Will not recommend or stay here again

We were deeply disappointed in this stay at this hotel. It was very expensive and definitely not worth the money. The first night our air conditioner did not work and it was a debacle trying to check in. The guy at the front desk barely made eye contact. He tried to give us a dumpy room the first time then he tried to put us around the back of the property the second time and I finally asked for a specific room around the front and we were able to get that but what an ordeal to get a decently placed room. When the air conditioner went out during the night and we reported it the next day, the girl at the front desk could not be disturbed from her phone and kept telling us to go reset it. We finally insisted that they send a maintenance man out there. The maintenance man, Joe, was the only bright star in the whole ordeal. He was very friendly & efficient. He immediately got us a new unit. We stayed for two nights and after the first night, they did not even come to refresh our rooms. We had to go ask for towels, and the girl motioned where we could pick them up from and said just leave our dirty towels on the floor and they’ll get them the next day. we had to empty our own trash because they didn’t come refresh the room. For the amount of money we paid they could’ve at least done that. To add insult to injury there was a man checking in who had a rate to almost $100 a night less than ours. The only other good thing I can say is that the beds were pretty comfortable.

There were bugs in our shower coming out of the seam where the shower walls connect. We stayed only one night and when we checked out and informed the hotel about the bugs they didn't seem to care. When we checked in the person that checked us in didn't have much to say. Not very welcoming. Almost $300 night for a very mediocre hotel. We'd find another place to stay next time.

We could not stay we had to leave due to a severe and overwhelming odor upon arrival. When I entered the room, I was immediately struck by a strong chemical smell that was clearly being used to mask another, more concerning odor. The intensity of the smell hit me in the face the moment the door opened. Within seconds, my eyes began to water, and I experienced a sharp nausea that made it physically impossible to remain inside the space. The reaction was so immediate and intense that I was forced to exit the room almost instantly. We were forced to find other accommodations and the Seasider refused a refund.

This is like a new facility, everything is so new and clean. Though it says no breakfast, it has plenty coffee, muffins, and sweets, fruits. The area is so quite, and it only takes 15 min walk to downtown Bar Harbor. We love it.

The ada room i had dix not have a seat in the shower. You will have to be able to stand. The room has a ramp to get to the doir. It does get a bit tight in the room with a wheelchair. Brakfast is cereal and a muffin. They do have fruit and juice and snake bats out all the time for guests. Close to park entrance. Restaurants and shoping a couple miles away. No bus goes down town from motel and parking downtown is pretty bad in summer. The place is ok to stay.

The Seasider is by no means a bad property. I would rate it 4 out of 5 stars for an older tourist town. The staff is excellent, and the rooms are spacious. The location is the best part about the motel, your right near the heart of bar harbor and right next to acadia national park. The property itself is a little old and in need of a better renovation, so be warned. However it is clean, the surrounding area is excellent and parking is excellent. Showers are TIIIIINY!!!! So be ready for that.

Perfect End to Our Maine Vacation

We were in Sullivan for the week at an Air bnb and we decided to end our trip with a night in Bar Harbor. We've stayed in this hotel twice before in previous years and it's been nicely renovated since. We love that it is dog friendly and within walking distance from downtown Bar Harbor restaurants and shops. The hotel staff was extremely friendly and welcoming. The complimentary water, breakfast foods, and snacks were a nice plus. Everything was clean and the check-in/check-out was efficient. We were able to check into our hotel rooms early which was great because we were in the area in the early afternoon.

Definitely will be back

The staff at the front desk were welcoming and accommodating. Our room was clean and comfortable. The location was what drew us into the hotel, walking distance to the center of bar harbor. Added bonus for us was it being pet friendly.
