AMAZING! I can’t say enough how much we loved this hotel. Everything from the staff, to breakfast, to the comfy beds, to the cleanliness! They go above and beyond at every turn. Located right in the heart of Bar Harbor everything is walking distance which made traveling with kiddos that much easier! Already can’t wait to come back!

The entire experience in Bar Harbor was wonderful. I highly recommend this property and love that they have dedicated parking, a rarity in most places. Make sure you come back early because they can be a little limited. Highly recommend a stay here if staying in bar harbor. Everything was walkable and Acadia national park was an easy 15 min drive away. Also a shoutout to Matt at front desk because of his immense professionalism and attentiveness and great attitude. I would definitely stay here again. Beautiful property and well maintained.

The breakfast was top notch and we were beyond impressed. Also, the largest hotel room I have ever stayed in, very spacious!!! My only negative is parking, they provide it but there are no available spaces, so this was frustrating to find a place to park.

Will return!

This hotel was amazing! The room was picture perfect with all the essentials and luxurious features! Parking under the hotel was an excellent addition given the weather that I encountered.
