Fun place, great location

Two Cats Inn was charming, in a great spot right in Bar Harbor, and the included breakfasts from the restaurant were delicious and filling. Lovely stay! We rented both the Samson and the Georgia room and enjoyed both.

Delightful stay and centrally located

2 Cats Inn was the perfect choice for us. The room was very comfortable, spacious and clean. Check-In was easy. Breakfasts are awesome. The hotel is within easy walking distance of Bar Harbor waterfront, restaurants and shops. We especially enjoyed all the clever cat-themed decor. Highly recommended.
