Bluenose Inn

Great stay at the Bluenose Inn (Mizzentop) in Bar Harbor. This was our first trip to Bar Harbor and Acadia, and we were not disappointed! Our room had lots of extra space, a fireplace, and a balcony from which there were excellent views of the bay and surrounding mountains. There is some construction going on on the street outside the hotel, but we could not hear any noise and the staff was extremely helpful in getting us around the roadblocks and in to town. There is also a shuttle bus that will take you for free into the park and to the downtown/waterfront area. Several days after we checked out, we realized we had left some items in the closet - after a phone call to the front desk, the staff located the items and mailed them to our home - they were waiting for us when we arrived home from our vacation! Excellent service and value. We will be back.

We had a very nice stay at Bluenose Inn in July. The view from the room was lovely, the room was spacey, well maintained and cleaned. Staff was friendly and the outdoor pool was a treat on a hot July morning. As a European and accustomed to decent hotel breakfasts, I would have expected a (much) better complimentary breakfast for a hotel in this price range, though.

Lovely hotel with many buildings. Get a room on the 3rd floor for an excellent view (when the fog allows). Room was clean and comfortable. Very comfortable king sized bed - plush carpet - large room - updated bathroom. Indoor pool is beautiful and not too cold - steam room was great. Looking Glass Restaurant on site. Pianio player in the lobby bar in the evening. Cookies in the lobby in the afternoon. Pleasant staff. Walk to downtown Bar Harbor - about a mile+ - but it is uphill on the way home. The hotel offers a shuttle to and from downtown Bar Harbor - (which also connects to other areas such as Acadia National Park). Simple continental breakfast includes sausage and bacon. Lovely hotel.
