Not good. Zero stars

Dirt and hair all over the bathroom floor. I had to scootch around the floor with a towel to attempt to clean it up. Disgusting! Called the front desk, but management was gone for the day. We had to leave the dirty towel outside the door for proof. Yikes! All...

Lovely

Had a lovely stay here despite it being a bit pricey Room was very clean, bed comfortable and view over the harbor wonderful. Staff very nice and accommodating. The hotel is facing the main road so it got a bit noisy during the day. The restaurant was disappointing, food just...

Perfect for a honeymoon - a magical experience

My wife and I decided to spend our honeymoon here. The experience was top-notch. Everyone was friendly; the guest-relations staff, maintenance, hospitality, cleaners, management, guests - everyone. Our room was beautifully renovated, while still paying homage to the past. We had a beautiful view of the Bay; I would argue...

Some issues and decorated like my grandma's house, but we would likely return!

We arrived very late Mon nite and upon waking, we found that the hotel restaurant was inexplicably closed on a Tuesday! We travel several times a year and have never encountered this before. Now we had to get in the car and wander around a location we have never visited...

A Very Friendly Comfortable and Relaxing Home From Home

King Suite - Mizzentop 4th Floor (room 403 I think). A very comfortable double room suite with plenty of space. The balcony gave us a superb view accross the Harbor and Islands. We were enjoying a driving holiday North along the coast from New York to Bar Harbor to see...

Not what we were expecting… :-(

This is a hotel more than an inn. Not located on the water, views were obstructed by trees across the road, decor was dated, closet was musty smelling and could not be used, parking is mostly on a hill, and the price paid was not worth it, no where close...

You won't be sorry

This hotel is great! It is conveniently located on the main road into Bar Harbor and has great views of the harbor and Bar Island. The front desk staff was very courteous and there is a store in the lobby with great gifts and some food. Coffee and hot chocolate...

Lovely place with lovely views

This is an ideal place for a Bar Harbor getaway. It offers 4-star service but is an unassuming place. You can walk into downtown (I think it is LESS than a mile to most places) and it's a short drive to get to Acadia. There's a wonderful breakfast place right...

Great hotel near Acadia

This hotel was perfectly located for quiet, beautiful scenery and relaxation, but close enough to walk into Bar Harbor. We stayed in an ocean/harbor view room which was lovely. I enjoyed sitting on the balcony and looking at the sea and the island . The workout facility was good and...

A truly wonderful experience!

A simply wonderful experience! Old world charm. Literal keys are used to access your well apportioned room. Four poster beds; fire places; over stuffed chairs; double vanities; crystal lamps grace oversized rooms. Balconies face the harbor with the town on Bar Harbor to the right. 24-hour coffee bar and gift...

Nice View & Great Meal

We had just gotten off the ship for the Windjammer 2 hour cruise and at the top of the dock was the Bar Harbor Inn Grill. We got our sets, read the menu and made our orders, all in good time. I ordered the luncheon meal of charcuterie plate (photo)...
