn't even get in because it was so cold. My kids went in for a bit and had fun but didn't stay long because of the temperature. I'm honestly not sure I would come back because of it, which is a bummer because I loved everything else about our stay. I feel like I'd have to call ahead to see if any changes were made and what the temperature of the pool would be before booking. Other than that piece, would highly recommend if not interested in the pool piece.
- Michael A. (8/5): - Everything was fine except breakfast. We waited over 30 minutes for our food, it's was cold when we got it, we were not offered water until we'll into our meal. Server did not check to see if we needed anything and did not bring silverware with our meal until asked.
- Deborah (8/5): - The staff was very helpful when we needed to have a ground floor room
- Arvin (10/5): - The 1913 established resort nice decor. Older people would not like the steps and no elevator...but clean and atmosphere. Very quaint. Probably the vending machines not working and the expense....oh and no elevators. But I did not mind it.
- Daniel (10/5): -
- Mark (4/5): Not a Resort - The standard room was poorly maintained, dated and noisy. The bathroom fixtures were from the fifties, the bathroom door would not close properly and the floors were sagging and creaky.
- James (8/5): - Areas of the property looked a bit worn, uncared for. Lack of elevator made our stay somewhat more difficult because of mobility issues.
- Yong (4/5): - Rooms r very outdated
- Mariah (10/5): - Beautiful! The rooms were comfortable, they had a great gym, clean pool with a great view and sauna. Really enjoyed our time.
- Isabel (7/5): - The room was spacious and had a nice view of the golf course. It was a little bit outdated. Loud neighbors made our stay uncomfortable, but I guess you can have that bad luck in any hotel.
- dominique (6/5): a bit expensive for what you get -
- Kevin (8/5): - Convenient location for our activity. The property is old and needs updating
- 817beverlyl (6/5): Meh - Overpriced and in need of updates through out the hotel. Has potential but the room and bathroom need renovation. Friendly staff. Beautiful setting.
- A8798EDelizabeths (10/5): Very clean and well maintained - The old fashioned feel (keys) combined with modern style on access code safety. Customers friendly welcome and accommodative. Please to see amenities needs to make the stay worthwhile even an old fashioned sewing kit, if you’re in need of a mending or a modern k-cup machines for your enjoyment of a good cup of coffee
- mc-squared-e (2/5): Skip it. And never buy a timeshare here - I would never come back here. Overpriced. Mid quality. Run down. They closed the hot tub and never replaced it. The heated pool was ok. Sauna was not hot. The kitchen was bad. Service was bad. I can’t imagine ever coming back to this town. Waste of gas.
- 881mingf (2/5): The worst decision of my life. - I was an unfortunate owner of one of the timeshares they pitched. The maintenance fees went up double digits every year. And with little to show for it. The saunas never got really hot. They got rid of the hot tub and never replaced it. The town is mid. The skiing grew ever more unaffordable. Some years I couldn’t give away my week. Some years we just don’t go cuz it wasn’t worth the gas.
- Iola (10/5): - Attractive place. Convenient for us traveling from VT to coast. Lovely staff.
- Rachel (6/5): Pleasant - Nice setting, beautiful grounds No ice machine in our building. Pool closes at 6 pm in the summertime and it was quite cold.
- Hamlin (7/5): Good -
- Niceolderwoman (10/5): Perfect for a small gathering - I recently organized a Celebration of Life gathering for 30 people at the Bethel Inn. I was extremely pleased and delighted at how they presented and ran the evening. We met in their upstairs Gibson Room, had comfortable and roomy seating, a small bar and appetizer table, and a longer buffet. Appetizers and bar were up and running when we arrived at 4, dinner was presented 45 minutes later, and everything ran like clockwork. The food was fantastic, fresh, hot dishes were hot and not overdone, cold dishes were crisp and tasty. Wait staff was polite, professional, and helpful, the room was clean and attractive. I can not praise the Inn and their staff enough. Thank you from all of us!
- Godburn (8/5): Very good -
- Long (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jean (6/5): - There were stains on the carpet. The bathroom was postage stamp size. On the great side, the tavern was fantastic and our waitress was superb
- ThomasV1000 (4/5): Getting old…. - This used to be a charming place but no investment for a long time. The place is deserted. The tennis court is not maintained and not usable. There is no longer a breakfast buffet like they used to have. And the recognition of loyal customers is inexistant…
- Steen (9/5): Superb - Highly recommendable
- Micheal (6/5): - Quiet, friendly staff . Pool area was nice . Room was nice however the carpet was pretty stained, could use a good cleaning .
