Independent, Mount Desert hotels

"The staff was friendly, the location was very convenient, and the room was comfy and clean!😀🤓😎"

"Great stay at Seasider. The snack bar was a huge bonus! Manager was great in changing our reservation when the ferry was cancelled. Very walkable to everything. Would definitely recommend. "

"The staff was extremely polity and understanding. They changed our room to a quieter one despite the peak season. The cleaning service was very neat and reliable. "

"Our room was large, clean and comfortable. It was on the upper floor in the Ocean View building and the view was wonderful. Parking was easy and the Island Explorer stopped at a nearby building regularly. (We toyed with catching the bus at the neighboring Hampton Inn, which might be even closer.) We walked into Bar Harbor several times. We didn't try the restaurants on the Wonder View/Blue Nose property. We also didn't visit the gym or the pools. The gift shop in the Blue Nose is very nice as were the staff we encountered throughout our stay. Our only complaint was with the water temperature in our shower. It fluctuated wildly during a shower, which could be chilling or scorching without warning."

"We loved our room especially with the wallpaper, which suited it perfectly. Christopher at the front desk was a delight and font of information, and it was wonderful to have a reserved parking spot for our room. The room was spotless with some of the best pillows we’ve ever encountered on a trip. It was an easy walk to several restaurants and also to Main Street. The front desk also helped us make last minute reservations for accessing Cadillac Mountain, though the weather was not in our favor. We plan on returning to Bar Harbor, and want to stay in Room 3 again!"

"The place was amazing. Extremely peaceful and near to Acadia National Park. The people were really nice and friendly. "

"We enjoyed our stay and the spectacular views. The cabin was cozy and well kept. The staff was very responsive and polite. My suggestions would be for a small microwave (couldn't reheat leftovers), comfortable chair inside the cabin and maybe an inside door lock to secure the door. Enjoyed Bar Harbor and small venues locally."

"Convenient to everything and the staff was helpful. "

"Excellent location-walking distance to restaurants and stores. You can walk to Acadia trails or the Village Green to take the free shuttle up to Acadia. "
