Property is in a great location near Bar Harbor and National Arcadia Park. They charged a daily Resort Fee and they were remodeling so many unavailable areas. They shouldn’t charge that fee to us while they are remodeling.

This property was under construction. There was no advance warning and they charged $500 per night. Over priced and under performing best describes the start. I understand the need to refurbish the property but a heads up would have been nice.

The hotel is currently under renovations, but they’ve done all the things to make the stay as comfortable as possible. It was pouring rain when we arrived and with the construction you can’t pull right up to the door to unload and a lovely young man offered us umbrellas and assistance while we unloaded our luggage. There were complimentary snacks upon arrival. Everything is new and clean. It all smelled fresh. Our room was superb with an amazing view. The water pressure in the shower was amazing and it was stocked with Dove shampoo/conditioner/body wash. Housekeeping came by daily to refresh our towels and tidy our room. The hotel was only a 5 minute drive from downtown Bar Harbor and dining. I’d definitely stay here again!

April 20th (under construction) We arrived at what we thought was the Holiday Inn Bar Harbor, but were instead met with an eerie silence. The signs were covered, as if hiding a secret. Construction vehicles sat abandoned like relics of a long-lost project. Not a soul in sight… until, in the distance, one friendly construction worker emerged from the shadows with a kind smile. There’d been no email, no phone call, no text, nothing to tell us the hotel was under renovation. Finally, a sign greeted us with cold indifference: “Your reservation has been upgraded to our sister property.” No directions, only questions and a phone number that, when dialed, offered no answer on the other end.
