  Rustic Slopeside Ski and Stay

  Overall, we were happy with our stay because the hotel was close to great skiing and had a simple, rustic feel. It's fun ending the day on Lollapalooza, skiing right to the hotel, and winding down in the outdoor hot tub. But, do be aware of lift and trail closures, especially of the Jordan lifts on windy days, as closures could force you to use shuttles. The shuttle is very time consuming since Jordan is far away from other parts of Sunday River. While its remoteness makes the hotel feel like a relaxing getaway, it can also be inconvenient when trying to access other resort amenities. We traveled off-site for meals except for breakfast. The morning breakfast was really good with plenty of variety and worth the price. But the other on-site restaurant, Sliders, was standard fare.

  Amazing Ski In/Ski Out at Sunday River Resort

  We loved the remoteness of this amazing ski in/ski out hotel at the Sunday River Resort in Maine. With just two of us, we opted for the queen Murphy bed studio w/patio. It includes breakfast daily. The room (number 237) was very clean which we appreciate! It does overlook the pool and ski trail. Which can be a pro/con. It was a little loud at times from pool and we had to keep shades down for privacy from ski trail. Otherwise it was nice to look out over them! We even saw the groomers go by. If you arent an advanced skier or boarder, the trails outside hotel in Jordan Bowl may be difficult. We found ourselves using the free shuttle after each day to get back to hotel versus skiing back over since the Jordan Bowl is far from the main lodges and easier trails. The free shuttle service is very nice and we used it for dinner one night. The Jordan Hotel also offers a complimentary ski check and three places to eat. There is a heated outdoor pool and jacuzzi along with a spa! Obviously with COVID regulations our trip was slightly restricted but we made the most of it and would definitely come back again. Only reason for 4 stars is the hotel is slightly dated but it fits into the Maine/lodge atmosphere so doesnt seem to bad once you settle in!

  Some people could use a heads up.

  Resort is nice and clean. The front desk people are great! The ski valet guy doesn't care about his job i.e. he tells people to hurry up when bringing their skis to be valeted as he is done at 4:00pm (well, the mountain closes at 4pm). This guy, as a consequence, doesn't get much in tips. The OUTSIDE hot tubs, some guests are actually afraid of people that take the dust masks off in another hot tub (cause the masks get wet and unbreathable). Wow, you can have the mask off outside the building, but not in the hot tub area. LOL. The front entrance help heard saying - "it's not my job to throw out things people don't want to take home." ! I thought they had a job to help people? Sunday River ski area - they have mask nazis that sternly tell you to pull your mask up if your nose is exposed (outside -5 F) guy actually got in my face about me not being able to cover my nose - my goggles were stopping the mask.But walking out to the shuttle, that's OK if the mask is off. The resort actually wants you to keep your mask on all the time, even when skiing. Dining, The Shipyard Restaurant - we were told only two credit cards could be used to pay the dining bill per table - the 5 of us each had a food card to charge on. The Foggy Goggle - locals specials are not available to out of staters.

  Very poor condition rooms

  First of all, let me say that, without exception, each person I interacted with at the hotel was lovely. They were professional, welcoming, and genuinely nice. That saved the day. The common areas are also fine. They are a bit dated but fine for a ski hotel. The rooms, however, are in rough shape. It is not an exaggeration to say they were likely last renovated in 1982. The wallpaper is peeling off the walls, there is flaking paint on the ceilings, and even the little plastic signs to reuse the towels look like they came from a flea market. Also, our room was filthy. Dirty toilet, food in sink, butter smears in fridge, bacon pieces on the stove, bottle caps on the floor. The wifi is painfully slow, and we were told by reservations that the pool was closed. As a result we didn't pack swimsuits. It was open. Oh, and they charge a "resort fee" on top of the room rate. However, again, the people were all lovely and helpful. They apparently have problems with with homeowners association in getting renovations done. That doesn't explain all, but it helps. Also, they did provide breakfast which was a pleasant surprise. It was also very helpful ad there is nowhere to eat. Nowhere. They have one restaurant which is not open everyday and has a limited menu. They also are 20 minutes from the nearest market but don't tell you this. Quite hard to feed your family here. And, nobody has a suggestion for where to go or what is open. We found something but it wasn't easy. Also, location is great. True ski on and off. So, go for the location and the people. If you expect weak dining and an upstate NY State through way type motel room, it works for skiing.

  Great convenience, poor accommodations

  The staff is friendly and helpful, the views are awesome, and the ability to ski-in/ski-out is incredible. On the downside, I feel like I was robbed. I paid over $400 per night for a dirty, dilapidated hotel room without a mini fridge and without housekeeping. (The lack of maid service was likely due to Covid, but that should be reflected in a lower price.) There was a former guest's receipt and a candy wrapper on our rug. The wallpaper was peeling off the walls. The room felt scummy and was extremely outdated. Because of Covid, we had to wait in a long line for breakfast (understandable) and eat in our rooms. Again, I feel like this should have been reflected in a lower price. $200 per night would be more appropriate.
