During my stay, I enjoyed the stunning views of Frenchman's Bay, which were absolutely breathtaking. The location was perfect, allowing easy access to downtown Bar Harbor and local shops. While the staff were friendly and accommodating, the rooms could use a refresh, as some furnishings felt dated. The inclusion of a continental breakfast was nice, but the quality could be improved. Overall, it was a great experience, though the value for the price paid could be a consideration for future visits.

My stay at the Bar Harbor Inn was filled with beautiful views and a peaceful atmosphere.

The Bar Harbor Inn boasts stunning views of Frenchman's Bay and has a cozy, traditional vibe that enhances your stay. While the breakfast buffet exceeded expectations, I found our room location disappointing as it overlooked a parking lot instead of the beautiful water. Service was friendly but sometimes lacked efficiency, particularly during busy times. Overall, it’s a charming spot, although quite pricey for what it offers.

We had an incredible experience at Bar Harbor Inn with stunning views and exceptional service. Our room was cozy, and the dining at the Reading Room left us wanting to return for more. Although we encountered a bit of noise from a wedding reception, it didn't overshadow the overall enjoyment of our stay. The price reflects the quality, but it's a bit of a splurge.
