The Claremont Hotel (referred to as The Claremont Hotel) is a historic hotel on Claremont Road in Southwest Harbor, Maine. Built in 1883, the main hotel building is one of the only 19th-century hotels to survive on Mount Desert Island.
In 2020, Kennebunkport-based Claremont Hospitality LLC led by Tim Harrington, has acquired the hotel for an undisclosed price. Harrington has invested $20+ million in a nine-month redevelopment of the property which was completed in time for the 2021 summer season. The hotel facilities now include 34 guest rooms, four suites (in the Phillips House) and 12 cottages overlooking Somes Sound. It also has two restaurants and a bar.
