Location and Access

Acadia Hotel is centrally located in downtown Bar Harbor, on Mount Desert Island, Maine, amid galleries, restaurants, and boutiques. The hotel is within two blocks of 200 shops and galleries, the waterfront, and Acadia National Park. College of the Atlantic is 1 mile away. Hancock County-Bar Harbor Airport is 25 km away. Several bus companies offer service to Bangor, with shuttles to Bar Harbor.

Hotel Services

Featured amenities include a 24-hour front desk, a computer station, and a safe deposit box at the front desk. The hotel offers concierge services, complimentary wireless Internet access, and gift shops/newsstands. The hotel has a direct barrier route from a private handicap parking space to the accessible lobby, elevator, and in-house food and beverage service. An accessible entrance with a wide pathway leads to the front desk. The hotel will accommodate special requests to the extent reasonably available.

“The location in downtown Bar Harbor makes it ideal for exploring Acadia National Park and the town's numerous restaurants. I noted the hotel offers unique accessibility features, alongside complimentary bike rentals-appealing for active exploration. The quirky inn ambiance with personalized service seems to provide a different experience. However, some operational issues have been reported, such as breakfast readiness and room maintenance.”
