Stayed here 6 nights in October of 2012, literally a week after my husband got home from a 10-month deployment. We decided to take a random road trip and thought Bar Harbour would be the perfect couples getaway that we needed. I found the Robbins Motel online, and after seeing such great reviews and prices, decided to book! It's a... More

My boyfriend and I stayed here for 3 nights this past summer. We were a little intimidated by the hotel prices in Bar Harbor, so we decided to give the Robbins a try. We are the kind of couple that doesn't spend a whole lot of time in the hotel room, because we are busy exploring. If that's you, then... More

I thought it was a great deal. My wife didn't think it was as clean as she wished it had been. It's definitely a budget hotel. But if you're going to be out and about all day, this is a great place to crash. We'd both stay here again.

I subscribe what most of the people have said. This is a great deal for those looking for a clean and comfortable place to sleep. Although the room was close to the main road, we barely hear the traffic noise. I totally recommend this place. For sure, if I'm lucky enough to be back in Maine I would stay here... More

We booked in advance, and it was the cheapest choice we found. Small, basic room and bathroom, but very clean and the daily service was thorough. There's no phone, no breakfast and no fridge, so you have to plan for that elsewhere, but that shouldn't be a reason not to stay there. Would definitely stay there again and recommend to... More

This motel is for people who want to spend their money on activities other than a room to sleep in. The October cost was $45/night, which is phenomenal. Well, for that price, you do not get luxury. The rooms are paneled in rather cheap wood and are very basic. However, our room was plenty spacious and exceptionally clean. The bed... More

I can't add much of anything to what has already been written. Price was $45. Room was tiny and spotlessly clean. Front desk was friendly and polite. Was it luxurious? No. Was breakfast served? No. I had nothing to complain about.

Booked 2/3 weeks in advance and was told only rooms at the front were available - close to the road. It was fairly loud during the day and in the morning, but you could get a decent night's sleep. Rooms are incredibly basic, but very clean and with a nice bathroom and comfortable bed. Free wi-fi and good service from... More

We got there and it was booked full, owner was very helpful, helped us find other places to stay near by. We appreciated this level of service and can see why they are so successful. Traveling in the northeast, food, lodge gas ect is very expensive and it was nice to see a place focussed on value !!!

We stayed here for 4 nights while visiting the Bar Harbor region. The Robbins Motel is a great value for this area in the high season. The rooms are small and lack most of the basic things you find in most hotels, but the service is extra great and Jack and Linda, the owners, are just terrific in making your... More
