Wonder-ful
The room was spacious, clean and had a wider-ful view of the ocean. Staff were extremely pleasant and helpful. Would definitely stay here again.

Property was nice location between bar harbor and the entrance for Acadia. The motel was clean but dated-as expected, but not at all worth the price per night. Plenty of parking on facilities but spots are varied in angles and ends up trapping vehicles in so be careful. For just a place to sleep it was decent.

Had a lovely weekend stay at Wonder View Inn with my friends and our dog. The facility felt more like a resort, with a friendly staff, great amenities and a sprawling layout. We walked in to Bar Harbor and it was a short drive to Acadia. It was quiet and nice that the rooms were stand alone as opposed to lugging everything through elevators and hallways. Would absolutely stay again!

This location was very well situated in the area - a pleasant 1 mile walk into Bar Harbor (or you can take the shuttle) and a stone's throw from Acadia NP. Our room was clean, the staff very friendly and attentive. The check-in lobby was a great combination of font desk, hotel convenience shop and the lounge (with live music). Everything functioned fine in the room and the bed was very comfortable -- but over all the rooms are in need of a little TLC touchup. I would return to this location if/when I find myself in the area again.

Everything was great about my stay. The room was NOT a shoe box, including a nice big bathroom. It was super close to the park, and walking distance to downtown Bar Harbor. If I go back, this is hands down where I'm staying! The restaurant for breakfast was fantastic!

Our room was on the first floor. A family with 2 noisy kids and a very large active dog were on the second floor directly above us for the nights we were there. Needless to say, we had several sleepless nights. Definitely not the fault of management, but it would have been nice had we known in advance so that we could have booked a room on the 2nd floor instead.

A nice, older motel situated on large grounds with other properties -- hotel, apartments, etc. Our small room (chosen for price if we're being honest) was outdated a bit, but very clean. The weather was being so cooperative during our short stay, so we did not get to enjoy the large lawns and beautiful views. The ladies at the Blue Nose Inn, where we had to check in, were very kind and friendly. I don't believe the cleaning staff spoke English, but their work cleaning was good and I did manage to relay our request for more coffee pods!

Nice clean place. The Looking Glass was a nice and convenient place to walk up to for breakfast. Parking and driving in and out was kinda tight. I drive a Ford F-150. Just wish they would cut the trees down so you can see the harbor from the room/deck. I would stay here again though!

We had a room with two queen beds. Very spacious and easily accommodated room for the additional roll away we needed. Nice little patio. Had a problem with our key and staff were very quick to respond and resolve. Due to our busy schedule, we were not able to take advantage of pool, but it looked lovely. Could not ask for a more convenient location. Easy walk to town but the island shuttle picks up/ drops off right at property as well. Would definitely stay here again.

This is an outdated, basic lodging option near Bar Harbor downtown (which is actually the only positive of the place). Service was truly limited as management and staff are located on another building (the Bluenose). Room service was truly limited, and cleaners forgot to visit our room twice. There are no dining facilities nearby, only one restaurant on the premises which is open only for breakfast.

Perfect location for exploring both Bar Harbor (short walk) and Acadia (less than a mile by bike to the carriage paths). Breakfast restaurant on the grounds (Looking Glass) is delicious and features an unparalleled view. The setup of the hotel is more a motel format, but our room was quiet and the beds comfy. Great, friendly staff; check-in and -out were no problem. Our only issues were a few small glitches in the room: the safe wasn't reset (thus unusable); the shower door wouldn't stay closed; some fruit flies in the sink. One day was cold and wet (for the summer) and when we tried the heat, it was super-smelly and dusty. Many of these issues could have been quick fixes if we'd bothered mentioning them, but they weren't a big deal. Upon check-out, when we told the front desk about the heat, they were eager to fix it and made a note for maintenance. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again - the location is absolutely perfect. We're pretty low-maintenance travelers, so if you're one that likes to complain about every small inconvenience, you might not love it. We'd choose it again, though!
