Fantastic location, very well appointed-PHENOMENAL breakfast, but street noise in front facing rooms meant very poor sleep for my husband and I. Front desk (Camila/Camile) was so very helpful and helped us relocate for the second night. She really went above and beyond and was so kind. This allowed us a MUCH better 2nd nights sleep. Highly recommend and would stay again in a heartbeat, just NOT in a street facing room.

From what we were told, this property is relatively new. As such, we found that the property needed some refreshing, specifically with the hall carpets (several stains, marks, etc.) were evident. The rooms, though clean, could use a little more decorative touches. Our room was not cleaned every day, leaving us with no towels, tissues, etc. However, the staff was magnificent! Complimentary breakfast was incredible from a selection and taste basis. Daily homemade cookies and coffee were great. Location to town was prime. On-site complimentary parking was also a big plus. Overall, we would stay here again.

The hotel is located right in Bar Harbor, just a very short walk to the town center. Since most hotels in Maine tend to be quite old, this property was a wonderful surprise—it’s relatively new, and the rooms are both spacious and clean. They also provide complimentary breakfast, which was actually quite good. Highly recommended!

First of all, Laura at the front desk was an absolute gem!!! When we checked in, she made sure we parked in the appropriate spot so we didn't get a citation. There is a lot of city parking for travelers all over the town and next to the hotel. That was a big help. She also had housekeeping dry my clothes as my suitcase got rained on at the airport. What a lovely gesture. The breakfast each morning was so tasty and great coffee. The set menu had a variety of items sure to satisfy anyone. You were also given a muffin to start that was moist and delicious! The hallways and our room always smelled fresh. We opted out of housekeeping during our stay, but even still the room remained fresh smelling. We really loved the location and all the amenities and would definitely stay there again. This is a small property, which we loved.

2nd time here so we like it. You can beat the location. We used to stay at the resort on wwst St but got tired of the noise and children running up and down the hallways. The hotel is super clean and the beds are super comfy. They serve a lovely complimentary breakfast. Dinner is comfort food standards but having the restaurant in house is convenient. Dinner is ok but do is most of the dining in Bar Harbor.

Great 4-night stay at the Pathmaker Hotel! The room was huge and clean and I loved the furnishings and toiletries. The front desk staff was friendly and attentive. Breakfast was delicious and the service was fast & friendly - lots of great options and the muffins included each day were wonderful. Parking was easy and plentiful with a garage under the hotel and additional parking across the street. We tried to go to dinner one night at the hotel restaurant but there was no host/hostess to be found for about 5-10 minutes so we went elsewhere (the French restaurant across the streak is fabulous!) Otherwise it was a great stay and we would definitely return.

We had an excellent stay and would absolutely stay here again. The hotel is exceptionally clean, modern, and thoughtfully designed. If the traditional “old quilt on every bed” Maine aesthetic isn’t your style, this property offers a much more contemporary experience without sacrificing comfort.

The rooms were surprisingly quiet and well insulated—we never heard noise from neighboring rooms or the hallway, which is rare and a huge plus for light sleepers.

The location was perfect. We were able to walk easily to Bar Harbor’s shops and restaurants as well as the sand bar leading to Bar Island. Parking was convenient and hassle-free in the covered garage below the hotel.

The food, cocktails, and overall bar experience exceeded our expectations and were among the highlights of our stay. Combined with the friendly staff, spotless rooms, and unbeatable location, this made for a fantastic visit. We’d return in a heartbeat.

Our stay at Pathmaker was top tier. Excellent service from staff and front desk, very clean and spacious rooms. Serving breakfast and dinner as well, they have parking on site as well.
The location is perfect, not in the middle of town but a few steps away to avoid the commotion and close to other cool shops cafes and stores.
Overall highly recommend this hotel when in Bangor
Also big highlight is the coffee and tea available 24hrs in the front

Excellent stay overall! The staff was exceptional—friendly, helpful, and welcoming throughout our visit. The location is perfect for exploring downtown Bar Harbor on foot, and the breakfast was delicious each morning.

A couple of things to be aware of: if your room faces the street, expect some road and pedestrian noise, especially during busy times. Also, blackout curtains would be a great improvement. With the sun rising before 5:00 a.m. in the summer, the room gets quite bright very early. Despite those minor issues, we had a wonderful stay and would happily return.

Very large well appointed room. Great location in town. The made to order breakfast menu was weak with poor choices. The quiche was not good. Should have asked the staff to just make me eggs and toast, regular hotel breakfast buffets are much better. Some traffic noise, but that didn’t bother us too much.

We booked a spacious King room on the 3rd floor overlooking Cottage street. The bed and pillows were very comfortable and the bathroom very clean and roomy. It looked newly remodeled and was tastefully decorated! Breakfast was included in the room rate and offered several options which were quite delicious and the waitstaff were all outstanding. The hotel is conveniently located close to the waterfront with tons of shopping and restaurants all around yet just a short drive to Acadia National Park. There is onsite underground parking in addition to overflow parking across the street. I was very pleased and highly recommend a stay at this lovely boutique hotel!

Very beautiful and clean hotel. Everything looks brand new and well maintained. Staff were extremely polite and friendly. The restaurant food and service was superb as well. The only reason why I didn’t give it 5 stars is because the room we stayed in was too loud for me. We were located right next to a stairwell that the door was being opened and closed repeatedly, plus the room was located right above the bustling street. The traffic noise started before 5am and the conversations of the foot traffic went well into the late night making it difficult to go to sleep. I would recommend staying at this hotel, but if I were to stay again I would specify that I want an interior room away from the street and any stairs.

The property was modern and clean. Staff was friendly. Breakfast was very good. The beds were comfortable. There is free parking underneath the hotel and if that is full, there is a lot almost directly across the street. I would recommend this place.

My daughter and I did a Mother’s Day trip and stayed at the Pathmaker Hotel. It was absolutely divine. The little Italian restaurant attached to it was beautiful. Morning coffee, breakfast, the music playing excellent. The staff was kind, helpful. The warm cookies at the end of the day with the tea and fresh coffee… I could go on and on! OH! Centrally located, the perfect little spot. 10/10

The staff were friendly and helpful. Having dedicated parking areas helped tremendously. Centrally located meant walking everywhere was easy and short. The rooms looked freshly remodeled and were very clean. The attached restaurant is terrific, and the included breakfast is sit down with a waiter and you order from a menu. Not the buffet like other places.
