We stayed here for a long weekend the third week of October this past year. We had stayed here over the summer and had a great experience, sadly that was not the case this time around. I booked our stay directly from the hotel website, they were advertising a fall promotion, and the cost for the room was $129 per... More

I stayed 2 nights here in October because we couldn't get into the Bar Harbor Inn (it was filled). What luck for us! I was hesitant because some of the reviews were not great, and were told our room was going to face the parking lot, but we found our stay to be a wonderful experience. The room & bathroom... More

My wife and I have stayed at the Harborside several times in the past. Based on the quality of our previous stays we decided to book the hotel for our Bar Harbor wedding. Once again, we were not let down. The entire staff is truly dedicated to making your stay enjoyable and they enjoy conversing and sharing their own stories.... More

This quite expensive hotel has a lovely view of Bar Harbor (if you're on the right side) and pleasant service persons, e.g., bell persons etc. But for the price one should expect a mini-refrigerator so one can keep wine cool, an in-room coffee maker and similar niceties. I'd rather spend my dollars at a lovely B&B nearby (I'm sure you... More

My husband and I stayed here for our 34th anniversary and had a wonderful time. We had an Island View room with a great view, we even had a few nice days so we could sit on the balcony. Spacious rooms with two chairs and a pull-out couch, one thing I noticed the rooms were very quiet. The bed was... More

I stay at a lot of hotels, and I believe that I am able to judge luxury from consistent performing hotel and value from overpriced. This hotel is clearly overpriced without the expected luxury. Even with that AND the spa closed they still charged us $25 per day Resort fee in addition to the reduculous $399 per night. I will... More

Very nice, clean room with high-end, modern amenities. Helpful, friendly staff and nice restaurant on site. Loved hanging out by the fireplace in the lobby on a cool, rainy day. The bar staff in the restaurant were all extremely friendly and gave us great advice on things to do in the area. More

My husband and I stayed here while he attended a conference. Our ground-floor, harbor-view room was spacious and comfortable. The view was stunning. Couldn't sit on the cute patio due to rain and mist. Very comfortable bed; friendly staff. Lovely grounds. More

I don't know why this property gets so many bad reviews. My wife and I had to book kind of a short notice reservation (only two weeks prior to our stay). We booked an ocean front king room on a high floor and got exactly what we requested. The young man at front checked us in one hour prior to... More
