Very clean rooms and public areas, great location with free parking, great breakfast, 24h tea and coffee station. This place looks brand new and feels way above its 2star rating.
This is a great hotel right in the downtown of bar harbor. Hotel staff were very friendly and helpful, bed was comfortable, room was good sized. Easily walkable to all of downtown activity and only a very short drive to Scadia!

It was a few blocks walk from the main streets which was a great location. Staff was exceedingly helpful. Mackenzie spent a great deal of time with us planning our day at Acadia Park. The breakfast frittata was great - had it twice.
