- David (10/5): A Real Gem - Wonderful experience!!
- Randy (10/5): - Loved the easy access to all amenities and ease of getting back enroute to Bangor.
- Wendy (10/5): - Was a very pleasant experience.
- Justin (10/5): - Great
- Daniel (10/5): - Owner is on the property and tends to all your needs.
- NICOLE (10/5): - Staff was super friendly and supportive. Gave me another bed when I stated I could not do upper bunk bed.
- Philip (10/5): - All good
- Laurence (10/5): - Nice accomidations and breakfast.
- Arianne (10/5): - Melanie and Justin were wonderful hosts, and Zack welcomed us so nicely. The property and private room we had were all incredibly well maintained, and for a busy hostel, they were able to make us feel like we were coming home after a long day of travel. Everyone was friendly and accommodating, and our young children were welcomed and had a great time. Wish we were able to stay longer!
- MENG JUNG (10/5): - The best hostel I have ever stayed!
- Stephen (10/5): - I think sometimes the word hostel has some bad connotations but. this was the most beautiful bed and breakfast like property I've ever been in and the staff was extremely welcoming helpful and friendly. You feel like you're coming home after a adventurous day on the mountains.
- Denise (4/5): Yes eco friendly, but not on other amenities - The hostel of Maine was absolutely beautiful. However, it did have some strange rules like no shoes when you come inside. It also did not have a laundry spot where I could do my laundry. They had a laundry service which I did not feel comfortable using. I prefer to do my own laundry. There was absolutely no air conditioning and the heat was unbearable. All in all, if you're looking for a eco-friendly place with no air conditioning, no TV, then this is the spot for you.
- Kurt (10/5): Great place to stay - I was a little skeptical about a shared bunk room, but the place ended up being wonderful. The property is very new and nice, bathroom was perfect, everything felt clean and new. The staff (Justin) was awesome, very friendly and accommodating. I was there for Sugarloaf marathon and they provided us a pasta dinner and late checkout for all of us.
- Vicki (10/5): Ski Day - We booked an overnight for skiing the next day. The hostel was close to the mountain, was easy to find, was exceptionally clean and comfortable. Breakfast was great too!
- David (10/5): - The hostel had very nice private rooms, and for the adventurous, the shared "hostel" experience was excellent.
- nancy (10/5): - Will stay there again.
- Chelsea (10/5): Amazing stay - I was so pleasantly surprised by the Hostel of Maine! I booked last minute, but was blown away by how beautiful the building was, how well designed the interior was and the staff (Maggie!) was great! Can’t beat the location to Sugarloaf. Would absolutely stay again!
- Yves (10/5): - Great place to stay ! Nice common Room with fireplace and good breakfast!
- Shannon (10/5): - Beautiful place to stay! Very conveniently located to sugarloaf! Stayed in the bunk room and had a great experience. They really have thought of everything!
- HsuanWen (10/5): - Everything is perfect here. The staff are super nice. The room and all the places are clean. Good breakfast and really hikers friendly. Would come back again The best hostel ever
- chris (10/5): - Easy to sleep at. Accommodating staff if needed to leave early/late or arrive early/late. Wifi is available and can come in at 300 mbps, depending on occupancy size.
- william (10/5): - Beautiful location
- Richard (10/5): - Quiet, friendly place.
- Paula (8/5): - Beautiful log cabin ski lodge type place, in middle of quiet woods.; just lovely. Unfortunately no one was around when I tried to check in at 4:30, there was just a “call this number if you need help” but nobody answered - so not a great check in. Also they need air conditioning on upper floor- was sweltering. And they say alcohol must be bought from them, but won’t sell wine by the glass, only by the bottle. These things added up to a bit of a disappointing stay.
- Donna (10/5): - Such a fantastic place to stay!
- David (10/5): - I hadn't stayed in a hostel since my youth. I wasn't sure what to expect. My travel was short-notice due to a family emergency and this hostel was the halfway point. It exceeded all expectations! The staff was warm and welcoming, the facilities were clean, accommodating and welcoming. I felt at home, is the best way to express how I felt. Thank you for a wonderful experience!
