Top Thunder Hole Hotel Reviews

Seasider Motel

10/10 Excellent

"This is the basic motel that is the perfect base for exploring Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. Why? - free parking - excellent location that is only an eight minutes stroll from the center of Bar Harbor. - you were located nearly at the entrance of Acadia National Park. - there is free bottled water and coffee served all day and night - the rooms are basic, but have hard surface flooring that is very clean (no dirty carpeting)… A comfortable bed… and a very clean bathroom with great shower pressure. While the other hotels are fancier in the area… This was perfect for the price In the evening, I recommend taking the four- minute drive over to the Blue Nose Inn for an old-school opulent bar that has piano music nearly every evening"

Main Street Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Thank you it was incredible"

Bluenose Inn - Bar Harbor Collection

8/10 Good

"We are a family of four with two teenagers and stayed here two nights. The Inn seems to be geared towards an older crowd, based on the other guests there and the decor of the rooms. Nevertheless, the suite and bathroom area are very large, which was appreciated. The room seemed to be very clean also. The reception attitude at check-in was a bit cold but we quickly settled in afterwards. We did appreciate the live pianist in the lounge each evening—he is talented and the drinks are affordable. We did not take advantage of the breakfast there but did appreciate the hotel staff recommendation of Choco-latte."

Newly Updated Island Cottage - Walk to the Beach & Acadia National Park

10/10 Excellent

"Jenny's place is fantastic! As other reviews note:* Very clean, comfortable and smartly organized home* Well equipped kitchen* Great location relative to the Acadia NP* Jenny texted to ensure that we got checked in smoothly, as she was updating thingsWe had a short stay, really wish we had more time there.A very quiet, peaceful part of the island. Fantastic access to Acadia NP. A pretty short drive to Bar Harbor and Northeast Harbor as well.Regarding vehicle access to Acadia: a reminder that parking is extremely limited, especially in the center (Jordan Pond, etc), so please check into the Island Explorer free transit system before you go."
