Hotel Asticou Inn (Bar Harbor, USA)

This hotel is set on beautiful private grounds with harbour views where you can relax and unwind. You're just a short drive away from Acadia National Park and downtown Bar Harbor, where you'll find lots of restaurants, bars and eclectic shops, is close at hand. All of the area's must-see attractions are within easy reach.

The staff at this hotel is friendly and accessible. They welcome you in with a smile and their can-do attitude makes all the difference in your stay. Knowledgeable about the area, they can easily offer recommendations for restaurants, shopping and sight-seeing in the area.

Guests rave about the breakfast at this Inn. The ingredients are fresh and the selections are plentiful and absolutely scrumptious. The staff helps get your day off to a great start with their sunny attitudes and wonderful service.

Unfortunately, the walls and ceilings here are rather thin which may cause you to have a less than quiet stay. Not only can you hear the goings on in the room next to you but the sound of footsteps above your head could keep you awake.

The bathrooms are on the small side which could be inconvenient if you are travelling with more than one person or need extra room to manoeuvre. The bathrooms could also use an update as fixtures that need replacing could detract from your stay.

Things can get stuffy in the guest rooms during warm weather, as they do not have air conditioning. The windows do open, which can bring some relief, but if it's hot outside, this may make things worse.
