Lovely unique restored house. Each room was different decor. Ours was a Japanese print with Geishas and cats. Lovely hot breakfast served. Comfortable bed, but the bathroom door hinges need oiling as it was really squeaky every time you went into the bathroom at night

The Inn is just a short drive out of Bar Harbor. It's a beautiful old building that is well kept. Staff are friendly and very helpful. Breakfasts are outstanding and varied! Only thing to watch is if you are on the 3rd floor. There is no elevator and the stairs are very steep and narrow. If you cannot carry your luggage, this might be a problem for you. Otherwise, wonderful stay and wonderful property.

Beautiful Place, Better Staff!

We really enjoyed our two-night stay here at the Cleftstone Inn - in particular, a big shout-out to the staff, Anita, Marina, and Steffen. They were very helpful and knowledgeable about the Bar Harbor area for restaurants and sightseeing recommendations. Although a short stay for us, we highly recommend staying here if you're going to Bar Harbor and the Acadia National Park!

This was a perfect place to explore, without the hubbub of being downtown. Every person who works here has a smiling face, the woman even called me to make sure I was ok because I hadn’t checked in by 7:45 PM (though the check-in is open till 10 PM). This made me smile after for a long day in the car, and started off my stay on a good foot. Breakfast was yummy, my room was perfect, a really great night sleep. I appreciate the windows opened in the hotel, I would choose my room again in a heartbeat (9) with the only downside being the TV should really be on a swivel as it’s awkwardly mounted flat above a fireplace I would go here in a heartbeat again, I will recommend it to my family

A Perfect Bar Harbor Escape Our stay at Cleftstone Inn was absolutely enchanting. The historic charm of the property, paired with its warm, welcoming atmosphere, made us feel instantly at home. Our room was beautifully appointed and impeccably clean, with thoughtful touches that showed true care for guests. Breakfast each morning was a delight, fresh, flavorful, and served with genuine hospitality. The location was ideal for exploring Acadia and downtown Bar Harbor, yet wonderfully peaceful at night. We left feeling relaxed, pampered, and already dreaming of our return.