- Thomas (10/5): - Wonderful staff and beautiful facility
- Zachary (10/5): - Awesome place for a weekend getaway! Very friendly, personable group running the place. Super close to Sugarloaf and convenient to Kingfield! 10/10 would stay again

- Verified traveler (10/5): - The hostel of Maine was cozy & comfortable. Great place to crash after skiing. Continental breakfast was excellent and even a few dogs around last weekend. It's only 5 minutes from the hill o you can't beat the location!
- Mathew (10/5): - What a great place to stay was very clean and a friendly place to stay will definitely be back
- Bradford (10/5): Wonderful, cozy, B&B - Wonderful, cozy, B&B with a wonderful staff. Superb value.

- Donald (10/5): Great Nights Stay - Actually was expecting Less from a "Hostel"; however, much better than expected!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - My time at the Hostel of Maine was wonderful: beautiful, spotless and charming building that is well -located for hiking in the glorious Appalachian Mountains. What I appreciated most of all was the welcoming, kind and helpful staff.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - The Hostel of Maine was wonderful: lovely friendly and helpful staff, beautiful and comfortable living room with gorgeous stone fireplace. Great kitchen: delicious and generous continental breakfast (included in price). Pristine bedroom and bathroom facilities.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - We had such a great stay here! Our room was beautifully decorated and the bed was comfortable! We really enjoyed the wood cabin vibe and appreciated the cleanliness. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a place to stay in the area.
- Rick (10/5): - Amazingly clean, comfy bed, great common areas, perfectly located. I was really pleasantly surprised with how great this place was!
- Craig (10/5): - Very nice place ,great people an atmosphere!
- Scott (10/5): - This hostel made the long trip to this remote part of Maine all worth it. Very close or convinient to the nortic center, food shopping, excellent dinner dining, transit stop, and the Maine Trails and Huts network. I would recommend this hostel and this recreation area any time of year. The new owners have maintained the high quality of a bed and breakfast with the hominess, community interactions and reasonal price point of a high end hostel for all ages. The included continental breakfast is enough to keep one satisfied until lunch. This breakfast time is a good time for the guests to interact and network for the days activities.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - We loved our spacious private room. Many windows. Atmosphere is like a comfortable lodge. Kitchen is yours to cook if you like.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - The whole experience was easy, intuitive and set up to make one's stay easy and pleasant. I could not recommend more highly.
- Sean (10/5): Simple and cozy place to stay in northwest Maine - Great place, friendly people. Lots of outdoor activities nearby. Fun bar called "The Rack" has a lot of live music and good drinks/beer.
- LIN (10/5): High end hostel - Spacious high quality public area. Room is clean and comfortable. Close to Sugarloaf Ski resort.
- Wes (10/5): - Warm, clean, cozy, 'homey' with kind and accommodating proprietors. Amazing value for ski country and 2 miles from Suarbush, 3 miles from the AT.
- Julieta (8/5): Comfy and spacious room - Owner was nice and let me stay in common area while waiting for my room to get ready since I came in a lot earlier than check in time.
- Susan (10/5): Beautiful and relaxing - What a great atmosphere to come and relax in the woods of Maine. The communal atmosphere (many Appalachian Trail through-hikers) and beautiful log cabin make a great pied a terre for exploring the Sugarloaf area in the summer as well as winter.
- Laura (10/5): Amazing! - Absolutely gorgeous and great vibes! The owners are extremely nice and have discount tickets to Sugarloaf! We’ll definitely be back!
- sherman (8/5): - Had a comfortable stay - nice touch is the work area for ski tuning.
- Hank (10/5): Our Secret - I am really conflicted over this review. The truth this, Hostel of Maine is a fabulous find, but I hate to admit that because it means others will also find it and it will become harder to us to be there. We were greeted at the door by Melanie, who immediately made us feel quite at home. We had booked one of the private rooms, and we have booked one of the bunk rooms for next weekend.
