I wanted to love this property-great location, new, reasonably priced, includes breakfast and it has a parking garage! It seems to still be in its ‘shake down’ phase as a new hotel…service was spotty and breakfast was trying hard to be creative but wasn’t great. Basic room and amenities. Poor choice for hall and elevator carpeting - although only months old, its light color showed all the dirt and stains… Pathmaker tries hard and I’ll try them again in the future, once their systems are in place.
It was our first time in Bar Harbor so we didn't know what to expect. The Pathmaker Hotel was amazing: great location, nice rooms, good breakfast, we were very happy. We highly recommend it if you are looking for a place to stay in Bar Harbor.
Our stay was AMAZING! The staff was friendly and personable. There was plenty of off street parking which is a huge plus for downtown Bar Harbor. The room was clean and comfortable. I loved the mini size local hand soap that was in the bathroom. The included sit down breakfast was so delicious! It was decent portions, great selection and just on point. Will definitely be staying there again. I just can't say enough positives about this hotel and the staff.
Great boutique hotel. Our favorite on our 9 day trip. McKenzie, the Manager, was so personable and helpful. All the staff were cheerful, welcoming and friendly. First class breakfast! We want to return to Bar Harbor just to stay again in this hotel.
The breakfast was amazing, snacks and coffee / tea throughout the day, was never pestered. The beds were soft and the pillows were like sleeping on clouds. Best hotel i have stayed in so far!
Also last week of May their in-house restaurant with full bar will be opening!
Hotel was beautiful. The food is amazing and the breakfast is to serve restaurant style. They have a self serve coffee and tea station available 24/7. Plus after 2 pm they have treats available in the restaurant. While we were there it was a delicious pineapple upside down cake, sugar cookies, and chocolate chip cookies. All the staff we interacted with were kind and quick to help or provide information when asked. It's very close to the local shops and restaurants. They really go the extra mile with the small touches to customer service.
The Pathmaker Hotel is right in down town bar Harbor. It’s walking distance from everything! The hotel staff was great, the breakfast was phenomenal and the stay was modern and clean.
The whole experience was a joy and pleasure! From the moment you arrive with easy parking and wonderful staff checking in was a breeze! Everyone there was helpful and very polite to talk to. The room had everything you needed with extra perks, super soft bed and pillows. Breakfast was free and delicious! Then they offered an evening of fresh bakery treats with coffee. We were able to walk around the bar harbor area for food and shopping. Acadia National Park was very close to drive. Beautiful and peaceful trip.
Highly recommend this property. Upon arrival Akela greeted us with such a wonderful welcome. During our entire stay Mackenzie, the general manager took care of us with her charm and sweetness. Every morning, you have a made-to-order breakfast (we were served by Emily, a cheerful and professional staff), and from 3-6, you have an array of decadent, freshly-made sweets.
I had an amazing experience during my stay at this hotel. From the moment I arrived, the staff was welcoming and attentive. The room was spotless, spacious, and well-equipped with everything I needed. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and I appreciated the modern amenities. The location was perfect—close to great restaurants and attractions. Breakfast was delicious with a variety of options. I’ll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a comfortable and enjoyable stay!
