They make you feel right at home. We booked a room for 2 nights so we could tour the area and they upgraded us because they had space. Great service and clean rooms.

Great free breakfast with a couple options. The room was very nice and the property was well-maintained. It was situated just off the main road towards one end of the strip, so you’re away from most of the hustle and bustle and won’t get a lot of noise from outside. That being said, it was only about a 3-5 minute walk to get to the downtown area where all of the action is, so it felt like the perfect in-between.

This inn was the perfect place to stay in Bar Harbor during our trip to Acadia National Park! The inn was very clean, cozy, and charmingly decorated. Staff were so kind and helpful. Meals were delicious and accommodating to preferences/dietary restrictions. The homemade baked goods that awaited us after long hikes were the cherry on top. I hope to stay here again!

We were so excited for breakfast and coffee every day! The chef, Crystal, kept us supplied with delicious treats at tea time. Our favorite was the olive, cheese, & sun dried tomato bread. (But the cinnamon muffins were a close second). The room was clean and quiet and the bed was so cozy. Thank you to Hearthside for providing us a beautiful and peaceful honeymoon stay!

Really nice place! We found safe parking in front and absolutely loved our room. The young gentleman that checked us in was very nice and helpful. The chef the next morning made us a delicious meal. This place was very close to downtown and we just walked the block to lots of places to show, sightsee, or eat. Would definitely recommend and stay here again.

Very welcoming

Food was delicious and plentiful. Baked goods and lemonade available every afternoon, plus fruit and baked goods always out for takeaway. Staff was so friendly and always available. Two floors of steep stairs could be a challenge.

The service and food were both great at this property to start on a positive note. However the property itself is not well maintained. Carpet is pretty gross and covered in stains, wood needs maintenance and towels were stained yellow. For the upwards cost of $500 we were not impressed by the condition of the Inn. We usually book hotels and resorts based on reviews and with excellent reviews we were sadly disappointed by this one.
