The rooms were large, clean, and gorgeous. The view of the harbor was spectacular. It was conveniently located to the downtown area and Acadia National park. The piano player,Tim Trowell, was amazing. He is a must see! We would highly recommend this hotel and will be going back ourselves very soon.

Loved the view from the room. The staff we spoke to were friendly and helpful. Room decor was a little outdated but well maintained and clean. They need BIGGER font, better signage at the Eden Road. Too many small signs for too many hotels at same intersection / driveway.

This is more like a big hotel so, if you want the small inn or B&B feel, this place is not for you. Rooms were clean. Beds comfortable. Breakfasts at the restaurant at the top of the hill were very good with great views. Pool was outstanding.

My family and I loved this place. It’s very close to Acadia and the Village. The room was so clean and spacious. The balcony was quaint but the view, especially during sunrise was amazing. The only downside was there was no place to eat meals. We like to pack our breakfast and lunch meals to save money so the microwave and mini fridge helped. However, the only table was a coffee table and a business type desk. It would be nice to have a bigger kitchenette area given the room was so spacious and there’s more than enough room for even a corner dining table and two chairs. Overall, great place!

We had a wonderful time at the Bluenose. The rooms in the main building are spacious with a nice seating area with a love seat and two upholstered chairs. The staff is very friendly and gracious. Breakfast on The Looking Glass deck was excellent with wonderful views. Try and catch Bill Trowell on piano in the Great Room. We definitely recommend this property.

The venue was perfect. In a great location, clean and super helpful staff. The lounge was just what you need to relax, enjoy an adult beverage and listen to a fabulous pianist. Access to the shuttle pick up was hilly so be prepared to walk uphill a bit. The drawback was the noisy construction project across the driveway. There was a outdoor front seating area but to noisy to enjoy it.
