The Bar Harbor Grand was the perfect place for our stay. I was traveling with my sister and both of our husbands (kid-free trip), but there were a few families there with children who seemed to be enjoying themselves as well. The free breakfast in the morning was lively with the wait staff being very bubbly and attentive and we had fun conversations with other guests too. Eggs were served every morning along with biscuits, fruit, oatmeal, sourdough bread (my favorite) and all the juice, tea and coffee you could want (coffee and tea being available 24/7). The people behind the counter when we checked in, and then every morning after, were welcoming and always asking us how our stay was going, quick to answer any questions and offered travel and food suggestions. It felt more personal than staying at a big chain hotel, but had all the amenities of a big chain hotel. Parking was really easy and the hotel is walkable to just about most things in Bar Harbor: shops, restaurants, sightseeing. It's just a few minutes drive to get into Acadia and we also loved how close it was to the sandbar which is walkable during low tide and not to be missed! Oddly the only strange thing we could say about the hotel is that there seemed to be a female manager, tall and thin wearing a blazer, who occasionally zipped in and out of the eating area or stairwell and she was the least friendly person there. Everyone else was absolutely warm and welcoming the whole time! Luckily we only saw her twice.

Great choice close to Arcadia

Chose this on a whim for a solo vacation. Friendly staff. Onsite parking. Exercise and wash facilities. Lovely decor in keeping with the Victorian architecture. Quiet. Spacious room. Arcadia is 10 minutes away although the weather was bad this trip. Would choose again

The Grand Hotel, built 21 years ago is a replica of of another much older hotel in the area that was torn down. The new Grand is a fine example of older architecture, but with modern conveniences. Comfy large rooms that make for a very pleasant stay. The breakfast was set up exquisitely, great options, & was watched over by Joshua (nickname Ray) to greet the guests & make sure everything runs smoothly. We are here for 4 nights & would not hesitate to book this hotel again when in the area.

Fabulous Place to Stay

Check-in was a very pleasant experience. The lady was so friendly, welcoming and helpful. All areas of the hotel were immaculate and the decor was very inviting. Our room was huge, and tastefully decorated. The hotel was very quiet. The breakfast was very good with many options. There was plenty of parking. The hotel was in a very safe area. I would definitely stay here again. I would also highly recommend Bar Harbor Grand Hotel to everyone.
