Very clean rooms, no mold in the bathrooms. Great location, free parking, only complaint was that the pool closed at 8 pm. Staff was friendly. It was a very pleasant stay! It was affordable (although I made the mistake of booking through Orbitz.com who charged me quite a bit more than the actual hotel rate per night!) and it was... More

Travelling with an 87-year-old on a road trip is always a challenge. So our family of four always asks for connecting (adjoining) rooms. On this trip the Days Inn Niagara Falls, Ruby Foo's in Montreal, Holiday Inn Express in St. Foy Quebec, and the Hampton Inn Suites in Wells, Massachusetts had no problem accomodating our request. Our reservations were made... More

This hotel is a short walk to "downtown," so the location is perfect. We had a large, comfortable room and bathroom, the bed was incredibly comfortable and the staff was friendly and helpful. We loved sitting out in the rocking chairs on the front porch with our second cup of coffee watching the world go by. Access to the shore... More

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this hotel. This trip amazed us in so many ways. To start the friendliness of the staff made us feel so welcome. The room was spacious and clean. The bed was extremely comfortable. The complimentary breakfast had so many things to choose from. And the package that we purchased was well worth the money.... More

Hotel is a good basic value hotel. Comfortable,clean well sized hotel room. Good location (at the end of Main Street, a short walk from all the hustle and bustle) But hotel lacked the elegance and/or opulence that the name and/or the watercolour pictures suggests. When you walk in the front entrance, you are essentially walking thru the self service breakfast... More

Very comfortable, all the amenities, a little too "candle-dippy colonial" but the manager was wonderful, and quite honestly, the most comfortable hotel bed I have ever slept on! Get a room far from the elevator because it is very noisy! The breakfast was adequate, but served with little attention to detail; styrofoam plates, plastic cutlery, napkins and cups...tacky for a...

My fiance and I came to Bar Harbor to celebrate our 3 year anniversary and we had a wonderful time! The staff was very helpful and friendly. They made all our dinner and cruise reservations for us which made our stay easier. We found our room to be very nice. It was clean and comfortable and we enjoyed the artwork... More

A wonderful place to stay! We had a great time.stayed three nights. The staff was very helpful and friendly. We had a large, pleasant room, well beyond our expectations. They have a great exercise room on site. The restaurant next door was very good and there were many others within walking distance.

What a gem! Right next door to a beautiful restaurant/pub with delicious fare, one of the few places open to eat in the late evening off-season. Walked right over. Reception was warm and welcoming. Rooms are very clean and rather big. Breakfast area looks great. Location is fantastic. Decor is classy (not like some of the dated-looking photos). It was... More

We recently stayed 2 nights at the Bar Harbor Grand. We were lucky enough to get a "family suite" with 2 bedrooms and 1 bath. The staff and the hotel were absolutely delightful. We enjoyed ourselves immensely. Dennis and his staff took care of our every need. This is a beautiful hotel that is staffed and managed by gracious people.... More
