Gem on south Main st
Pros:

Walkable to everything, but away from some of the north end congestion. Lovely hotel, well maintained, and clean. Good Continental breakfast included. The room was well appointed with towels, glassware, and robes. No complaints at all, would stay again.

Pros:

Det ligger centralt och det är gångavstånd till allt i centrala Bar Harbor. Rummet var stort och rymligt, även för en familj. Frukosten var god med många alternativ.

A grand place to stay
Pros:

A great, quiet stay before the season starts. The hotel was very nice with comfortable beds and a very welcoming staff. Breakfast was great too. The off season price made the stay feel like a little luxury.

Will be coming back!
Pros:

All of the staff were very friendly, two standouts were Alecea at the front desk and Melissa, who cleaned the rooms. I love the fresh flowers all over, the landscaping, the location, the breakfast was better than I expected. I enjoyed little touches like the cutlery being environmentally friendly. I loved them putting out a trail mix bar certain days.
