Stucco Lodge

About The Hotel

From $149/night, the Stucco Lodge is a 4.7-rated family motel on State Street between Bangor and Orono. Andy and his team run a tight, spotless ship—large rooms, comfortable beds, an outdoor pool, and genuinely warm service set this simple roadside stay apart from chain hotels nearby. It’s best for budget travelers, UMaine visitors, and Acadia-bound stopovers who value cleanliness, quiet, and honesty over amenities. You won’t find on-site dining or resort-style extras here, but you will find genuine hospitality, free parking, and some of the best value in the greater Bangor area.

What Guests Are Saying

“By far the best I have stayed in when traveling to the Bangor area. The room was large, clean, and fresh, and the beds were so comfortable. The hotel was booked solid for graduation weekend but we did not hear a sound from any other room. This is a mom and pop motel and they are very proud of their business; Andy is wonderful and his rates were the lowest in the Bangor area.” — Lyra R., 5 stars

“What a great little spot! Lovely and clean and a great outdoor pool for the kiddos. Andy, the very attentive owner, is super helpful and kind. My boys loved shooting some hoops at the basketball net and it was nice not to hear the people upstairs like you do in some of the more modern hotels. Our first time there but we will be back.” — Jay L., 5 stars

“We needed a last minute place to stay on our way to Bar Harbor and I am so happy we decided to make a stop here! The staff is wonderful and friendly and really make you feel welcome. The room was very clean and put together nicely, and the beds were comfortable with enough pillows and blankets.” — Katie B., 5 stars
