Love this cute hotel
All staff from the front desk to the kitchen breakfast crew were very friendly and helpful. We arrived early and the front desk lady set us up with brownies and a game to play while we were waiting. Its a hotel that feels like a bed and breakfast. The location is excellent for shopping and food. The included breakfast was very good.

The Inn on Mount Desert was a wonderful place to stay for 3 days while we visited Bar Harbor. Impeccably furnished and comfortable. Breakfast was delicious and hot drinks were available all day and evening. The family and I really enjoyed ourselves and would definitely return when we come back to hike in Acadia!
