The Inn on Mount Desert

Location was great! A good location for all things Acadia! Could walk downtown and explore the area. Drove to parks because Acadia is huge, but the hotel was in a nice central, safe area. Room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was excellent but a little crowded on the weekend (waited for a place to sit and eat). This was off season so I can only imagine how crowded it gets during prime time/summer hours. Perhaps people can spill out on patio and that makes it more spacious. Front desk staff were very accommodating and friendly, taking the time to tell us about the area and things to do off-season. Rooms were comfortable and a little loud at night (could hear other guests up late) but felt safe. Would definitely stay again!

This modern inn replaced an older hotel on the same site that had been owned by the same family for many years. It is within easy walking distance to the main shopping and dining streets of Bar Harbor, and of the town docks. A full breakfast was included, with hot food prepared to order, and served in a nice breakfast room. Our room had two king beds and was spacious and clean. There is a billiard room with some fitness equipment, and a nice outside garden {although it was raining during our stay and not used by us}. Bar Harbor is normally crowded with tourists through much of the year, but during our early April visit few people were around. Several good restaurants were open, however.

Amazing stay. At checkin we learned that we were upgraded to a deluxe room on the fourth floor. The room was great. Quiet and comfortable. Breakfast was superb, including 2 choices each day. My wife had the best frittata she has ever had (with spinach, tomatoes) while I had great blueberry pancakes; we both had oatmeal the second day, and she had the scrambled eggs with cheese while I had french toast the third day. A great way to start the day. We also enjoyed the afternoon snacks after our days of hiking in the nearby Acadia National Park.Location was amazing, We loved walking downtown (and not having to pay to park). My wife and I have been married for 42 years. We have stayed at 20 different places in Bar Harbor from campgrounds to B&B's. She said. that this is the best place I have ever taken her.

The Inn on Mount Desert was a treat. I stayed there on Christmas Eve, and was able to walk the Coastal Path twice, and a short walk, about 2.5 blocks, brought me past two churches preparing for evening services, to a charming boutique, Sagegrass Gallery, that was open, and the town itself, with its window fronts so creatively adorned for the season. The room had everything designed for comfort, convenience, and cleanliness. I especially liked the modern bathroom heating. Breakfast was served restaurant style, and was also excellent.

We had a wonderful stay! The room is bright and airy. We were happy to opt for the balcony room and enjoyed the beautiful weather. The staff could not have been friendlier. Breakfast was delicious and a great way to start the day. We loved the location ... close enough to walk to downtown but away from the fray. And being 5 minutes from Acadia was the best.
