The Inn on Mount Desert

Great location

Beautiful Inn with wonderful New England charm. The location was perfect! Close enough to easily walk to the shops in downtown Bar Harbor, but distant enough to be removed from the downtown traffic and maintain a sense of quiet and calm. Great morning breakfasts too! We will come back for sure!

Parking can be tight, but expected given the limited space in the overall area. The staff was great, though, guiding us through where to park.

The location was perfect

Some of the maintenance was lacking attention but oils be taken care of after we brought it up.

We enjoyed a lovely three night stay at the Inn on Mount Desert! It has an amazing location -- a quick walk to town (5 minutes!), which makes coming and going simple and removes any stress of driving around the busy downtown area and paying for parking. The room was perfect for our family of 4 (2 queen beds). Breakfast was wonderful -- a choice of 2 entrees + other breakfast items (freshly baked muffins, cereal, yogurt, fruit) -- plus freshly baked treats were available in the afternoon. The staff was accommodating and kind. The Inn has simple touches that make it feel like home -- such a board games, a library of books, a billiard room, and a fantastic deck for dining and hanging. While it is not the most updated establishment (though not missing any needed amenities!), it appeared to be comparable to other inns that we saw around town. Would definitely book again if we were to return.
