Excellent accommodation. Great rooms and fantastic service.

The ultimate country house experience describes your visit to Relais & Chateaux's only Eastern Canada property. Two-time Andrew Harper Hideaway Grand Award winner. Mobil Four-Star. Fodor's Top Twenty Hotels in the World. Set high on a hill amidst 27 acres of salt-air gardens, the inn overlooks the historic seaside resort of St. Andrews with golf, galleries, enchanting harbor, and the world's highest tides. Romantic suites- each uniquely decorated and sumptuously appointed- have marble bathrooms, fireplaces, and balconies with sweeping ocean views. Every evening a dinner party gathers for celebrated regional cuisine paired with selections from our Wine Spectator Award winning cellar. Dinner at Kingsbrae Arms is an unforgettable experience. Our dining room combines the finest of a world-class restaurant set in the intimacy of a luxuriously restored historic country house. In the evening, guests gather for cocktails and canapes in the library and on the garden terraces overlooking the sea. They might enjoy one of many single malt Scotch liquors or a favorite drink. This gracious country house of impressive proportions has welcomed international guests since 1897. The legendary houseparties of the first owners brought artists, poets, writers, and statesmen to this crossroads. Today the inn invites guests to open their hearts to the feelings of personal service and attention- a welcome experience in the modern world. These moments may occur with a thoughtful gift, an unexpected champagne toast, preparation of a personal favorite dish, a friendly conversation, or a touching farewell. This is a private home where names are known, and needs are looked after in the most attentive way. Through the years, honeymooners have returned to celebrate anniversaries. Travelers who have roamed the world return to familiar surroundings. Our goal is to make every new face stepping through the front door of Kingsbrae Arms a new friend.

Directions to Hotel
Major United States airlines (Delta, US Airways, American, Northwest, Continental) fly directly into Bangor, Maine several times a day from many cities throughout the Northeast and Midwest. Arrangements can be made to meet you at the airport; however, most guests prefer rental cars. The inn is a beautiful two-hour country drive from Bangor International Airport (BGR) past blueberry fields, forests and streams. Flights are also available into Saint John International Airport (YSJ). Saint John is one hour from St. Andrews. And finally, there is a local landing strip for private planes and charters just minutes away.
