Central House was lovely. The chocolate chip cookies and delicious apples were a treat. The proprietor was very kind and helpful. I expected it to be a Bed and Breakfast, however, and was surprised and disappointed that there was no breakfast!

Had a late check in, so Phil texted us where to park and had the room key set aside for us. He also helped us print out our park passes which was a relief!

The name is apt. You can comfortably walk to any of the restaurants or shops in the area. It is NOT a b&b but it doesn’t claim to be. The rooms are comfortable and the common areas are nice with coffee, tea and hot cocoa readily available. Parking is a premium asset and it was easily accessible. Loved the location and would recommend it to anyone.

Pros - GREAT location - you can walk to everything. Our room was medium in size. Bed was comfortable. Quiet and cool. All electronics/digital connections worked fine. Nice. comfortable porch for sitting reading, browsing on phone, etc. On site parking was fine; we didn't have to move our car at all.
Cons - Soap bars were postage stamp size. There was one waste basket - in the bathroom - 2 would be the minimum I would think. No recycling we could see. Electric outlets were hard to access and probably not enough for 2022. No USB charging outlets.
Cons are kinda picky but there are many other choices of where to stay. That said, we'd definitely stay there again. It's in the heart of Bar Harbor, which is one of our favorite places on earth.

Great experience at the Central House! Location was perfect and incredibly walkable to all restaurants shops and buses to Acadia Park. We enjoyed sitting on the porch in the evenings after a long day of hiking. Phil was very helpful and knowledgeable about the area! Would definitely recommend and stay again!

Great stay at The Central House. It is a lovely historic home, very clean and comfortable, in an amazing location to walk around Bar Harbor. Great access to Bar Harbor boat, bike and bus tours as well (all walkable). We were made to feel very at home from the moment we arrived. We'll be back..... and soon.

While old and charming, the Central House is very clean and well maintained. Phil the innkeeper is friendly and accommodating. He responded very quickly to my request to extend my stay. My only complaint is that my room was very warm with no way to control it in the room. After the first night however I worked it out by opening a window and using the ceiling fan.
5.0
Staying in such a historic part of Bar Harbor just seemed right when picking a spot to stay during this trip. Being in the heart of downtown, but just out of all the crowds made it the perfect fit. Loved having breakfast on the porch while the crowd got going along the street!

We absolutely loved our stay at The Central House! The staff was super accommodating and friendly. The rooms were very clean, well kept and we could tell they put care into the place. It was our first time traveling with our 16 month old, they set up a pack n play for us and provided an extra bed in our room for our kid. They also upgraded us to a bigger room because of the additional furniture. Location is prime!! Right in downtown Bar Harbor, everything was in a walkable range. We will definitely stay at The Central House when we come back to ME!

Front room is a little noisy with people on porch talking right next to your bedroom window.
Time to vacuum the molding and the vents on the floor!
