I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were spacious with a good-sized fridge and microwave for quick meals, but they were serviced only every three days due to plumbing issues. The service was great, staff were helpful and accommodating, recommending nearby eateries and preparing our breakfast. The location was a bit inconvenient for walking to the harbor, with water leaking on the floor, but it was fantastic for accessing Acadia National Park and downtown Bar Harbor. The dining experience was decent, although breakfast was limited to cereals. Overall, a stay with ups and downs.

The hotel is in a convenient location with close proximity to Bar Harbor Maine and the National Park. The rooms were very clean and ready for my stay, but they were a bit small and had a slight musty smell with the A/C on. The service was helpful and accommodating, although not overly friendly. The dining experience was subpar, leading me to explore other options nearby. The facilities were standard without notable extras.

The hotel is ideally located within walking distance to downtown Bar Harbor and offers easy access to nearby trails. While the rooms have a higher-end feel, they are in need of renovation.

I couldn't have asked for a better location! Just a quick walk from both Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. The room was comfortable for our group of 4, but a bit small considering the size of the bed and furniture. The service was nice and accommodating, especially during these challenging times. The dining options were varied, but the timing for breakfast was a bit limited. Overall, a very pleasing stay with a few minor hiccups.

The hotel had very clean and spacious rooms but was extremely expensive for what was provided. Unfortunately, my room wasn't ready on time, delayed by staff shortages. The service was friendly and helpful, although some improvements in staff training are needed. The location was great, close to downtown Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park, but a bit too close to a busy traffic light intersection. The dining experience was super, with a separate building offering standard hotel fare. The facilities were adequate but not exceptional.

This hotel's in such a convenient location, within walking distance from town and the coast. The rooms were comfortable and contemporary, equipped with a fridge, microwave, and coffee maker. The service was exceptional, especially the staff at the front desk who even helped us with our belongings after we checked out. The dining options were a bit limited, but the staff did their best to make up for it. The hotel's on a hill, overlooking the harbor, making it a great spot for exploring without the higher price tag of waterfront hotels.
