We had a lovely stay at The Primrose. The staff was courteous, friendly and helpful. The breakfasts were outstanding, with two options each morning. Each afternoon freshly made cookies and dessert bars were available from approx. 3-7 pm. We stayed for 6 nights, and the options were different each day. Coffee and tea were available all day. We stayed in a Deluxe King room - it was clean, and bed was really, really comfortable - we slept amazing. The Primrose is located in a great spot - a quiet area, and able to walk to downtown Bar Harbor, where you’ll find great restaurants, bars, and companies for lobster/seal/whale watching tours, or bike/kayak rentals. Our reason for coming to Bar Harbor was to hike and bike in Acadia National Park, and we were able to drive to the Visitors Center or most of the trailheads within 10 minutes. The Primrose far exceeded my expectations, and I would highly recommend to my friends and family.

I am glad i chose the Primrose Inn, all of my expectations were met. Warm welcome by staff, nice and cozy room, good breakfast, tasty… the property is quaint, but it had all the amenities of a modern house. Afternoon tea with baked goodies are a nice addition… walking distance to the village center, close to the entrance of acadia national park…

Accessibility to the main street, accessibility to Arcadia Park, the market, walking paths around this place, quiet and peaceful, and all the staff at this place were people who truly enjoyed their work. If I go to Arcadia again, I will definitely stay there.

We arrived during off season in February. Check in was easy and our room was beautiful. The room was quiet and the bed was comfortable. Breakfast was delicious each morning and coffee was always ready as soon as we woke up. Best bed and breakfast that I have ever stayed in.

The staff was super friendly and helpful. This was the first Bed & Breakfast I ever stayed at and it really was lovely. The only bad thing was there was this annoying tapping. I’m not sure if it was the pipes or what it was. Other than that the inn was very charming and I would definitely stay there again.

We spent 2 nights at the Primrose at the end of October and wished it could have been 2 weeks! Our room was spotless and spacious, with a very comfortable bed. Th breakfasts were amazing, and the small touches like Halloween candy and cookies with tea in the afternoon added to the overall welcoming environment of the Inn. We would highly recommend it, and thank the staff for their gracious hospitality.

Staff was great. Breakfast was very good. Our problem was our room. Got the impression through the web site our room would have been much nicer for what we paid. King size bed was comfortable but took up the whole room. Literally had to walk sideways to get around the room. There was another room that had a window air conditioner in it and a small trundle like bed in it with a hole in the wall. For $500/ night, not worth it.

The King bed was comfortable in our room. We enjoyed the living area of the Inn in front of the fireplace. I think softer lighting in the bedroom would make the room more cozy. Also the sitting area in the room could use more comfortable chairs. Overall excellent facility.

Excellent location to restaurants and shopping. Our room was clean and pretty. Bed was very comfortable! pillows not so much. Comfortable chairs in room. The breakfast was delicious!! You got to choose from two options. The staff was super friendly and helpful. My only complaint was not having a fridge in my room. They had one small universal fridge for entire place. They did have ice machine and water refilling station. I would definitely go back if in the bar harbor area.

We unexpectedly wanted to extend our stay and our hotel could not accomodate us. Thus, we lucked out and got a night at The Primrose. Wow! What a great place. I only wish we had booked here for our whole trip. Everyone was so nice. The room was great, what a comfortable bed. It is so clean. We even had a porch with a porch swing right out our bedroom door. The afternoon snacks were delicious, but that breakfast! They were serving Lemon Ricotta Pancakes with a Rasberry Composte or a Mushroom Pancetta Frittata. My wife had the frittata and I had the pancakes. Both were great. They were served with fruit and outstanding potatoes. They also served an almond poppyseed bread that was so moist. Topped everything off with some Blueberry coffee (regular was available as well). This is a little gem hidden in Bar Harbor. We hope to come back, but, next time spend our entire stay here.

Beautifull inn, walking distance to "downtown" Bar Harbor. Staff was very helpful and friendly, the room large and in good taste. Though quaint, the 2 faucet setup in the bathroom sink is inconvenient. Other than that - excellent choice!
