I selected this hotel based upon it's alleged luxury status, but it is anything but. And it is not cheap. The room was large, but there was a huge crack running across the ceiling. There is no minibar in the rooms and no turndown service. It is also extremely noisy. In their bar, the martinis were watered down. We had to ask for bar snacks ...

After driving most of the day we were extremely tired and decided to inquire on prices. The minute I walked in the lobby I knew it was going to be a very pricey establishment and we probably would be looking further for a place to stay. I WAS WRONG!!! Very affordable, very swanky, and the rooms were fantastic. I am not sure what happened during ...

from the portly, blonde, pompus assistant manager to the young brown haired hotel manager (who drives a jeep and nearly ran me over)? they and this place are a joke. the concierge shares incorrect information, the rooms are furnished with cheap, made in china furniture, you can hear someone sneeze in the next room, and the food is barely edible ...

We loved the location of Harborside. The fact that we were able to park the car and not return to it was fantastic. We could walk everywhere. The views were great.

The only negative would be that we had a first floor room above the pool and it was very noisy outside our balcony and in the hallways.

What can I say - after all the hype I expected more. I wouldn't say this is a family friendly hotel - consierge (oaky, I know I spelled it wrong) gave us bad information.

The entire 7 day experience was delightful....staff is excellent...we have been going there since the hotel opened 4 years ago...room service for breakfast was excellent and On-time...bathroom was extremely clean...bed was very comfortable and the balcony was great...Spa services were very excellent...great staff and very professional....I found ...

This is the NICEST place to stay in Bar Harbor. The staff was great and friendly and we could not have been treated any better. I dont know how anyone could complain about this place, it's incredible. The rooms are great and ocean front rooms are the best view on the Island. We had a room overlooking the pool and then a wide view of the harbor, ...

We enjoyed our two days at the Harborside Hotel and Marina. Our room was lovely, beautiful tile bathroom, and nice deck. The people working at the hotel were very helpful and plesant. Wonder about the dining facilities being in another building up the street. Not exactly user friendly for older people or people with physical handicaps. Would go back, though.

The location is perfect right in town yet directly on the beautiful ocean. The rooms are decorated incredibly and the food is delicious. It is very close to the whale watching boats and the Bar Harbour Club. We had a delicious dinner there and the desert was out of this world.
