Bar Harbor Stay
The hotel was very comfortable and central to everything. Since it is off season, they didn't have housekeeping in for a couple of days, but I'm sure it's better when in season. The staff were friendly and helpful! The room was nice and comfortable!

The Acadia Hotel was everything we wanted it ti be. It was very clean, with super helpful staff. We went during the off season, so not all of the restaurants were open and the hotel staff helped up find ones that were. Very friendly folks!

The staff was very helpful and courteous with check-in and check-out. Coffee available 24/7 was most appreciated. The location was perfect for visiting Acadia NP and for walking the downtown area for dining and shopping. Everything was perfect!

Great location near shopping and running options. Park your car and walk downtown Bar Harbor right from your room! Too bad you can hear noise from the upstairs room.

This hotel was not a hotel. The rooms were like a reg bedroom and very roomy and comfortable. It is close to all we wanted to do. Totally recommend this business.
