Having spent a recent weekend at the macomber, I wish to share some of my concerns in the spirit of constructive criticism. On the plus side, the hotel was clean and an interesting walk back into history which I thoroughly enjoyed. I do realize that it is an old establishment and I expect and accept that as such, things can go wrong. However, it is the beginning of the summer season and it was apparent to me that ordinary maintenance and necessary upkeep does not seem to be a priority. The doorknob to the bathroom kept falling off, the window came out when we tried to push it up, the wall was coming apart under the bathroom sink, there was paper in a locking mechanisn to hold the lock in place on a door.

Loving The Macomber

I don't know why people complain about this hotel, do they not realize that it is very old, and the hotel staff cannot help that there is an arcade blocking the view. I truly enjoyed my trip I even went on the ghost tour ( desiree) our tour guide was very good at what she was doing. I did the tour on the 4th of july, our tour guide had mentioned that there was only one tour that night due to the fact that there would be fireworks, ( which I must say, due to the clouds they were somewhat disappointing) but anyway... I loved the hotel macomber and would definatley stay there again, and again. I will also recommend it to my friends and family. Thank you.

I've stayed at the macomber several times and loved it! It is very affordable, charming and I love being near the ocean. Last week, I called and asked if by chance they had any vacancies for a friday night, because my parents wanted to meet us for dinner. The woman I talked said that infact they do and told me of the different rooms I could stay in. I gave her my address and credit card number and asked what time she would be expecting me.

Not Bad

Overall a good stay. Great location. The only downside was that the air conditioning was not working in our room and it took them a day to get it working. Rooms were clean.

Lacking Customer Service

My husband and i stayed at hotel macomber on a package. It included 2 nights, a bottle of champagne and a $70 credit towards the union park restaurant. Overall, a good deal. Check-in was pleasant enough. The room was clean. Just a bit of advice to the staff - when you provide a bottle of champagne, it would be nice to not have to go searching for a glass to put it in. I went to the man at the front desk to ask for glasses and he said i needed to go through the restaurant for them. Luckily, the lady who checked us in was in the restaurant at the time showing some potential customers the facility for a wedding. I had to wait a bit for her but eventually she came out into the hotel lobby area and handed me a couple of glasses from a cabinet in the sitting room. She said they were clean. They were not clean and still had remnants of a prior liquid in the bottom. The man at the desk certainly could have assisted me in obtaining these dirty glasses but he chose to remain seated and ignored me. Having said that, i would like to comment on the union park restaurant and how incredible the food and service was. I would definitely go back to the restaurant but pass on the hotel.
