The Pathmaker Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great front desk staff, the room was huge and the bathroom was too! Super convenient to everything. The included breakfast was delicious and the bartender was awesome."

Atlantic Eyrie Lodge

8/10 Good

"Great location, gorgeous view. Room was large and clean. The only complaint we had was the shower pressure. But that was obviously not a deal breaker. We loved our stay here and would definitely stay here again. It was a little too cold for the pool, but it looked lovely. Breakfast in the morning was perfect before heading out to the park. Loved that the shuttle stopped here too."

Holiday Inn Resort Bar Harbor - Acadia Natl Park by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent place to stay! The resort is beautiful, the facilities are clean and well maintained, and the on-site restaurant was quite good. We really enjoyed our stay overall. The only area that could use some attention is the (not designated) dog relief area, which was unfortunately quite dirty. It would be helpful to have a clearly visible sign reminding pet owners to pick up after their dogs so the area can remain clean and pleasant for everyone traveling with pets. Otherwise, a wonderful resort and a very enjoyable stay!"

Robbins Motel

10/10 Excellent

"staff was amazing room was amazing. perfect location only 20 mins to acadia! will definitely be back!"

Bluenose Inn - Bar Harbor Collection

10/10 Excellent

"We liked that the property had the basics right- clean rooms, comfortable beds etc. We enjoyed the piano sessions in the evening in the common area. While you can’t just step out and be in downtown, it’s within reasonable walking distance if weather is good. One annoyance was that we always needed to carry a physical key with us instead of card or app."
