Top Downeast Scenic Railroad Hotel Reviews

Colonial Inn Ellsworth

10/10 Excellent

"I highly recommend this hotel as an anchor stay for exploring the Bar Harbor area (Mount Desert Island) and the north-eastern coast of Maine. Compare with the hotels in Bar Harbor, tourists in the Ellsworth area are not locked into the expensive and busy shops in the small town. Though Colonial Inn is not the scale as those hotel chains, its management is highly efficient. The rooms are generally larger and cleaner. Utilities and furniture inside are in good conditions. Last but not least, I spent way less than those hotels of the same level in Bar Harbor area."

Hampton Inn Ellsworth/Bar Harbor

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent"

Stone Park

House near Acadia National Park

Atlantic Coast Inn

8/10 Good

"Parking was ample. Room was clean. We did not interact with staff in person but only via phone and text"

Downtown Ellsworth Stay, Easy Access to Acadia & Bar Harbor (63)

10/10 Excellent

"Vrbo exceptionally clean and a short drive to Acadia Gateway Center where you can catch the shuttle to all trails in the park. Daryl’s Vrbo is just blocks from Main St. where you can find great food at Finn’s Irish pub. Gateway staff at information center were very helpful. Take the shuttles to avoid all the traffic. Rent e-bikes to ride the carriage roads. Trails are well marked! Loved our stay at Daryl’s and our visit to Arcadia National Park!"

Hawthorn Extended Stay by Wyndham Ellsworth / Bar Harbor

10/10 Excellent

"Clean, comfortable with a solid complimentary breakfast."

Newly Renovated Acadia Apartment Maple Street

10/10 Excellent

"This apartment is beautiful. It looks as if it were just finished a week ago. Check in and check out are effortless. Hosts communicated effectively and provided great local tips. This is truly a gem. Kitchen was will stocked even though we didn't use it. Everything there you need to cook for a large family. Nicest accomodations on our entire trip. We would stay again. Don't miss out."
