April 20th (under construction) We arrived at what we thought was the Holiday Inn Bar Harbor, but were instead met with an eerie silence. The signs were covered, as if hiding a secret. Construction vehicles sat abandoned like relics of a long-lost project. Not a soul in sight… until, in the distance, one friendly construction worker emerged from the shadows with a kind smile. There’d been no email, no phone call, no text, nothing to tell us the hotel was under renovation. Finally, a sign greeted us with cold indifference: “Your reservation has been upgraded to our sister property.” No directions, only questions and a phone number that, when dialed, offered no answer on the other end.

Grateful to have stayed due to limited options in Bar Harbor. Not grateful for the lack courtesy from staff and, most importantly, the lack of an AC that could pull moisture out our room. In desperation, we pulled one of the many dehumidifiers from the hallway into our room. Eventually, it became comfortable. Otherwise, the room was fine.

I would not stay there again. The resort was closing 5 days after we were there. Upon reservations we should have been informed. There was quite a few things your hotel was out of, because they did not reorder to take card of the guests that were there. It is unfortuante that guests at the end of the season were not considered important. I did not receive my $50.00 deposit back either. I was told that the resort was closed, and may be resolved next year. Horrible. If I could I would request the whole amount back. The food was awful, could not get cream and sugar for coffee. Several guests and I waited for assistance for just a cup of coffee. There should be changes when you continue to register guest, knowing tou are closing for the season. Susan Biring.
