The Bayview was definitely a few steps above they typical hotel. My wife and I spent our honeymoon there during the second week of June, which meant we could take advantage of the pre-season rates. We arrived very late due to plane delays and cancellations, but I contacted the hotel to let them know and they had everything ready, waiting... more

After reading stellar reviews of The Bayview on this website, and with the so-so reviews of other hotels in the area, we booked a night in a "Townhome" for our family of five. The hotel has a "family suite" in the main building which was occupied (at $460/night) so we took what was billed as a three bedroom townhouse for... more

This is a great little spot in Bar Harbor, not at all far from the bustle of downtown. With a great view of the bay, the staff is SUPER friendly and helpful. Housekeeping was also excellent. The decor in the townhouses might remind you a little bit of grandma's house, but it adds to the overall cozy charm. I would... more

We booked two family rooms at the Bayview for two nights in June 2008. The front desk staff was friendly and efficient and our rooms were very clean and nice. Each room had a balcony overlooking the water and a pull out sofa. The hotel provides free shuttle service into Bar Harbor which was great, and everyone we met at... more

We stayed at the Bayview for our anniversary, and it didn't disappoint. The view was spectacular from our room. The room itself was clean, appealing and spacious. The staff was friendly and very helpful. We took advantage of the shuttle to town to avoid the insanity of parking during the holiday. I must emphasize how wonderful the food was. Breakfast... more

We were staying at the Holiday Regency and had such rudeness from the management we decided to go down the street and checked into the Bayview Inn. The management was extremely friendly, the rooms spotless as well as a beautiful view of the ocean. We went down to a complimentary breakfast and to our surprise they came around and took... more

What a wonderful place! Our spacious room was beautifully decorated, the view across the water was lovely, and the breakfasts were delicious! The staff was outstanding -- Jen, Judy & Debbie, Trish, Al, Sue, Laura, and Nora (I undoubtedly forgot someone....forgive me!!) -- and they worked together in a friendly and cheerful manner which made their guests feel welcomed and... more

It was unseasonably warm in late Sept. when I checked in to the Bayview. My room A/C was not working and I was uncomfortably warm. There was a fan in the closet and the outside air was cooler than the room that eve. so I was opening the door to the balcony to blow fresh air into the room. When... more
