Amazing
AMAZING!! This hotel is one of the best hotels we have ever visited. The rooms are gorgeous, clean and spacious. We loved our view of the bay, the fireplace, the separate living room and the bathroom was so spacious! The people were so friendly and warm. Nancy, who cleaned our room, was the best. She reminded me of my mom, a warm and friendly caregiver who is so sweet! We will never stay anywhere else in Bar Harbor but The Bluenose Inn. Also, they have a fantastic musician who plays the grand piano every night, Bill Trowell. Love this Inn!

Amazing Find in Bar Harbor
What a great hotel!!! We had so much space, a balcony with a view, and our king sized bed was incredibly comfortable. We also had a fireplace which was awesome for getting cozy by after long days in Acadia, and a massage chair (!!!) which also came in handy after long hikes. The Great Room was so much fun to hang out in for drinks before bed, and had a wonderful pianist. Was one of the best hotels we ever stayed in. 10/10 would stay there again.
Huge suite!
We got a massage chair!
Sweet balcony for morning coffee and late night beers

We stayed in room 347. The view was absolutely amazing. We had taken a walk and the trials were easy to see along with being well lit but not over doing it. Staff was very nice and through.
