We really enjoyed our stay, the room was clean and the hotel staff were nice and courteous. What was most unexpected was how quiet the hotel was. The hotel is very conveniently located close to downtown and also other areas of interest within walking distance. Thanks to the Bluenose Hotel for a very pleasant stay.

We stayed in the Bluenose section of this complex. The rooms were nice, clean and comfortable. Our room had a view of the water, but was not on the water. The desk staff were friendly and check in and out was easy. We ate breakfast at the Looking Glass which was nice. Bill, the entertainment in the bar area was awesome and the bartender was great. Try the blueberry martini!!!The bar area was relaxing after a long day exploring. We enjoyed our stay here.

We loved our stay at the Bluenose! It's a beautiful location. We purposely chose the water view and I'm so glad that we did. The way it's set up on the hill is perfect for seeing out into the bay. The room was spacious and comfortable. We loved the restaurant and the neighboring hotel for breakfast one morning. We otherwise kept snacks and breakfast items in our room refrigerator. Be sure to listen to the pianist who plays in the bar lobby area most nights. We enjoyed chatting with him and hearing him play everything by ear! All of the staff we encountered were very friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay here again! We also loved the handy bus that goes right from the parking lot to the downtown area of Bar Harbor - super helpful, as the parking downtown is crazy. The bus system is amazing and goes into Acadia and surrounding areas. Use it!
