Hotels near Bates College

"My sister and I LOVED the Harraseeket! We did not realize they had afternoon tea every day so that was a pleasant surprise. The historic building is absolutely beautiful, and because we are both seniors, and the elevator was broken from the ground floor up to reception, they were accommodating in that they gave us a room on the same floor as reception, even though we had not previously requested it. The continental breakfast was very tasty, and to add a little protein, we each ordered a reasonably-priced side from the menu. We definitely wish we could have stayed longer, and would stay again."

"Asside from the load construction it was a good hotel."

"Very nice historic hotel! Would stay there again!"

"The room was decently sized and very clean with comfortable beds and very comfortable pillows. The staff were friendly. Breakfast was good! I had eggs, sausage, toast and a muffin with coffee to drink. Parking was easy, free and plentiful! Ive stayed here before and would again in the future! "

"This was by far one of the best hotel stays!! The place was so clean, the breakfast was awesome, and the best part was the staff!!! We will definitely be coming back!"

"Quiet location. Nice room, comfortable and clean."

"Understandably, the hallways were a mess due to construction. But I’m not sure I have ever seen such a sloppy work site. There appeared to be zero effort put into keeping things “tidy” while under construction. The entry door would not close and lock unless you put a lot of extra effort into it. I closed it a few times but it was always left open when I went though. Pretty sure the building was never secure over night. Along with that the deadbolt wouldn’t work in my room. I have had a great experience here in the past, and I’m sure that it will return that level after the construction. I just feel like it could have been managed better and safer."

"The fire alarm went off the night we stayed because someone was smoking in their room. They let us back in after a little bit we finally got settled into bed around 11pm and they went off again (to reset the system which would have been nice if they called the rooms to let people know it was going to go off again) Since we didn't know that my kids woke back up scared. The redeeming quality in all this experience was the Overnight manager. She was very calm and kind and settled us all down especially my son who was terrified and didn't want to stay at that point. They did end up refunding our stay without any issues."

"The place was clean but needs to be updated "
