Hampton Inn Ellsworth Bar Harbor

“Friendly, helpful staff, great location close to Acadia National Park, & lots of amenities!”

Great family vacation hotel with comfortable rooms, nice breakfast buffet and great unexpected amenities like ice coffee buffet, warm complimentary cookies and 24 hour coffee and cold water. Staff was wonderful from front desk to housekeeping!

“Well appointed room, unique Iced Coffee Bar, surprisingly varied breakfast options”

Our stay at this 2010 built Ellsworth/Bar Harbor Hampton was for just one night Thursday June 24 for three people. Despite it being a weekday the bill was $343.35 as the tourist season had started. We had a rented a vehicle and the Bar Harbor Hampton was priced even higher than this one. We choose Hamptons because of the Hilton ownership oversight, although individually they are privately managed so quality will vary. We came from Minnesota an had just spent three nights at the Portland Downtown-Waterfront Hampton and were in Bar Harbor for a cruise and to check out Arcadia National Park. As it turns out we should have spent the three nights here and just one at the sketchy Portland Hampton. My girlfriend's daughter insists on separate beds for all of us. One great thing about Hamptons is that a rollaway bed added to a double queen room is not an issue, although the quality of the bed itself varies greatly by location. Here our requested rollaway was waiting for us with linens and pillows, and it was a decent one unlike the broken one we got in Portland that also didn't have a pillow or top sheet. My girlfriend actually commented on how nice the room was, a rare nod of approval as we are both a bit cynical. The thermostat had its own remote, the Hilton app actually worked on the TV if I remember right, there was an ice bucket and even a couple mini recycling bins. The view was just the local shopping mall, but that's not what we got the room for. One slight disappointment was being refused the token Hilton Silver Level membership benefit of free bottles of water on arrival. Maybe this isn't a 'select' Hampton. The workout room here was large and modern, unlike many Hampton workout rooms. The pool was also well kept. The normally no frills Hampton breakfast was way above par at this property. There was an abundance of choices and healthy options in bakery, hot and cold items, fresh fruit, toppings, and beverages. This included dairy free and gluten free options like Silk almond milk and Udi's gluten free muffins. See the image postings. This was an especially welcome sight after the sparse Portland Hampton breakfast bar of the previous three days. A surprising discovery I got on checking out the lobby after unpacking was the 'Iced Coffee Bar'. The receptionist told us they were the only Hampton to have one. It had a nice sign, coffee container, a dozen Monin syrups, creamer, ice bucket, cups, stir sticks, and napkins. See the image posting. My girlfriend and daughter planned to try it before we left early the next morning as I had understood from the receptionist it was available 24 hours. Unfortunately, it was taken down during breakfast. I'm not sure the girls even saw it. Other then missing out on the Iced Coffee Bar and not getting the token Hampton Silver Membership bottled water perk, this may have been our best Hampton stay of the dozen or so different Hampton properties we have tried. It should be the textbook model in management for other Hamptons to follow.

“Clean hotel in midst Ellsworth”

Right across from grocery store, near fast foods, walkable, easy access to highway, 30+ minutes drive to Bar Harbor ME.

“Expensive and needs upkeep”

Stayed here on a trip to Acadia National Park. Everything in the area is double what the rest of the state is. A nice hotel but, for what they charge there was a lot that lacked.

Stayed here on a trip to Acadia National Park. Everything in the area is double what the rest of the state is. A nice hotel but, for what they charge there was a lot that lacked. The beds were very worn down as were the linens. Black and pink mold spots in the shower and the sink drained extremely slow. Pool was nice but for an indoor pool was too cold.
