It was a good one night stay experience at Dan and Joan’s place. The suite is big, clean and cozy. It’s on the side of the building and has its own entrance which provides us more privacy. The living room is big so we got enough space for our luggages. The bed is super comfortable, like it a lot.

Wonderful stay!

We had a wonderful stay at this B&B. The property itself is absolutely gorgeous and beautifully maintained. The hosts were polite, warm, and very well-informed, offering plenty of helpful tips and recommendations—every suggestion we followed turned out to be spot on. Check-in was smooth and hassle-free. The food was delicious, served right on time, and really added to the overall experience. Overall, a perfect blend of comfort, hospitality, and charm. Highly recommended!

Perfect location for walking to Main St. and enjoying all of the shops and restaurants. Also, minutes to drive to Acadia and access the beautiful National Park. Apartment with full kitchen (Raven's Nest) was great for preparing a couple of meals. The king size bed was so comfortable and the shower had great pressure. The built-in window seat for two was lovely for relaxing and reading. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to others.

We stayed 4 nights at Chiltern Inn in July. What a gorgeous property! We felt like royalty on vacation. Our room was charming and cozy. All rooms in the house were beautifully decorated with elegant furniture, antiques, and delightful artworks. All amenities were clean and well taken care of. Our hosts, Joan and Dan were very kind and caring- a wonderful hot breakfast was served every morning, a complimentary wine was waiting the guests in afternoon; their knowledge of Bar Harbor and Acadia NP were vast and their enthusiasm for activities contagious. We enjoyed our stay very much. Thank you very much.

The free breakfast is a homemade breakfast by the owner! Local and fresh ingredients. One morning was an omelette, another was blueberry pancakes with Maine blueberries and maple syrup. The owners are happy to suggest ideas for your time in and around Acadia for anything you might want to do.

Great space in Bar Harbor

The room was great, spacious living area. Kitchenette was a great plus (even though we didn’t use it). Only concern I had was how thin the walls were and the creaking floors. Even though that is part of its charm, I prefer not to wake the neighbors when I get up to use the restroom at night.

Weekend Getaway

My first time in Bar Harbor and I think that th Chiltern is perfectly located! It's located close to the entrance of Acadia but it was also very easy to walk into town for dinner each night. Dan was very knowledgeable about the area and recommended some great things to do/see. We did many of them! The breakfasts Joan made each morning were all delicious and you have the option of eating in the dining room or getting room service for this meal. The Inn is beautiful and was lovely to return to each evening. While there are certain things that could be modernized (showerheads), it was comfortable enough that we will be booking here again when we return to the area!
