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.

Old style resort- nice room, clean, comfortable- noisy upstairs- very loud ac unit. 20 minute walk from town. A shuttle service would have been nice.

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.
