Holiday Inn Resort Bar Harbor - Acadia Natl Park, an IHG Hotel

I’m convinced any good review on this place is done by people who live in dumpsters. This hotel is horrible. I paid for an ocean view room. The room looked directly onto the pool. Not the ocean. How can you lie and tell people it’s an ocean view room, provide a picture when booking online that shows the room directly looking at the ocean and try to say the pool with screaming children in it is ocean view?! I expressed how they lied and ripped me off and they did nothing. The bathroom smells like mildew and is gross. We were freezing and tried to turn the heat on. It instantly smelled like something was on fire and was unbearable. We had to turn it off. There are stains all over the hallway carpets like many people have vomited and they didn’t bother to ever clean it. Breakfast was included but service was horrible. I would get seated and have to wait 10 minutes just for coffee. There’s nothing at this hotel. If you needed anything at all you have to drive to the overcrowded downtown and drive around for an hour to find a parking space. One of the guests decided to harass me because obviously only miserable people stay at this place. Apparently this person was upset that I parked appropriately. between the lines without obstructing any other space. I will never stay here again. I don’t want to be in a disgusting room that I was lied to about and paid too much for in a place full of trash people. DO NOT STAY HERE.

What a relaxing place slightly out of town from Bar Harbor. The view of the bay is beautiful! The kids loved the outdoor heated pool while we enjoyed the view and a cocktail at the tiki bar. This was a bit more than we usually spend but worth it. The staff are very friendly and accommodating and they have wonderful amenities. We definitely took advantage of the complementary shuttle to and from town that runs every 15 min and the laundry service. We will definitely stay again.

I haven't left yet however what a great experience. All of the staff are very professional . Grounds are clean and inviting. Could be updated a bit, but all over I would definitely stay here again. Pool is very well organized with acomindating needs. I will recommend this hotel to any one needing to get out and see Maine. Yes it is a resort however the easy access to all the nature is all around. Very impressive.

We stayed in an ocean view room and the scenery was beautiful. We were able to take nice, short walks around the property. There is a local bus that will take you around (one stop was Acadia National Park). We didn't utilize the bus, but it was available. Staff was very nice and food at the restaurant was decent and not overly priced. I would stay there again if I went to Bar Harbor.