- Laura (8/5): - We ran into some issues with our stay here, but the staff have been
- Linda (9/5): Superb -
- beckyb896 (6/5): It was ok. Nothing spectacular - They don’t actually have an indoor pool. Just the entrance is indoor but the actual pool is outside. They advertise indoor pool. It was cold and raining and we were pretty upset we didn’t get to go swimming, which is the main reason we chose a hotel advertising an indoor pool.
- Paul (1/5): Extremely disappointed. - Room was noisy. We could hear every door that opened and every step on the stairs and every voice that uttered a sound. The shower was slippery and no provision for a non-slip surface. We booked a king size bed and got twin beds. Room smelled like someone's pet stayed there. The coffee in the room was as bad as ever I've had.
- Sheri F (10/5): - Beautiful property with nice amenities. We liked the gas fireplace in our room! Bottles of water, mini fridge, muffins and coffee in the lobby..I wish we had stayed longer to enjoy the pool and other offerings. Will definitely return!
- wendyn453 (10/5): Exceptional customer service and property - Found this gem for a last minute one night stay with a family of 6. Reception/customer service was exceptional, making sure we had a condo to meet our needs. Our two bedroom space had 3 bathrooms and room for everyone to spread out. Location was quiet, rooms had everything we needed. Only minor complaint was no sponge to clean dishes. We didn't use the amenities, but I did see people swimming in an outdoor heated pool. Great value for what we got. Will go again! Front desk was exceptional! Thanks!
- John (10/5): Exceptional -
- Z1178EBwesleyl (10/5): Comfortable - The room was very comfortable. We relaxed in jetted tub and then slept in the most comfortable bed. We got to unwind after a funeral and the Bethel Resort definitely came through. We will be back to visit. Beautiful mountain views and cozy small town atmosphere.
- Daniel (10/5): - Every member of the staff we encountered, from the front desk to the tavern, was very friendly and professional. We will plan to stay there again on our next trip to the area.
- Melanie (10/5): Exceptional -
- Richard (4/5): - The property itself was fine. I have two issues: 1. I've always understood that Expedia prices that say "Includes taxes and fees" means what it says. And yet, I was charged an additional $20.29 and when I called to ask about what it was, I was told that it was taxes. 2. I reserved a "Superior King." The description said "King bed" and the photo displaying the room had 2 beds. On check-in, I was given a room that had 1 queen bed and 1 room. When I asked for a different room, I was given an appropriate room (2 queens, and it was easily twice the size, with a sitting room in addition to bedroom. So yes, they did give me the appropriate room, but the first was clearly NOT what I'd reserved.
- Wendy (7/5): Great get away. Great weather. Cozy room. - What breakfast? We love the area and pool and trails! Paying extra for ski trails. No breakfast included. No safety bar in shower.
- William (7/5): Good - Was expecting twin beds, got a king size that we had to share.
- Bethany (4/5): - Very dated, room lighting was poor, shower was cramped, bed was so uncomfortable, vending machine had zero in it, no skating rink like advertised, restaurant dated
- Go01910512076 (8/5): Family favorite in Bethel Maine - We have been to the Bethel Inn many times and unfortunately some of our favorite parts such as the formal dining room no longer exist, We enjoyed a visit to the Millbrook tavern and we were seated promptly as per our reservation. Our waitress Lana was great and the music was great. However the wait for our food was very long (5:45-7:15 PM) and with 2 children ages 5 and 7 it was difficult. It was not clear why others seated after us were served and long gone before we were served. It was the Tuesday of President’s week and a school Vacation week. We hope to see a revitalization of the inn and we look forward to visiting the inn again in the future. We recently visited the von Trapp Family Lodge which shows this type of Inn could be a succesful business model.
- sophiagF5020GE (2/5): Dirty, smelly and outdated - Upon entering the "resort", the halls reminded me of a motel, shabby and dated. We entered our room, and honestly, if it was clean, I could accept that the place is dated. However, we were greeted with the strong stench of urine. My teenage son said that it smelled like a men's bathroom. First impressions are strong, and being greeted by this awful smell really ruined things for me. We called guest services 5 seconds after entering the room, and while they did send someone immediately, the smell didn't dissipate entirely. The sink also drained VERY slowly (5 minutes for it to drain after washing hands). I can't reommend this place to anyone and I will not be staying here again. The photos on the website are so deceiving and make this place look a lot nicer than it really is. It's too bad, because it's a very convenience location to several ski mountains.
