Spacious, modern, well kept room and comfortable bed. Staff were very friendly and helpful with info about the area. Best hotel breakfast with both hot and cold options, baked goods and healthy options. Nice lay out of motel buildings with a shared pool, fire pit, and playground. Good location for families with board games, treats and activities, and evening movies in the main building.

Loved, loved, loved, our stay here!!

We loved Bar Harbor Motel!!! The rooms were clean, they had a cute retro theme. The staff was so friendly and helpful. Answered all our questions, if they didn’t know, they would find out and come tell us. They suggested a place for dinner and even called up and made reservations for us. They had activities every day. S’mores by the campfire, make your own trail mix. There were chairs and a table outside of each room. It was so nice sitting outside and talking with the other guests. The shuttle bus stop to go downtown was right out front. They had postcards of their motel sitting on the check in counter, they were free and even had postage! I love sending postcards!!! I was able to stick them in their mailbox. I can’t say enough of how wonderful the Bar Harbor Motel is.

Cute renovated motel by Acadia National Park

The motel was great, the staff, location and cute rooms were perfect for our two day getaway in Acadia National Park. The free shuttle stops right in front of the hotel taking you to downtown Bar Harbor (recommend because parking downtown is not as available and costs money), but the stretch is also not too bad to walk. The breakfast was very good, lots of selection but I’d suggest to get there before 7:30 am to beat the morning rush.

I enjoyed the old camp ground vibe that the place gave. It felt more family oriented. You’re really close to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. There’s also boat tours across the street! The perfect place to stay when you’re visiting Acadia.

This place was great for families! It's decorated retro style, we had two bedrooms with cute Acadia NP art, and loved the continental breakfast with lots of options because we were eating out so much, was nice way to start the day! Close to downtown and on the bus line, also had a pool and multiple playscapes and toys for kiddos, not to mention smores and other activities. Also the staff was always helpful and friendly.
