The capital city of Maine, Augusta has been experiencing a steady—albeit plodding—revival, one that has spanned more than a decade—and is still happening as we speak.
With each budding young entrepreneur that opens up a creative new small business in the downtown area, so follows an eventual uptick in tourism…which, in turn, creates a greater need for lodging options.
And while Augusta’s accommodations are currently almost solely limited to franchise hotels—not necessarily a bad thing—it is only a matter of time until a few ingenious and energetic minds get together and open some independently-owned inns, bed & breakfasts, and boutique hotels in the great city of Augusta, Maine.