- margaritaz471 (2/5): Terrible - The rooms are in serious need of a renovation, the curtains were falling apart, the pillows are old and bumpy, the heating didn’t work, the volume on the tv didn’t work, the bathroom was freezing and with no way to heat, there was no coffee in the room, they only give you water on the first day and don’t service the rooms! It is not a cheap hotel but they don’t give hotel services
- Matthew (8/5): Lovely place to stay for a few nights - Love the heated outdoor pool, love the fireplaces in the suites. Ease of parking and quick-grab breakfast muffins/coffee option
- Susan (10/5): - Beautiful
- D1731JIchristinag (6/5): Nice views but obvious cost cutting curbs the appeal. - Large room and nice view. Unnecessarily cheap toilet paper, Kleenex, and pillows. Breakfast buffet oily eggs, cold food, instant oatmeal. Inn definitely needs upgrades and a facelift. The room and hallways were clean. However there is no housekeeping service unless you stay 3 days. The side stairs are easy access but need to be upgraded and trends for winter weather used to improve their safety.
- Per (10/5): Your staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful. We felt community and other guests we met return - There was no breakfast available. You might include a packet in such days with a roll, a piece of fruit and such. I loved having the outdoor pool. It all worked. The best part was your helpful and friendly staff. We thought each one we met was exceptional! It gives ambience.
- Phillip (9/5): Superb -
- jeremy (10/5): - Very convenient to sliming at Sunday river
- Kate (10/5): - Great property
- Anne (2/5): Very poor -
- Tim (8/5): Would happily return - Comfy rooms, and perfectly located in town Only that the restaurant was closed for renovations
- Nancy (9/5): I’d stay here again when visiting Bethel - it was charming. - The room was cozy and comfortable, the staff was friendly and helpful and the tavern had a nice atmosphere and very good food. The lobby fireplace is a nice touch.
- Odyssey31929783452 (10/5): Wedding - We had our wedding at the Bethel Inn and had an amazing experience! The day was perfect from start to end! Becca was great and answered all our questions/concerns. She helped coordinate all the small last minute details and was very responsive. The food was fantastic and everything was cooked to perfection.
- mariannevM4498OE (10/5): Love staying here!!! - Beautiful, historic property with a committed and enthusiastic staff, surrounded by gorgeous nature where adventures invite exploration and play year-round. What's not to love? Have enjoyed being an employee in the hotel & hospitality industry in Maine for about 25 years now, and staying here always reminds why retirement is still years away ;-) Also, special shout out to Front Desk Evelyn - a true ambassador for the Bethel Resort community. She's a gem! See you again with skis on feet when the snow falls!
- Schutz (10/5): Very nice place to stay. Loved it's history would recommend to other's - Food was very good remote Remote for tv didn't work. Had to use manual buttons on back of tv
- Robert (8/5): Very good - Location of the room was ok but the road on the property was poor and bad for the car
- DAVID (8/5): - We had a pleasant bit somewhat dated room. Comfortable bed and pillows. Bathroom fine. It's a big old place that needs some upgrading. It has charm certainly but for the price I would say it was not worth it.
- Anselmus (6/5): Missed opportunity - The hotel needs renovation. Such a nice place, and the history - great. But without preservation it is a missed opportunity and as a customer I feel not respected. No daily cleaning, fitness center very outdated, limited sense of hospitality (staff is friendly but the spirit of hospitality is missing).
- David (10/5): - Most comfortable Inn with amazing history.
- Bryan (6/5): - Some outlets were not working. Rooms need to be painted over
- 378hw (2/5): Beware of the Bethel Inn - The hotel is falling apart. The service is non-existent. They always screw up my reservation. This time I was in a fairway room with burned out lights, decrepit furniture and a door that was hard to shut. The Tavern restaurant was dark and the service was poor. This is not a resort or a spa. It is way past its prime and poorly maintained at premium prices. This is my second time with the same experience and the last time I will stay here.
- Sightsee788585 (10/5): A Gem! - The Bethel Inn is a gem. We have been going for the last 35 years. Staff is helpful and attentive. Food was good. Picturesque scenery. Just beautiful. Our week end was delightful was delightful. The golf course is nice too and the Golf Pro is very helpful.
