Top Naturalist's Notebook Hotel Reviews

Kimball Terrace Inn Northeast Harbor

10/10 Excellent

"Great location to go through Acadia national park. Nice botanical gardens to go through and quaint downtown with restaurant and bakery. Restaurant on site was very good. We had breakfast and dinner there. Nice view of Harbour."

Seasider Motel

10/10 Excellent

"This is the basic motel that is the perfect base for exploring Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. Why? - free parking - excellent location that is only an eight minutes stroll from the center of Bar Harbor. - you were located nearly at the entrance of Acadia National Park. - there is free bottled water and coffee served all day and night - the rooms are basic, but have hard surface flooring that is very clean (no dirty carpeting)… A comfortable bed… and a very clean bathroom with great shower pressure. While the other hotels are fancier in the area… This was perfect for the price In the evening, I recommend taking the four- minute drive over to the Blue Nose Inn for an old-school opulent bar that has piano music nearly every evening"

Harbourside Inn

8/10 Good

"When checking in we were told there would be breakfast Continental from 7:00 - 9:00, when we came down the plates labeled Muffins and Quiche were both empty and no one was around to refill it. Another guest commented the same frustration to me. I'd rather not be given the expectation if they weren't going to support I."
