My best friend and I decided to take a vacation to Bar Harbor when nobody else wanted to go anywhere last year. We found this place online and I must say, I fell in love! We had the Cadillac Suite (top floor) and the architecture and layout were simply brilliant! I love it so much and miss it every day.... More

We stayed here for the second portion of our Bar Harbor visited. If we had known how wonderful it was, we would have stayed here the entire time. A beautiful, beautiful inn with excellent service. The rooms were gorgeous. Ours had stained glass between the bathroom and bedroom. Everything was exceptionally clean. The breakfasts were amazing. The Inn Keeper was... More

Our room w/ private bath was very nice, clean, spacious tub/shower bathroom. The room was small, with a very comfortable bed. We did not go there to spend time in our room so it was adequate. The food was excellent. Eric and Michelle are the owners. Michelle 's breakfasts were delicious with something different all all three mornings. Also available... More

This will be a quick review. I have never reviewed a hotel twice but The Holbrook House deserves another round of applause. We decided to take a quick two day trip to Bar Harbor to check out the fall colors at Acadia National Park. The off-season rates and the expectation of another great stay prompted my wife and I to...

Lovely appointed rooms and very clean. Food was excellent. Michelle is a great cook and puts out a goody spread from 3 to 9pm daily,including lemonade and coffee. Our room, the rose room was very small with a private bath across the hall. It was secluded with a curtain and plush robes are also provided. The bed and linens were... More

I had a very nice stay here. I wanted a place that was quiet, charming, comfortable, and clean. This was it! The rooms are very comfortable, the place is spic and span. They serve an excellent breakfast of all home made stuff, and a great afternoon tea. I had 2 great nights of sleeping with the windows wide open!

Our two night stay at Holbrook house was delightful. Our hosts, Michelle and Eric, made sure everything was picture perfect and the yummy breakfasts could not have been nicer. It is indeed a short walk to town and the Acadia National Park, just a mile away, was a wonder to behold for this Florida girl!

This is our favorite B&B in Bar Harbor, and it is a true value in any location. Great accommodations, great food, and great hosts -- all at a great price! You will not be disappointed. Eric, Michelle, Susan, and all of the staff work very, very hard to please. If you have ever stayed at Holbrook House, then you know... More

Usually when we come to Bar Harbor, we stay in our RV. However, since we recently sold said RV, we opted for a Bed and Breakfast right downtown for our most recent stay. Upon arrival, we had only 15 minutes to wait for our room to be ready and we were at least two hours ahead of check-in time. We... More

I love this B&B, lovely house, nice rooms, very sweet hosts. Everything they recommended turned out to be great! The restaurants, the running trail... Good location too, mintues away to walk to the main street. The only thing I personal not fancy is the breakfast, it is a little bit towards the sweet side, my my type, but well prepared.... More
