Spacious room, walkable to Bar Harbor, easy parking, excellent breakfast. Encourage management to be a bit more flexible on special requests, particularly as the hotel is new and building its reputation (e.g. pillows were hard and high, with no offered alternatives).

Beautiful new hotel, spacious and clean room at off season rate, free parking, able to walk into Bar Harbor. Breakfast was good, a little on the small side but delicious and included in room rate.

This is a wonderful new hotel which I am confident will receive mostly positive reviews. The details in the décor especially in the lobby and restaurant bar area are beautiful. Being here off season there were not a lot of options to go out, but I was happy to stay in and enjoy the view from my cozy 3rd floor room. The morning breakfast is a fine dining experience with the most beautiful morning light and is included in your stay. Book a room before they sell out. Hannafords across the street for snacks, fridge in the room, underground parking, walk everywhere and enjoy the beautiful town of Bar Harbor .

High quality workmanship in building structure ! Excellent staff. Wonderful food. Cozy!! I will go there every time I go to bar harbor, this was my 1st time. And because of the way we were treated. I will go again, and again. We”re from Las Vegas and it’s hard to wow us. But the path maker did that for sure!!!
