Our room was recently renovated and very nice. Unbeatable location close to shops and restaurants. I highly recommend Bar Harbor Inn restaurant. Food was delicious and perfectly cooked. Our server Sergey was friendly and attentive. He was very helpful with food choices. Wonderful service overall!

Perfect place for girls' getaway - we were celebrating a birthday and retirement. Beautiful grounds, clean and comfortable rooms, great food, and delightful staff. We were especially impressed with the spa. We both indulged in a massage the first day and were really happy with the overall experience - and particularly with the therapist (Marsha) who was professional and intuitive... More

Love the area, great place to stay if you like to walk around town. Very convenient to shops and places to eat. Went during the off season so there wasn't any crowds in the area. My only complaint was that I reserved on a special price and when I got my bill it was full price for two nights out... More

The Bar Harbor in is a really cute hotel with great and well kept grounds and amazing views of the ocean and Bar Harbor. My husband and I did not get an ocean view room, and were really bummed when we got there because the balconies of those rooms looked amazing! We had a little covered sitting area outside of... More

Terrific stay in a wonderful Inn. Room was spacious with great view of ocean, porch for sitting and watching the harbor. Bath and shower were clean and tub had nice jacuzzi. Room was complete with fireplace, for warming after the chill of the day. Service was excellent, desk staff very accommodating. Best relaxing trip in a long time.

Please don't let my 4 star rating deter you, this is a great hotel, offering incredible views right from the water front. I just have very high standards on what constitutes a 5-star review, and it wasn't quite there.

Wonderful stay in room #218 which was 2 bedrooms, 2 baths with great view from bedroom window & wonderful balcony. Staff very helpful. We traveled in early May, and I would wait till the summer season starts in June next time. Beautiful hotel.

Fabulous location with comfortable, spacious and complete amenities. Friendly staff, good food and good value during low season. Even early morning fog enhances the ambiance. This is the best way to experience coastal Maine before the tourist waves arrive
