This place is wonderful. It's quiet (on a side street), but everything in downtown Bar Harbor is walkable. Wonderful gourmet breakfast and super helpful staff. We look forward to coming back again soon.

Hearthside Inn was a perfect spot to stay in Bar Harbor for our visit to Acadia National Park. Comfortable and quiet, delicious breakfast entrees each morning, and very friendly staff/hosts. Street parking is scarce in Bar Harbor, so being able to leave the car parked here for easy walks into town for dinners and shopping was a bonus!

Our two night stay was very enjoyable. The staff were welcoming and friendly, the bed and bedding was luxurious (to me anyway) and everything was super clean. Treats are offered every afternoon (brownies, cookies and the like) along with coffee or tea and each morning we were offered the choice of a savory or sweet option for breakfast. The breakfasts were delicious and ample! If we find ourselves in Bar Harbor again I can’t think of a single reason to look for any other place to stay. Loved it!

You can’t go wrong with the Hearthside Inn! The staff were superb. The Inn is so charming considering the age of the home. As a solo female traveler, I felt very safe there and around Bar Harbor. The Inn is ideally located within easy walking distance of the downtown area so you can leave your vehicle parked there. Breakfast was delicious & the room was CLEAN! If I had to give one thing to improve on, it would be the squeaky bedroom doors as that’s quite disturbing when guests using the hall bathroom are continually coming & going from their room (at a very early & late hour). That being said, I would absolutely stay at The Hearthside Inn again!
