Quick trip to Bar Harbor

We were looking for a nice, convenient hotel in the heart of Bar Harbor for our one night stay before heading to Nova Scotia on the ferry. From The Bar Harbor Grand, everything is walkable which is so convenient during the busy summer months. The rooms are large, comfortable and well appointed. Breakfast in the AM is an added bonus. It is a nice treat to stay here and will do so again in the future.

This was an absolutely wonderful experience. We would stay here anytime. Friendly staff, very clean hotel, large and very comfortable room in a fantastic location. A short walk to the waterfront, surrounded by restaurants, shopping and activities. Very close to several Acadia entrances. Coffee 24/7 and an outstanding included breakfast. We were able to utilize laundry facilities half way through our 2.5 week travels while staying here. We really cannot say enough!

Our room and the entire property was very clean. The bed was comfortable. There were plenty of nice amenities. There were a few options for breakfast and all were delicious. The best part was sitting in the rockers on the expansive front porch! We had coffee on the porch in the morning and wine in the evening. I would definitely come back to this hotel.

Outstanding luxury hotel. Rooms reminded me of the DC Fairmont before the Fairmont was acquired by a hotel conglomerate and went to the dogs. Staff was excellent, as well. Perfect location for enjoying Bar Harbor and Acadia. Free onsite parking was great. Included continental breakfast was good, but pretty standard. Dozens of Restaurants and shops within easy walking distance.
